Has Karl Rove ruined the country by making every conversation or issue "with us or against us?"?

Amen to that, but don't forget about Dick Cheney, he wants to start another Cold War; what came out of his disturbed mouth yesterday, towards the Russian Government, was more of the same tired, failed strategy, to think they can bully other countries. Hello, this bunch of characters in the White House can't even get Americans to agree with their ideology.

Americans. A dangerous precedent has been set by the recent criminal republicans that question any form of dissent and if you are brave enough to disagree with their ideology, you are labeled as anti-American, or subversive. This hysterical reaction starts with Bush and his Goons and trickles down to the local levels of government. Of course this is more pervasive in certain areas of the country, i.e. bible belt. Their will be a lot of healing needed with our next president as this one has caused our country serious damage with his flawed ideology. The deprogramming of America begins in 2008.

I totally agree with you. our president has caused us nothing but trouble and when he gets us out  of trouble he puts us right back in to worse trouble. we went to war with Iraq for no reason cause we thought they had WMD's but they don't! if we attacked all countries cause we thought they had WMD's this world would be underground! lets just get to the truth lets impeach bush!!!!!!!!!!

In one simple statement:  His policies are dangerous to the Constitution, the US, and the World.\n\nIt isn't hatred of an individual, it's disgust with bad foreign and domestic policy.

Unfortunately, the loathsome fat piggy-man who is karl rove will likely not be indicted (he'll certainly never spend a day in jail, which is where he deserves to spend ALL of his remaining days). I realize it likely came across as sheer spin when it was announced but I believe he relinquished some of his duties in large part to gin up the hateful ANP (my moniker for the GOP; I think you can guess what it stands for, literally) campaign to hold onto the House and Senate in the coming elections. Dirty, negative attack campaigns have been this swine's bread-and-butter for his entire wretchedly evil and deeply unworthy life. Honestly, he is one of a handful of truly evil people in this world over whose death I would quite literally celebrate by uncorking a bottle of champagne. I'm not proud to say that but my hatred for these despicable, criminal people who have caused so much death and destruction and trampled over our Constitution runs that deep.\n\nOh, and in answer to your titular question, while the vile rove resembles a particularly hideous suckling pig, he is not being slow-roasted. Alas, I only wish that it were so.

Yes I do! He's broken more laws than I can possibly count at the moment DURING HIS PRESIDENCY. It's just that simple.... He's worse than Nixon ever was.

I couldn't agree with you more.  It's not a matter of strong-minded democrats trying to trash the president because we are bitter about losing the election as most republicans would like to believe.  Look at the facts, this presidency is riddled with scandal, lies, and lost lives....when is it going to stop?  If anyone has ever traveled outside of the US, they know just how much other countries despise us.  It kind of makes you ashamed to be from America.

It is not the worst, merely another example of failed US foreign policy which has never changed.  The US has always been and remains the same: "Do whatever is in 'US interests', regardless of the consequences".  \n\nIf the US had two choices:\n1) Enact a policy that benefits both countries\n2) Enact a policy that benefits the US the same at the other but is detrimental to the other country\nThe US would ALWAYS choose the second.  It's a part of the "manifest destiny" crap, the US's selfish and self-appointed view that the world is here for its benefit.  \n\nAmericans, as a general rule, haven't figured out that other countries and other peoples have the same right to live freely and do what is in their own interests.  US policy of supporting dictators was the greatest cause of communism during the Cold War, and became the greatest cause of fundamentalist islam since the Cold War ended.\n\nThe US has and continues to support dictators and help topple democracies in many countries because the US thinks it will benefit more by supporting such regimes.  Perhaps in the short term it does, but in the long term such policies led to resentment and helped build extremism instead of democratic change which was violently repressed by said dictators with the help of the US:\n\n- Iran (a democracy before the US and UK helped the Shah into power)\n- Nicaragua (the Sandanista are going to be reelected democratially as they were before now that US interference is waning)\n- Cuba (democratic movements in the 1950s were quashed, making communism the only alternative)\n- Pakistan (not just Musharraf, but Al Haq)\n- Philippines\n- South Korea (the puppet Syngman Rhee murdered thousands of his own people, almost a competition with the US generals who murdered thousands; read about the Noh Gun Ri massacre)\n- Cambodia (the US supported the Khmer Rouge)\n- Afghanistan (the US funded the Taliban in the 1980s)\n- Vietnam (the brutal regime of the south)\n- Argentina\n- Brazil\n- Chile (Salvador Allende was democratically elected but was overthrown by US-backed Augusto Pinochet)\n- El Salvador\n- Haiti\n- Grenada (the US invaded in the 1980s to prevent Cuba from building an airport; Grenada's economy has never recovered from the loss of income from not having it)\n\nI'd list all the instances, but I don't feel like spending three hours typing them all.\n\n-----------\n\nAdditional:\n\nHey, "Marshall", do you have a selective memory or a short one?\n\nYou said: \n\n"[O]ne individual suggested that the United States simply 'gave up' on finding Usama bin Laden, and turned to Iraq. The truth is, we have not given up on finding UBL, nor will we 'give up' looking for him until he is either confirmed dead or is captured."\n\nExplain this quote, then:\n\n"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."\n- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

Nothing...in fact he has made things worse.

Yes, not only the backbone, Americas has lost its upper chamber also. They have supported unjust war of Bush in Iraq & Afganistan, killing US Troops & innocent people of Iraq & Afganistan. They have again elected that war monger for the second term, who tells lies to justify his all wrong doings everytime. His every move risks the security of Us and its people.\nHe has already endangered the world peace. Americans are being more insecure only because of arrogant & monstrous thinking & misleading decisions of George Bush. \nAmericans have lost their mind, values & intelectuality to assess GB as the Us president.

it is worse than a huge mistake. it is a war crime. bush/rove/cheney (the real axis of evil) should be tried as war criminals for their actions in iraq and afghanistan.

Well put from the conservative view.  Where were people like you all this time.  Bush has not only gone on this failed mission, he has almost voided the Constitution, the Bill of Rights,  he pandered to the Christian Right, he alienated most of the rest of the world, he has alienated anyone inside the country who did not agree with him by suggesting the were on the sides of the terrorists, he has  been the most divisive President I  have ever seen.  By doing all these things, he has given conservatism a bad name, and caused far too many to be more than suspicious of Republicans.  He has not only cost you all this,  he has cost  the country  far more.  It is time to abandon this "your either with us,  or your against us" mantra and go back to this country's strength - we are strong because of the variety of opinion and creative energy of all of us, not just the select few.  It is time to include, not exclude, as we face issues coming our way that will require the very best of all of us.

No, Carl Rove runs the USA.

Even Republicans realized we needed a change. We have a power crazed president who has become a liability and an embarassment to the US and we are failing miserably in Iraq (not our troops fault, but a oil blinded government). America has spoken!

WE DID NOT, it was those damn stinking red states.  Apparently, his religion and anti gay feelings are more important than what he had done wrong.  Never mind he is cutting education and investing more money overseas and on HIS war rather than at home for the people actually paying taxes.  I hate that bastard.

Of course he meant what he said...he lacks intelligence, he lacks diplomacy and he lacks respect on many levels.  \nHe just turned his own party against him now too - though half of them already were...he's an idiot.

We are an amazingly divided people and need to get over our petty differences if we ever hope to do anything good on a large scale.\n\nGetting rid of Bush would also be nice.
