Sheryl Crow on Rove incident:
By on Apr 23rd, 2007 at 1:01 pm
Sheryl Crow on Rove incident:
“I thought it was very disappointing because, with leadership, you want to be able to engage. Because we’re all Americans here and we all have the same concerns. To be shot down, it was very disappointing.” Watch it:
[flv http://video.thinkprogress.org/2007/04/sherylcrow.320.240.flv]
Rove’s version: “She came over to insult me and she succeeded.” Rove is apparently very sensitive and easily insulted, particularly when discussing global warming policy.

Nosferatu normally has an attraction to beautiful women, no explaining this.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:04 pmGross. I wouldn’t want to be touched by either “lady” personally.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:05 pmWho was it that got Jeff Gannon his “Papers”..it alway’s seemed to me to be pretty obvious that it was..Der Karl..and of course that Karl is one of a particularly VISCIOUS BREED…aka THE DEEPLY CLOSETED REPUBLICAN QUEER…
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:06 pmGannon was TYPICAL Rove..especially at that time..when he was riding high..impervious to the law, etc..
So, I have no bias against Gay’s/Lesbians…none at all..I simply alway’s thought that this was the case, and to see his Pasty, weirdly Feminine..in the WORST way’s..physique..well..and his “Bitchy” lashing out at the Ladies…I dunno..he just seems like a VERY troubled Man-Child..a creepy little “Bad Hobbit”, who hasn’t had the pleasures of a Trussed up Boy-Toy in leather for far too long..and so would like very much to see us all fighting post apocalyptic giant insects along side George peppard…you dig..the man has a Shitty Soul..and there must be a reason other than total failure…right?
I dunno..I think I’ve got your number Karl..yeah..I know all about it..schwienhunt
Good thing she did not talk to him about election fraud, stolen elections (2000 & 2006), 9/11, lies that took this nation to war, katrina, the looting of the federal treasury, BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of dollars earmarked for Iraq that are not accounted for, fraud, treason, war crimes, or crimes against humanity.
I mean, geeeeezzz, he’s a sensitive guy and he just might have crapped his pants on the spot.
How dare the “little people” question the “decider” or his staff of criminals.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:06 pmInsult? An insult to him would be something along the lines of “I really think you’re just too damn liberal.”
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:06 pmThanks for having some guts, Sheryl.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:08 pmoos – not 2006, 2004 – rove couldn’t steal enough votes in 2006 to get “the math” to work in his favor.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:09 pmGross. I wouldn’t want to be touched by either “lady†personally.
Comment by Thomas — April 23, 2007 @ 1:05 pm
Another name change, Jake?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:10 pmThe problem for Rove is that all the facts about him are insults.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:11 pmAll in all, from reading the WAPO article describing the event, I’m glad I stayed home and pumped out the septic tank.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:11 pmHow dare any mere mortal speak to a member of King George’s Court!
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:11 pmGross. I wouldn’t want to be touched by either “lady†personally.

Rove is the one with cooties.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:14 pmRove = Evil

i used to feel that way too.
in 3rd grade.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:15 pmThis website has really degenerated. You really think this was about anything more than making these two publicity whores more money? Of course it is straight up rude to interrupt someone\’s dinner, even if it someone as despicable as Karl Rove. What did you think his reaction would be? \â€Oh sit down, my dears, lets chat.\†ThinkProgress has become a site for tools. Sad…
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:16 pmCrow wanted to talk about toilet paper, who wants to talk to a moonbat bout that? Good for Rove.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:19 pmThe bushco philosophy is clear, “We’re in charge and you’re not, so live with it!” Remember, bush has already defined the Americans for which he works:

Why is the modern neocon movement so gay? (not that there’s anything wrong with that; I’m just askin’)

It’s all of the self loathing, and misplaced sense of what’s “masculine”…
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:23 pmPoor little dainty republicans are very concerned with the “rudeness.” They’ve got the vapors. We’ll have to call off the cotillion….
Funny thing. Nobody was concerned with rudeness when Don Imus got up there and told a bunch of groaning excuses for jokes about blowjobs right in front of Hillary Clinton.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:23 pmBWAHAHAHAHA!!! anyone find it ironic that these two airheads of “ladies” have written on the side of a bus that pollutes more than 1000 SUVs together, “Stop Global Warming”?
hahahahahahahhahahahaha!!!! the stupitity of the self-righteous, elites hollyweirds!

LNG powered, pinhead. Did you think they would travel in a VW microbus?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:24 pm…just ask Dan Bartlett and Condi (they’ll know why the neocon “bowel” movement is so gay.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:24 pmThose Repubs sure do make the best victims.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:24 pmWho didn’t see Rove playing the “Victim Card”?
Those Libruls sure are mean people, ain’t they?
Little Lord Karl is feeling a bit sensitive these days – his plans for world domination have been relegated back to the playroom floor.
Seriously – what a jerk. If he didn’t want to talk, the polite response would have along the lines of, ‘Sorry, I don’t have time to talk about that now. Please contact my office.’ Of course, we know he’d never respond.
Even if the approach was rude, there was no reason for him to be rude in return. My mother would have made me call to apologize.

says the person whose post was complaining about etiquette.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:24 pmIt is a prayer bus..LOL
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:25 pmWhy is it there are no trolls worth responding to any longer here?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:26 pm“a bus that pollutes more than 1000 SUVs together”
huh?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:26 pmthis just gets better and better….hahahahaha!!!!
these airhead ladies are crying about Global Warming yet they tour on buses that pollute more than 100s of SUVs put together. The sad part is that it is not only one bus it is two buses, semi-trucks, SUVs, etc, etc that are all part of Sheryl Crows caravan. hahahaha!!!
that is like Hillary Clinton arriving at a Earth Day event on a sem-truck!!!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
these liberals, they are such hypocrites. They love telling others how to live, but they aren’t willing to live the way they tell us Americans to live.
Liberal mantra, Do as I say not as I live.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:27 pmHe’s fortunate that she didn’t make him cry.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:28 pmDid a closeted log cabin republican just take a shot at Sheryl Crow?
These freaks think Anne Coulter is hot, but think Sheryl Crow isn’t a lady?
WTF is wrong with these people?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:28 pm“the stupitity of the self-righteous, elites hollyweirds!” says the dumbass Bush cultist who doesn’t realize the bus runs on bio-diesel.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:35 pmShorter Rove: They made me cry.
Heh.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:35 pmLots of trolls out today. Guess there’s nothing good on Fox and Mom’s put away the action figures.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:35 pmSo, Think Douche — brilliant handle, btw — the dinner is a huge schmooze-fest. It’s all about interrupting people at their meals — not like yours in front of the TV.
And it’s hilarious to think about Rove being so sensitive, considering the slimy lies he’s shoveled onto his political opponents for decades. I think if he manages to stay out of jail, he’s going to spend the rest of his life developing a much thicker skin.
hahahahahahahhahahahaha!!!! the stupitity of the self-righteous, elites hollyweirds!
Comment by Valiantthehater
Bad crank? I’d alwaysheard that it made people paranoid after long usage, but nothing is as convincing as seeing it first-hand.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:35 pmThe reason this event was started years ago was to break down barriers between the WH and the media. . . . guess rove didn’t get the message. . . he must of thought it was a political rally and some no accounts slipped past security.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:36 pmSpudge – beginning with their toilet trainning, it would take way too long to cover everthing that is wrong with these folks. But, if I had to sum it up, I would say: scared little skunks.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:36 pmS_Boy:
I believe the point is that proper ladies are not rude in mixed company.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:36 pmRove claims he works for the American People. Yet only 30% of his employers give the Bush Administration good marks. If any of us who work for a living received a job evaluation that was only 30% positive, we’d be unemployed.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:37 pmhahaha….wacko Liberals…
Karl Rove the boogieman of the left….
careful liberals, Karl Rove will invade your brains and he will know what you are thinking! oh no, run, run…ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
Karl Rove is after us!!! what shall we all do?!!!
remember Karl Rove has a special button in his office which creates hurricanes like Katrina!
so careful, if you aren’t good little boys and girls he will wipe out your town with a Katrina like hurricane…..
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just saw Karl Rove!!! oh no, help, help me!!!!
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:37 pmSatans minions really are out today.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:38 pmBeating up on girls, makes em feel powerful.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:38 pmIt is patently obvious when you add up Bolton’s comments about who the president is responsbile to and Limpdicks commments to Ahnold abotu governing that when Rove says he workks for the Americna People, he really means he works for the 30% who will stand by them no mater what the truth is.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:39 pm“It’s all about interrupting people at their meals — not like yours in front of the TV.”
ouch.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmSo many of you have missed the point. The women asked Rover a question that he didn’t like, nor did he want to answer. His response was rude and dismissive, and he turned to walk away.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmThis was not unusual for anyone in this administration. They are rude and dismissive and this is who the population elected to represent them. When the population becomes tired of this type of representation they will impeach them.
Have you regulars at TP nailed valiant venus to the wall in the last few days when I wasn’t around? “Valiantthehater” sounds like a “MA/VV” reincarnation.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pm“I just saw Karl Rove!!! oh no, help, help me!!!!”
are you part of a grand jury?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmbluedog49 (a member of the anti-Bush cult group) claims that the bus runs on bio-diseal…hahahahaha!!!
who told you, the voices in your head? BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I am sure then, that all her cars, all her buses, all here SUVs also run on bi-diesel, right? bwahahahaha!!!!
yes, and I am sure that all the private jet planes that Sheryl Crow flies in fly on bio-diseal!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
now I await the pathetic respond from a anti-Bush cult member.
oh you guys are just hillarious!
careful Bluedog49, Karl Rove is sneaking behind you! BOO!! hahahahahaha!!!!!!
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:41 pmSpeaking of toilets. What is it with these liberals like Crow wanting to tell everyone how to wipe their ass?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:41 pmThey weren’t being rude, they were lobbying. I guess some people can’t recognize that, because there wasn’t a fat check written out ahead of time.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:41 pmJeez, this cultist laughing maniacly about “wacko liberals” sure sounds crazy. Read your own posts, shitheal. You’re the one who sounds wacko.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:42 pm31 – trolls with IQ’s in double digits have better things to do with their lives.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:42 pmRocks911,
beating up on girls? you mean like the god of the left Alec Baldwin beating up on his 11 year old daughter? yes, it makes wacked out liberals like him, who are made into gods by the left, powerful.
nice to know you recognize it.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:42 pmthe empress has spoken and reaching out isnt an option, tho i wouldnt touch that

Have you read any of your posts over the past few days. You are like the guy in the straight jacket that it’s the doctors who are crazy. Nobody here is going to believe you. Loony.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:43 pmRove is a little Himmler and feels the walls closing in on him. Wonder if he has a cyanide tooth capsule as well.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:44 pmPatrick1,
Nice… you just can’t take it low enough can you. What a class act.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:45 pmNot everybody, just NeoCons. You all have the smell of sh!t on you, so she figures that you all keep missing.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:45 pmIt never ceases to amaze me how the fools on the left grasp unto the words of idiots and demagogues like Sheryl Crow. I wonder if the liberals believe that because she can kind of think this makes up for her not having a science degree?
remember liberals the mantra of your hollyweird gods and of your politicians…..”Do as I say and not as I live”.
oh man, you can’t make this kind of funny crap up. This is hillarious how the liberal masses just follow retards like Crow as blind sheeps.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:46 pmS_Boy:
I didn’t say that I thought they were being rude, just for the record.

April 23rd, 2007 at 1:47 pmValiantthehate,
Ohh you really got me there ouch. What a putz. He isn’t my God you heathen.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:47 pmOK, a cult requires unquestioning obedience to a cult leader. I call many Bush supporters “cultists” because they will allow no criticism whatsoever of their leader.
I don’t know any Democratic leader who is NOT criticized in some way by some democrats, so I’m not sure I get the connection between being against Bush and being in a cult.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:48 pmding-dong, the left is wacked, the left is wacked, ding-dong, the left is wacked, the left is wacked.
Liberal fools, what would you do without your hollyweird elite gods, what?
It was embarrassing how left wing pundits like Alan Colmes and others were defending their god Alec Baldwin after he verbally abused his 11 year old daughter. The thing is that this represents who liberals are. Abusive, uneducated, mean spirited fools.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:48 pmDidn’t know that Alec Baldwin was a god. Thought he was just an actor. Thought there was only one god. Valiumspitshater thinks there’s more.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:49 pmValiantthehater,
You really are impressed with yourself aren’t you. Half of what you say Liberals believe is all in your head. Up your dose.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:49 pm‘these liberals’ as parick calls them dont tell people to do anything, but then patrick wouldnt know that would he-any suggestions to improve the ecology are better than none at all
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:50 pmGlobal Warming is a cult.

I doubt it…these neocon scum aren’t the self-sacrificing type.
I’d be more inclined to believe he has property purchased and waiting in Dubai, a jet fueled and ready to fly him there on an hour’s notice, and a helicopter ready to drop a rope ladder to him and fly him off to the jet on five minutes’ notice.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:51 pmBluedog49, you are a member of the anti-Bush cult. First sign you have run into an anti-Bush cult member is……………………they deny they are a cult member. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
also they blame Bush AND America for all the ills of the world. just admit it bluedog49…………oh sh………t careful I just saw karl rove insert a brain reading device into your head! hurry remove it, remove it!!!!! oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ladies and gentlemen, mr. robert novak.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:52 pmYour good. I figured you were playing devil’s advocate.
The trolls are in a complete tail spin. I have never seen mighty aphrodite (posting as Valienthater today) post such crazy sh!t before. They are attacking a couple of women who are trying to do something that benefits everybody.
What is it about saving the planet that the trolls are against.
Does the bible say something about a fifth horseman of the apocalypse who will ride down on brown water and smoggy air? I don’t remember reading about how everybody will be wiped out by cancer in the bible. I remember plague and famine, rivers of blood. But, I don’t remember people be driven from their homes by rising sea levels.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:53 pm#60, we can only hope….Here rovie, here’s a bone, now bite down….LOL…Blessings
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:53 pmRocks911,
ahhhh projection aren’t we? didn’t you know, half of what you think about Bush, Karl Rove, conservatives, Republicans, etc. is what the voices in your head are telling you.
don’t believe the voices in your head, they are lying. YES! they are liars!
bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:54 pmAlan Colmes is NOT a left wing pundit dumb a$$. This shows exactly where you get your news and what you base it on. Kool Aide drinker.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:54 pmVTH (aka VV and MA) clearly takes umbrage at Crow and David’s attempt to make a change, yet isn’t that what the troll is doing by attempting to tease the readers here into doing things their way?
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:55 pmSays the person who has been spewing hate and bile on here all morning long, from the “War Party.” Good luck with that there buddy.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:56 pmLiberals, liberals….here is a joke for you….
How does a Liberal politician pay for his SUV?
by forcing the American people to pay higher taxes!!!!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:56 pmKKKarl wouldn’t have slapped Jeff Gannon’s hand away-, or his………
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:57 pmGeorge W Bush and Karl Rove aren’t republicans or conservatives anymore than they are Christians. Dumb a$$.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:57 pmDang, I need to take my own advice. It’s not worth wasting time on the trolls. They won’t listen, because they don’t care. This is how they amuse themselves, folks. When it stops being fun, they’ll scurry away.
April 23rd, 2007 at 1:58 pmIt never ceases to amaze me how the fools on the right grasp unto the words of idiots and demagogues like Bill O’Reilly|Ann Coulter|Glenn Beck|Rush Limbaugh|Karl Rove.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:00 pmYou’re right, really low quality trolls nowadays in TP – I will still check in and see if it gets better. I hope the Site Monitors get their shit together.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:00 pmvaliumselfshater is a hoot. long laughs at it’s own jokes. Believes Alec Baldwin is a god and that Karl Rove is good for the country. So this is where Michael Weiner Savage spends his time before going on the air.
Just because you have voices in your head Vapidrealityhater, doesn’t mean anyone else does. Now back to the porn sites with you.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:01 pmPerhaps if they’d had a briefcase stacked full of C-notes Rove could have made time to speak with them.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:01 pmWhen it comes to politics, Rove’s world is distinctly black-and-white. OF COURSE he thinks David & Crow went up to insult him, what else could they want to do? Start a dialog that might allow some insight into the global warming argument that this Administration works so hard to inure itself against? Everything Rove has done in his kingmaking career has been amout smearing and demonizing the opponent. Therefore, anyone not a staunch supporter is nothing but an enemy to be further smeared and demonized.
This story paints him in an even more unlfattering light than he’s ever been in. First, to the Brawny-paper-towel man asthetic of the GOP, it looks like he got his ass kicked…by two GIRLS nonetheless. If he got rolled by a stripper after a lap dance gone awry and it got caught on video, that might be the only thing more embarrassing than two women with differing opinions trying to start a conversation and him running away like they had cooties. A little diplomacy, a jovial photo op, a subtle-yet-dominant reminder that this isn’t the place to talk shop, and Rove would’ve looked America’s dad to the GOP. But no, he came across like the virgin-nerd-teacher’s-pet in a political “Porky’s” too unsure of his own position to talk to anybody about it, let alone women folk who would make his embarrassment doubly so. And who in the GOP wants to take marching orders from a fatty fatty boombalatty too afraid to whip it out and proclaim his manhood in front of a couple of dames?
Which brgins up the second point, he doesn’t look like he has any confidence in his convictions. Ironic, since his confidence will probably CAUSE many convictions before this Administration’s term ends. The fact that two women unnerved him so amused me, as it was probably his attraction to him, his vanity that they wanted to talk to HIM!- that prevented him from running away right then and there. What if it HAD been two men who approached him to talk about global warming? Imagine if two dont-give-a-s*** penis-wearers like Alec Baldwin & Martin Sheen tried to start a dialog. He probably would’ve run away on his tippy toes like a 50s sitcom mom that just saw a mouse.
I know this is coming across homophobic and/or misogynistic (sp?) and for that I apologize. I don’t have a woman with women or homosexuals, and I don’t judge people based on their gender or sexual preference. Who I DO judge, however, is Karl Rove. Because after his “performance” on Saturday (not to mention that whole rapping nonsense a few weeks back) I’m more convinced than ever in my own little conspiracy theory. If Rove is not gay, he’s certainly fey. What the kids in school (and probably the teachers and custodial staff) would’ve referred to as a “momma’s boy.” His cruelty, his divisiveness, his petty vindictiveness and his desire to prop up and support alpha-males in politics and their buddies in big business all stems from his inability to get some without paying for it. The “big secret” the GOP is trying desperately to hide is NOT that Bush is stupid or Cheney is evil, or that the entire organization is teeming with corruption and incompetence. It’s that all of the party’s biggest success stems from a chubby little mamma’s boy who couldn’t throw a punch without it becoming a slap mid-throw. The entire blue-collar section of the GOP might disappear if they knew all the shots are called by Rip Taylor, no matter how much they may agree politically with those shots.
Think about the Chappelle Show skit where Dave playd a blind-and black-white supremacist who was never told he was black himself. The Klan desperately wanted to hear and believe what they were being told, just not out of THAT mouth. Think about silent movie stars whose careers were destroyed by talkies because nobody could believe tough talk or words of woo coming out of THAT mouth. Rove is that guy. The perfect example of the Whiny Ass Titty Baby who can only get his message of hate out if it comes from someone else’s mouth.
What the media, or at least Stewart and Olbermann, really ought to do is this: Every time they show a clip of Bush talking tough, doing his sneer-and-swagger-thing, throw a picture up in the corner of the screen of Rover getting all pissy with Crow and David, or trying to rap at the previous Correspondent Shindig. Just show Rove being Rove, with a caption saying “Got Bush into office.” If Rove truly became the picture of the Most Powerful Republican in the Country, they’d lose so much support in the heartland and wouldn’t get it back for a few years. Those people might not defect to the left certainly, but they won’t want to be associated with THAT guy. Bush, sure, they want to have a beer with Bush. But ROVE? That’s the guy other guys beat up for his lunch money in school. That’s the guy who always offered the girls in school to help him with his homework, after all, he’s always home, happy to do it. He’s the guy nobody wanted anything to do with unless he could do something for you, and even then, you didn’t want him to stick around afterwards. He IS the GOP, and it’s time the American public got to associate his face with everything the GOP does, and ask, is this who you want really running things? Really?

I thought Crow was saying that we should only use 1 piece of toilet tissue and that would end global warming. While Global warming is very real and definetly caused my man, Crow is NOT the person you want as the figure head for our fight to save this planet. Honestly, she just said we should only be allowed BY LAW to use 1 square of toilet paper to wipe with after taking a restroom break. This lady is crazy as a loon.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:24 pmA troll is having a serious nervous breakdown today…
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:26 pmwhat’s the difference between trolls and people who repeat things they hear on talk radio and have no self-respect? it’s not a joke; somebody asked me this question and i had no answer for them.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:26 pmGreat jokes. Stolen straight from the vast collection of lawyer jokes. Crow touched a nerve in little Rovie and he got upset. Can’t blame the guy for being testy. The walls of his permanent control of the government dream have come crashing down and he’s no longer safe in a room full of Republicans. That would make anyone skittish.
This whole oversight thing is pissing off so many people. But it’s all shoot the messanger and fear the shadows mentality that I see from the trolls here. They don’t discuss the damage to the country, constitution or the 3 co-equal branches. No, they turn into Shecky the conservative joke teller.
Good thing the Democrats in congress aren’t giving any more free passes and are turning the lights on these cockroaches.

April 23rd, 2007 at 2:31 pmFunny, when there’s a chance to rip on a woman on any thread in TP, the trolls are all over it. They have the mentality of third graders, it seems.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:34 pmThe minute I heard ManCow this morning (don’t ask, BobandTom were on a commercial break) attacking Sheryl for her post-bathroom etiquette, I knew this was a right wing SwiftBoating of her.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:34 pmTypical. One critisizes someone in this administration, and instead of arguing or debating with facts, they launch a character attack (much like the trolls here).
I remember when gasoline was around $1.15/gal.
Of course Clinton was in office then……
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:36 pmStrictly out of the goodness of my heart, and to repair the psychological damage done to her by Rove’s rude response, I hereby volunteer to be touched by Sheryl Crow, any time, anywhere she wishes too.
Ah, the things I’ll do to fight global warming…

It’s the mentality of “we don’t understand, so instead of educating ourselves, we attack”
I’m pretty sure the trolls here have never essentially even gathered the guts to talk to a women, let alone engage in a serious relationship with one
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:38 pmI guess the idea that their hero is too much of a coward to engage a couple of women on an important issue is a little hard to process for some of these cultists. I haven’t seen a cogent argument yet that defends Rove’s position.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:38 pmRemember all those rants about how gas prices would drop after (fill in the blank). One right after another. Must have been part of that secret meeting Cheney had. But that’s depressing serious stuff. Where’s the jokester? I need more stale lawyer jokes that have been changed to suit Vapidselfshater’s laugh track.

April 23rd, 2007 at 2:39 pmI can’t wait until Rove is offended by someone in the prison chow line.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:40 pmWhat’s the difference between a troll and a human?
Trolls are mouth breathing knuckle draggers that live under bridges and think Ann Coulter is hot.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:42 pmtrueblue, when oil hit $50 dollars a barrel, conservatives lambasted Clinton for having no coherent energy policy. I think double-standards are part of their DNA.

You are a giver, Gregor.
April 23rd, 2007 at 2:44 pmlast year, Colbert was “too rude” and it took several days for people to stop talking about the dinner and what went on there. this year the show didn’t ruffle any feathers so Laurie David did it instead. that’s STILL too much to suit them.
the people in the white house don’t think people should be allowed to disagree with them. it’s as simple as that. that’s why they spend so much time calling the rest of us names.

Lovely smile on Miss. Crow pictured at this link…

So Miss Crow wants to sell something she claims to have invented…
She has designed a clothing line with what she calls a “dining sleeveâ€.
The sleeve is detachable and can be replaced with another “dining sleeve†after the diner has used it to wipe his or her mouth.
What if Miss Crow had her “DINING SLEEVE†on and rove didn’t want any goo that she had smeared on it to get on his $1800.00 suite?

But trolls, by all means, continue the unwarranted character attack of Ms.Crow!
It keeps her preaching of the dangers of global warming in the media spotlight, and all you got is here A$$ wipping etiquette.
You trolls should be lucky to be even mentioning her posterior. It may be the nearest you’ll ever get to viewing (discussing) the 2nd most beautiful part of the female anatomy (her mind being number one, of course!)

I just got an eyewitness account of the Karl Rove-Laurie David-Sheryl Crow encounter at the White House Correspondents Dinner Saturday night, and it suggests that David and Crow were a bit more confrontational than they portrayed themselves in their own account of the incident, published in the Huffington Post. In their story, David and Crow write, “The ‘highlight’ of the evening had to be when we were introduced to Karl Rove. How excited were we to have our first opportunity ever to talk directly to the Bush Administration about global warming.”
The eyewitness says the person who introduced David to Rove was the New York Times’ Maureen Dowd. I want you to meet Laurie David, Dowd said to Rove. (These are all approximate recollections, so no quotation marks.) Dowd said David would like to say hello.
According to David and Crow, the encounter began with a polite request. “We asked Mr. Rove if he would consider taking a fresh look at the science of global warming,” they write. “Much to our dismay, he immediately got combative. And it went downhill from there.”
The eyewitness remembers it a bit differently. Immediately after Dowd’s introduction, the witness says, David began lecturing Rove about global warming. This administration has done nothing on the issue, she told Rove. We face a crisis. The time to act is now. This administration has done nothing…
At that point, Rove broke in to say, Well, actually we have done something. Rove mentioned global climate research, at which point David broke in herself to say, You just don’t understand. All these questions have been answered. That’s worthless. That’s useless.
In their account, David and Crow write, “We reminded the senior White House advisor that the U.S. leads the world in global warming pollution and we are doing the least about it. Anger flaring, Mr. Rove immediately regurgitated the official Administration position on global warming which is that the US spends more on researching the causes than any other country.”
The eyewitness says Rove asked David if she had read the IPCC report, referring to the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which, while confirming a human role in climate change, substantially undermines some of the most catastrophic charges made in Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth,” which David produced. David said she had read the report. “We felt compelled to remind him that the research is done and the results [the IPCC report] are in,” David and Crow write. “Mr. Rove exploded with even more venom. Like a spoiled child throwing a tantrum, Mr. Rove launched into a series of illogical arguments regarding China not doing enough thus neither should we. (Since when do we follow China’s lead?)”
In the eyewitness’ version, again, David and Crow are a bit more aggressive than their own story suggests. The eyewitness says David told Rove, You need to bring in new people to tell you the truth. Rove mentioned Dr. John Marburger, the White House science advisor. At that point, according to the eyewitness, Crow began poking Rove’s chest with her finger, demanding to know what corporations were underwriting Marburger’s work. Rove said Marburger had been in academia most of his career.
With Crow jabbing him in the chest, Rove turned to take his seat. Then, the witness says, Crow grabbed his arm. A few more words were exchanged, and it was over. At the Huffington Post, David and Crow described the ending this way: “In his attempt to dismiss us, Mr. Rove turned to head toward his table, but as soon as he did so, Sheryl reached out to touch his arm. Karl swung around and spat, ‘Don’t touch me.’ How hardened and removed from reality must a person be to refuse to be touched by Sheryl Crow? Unfazed, Sheryl abruptly responded, ‘You can’t speak to us like that, you work for us.’ Karl then quipped, ‘I don’t work for you, I work for the American people.’ To which Sheryl promptly reminded him, ‘We are the American people.’”
In light of the eyewitness’ account, another way of saying it might be, How hardened and removed from reality must a person be to refuse to be jabbed in the chest by Sheryl Crow?
April 23rd, 2007 at 7:26 pmSomeone should kick Karl in the balls … if he has any.
April 23rd, 2007 at 10:25 pmWell..here we go again..why do the stubborn stupids ignore all evidence? Why is it so important to WIN rather than actually Govern? well see below..and memorize..
April 24th, 2007 at 12:25 amFor all of us who wonder WHY the Trolls and the ChristoFascists simply CANNOT accept ANY position that does not cringe in accordance with the “Voice from On High”..well..here’s why…simple as that.
To paraphrase Norman mailer..and others..
‘…Karl Rove was there to recognize that there were substantial powers to be obtained by catering to STUPID STUBBORN people, and George Bush would be the man to harvest such resources.’
‘…George W. understood STUPID PEOPLE WELL. They were not dumb, their minds were not physically crippled in any way. THEY HAD CHOSEN TO BE STUPID BECAUSE THAT OFFERED IT’S OWN KIND OF POWER. TO WIN A GREAT MANY SMALL CONTESTS OF WILL, THEY NEED ONLY IGNORE ALL THE EVIDENCE. BRIGHT PEOPLE WOULD BREAK DOWN TRYING TO ARGUE WITH THEM…
Aka..the Moronic Dystopia that is the stated goal of the Corporate Fascist Theocracy..the Stubborn Stupids…trolls every one..
Patrick1 = thinkdouche=valiant hater.
these idiots sentence structure gives them away. I wonder if Patrick might also be Mighty Aphrodite/Valiant Venus, whose real name is Megan, a crackhead/methead hairy troll who pretends to be a lawyer. theres more hair on that cunts arms than there is on all the asses in italy….
these handful of peopel must really lead empty lives to be on here so much..
April 24th, 2007 at 12:27 amThere appears to be something missing here. When did the adventures of Sheryl Crow become something anyone cares about ?
I am assuming that whatever Rove did it stopped short of running her over with a bus. If he had though, who would care ?
Any updates in the pipeline on what Celine Dion is doing ? Billy Ray Cyrus got any thoughts on Medicare funding ?
Seriously, the whole “celebrities have an option about politics” is dubious enough without bringing f-list celebrities into it. Now let’s turn to Doogie Howser MD for a rubuttal…
April 24th, 2007 at 4:13 amSo, celebs can’t have an interest in politics? Since we’re being random, how about no political involvment for bus drivers and bathroom attendants because both groups creep me out…?
April 24th, 2007 at 7:47 amWho cares what she has to say? She drives around in a bus followed by a train of busses and tells us to conserve. She wants us to only use one piece of TP (hmm, toilet paper has the same initials as think progress). She is a hypocrite just like Gore.
ROTFL
April 24th, 2007 at 9:12 am#139
Right Alfred…an unsubstantiated eyewitness account. The bottom-line here is, the Bush administration has made every attempt to sweep global warming science under the rug. Nice try.
April 24th, 2007 at 10:41 amWell ordinarily I would have said sure they can, there’s just no valid reason to give them attention.
But I just read that Crow has called for everyone use less toilet paper to achieve something unspecified in regard to the environment.
I dunno. Perhaps there’s a case to be made that on 24/04/2007 Sheryl Crow has forever determined why celebrities are no longer allowed to have an opinion on politics. Kind of like how teachers will tolerate kids talking class but if one of them brings in a megaphone the shit will hit the fan and everyone cops it.
Someone tell me I’m wrong. That when she linked herself to Karl Rove and the national media spotlight turned on her to hear what important message she had about (I assume) climate change she didn’t lead off with “USE LESS TOILET PAPER!”
I’m imagining MLK taking to the stage in front of a sea of black faces yearning for inspiration and himdeclaring “I have a burrito!”
