Mitt Romney Named John McCain's Veep by Karl Rove
Karl Rove -- who, for some reason, keeps on getting to give his wizened opinion despite it being consistently less than wise -- thinks that John McCain could do a lot worse than pick the personality-disabled Mitt Romney as his running mate...
"Romney is already vetted by the media, strong executive experience both in business and in government, has an interesting story to tell with saving the U.S. Olympics, and also helps McCain deal with the economy, because he can speak with the economy with a fluency that McCain doesn't have," Rove told "Fox News Sunday."
Mitt Romney can speak with the economy?! That's amazing!
Actually, now that I think about it, it kinda makes sense. It's probably like the way that R2-D2 can plug his little probe into any machine or computer in the galaxy and talk it into doing whatever Luke Skywalker asks him to do.
If that's the case, then McCain would be an idiot not to name him as his running mate.
But Rove, a FOX News analyst, added that Romney is not without flaws. "He's been a little uneven in his performance," Rove said.
Yeah, that's true, but you can't really blame that on Romney. That's more his programmer's fault. He probably just needs an update on his operating system.

Rove also was groomed by Bennett, from Utah and worked for Bennett. Bennett is also the one who sent Rove to G.W. Bush to be his 'friend'.
Bennett has been pulling strings from the background, unseen.
These guys would be a total disaster. Mutt and Jeff. Oy.
Sorry. National Security takes Brain, not Brawn.
Defense is more than paying our tax dollars to the military industrial complex that Eisenhower warned about.
Defense means intelligence.
Cheney, Rummy, Bush, they blundered. With a capital B. Chicken hawks, all of them. Not a decent day spent in the trenches. Our fair boys are out there. Dying. While these guys run the show and spend billions of our tax dollars. We can't afford to give a poor child health care, but we can afford to equip foreign contractors (no bid?) who don't pay into our system, who don't answer to our laws, and who don't give a damn whether or not we get attacked again.
Where is Bin Laden? Did they forget about him in their never ending quest for the next oil deal?
Where are all our solar power panels on our rooftops? Why are we not self sufficient, selling our sunshine from state to shining state? We could be helping our brothers and sisters...who can't afford power...with our surplus.
Where is our surplus, by the way?
Put Clinton in charge of that, please, when you become president, Mr. Obama.
I think it's name kismet - I think Obama will defeat Osama.
I switched from voting for Hillary when I heard Obama talk about actually going after our enemies, and sussing out Bin Laden in Pakistan. Why did we let him get away in the first place? I bet Richard Clarke would know. Or any of those guys on Frontline. They had bombed Al Quada, and were moving in on Bin Laden in Afghanistan. But Bush ADD'd off into Iraq.
Now we're in Iraq, stirring up a pot of carnage, just to protect the pipeline for the speculators. And for what? So they can charge us $5 a gallon at the pump? So we have to choose whether or not to drive around in 109 degree weather with a toddler in tow, who's getting a heat fever, or risk running out of gas with the airco on?
And who's got another $75 to fill up the tank? So where do we go now, Mr. Bush? Perhaps Cheney and his back room energy buddies could answer that.
Something's got to give. We've put the fox in charge of the henhouse. The very people who are supposed to be protecting us against fixed markets, monopolies, abuses of power, are in charge of it. Hoover administration all over again, and we need an FDR to come in and clean up the economic carnage.
Carnage everywhere.
From oversight on lead toys to mercury in our water, air, fish. God help us all if they continue to wreak havoc on our planet.
Global Warming, Mr. Fox Channel guy, is a national security issue. If we all die in some weird weather catastrophe, Halliburton's money won't do much for us. Cheney's probably got some golden parachute waiting for him to take him to the underground bunker or whatever, and he can hide from Google and all that, but what about the rest of us? Do we have a right to liberty and privacy?
Nope. Sorry. After we artificially hiked up the gas prices to put the squeeze on the American people to allow us to drill, we also pressed through a spying surveillance thingy, so now we can listen in on your phone calls and stuff. Don't be alarmed if you hear some clicking in the background, every once in a while, or maybe even some interference. It's just us doing some tests on the emergency spy system. Eventually, we'll know everything about you, just like that Orwell book, and you won't even care because you'll be hooked on Prozac, or some other thing to numb you out and create apathy.
Okay, I think that's enough for now. Vote for Liberty. Free us from the pusher a the pump. A fixed market is not a free market. Vote Obama.
PS: McCain is a sellout, to the very people who called him "crazy."
Speaking of selling America out, and let's not forget that China owns us now, why isn't it easier to get solar panels? Why can't we stimulate some kind of low interest loans to get us started up, and then, once the 'lectric company is paying *me* checks, I can start paying back the loan?
oh, silly me. One word. Coal. Those back room energy dudes wouldn't take kindly to having millions of households suddenly self sufficient...so hope does spring eternal.
But speaking of an oppressive, fixed market, like oil, I wonder how long it will take for them to put the squeeze on the American people, until they cry uncle and let them drill. Hell, they'll even let them screw you twice, by subsidizing them and giving them a free lunch with YOUR tax dollars. Hell, my kids will still be paying for it when they're grandmothers...
Where are the small 4 cylinder, 4 door trucks that get 100 miles to the gallon!?
Come on America. You're supposed to be smart. You're supposed to care. You're supposed to be innovative. Create a system better than the combustible engine, for God's sakes. What if we suddenly lost demand for oil in the U.S., or it dropped drastically. I guess Obama's hope is infectious.
And who says the right have faith locked up? There are other spiritual issues than abortion. What about vets, who come home to a crumbling vet hospital system? What about poor children? What would Jesus say if he saw people turing a blind eye to lead toys for our children and mercury in our tuna? Is Erin Brockovich all we have to keep our kids safe? Where are the FDA when salmonella is running rampant? Where are the overseers, who are supposed to crack down on cartels and price fixing gougers?
Help us, God. Vote Obama.
Can’t realistically imagine McCain selecting anyone other than Palin as his Veep!
Thanks, Karl, for the great suggestion, but I think it was Van Halen who first recommended "Running with the Devil" – so no points for originality.
This just in (Muncie Free Press) from Indiana's leading political analyst and commentator, Brian Howey:
"My Prediction: A month ago, I would have been comfortable predicting a McCain-Romney ticket. But if McCain wants to attract Hillary Clinton voters, he might look at young, attractive Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin who is creating considerable buzz these days. If I had to bet: McCain-Palin. At this point, I think the gender opportunity trumps geography."
If the needle's big enough, and you took one of NASA's launch pads, I bet the elephant could easily pass through!
Karl's very experienced with white elephants.
Rove's attempting to pass an elephant through the eye of a needle this election cycle with Romney as VP. Religious have served him well in the past.
I keep hoping that McCain will be smart and not choose Romney or Huckabee. We really do not need religious zealots in the White House anymore. Bush was a born again Christian and look at all he did that was so wonderful.
Like I'm not gonna run with a Star Wars analogy. Rove is with The Dark Side. The economy flows through him. He can speak to it. Hopefully he'll get cut down like Darth Maul.
At least with Romney as his running mate, everyone will be asleep by the time that McCain has to talk about his policy on Iraq.
But they will have to change the name of the "straight talk express" to the "deception cruiser".
