Karl Rove's Shrink-Wrapped Goodbye Gift
The presidential campaign has provided just a smattering of news in recent days, which makes sense considering we're in the closing days of summer.
But the folks at the White House provided us with a real gem today, in the form of Karl Rove's goodbye present. Colleagues shrink-wrapped his car, added a few patriotic stuffed animals, and even an Obama for President bumper sticker.
Watch below.
Dare we ask: What would you give Karl Rove as his goodbye present?

A one way train (and boat) ticket to Alcatrez.

Pudding. Lots and lots and lots and lots of pudding. No spoon.

A (We Wish You Were REALLY) Going Away gift for Karl? Hmmm...
== A framed wall poster of the 2006 Election Results? (the ACTUAL results, not Karl's "THE Math") (with his recent favorite phrase "Nice Try" watermarked in the background)
== The opportunity to spend some "quality time" - like 2-5 years - rooming with his old pal Jack Abramoff?
== A series of massages from Jeff Gannon? (or Larry Craig, if "Jeffy Lube" isn't available)

Saran wrapping Roves car was good but they should have wrapped Rove from head to toe. Put the Obama for President over his mouth tied a rope around his neck and hung him like a pinata handed out stick's and let everyone have at it.

I think the gift they gave him was nice and appropriate. While he is unpopular with the left, he did a good job in winning two presidential elections.

For my parting present, I would give Mr. Rove a hand to help him move out. Not a metaphorical one, mind you; a real one. Picked up from a street in Baghdad. Maybe he'll need a hand to help him accomplish his next mission.

Like most post I see there sure are a lot of angry people who could make a difference if they just went out and voted and not just complained all the time from their cozy chair and computer.

I couldn't help to notice, that mr: "ultimate American patriot",if you are not 100% with us (the only real good Americans........)is driving an imported Jaguar,kind of ironic in those times of "support and sacrifice" that those people have been so skillfully implanted in the real Americans ,the ones that sent their kids to Irak,and that drive Chevrolet...Another good one Karl....
