Yes, that Jason Leopold, he of the ROVE’S BEEN INDICTED! bombshell that wasn’t. Almost seven minutes to parse here but the highlight has to be Leopold responding to Gibby’s demand for proof of malfeasance with, “Why does he have to be indicted?”

Listen closely lest you miss the very, very, very belated acknowledgment that Truthout’s original Rove scoop was wrong. It comes at about 4:50 if you’re counting down.

The exit question Gibby forgot to ask: “Am I an insurgent?”

Grill him? No. Hit him with a grill? Yes.

Good. It wasn’t just me :-)

I’m looking at your headline: CNN Silky: Edwards/Obama could work

The fact that Silky thinks he could ever be president is nuts. Edwards/Osama = two boobs.

Blake on August 13, 2007 at 9:35 PM

Edwards/Osama = two boobs.

Blake on August 13, 2007 at 9:35 PM

So Edwards/Obama = Hillary?

Arrrgh, I’m such an absent-minded tool. Audio link added.

In my defense, I’ve had a few.

Jason is just ignorant! That is just sad!

He said a few, as in bottles/cans not a few kegs.

so many people dont like him so there obviously has to be something.

so now the justice department should be run by polls along with war actions?

CaptainObvious on August 13, 2007 at 10:16 PM

That is just sad!
Pam on August 13, 2007 at 9:50 PM

I absolutely loved it!!

FINALLY,at least ONE idiot got his ass whooped!!

Mcguyver on August 13, 2007 at 10:50 PM

I’ve clicked on every link and still can’t find the audio. Any(non invasive) suggestions?

Blitz on August 13, 2007 at 11:09 PM

It’s the very first link in the post, Blitz.

Allahpundit on August 13, 2007 at 11:10 PM

Thanks Allah. I kept getting a “plug in” error,but stuck it through this time.

Blitz on August 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM

If you don’t have whatever plug-in (flash?) they use (to play the youtube pseud-video version) there’s a direct link below it to an mp3 audio-only file that should work for most anyone.

johnny dollar on August 13, 2007 at 11:35 PM

I also got a “plug-in error” but after clicking through the “OK” buttons it came through just fine. As for the post, John did a great job of exposing this nut case for what he really is. Thank you John!

god this guy’s nuts

Defector01 on August 14, 2007 at 12:19 AM

What about Jason Alexander?

His recent “Rovermort” parody is clearly the real reason Rove left.

Carl couldn’t take a former Seinfeld veteran making such an ass of himself, and wanted to spare us the possibility of Elaine or Jerry doing the same sort of satiric seppuku to their drifting ‘careers’.

(Plus, Rove wanted to be free to snag a juicy role for himself in the upcoming sequel “Balls of Fury II“.)

profitsbeard on August 14, 2007 at 12:51 AM

I don’t care who is the president’s advisor as long as it is not some jihadist sympathizer.

Why is everyone so whacked out *meaning the libs* about rove? Seriously..they give the guy wayy too much credit. And as a parent, I can tell you, I can’t imagine having a husband that was gone all the time…I’d only allow it for a few years as a wife, and she’s been more than a tad patient. Time for him to come home..nothing to see here..move along.

Highrise on August 14, 2007 at 2:24 AM

I’m glad the little sh*tbreak is able to laugh about it.

Seixon on August 14, 2007 at 12:44 PM

Allah,

Why don’t you run your picture of Karl next to that of Rosie? Then you can have Rove vs. wave.
