I wouldn't be surprised to hear the next announcement.
As if these are "just jobs"
After reading a number of on-line news sources about the life and times of Karl Rove I have a better understanding of how and why he chose to fight dirty in life. Interestingly-he not only chose to fight dirty-his pride and penchant for teaching others how to fight dirty is more significant.
I don't think I could say anything not already known about his past life-it is full of sadness, surprises and betrayals. He learned to be sneaky and dirty during his college political years and instead of winning on merit seemed to find an easier way-look for a way to destroy the opponent, whether it is procedurally or negative information. Kind of like the school bully. If you can't be liked for good things be feared for the bad.
His mother committed suicide, his father announced he was gay and left. He discovered he was adopted after his mother died and he was an adult. If ever a man won the trifecta in trauma, I think he would be able to claim it.
Since college(which he never finished) he has grown and matured in his abilities to fight dirty. A smart person can do that.
I can understand his decision to take a road-a significant road. A smart man, he may have recognized and considered all avenues of gaining power. He found his most effective. We can't argue that it hasn't been. He has managed to aid in the dissection and reinterpretation of our most fundamental rights. He has taken a weak leader and made his imprint.
He has a reason to look for each "screw you" moment in politics.
The universe, in perfect alignment, waited for Karl Rove to develop and grow.
We needed him to shake us up-to evaluate our own morals and laws.We are doing that now.
Let's hope we make the right decisions.
