But to a growing number of experts within the Beltway and beyond, a more sinister portrait is emerging of former White House political adviser Karl Rove: a man who achieved his record-shattering results only by using steroids.

“The question isn’t whether or not Karl Rove was juicing,” says Davis Logsdon, a University of Minnesota professor who studies steroid use among White House political advisers.  “The question is, exactly how much was he juicing?”

In building his case that Mr. Rove used performance-enhancing drugs during his years in the Bush White House, Mr. Logsdon compares his record in Texas, where he was an above-average political adviser, to his tenure in Washington, where he became a pumped-up superstar.


I think his dumb picture at the top makes it worse.

Listen, if MSNBC is hard up for mediocre satire, I am barely passable and far more affordable.

If you click on his name (in red) where it says by Andy Borowitz at the top, it links you to a story about Pointless 'Filler' Columns.  :lol

Are we sure Andy Borowitz isn't really a pen name for L/m/rs?

I refuse to believe this guy is Jewish.  Willco, I'm going to call a meeting and get him excommunicated.  See if the Anglicans will take him.

Bush Proposes Sending Transformers™ to Iraq
Awards $85B Defense Contract to Hasbro.
Quote
July 17, 2007 - Increasingly frustrated by the Iraqi government’s failure to meet a series of defined benchmarks, President George W. Bush today proposed sending a group of giant robots known as the Transformers™ to Iraq.

Aides to the president were vague as to when Mr. Bush arrived at his new Transformers™ strategy. But sources say that he devised the plan last week, shortly after a surprise visit to a multiplex in Bethesda, Md.

In announcing his new proposal, the president authorized an $85 billion defense contract to Hasbro, believed to be the largest military contract of its kind ever awarded to a toy company.

At a White House press conference, the president expressed his confidence that the Transformers™ would succeed where the Iraq government had failed.

"I’d like to see what would happen if Al Qaeda tried to attack one of our tanks, and instead the tank got up on its legs and turned out to be a robot and started shooting at them," Mr. Bush said.  "That would be so cool."

But even as the president announced his new plan for victory in Iraq, congressional critics questioned the wisdom of dispatching Transformers™ to the war-torn nation.

"A tank that can turn into a giant robot is awesome, but it’s not an exit strategy," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Democrat of Nevada.

Responding to his critics, Mr. Bush said that he would announce an exit strategy later this week after consulting with his newest advisor, J.K. Rowling.

"She has experience at ending things," Mr. Bush said.
