Republican operative and dark money overlord Karl Rove’s moment of on-air discombobulation did not go unnoticed at Fox News’s rival network MSNBC. A few of the liberal network’s hosts took a moment to relish the spectacle of the man once known as “Bush’s brain” attempting to willfully disconnect from reality regarding the vote counts coming in from Ohio. “I don’t mean to cross-advertise here,” said Rachel Maddow, “but I want to note that conservative cable news network Fox News Channel – Fox News Channel called Ohio for Obama, but the on-air talent is refusing to concede that they believe it. Karl Rove is describing this as being just like 2000 and it is not over.” “Can you define that word ‘talent’ for the people who are not in this industry?” “Hardball” host Chris Matthews chimed in, “They happen to have positions. It doesn’t say anything about their quality.” “People who wear makeup and have cameras pointed at them,” Maddow clarified. Later in the segment, she took a moment to underscore what this meant in term’s of Rove’s role in the election itself. “What’s happening on the right is that one of the on-air contributors at the Fox News Channel is also one of the single largest outside spenders in this race in favor of Mitt Romney, who is Karl Rove, who is now trying to get – on air – the Fox News Channel to rescind its call in Ohio in favor of the candidate that he has bankrolled to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars,” she said. Chuck Todd agreed with her, but said that this was only to be expected, given that a significant portion of the conservative community has been living inside an information bubble of “skewed” polls and bad information. “A big chunk” of whatever side loses, he said, will refuse to accept the legitimacy of the election.

BUT BUT BUT HE'S "The Architect". Loser, just like the Globalist puppet "candidate" they put up yet again. What a tool
Hey man, good to see you posting here. I was in Screw York a week and a half ago for a social event. $6.50 for a draft beer at an over-rated hotel. Things like that would drive me to sobriety. Glad I got out on the road on Monday morning before Sandy hit later that evening.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Donald Trump has deleted some of the Twitter tirade he posted following President Barack Obama's re-election, and added new critiques of NBC's Brian Williams. Trump began tweeting before the election was called that it was "a total sham and a travesty." After news outlets projected that Obama won the election, Trump tweeted, "Well, back to the drawing board!" He posted more than 10 angry tweets, declaring "our nation is a once great nation divided" and "the world is laughing at us." He encouraged a "revolution in this country." "The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy," fumed the celebrity mogul. Williams showed some of Trump's tweets on air, saying he had "driven well past the last exit to relevance and veered into something closer to irresponsible." Trump tweeted a retort on Wednesday saying Williams "knows that I think his newscast has become totally boring so he took a shot at me last night." He added, "Wouldn't you love to have my ratings?" He also deleted some of Tuesday night's tirade, including tweets calling for revolution and incorrectly saying that Obama had lost the popular vote. In a new tweet Wednesday, he said the election was "the Republicans to win" but that Republican Mitt Romney hadn't connected with voters. Trump endorsed Romney in the presidential race and garnered publicity last year for questioning whether Obama was born in the U.S. and eligible to be president. "The Celebrity Apprentice" star recently promised to contribute $5 million to a charity of Obama's choice if the president released his college and passport records. host ed.ap.org/dynamic/sto...US_ELECTION_DONALD_TRUMP?

It is not easy reconstructing 'molded minds'... Trump, the attention whore, is wearing on my patience.
