Need more proof that the liberal blogosphere has a clinical psychosis when it comes to President Bush or Karl Rove…………..here’s more proof. This is directly from Technorati’s coverage of blogs writing about Mr. Rove. I can tell you from reviewing several hundred of them that they are mostly looney left-wingers frothing at the mouth.

There is little doubt that we are experiencing a very real psychological condition that has plagued millions of Americans since the year 2000.
It’s symptoms include a reluctance to accept verifiable facts, a myopic view of the President and Karl Rove as evil, a knee-jerk reaction when the President or Mr. Rove are mentioned and a propensity to further unsubstantiated rumors. It is most likely to effect those who view themselves as intellectuals, or who otherwise have a condescending personality. There is no cure for it.
Those who suffer from this condition don’t seek help because they do not believe they are sick. They choose to spend most of their time with other sufferers and have come to view their condition as the norm. They do not have a point of reference that would allow them to understand their illness because they refuse to seek that level of reality.
If you should make contact with someone suffering from this Bush/Rove derangement, it is best to avoid them and seek professional help. They are prone to violent attacks and abusive language and are likely to minimalize you as a fellow human being.
Karl Rove must be the most maligned person in America with the exception of the President. When he announced his resignation recently, I purposefully reviewed nearly a hundred left wing websites and blogs, and even on-line magazine articles, to see how they treated the news.
There was one common thread in all the articles and postings, and that was the total vacuum with respect to factual information. In the many years that Mr. Rove has been associated with the President, and after several years in the White House, Karl Rove has never been found to have engaged in impropriety. The media will paint a picture to the contrary and the liberal blog world will cast him as the devil, but they are void of facts while concocting their stories.
To read liberal blogs, you would believe that Karl Rove had been found guilty of the Valerie Plame spy leak. To the contrary, we know that Richard Armitage was the one who leaked Ms. Plame’s identity to the press. After lengthy investigation, and several appearances before the grand jury, Karl Rove was found not guilty on all counts. There was no proof that he had engaged in anything that was immoral, unethical or illegal. The special prosecutor, tried as he did, was not able to pin anything on Mr. Rove, because Mr. Rove did nothing wrong.
One of the articles I reviewed the other day was written by someone from the far left who fancied herself a great writer. She said that Rove had created ‘dark days’ in Washington. This is an actual quote from her article, which graced the front page of a major on-line magazine: ‘He is brilliant in that he has managed to manipulate the media and use all manner of deviousness from outright lying to planting false innuendos to further his own and his party?s political gain.’
Did the author bother to detail the ‘false innuendos’ that she purports Rove to have planted? There were no specific examples to be found. The assertion that Karl Rove could manipulate the media is humorous. Most major media outlets have lambasted Rove since he first stepped foot in the White House. But this is typical of the left’s take on Mr. Rove, always using hyperbole, conjecture, innuendo, hear-say and rumor to paint a picture of him as evil and corrupt.
Those who have worked with Rove for years describe him as always happy, never short with co-workers and having an encyclopedic mind for facts and figures.
Below is a brief 6 minutes of Rove from last month at a Republican event. You will notice that the interviewer gives Mr. Rove ample opportunity to badmouth Democratic presidential candidates. Instead, Mr. Rove shows his true character and talks instead about the difficulties of a presidential campaign. He only mentions Mr. Obama briefly when he is making a point about the pace and schedule of a campaign.
Most liberals have likely never really seen Karl Rove speak in such a forum. They have made him out to be a Hitler-like figure only because he has been a brilliant political strategist. He will leave public office with a clean record, and a serious interest in the future of America.
