Ditto Dana Perrino.
Kevin Phillips and Harry Dent who created Nixon's "Southern Strategy" of race baiting and whisper campaigns taught Lee Atwater all of their nasty tricks. Lee Atwater personally schooled KKKarl Rove in underhanded politics. Atwater did, at least, call all of his political enemies from his deathbed to apologize for all the irredeemable damage he had done. KKKarl has yet to repent of anything.

When Rove starts attacking republicans it's a pretty safe bet that they are subhuman and the dregs of society. I'd say he's spot on, if not a bit restrained.

Just curious, does Obama's use of executive orders bother you as much? I find people who agree with his policies are perfectly comfortable with his circumventing Congress.

Absolutely. And, it isn't the number of them that bothers me, but the nature of some of them.

Rove is Establishment. Rove is the Reason we got Romney against all Conservatives wishes, with changing the rules over and over. Then every non-establishment conservative(the silent majority) stayed home. Mitt " I'm a Progressive" Romney was never going to get their vote. No matter how much the media said he would. Rove is the reason, Obama sits in the whitehouse today.

What is the difference between an establishment conservative and a non-establishment conservative? Is a non-establishment one that has no experience?

A Big Government knows best, Socialist Progressive(Mitt Romney)
v.
A Limited Government get out of the way, Constitutional Conservative(Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee)


Basically those that have no grassroots support, because they represent the banks not the people, and those that have grassroots support and have big thoughts and ideas of ending the fed and the IRS, to represent the people(also called the silent majority)


When a Constitutional Conservative with big ideas decides to run, the silent majority comes to life.
In the past it was republican progressive v. the democrat progressive, and the silent majority stayed silent. Since 2010 they have been heard more and more, as more and more Constitutional Conservatives make their way out of the silent majorities shadows.

Uh, of course he's biased just like Debbie Wasserman Schultz is biased. Why are you surprised?
