Anybodey else catch two faced Karl Rove last night on Fox News?

First, he whined like a little girl for half an hour and refused to admit the truth when Fox finally called the election for Obama last night? He sat there and repeatedly tried to spin the numbers from Ohio to try and prove Fox was jumping the gun...it was hysterical.

THEN he went on this rant about how the very first thing Obama needed to do is "reach across the aisle" and compromise with House Republicans. He claimed it was a President's duty to reach out and be the first to attempt compromise with the Minority...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Right...because that's EXACTLY what GWB did for the 8 years he had control...compromise...no wait! During the Bush years, Republicans PRAISED Bush for "Holding to his convictions" and REFUSING to compromise with Liberals. Back then they said the hallmark of a good President was his determination to stick to his convictions and not be swayed into compromise.

Anybody surprised Rove expects Obama to compromise with congressional Republicans, even though GWB refused to compromise with Democrats when their positions were reversed?
 
It was pathetic. My roommates and I were yelling at the TV, "Dude, it's over!" We ended up switching it back to CNN for the remainder of the evening.

I thought it was pretty freaking amazing for someone to attempt to get the network to change a call right on live tv. It was pretty awesome and they didn't know what to do with him.
 
I think before compromise comes some serious republican ass needs to be kick first!


I listened to Rove going on and on about compromise and how it it important to any presidency and I couldn't help but wonder, doesn't this guy remember Bush not compromising on anything?

NCLB was one of his "signature achievements" and that was written by Ted Kennedy and George Miller.

Bush claimed a mandate even when he lost the popular vote. He also made a speech after the '04 election about how he had earned political capital in the election, and intended to spend it.
