A tribute to the legacy of Karl Rove to be sung to Elton John's Candle In The Wind....
Goodbye Karl Rove
Though we never saw you at all
We heard you were balding
At not too terribly tall.
You crawled out from the woodwork
And became bushie’s right hand man
Whispering in his brain
Telling him the plan.
And it seems to me
You did your best
To piss into the wind
Never taking any blame
When the scandals came in
And I’m glad I’ll never know you
Now I think I’ll take my pill
Your tenure ended long before
The scandals ever will….
Lonliness was tough
Until you met a yalie named george
Down in texas there and
An ideology you all did forge.
You took a drunken frat boy
And what else can I say
With the help of the supreme court
He became prez of the USA
And it seems to me
You did your best
To piss into the wind
Never taking any blame
When the scandals came in
And I’m glad I’ll never know you
Now I think I’ll take my pill
Your tenure ended long before
The scandals ever will….
from phuyaka's link: Rove reportedly tried to prepare Bush for this inevitability in late July by taking him on a special fishing trip so they could spend some quality time together and he could also give Bush a brief rundown on how the presidency works. Rove said he "didn't have the heart" to break the news to the president, who fell asleep in their rowboat with the fishing pole still in his hands. On his last day, nearly two weeks later, Rove spent the whole morning with Bush before the tear-jerking exit, ruffling his hair, telling him to "be brave" and "listen to Cheney," and explaining that he was going to have to be "the man of the White House now."

and, vado, i think you've outdone yourself. a new classic and the new re-lyric standard.
This song is the work of a lyrical genius.
Brilliant, vado; simply brilliant.
Loved the onion article too.
Thanks for the pick-me-up.
