Margaret Carlson: Rove ‘really rattled’ by Obama
Former White House adviser Karl Rove admitted during a debate about “the partisan divide” in Washington on Monday that the atmosphere is “poisonous,” but he refused to take any personal responsibility for the situation.
“The atmosphere in Washington D.C. is too poisonous and has been for the last 16 years,” Rove stated. However, when asked about his own role in creating this divisiveness, he responded, “I’m a myth.”
Rove also insisted that President Bush had reached out to Congressional Democrats early in his presidency, contrasting this with President Obama’s pushing through his stimulus program and budget without support from most Republicans.
Columnist Margaret Carlson commented to MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann, “That exchange was so fierce, I found it very surprising. I think Karl Rove must be really rattled by President Obama, because Republicans have not mounted an opposition.” LinkHere
