Rove, a Fox News contributor speaking on "Fox News Sunday," said of the Democrats, "Have these people no shame?"

He singled out Obama's comments from a Maryland campaign rally last Thursday: "Groups that receive foreign money are spending huge sums to influence American elections,'' the president said. "And they won't tell you where the money for those ads comes from. So this isn't just a threat to Democrats. This is a threat to our democracy."

Replied Rove on Sunday, "Does the president of the United States have such little regard for the office that he holds that he goes out there and makes these kind of baseless charges against his political enemies? This is just beyond the pale. How dare the president do this?"


For those who grew up with "Lost in Space'
The words that come to my mind are
"Oh my delicate back"

'How dare the president do this?'

1. I sometimes have trouble figuring if he's really a believer in what he says, or that he's totally
F.O.S. just saying this stuff as if he believes it! It's the latter... he needs a diaper change.

2. It is preemptive inoculation against criticism
It means the pugs are about to do something shameless.

So the first thing they do is kick up a dust cloud by throwing accusations of shamelessness.

By the time the dust settles everybody has been accused of shamelessness and the word has lost all meaning.

He did the same thing to Kerry; kick up a dust storm about dubious military records. By the time the dust settled, nobody wanted to talk about George's military record.

Classic Rove.
