Out in liberal Blogistan, it’s being pointed out that the folks dispatched by Karl Rove to brief executive agencies on which Republicans to help claim their briefings were thank-yous to the political appointees at the various agencies.
This brings to mind one major question for me: Who on earth thinks a PowerPoint presentation about Republican congressmen is a great thank-you?? I may be as blue as they come, but if I write a great column, I bloody well don’t want Rahm Emmanuel to come over to the Advocate and show me the DNC family slideshow.
Coming up in the Rove aid testimony extravaganza: what else did they consider as thank-yous for the executive agencies? A handy Excel spreadsheet linking the number of Republican congressmen paying for prostitutes to the number of polyps up George Bush’s plumbing?
Gee, thanks Karl! Just what I was hoping for! Another portrait of Bob Dole in front of a stiff flag! You didn’t have to.
