Sorry, did I miss something? What exactly were those "hard questions" posed to the ole' "turd-blossom"?

Rove really seems to get a kick out of being despised. I bet he's into S&M.

yeah, this was super tame. if anything, it made rove look likeable.

...uh, until he threatened to send the guy to gitmo at the end. that was creepy.

in the bush white house, everybody knows "Gitmo" is code-word for "we gonna have a big ole Nazi flavored orgy in five minutes."

Not shown: them fucking like rabbits after the interview. I bet I know where "Derek Flanzraich" hung that lei next...

Nothing hard hitting here, ho hum, what a bore.

I only made it through about 45 seconds. Flanzraidch is a shmuck, and the mere sight of Carl Rove makes my blood boil.

Does stuff like this just generally make anyone else uncomfortable?

The whole exercise was so sophomoric. This is what Harvard produces?

Yeah, sorry. I think Karl Rove is an amoral troglodyte, but he ate that little mincing schoolboy's lunch.

That was really dumb.

When someone says that you are Ann Coulter and Satans love child, Karl, he his not speaking to you. He is speaking to us and shaking his head in shared bewilderment. It is not always about you.

Why are we giving him media time?

Seriously, his "visibility" appears to me to be nothing more than a contrived effort to "get him out there" so that it is harder to indict him later.

The guy refuses to sit for the people (there is at least one "declined" subpeona from Congress, right?), yet he gets to sit for Harvard?

It's just wrong.

In regard to the McCain 2000 election thing, Karl, it's really not whether you did it or not that's important. It's that it fits your character that's important. It is a Rovian thing to do. How does that set with you?

What an embarassing spectacle. That Flanzraich was so far out of his depth. made me want to vote republican. Derek - do us all a favor and go away- you are a failure.

Wow, so close to an ambush, and so wasted.

No tough questions here. Flanzraich was a limp noodle.

Tough questions? We don' need no steenkin' tough questions.

Why is Rove so feared? He comes across as a poor liar and a rude idiot in this video.

Tough questions?? Are you kidding?

Say what you want... Karl wasn't the goof in this interview. Rove is a man who is consistently "shrewd as a serpent, innocent as a dove" - which, by the way, is a high compliment.

So- hahahaha. So now I'll be so sure to speak so even more dismissively of Harvard's so-called superior students. So, Derek, are you a Teddy or JFK Jr. scholar?
So extremely sad

The fact that Karl Rove can joke about sending this guy to Gitmo considering the horrible illegal treatment of detainees there is offensive and extremely disappointing.

Just looking over these comments ... it's funny how the world has gotten over snark. After 10 years of internet chat rooms, no one's impressed any more when some fat college kid waxes smarmy. Boring.
