An incoming e-mail crossed my screen: KarlRove is now following your updates on Twitter… (movie ingénue scream of terror and spooky organ crescendo here!) It was 2:21 am, Monday morning, 02 February. The Arizona Cardinals were mounting a furious comeback in Super Bowl 43 on both BBC and SKY.
It seemed as innocuous as a 70’s draft notice beginning “Greetings.” The man known as “Bush’s Brain” and “@#!$&@#!$&” was now… following… me… little old political journo living in Wales, UK. I ran around the house and pulled down all the shades, shut off electrical equipment and got out the night vision glasses. You don’t need to know from where I got them.
I was sure a Delta Team strike force was converging on the farmhouse to take this progressive out. Our only short-term advantage was local terrain knowledge.
Here is the man who laughs in the face of Congressional subpoenas, did a very bad white guy attempt at rap at the gridiron dinner and generally made fun of publicly destroying the life on anyone who dared stand inthe way of the Cheney-Bush Administration machine. Here is a man who will make so much money on the chicken and pea speaking circuit it will make everyone wonder why they worried about Bill Clinton’s $100 million dollars+ earned on the speaking tour. He will have his own national economy and the sky is the limit for this uber consultant with the sharp elbows and very, very, very long memory.
I’m screwed. Just so much chum sitting on the blogosphere surface of GOP Red State water. Now I get to follow his Twitter Tweet as he and his team of Limbaugh zombified ditto heads follow mine (hold me…) and 7,357 others.
Imagine being able to now decode the sinister meaning behind Tweets such as:
@AmishSt (identity changed to protect) The plan is based on a flawed premise that we can spend our way to prosperity. Watch here: http://www.rove.com/appeara…
@ellehcc I’ve got quite a few appearances on Fox this week. You can always get my schedule here: http://www.rove.com/appeara…
@darkknigh Thanks for the feedback. I’ve only done Glenn Beck’s show twice so it’s new for me.
Here’s a link to my latest WSJ column—http://online.wsj.com/artic…
Will join O’Reilly tonight to talk about President Obama’s economic stimulus bill & Conyers subpoena
There we have it, his 140 character at a time plan to dominate the world and we are all enablers! You have been warned. For 8-years we did nothing. Doing nothing now could mean like the movie monster “thing” he will rise from the swamp (like the monster we think the hero has finally killed but rises out of the muck again!) to try and rule us all.
Follow Karl in great numbers at http://www.twitter.com/karlrove don’t say you were not warned. Next: I decode the Rush Limbaugh, FIX Noise and Bill O’Reilly Twitter accounts.
Must… save… world!
