Rove twitters from hunting trip with Fred Barnes and Chris Wallace.
Raw Story notes that even “under Congressional subpoena,” Karl Rove is finding “a little time for rest and relaxation,” going on a hunting trip in South Texas where he “fired off a few updates on Twitter.” One user joked that it was good Cheney wasn’t along for the ride, although Rove actually said that he wished he had been:
@tomatcc: “ALL CLEAR!” Dick’s in Wyoming. 8:45 AM yesterday
@KarlRove: You’re correct—unfortunately Cheney’s not here. But, I look forward to my next hunt with him. #TCOT #SGP 9:54 AM yesterday
Fox News’s Chris Wallace and the Weekly Standard’s Fred Barnes accompanied Rove, who also posted a “Twitpic” of Barnes with shotgun in one hand and dead bird in the other. Rove said Barnes hit “two out of a covey.”

February 13th, 2009 at 10:45 amSay… does KKKarl ever go hunting with anyone from CNN or MSNBC?
They’re probably not that stupid.
February 13th, 2009 at 10:50 amt-blossom’s beginning to look like a domesticated fowl.

– - Geeze, look at at that Twitpic. It’s the new American Gothic and Grant Wood is spinning in his grave.
February 13th, 2009 at 10:51 amIs there a yeti in the woods that can treat these guys like they were in a beef jerky commercial?
February 13th, 2009 at 10:53 am@KarlRove: “You’re correct—unfortunately Cheney’s not here. But, I look forward to my next hunt with him.”
At the Jeff Gannon Nude Manhunt Free-For-All no doubt! I here Rushbo and Senator Larry Craig have been saving up their GBH and Oxycontin for this manly weekend!
February 13th, 2009 at 10:54 amYou are known by the company you keep.
February 13th, 2009 at 10:56 amThere will be towel snappin’ and scotch in the ole lodge tonight! Can’t wait for the update…
February 13th, 2009 at 10:56 amIck! I think I am going to barf all over this picture on my laptop!
Is this pic the next best thing to actually finding a photo of FNC actually IN BED with the GOP??
February 13th, 2009 at 10:57 amBig Game Hunters that dress in neon colors and Village People costumes? And these are the people who chest-thumping Republican males cite as their heroes? Egads, no wonder the conservatives collective psyche is so twisted.
Just saying . . .
February 13th, 2009 at 10:58 amI’m rooting for the birds.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:01 amHas their ever been a better name for this than “twitpic”? Because that photo is definitely full of twits.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:02 amTweets vs Twits in a cage match, FOX Sports Network
February 13th, 2009 at 11:04 amWow! Real men. Was the covey released from a cage? Or, if not, is that why DICK Cheney wasn’t along? No sport?
February 13th, 2009 at 11:07 amRove kills the truth, why not small birds? Its a good opportunity to bring Chris Wallace and Fred Barnes up to snuff on what lies to tell. He trains them like dogs, they bay along.

Oh, I got a bird for ‘em, alrighty…

Perhaps the poor birds are so overcome w/ laughter they can’rt even fly away to safety.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:23 amThe way these clowns are dressed, it has to be a canned hunt- cruelest “sport” hunting imaginable.
When released the birds (or animals) go toward the humans thinking they’re going to be hand-fed as usual, but are shot instead.
Real he-man stuff.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:27 amSome comedian said hunting is not a sport because in a sport everyone involved knows they’re playing.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:30 amI hope that they form a circular firing squad.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:33 amwho’s the guy in the orange shirt, on right?
and why is rover standing so close to him, and not the woman in orange?
always figured that slug to be a big wuss…
February 13th, 2009 at 11:34 amIf Homeland Security isn’t monitoring this militia it’s the greatest lapse since Bush elected to ignore a certain PDB.
February 13th, 2009 at 11:36 amBrave Repukes hunting clipped penned birds…real manly.
February 13th, 2009 at 12:22 pmSomeone please shoot this man in the face…and make it count this time!
February 13th, 2009 at 12:27 pmSilly Fascists and thier penchant for killing defenseless creatures.
February 13th, 2009 at 12:28 pmHow embarrassing.
February 13th, 2009 at 12:35 pmIs there a photo somewhere of these guys in camo’s holding an M-16.
Na, I guess not, after all, they are conservatives.
February 13th, 2009 at 12:37 pmSo where’s Pamela Willeford?
February 13th, 2009 at 1:02 pmRove said Barnes hit “two out of a covey.”
Well, that’s not a big accomplishment when you are shooting them as they are released from a cage. They probably didn’t even know how to fly……republican sportsmanship.
February 13th, 2009 at 1:16 pmAt least they have the the numb-nuts with pink visors on. Both of them have no idea how to hold a shotgun around people. You-all don’t keep your hands around the trigger and if you have a break action gun it should be opened as well. Course maybe they are hunting Repug style off the back of an SUV and are ready for the next shot.
February 13th, 2009 at 1:17 pmIs this another ranch where you shoot tame birds who are either drawn to a location by the location of the food pails or even birds that have been tied up and are released by the “guide” kicking the bird on the side to release it ?
February 13th, 2009 at 1:40 pmDo ya think those jerk-hoffs got more than 50ft away from the SUV before they had somone flush the birds?
February 13th, 2009 at 1:51 pmTo paraphrase Oscar Wilde “the unspeakable hunting the eatable”
February 13th, 2009 at 2:47 pmWow, Rove is Twittering while he and his best buds are “hunting”. I see a trip to South Texas is a “great prize” for years of being a propagandist puppet for the King of Turds.
Is Rush and Billo texting the trio as they hunt and getting pics from the digital cameras from the cell phones?
You know you’re a hunter when you bring your cell phone into a wildlife preserve and have the game wardens do all the work you say you’re doing.
February 13th, 2009 at 4:18 pmI thought criminals couldn’t own guns. Oh, wait, they’re only criminals outside of the US.
February 13th, 2009 at 5:02 pmThis is just a really weird pic. What sort of person would want to appear in a pic like this?
February 13th, 2009 at 5:28 pmThank you very much.
