Karl Rove GOP Architect of Family Values Divorces for 2nd Time

[AsianDivaGirlsWebDude]

Karl Rove who has been a crusader for Traditional/Family Values within the GOP and Right Wing for decades, and has been a leader in the anti-gay marriage movement (despite the fact that the father who raised him was gay), has divorced for the second time (his mother also divorced a few times, and she later committed suicide):

The progressive blogosphere is having a good laugh at self-professed "traditional marriage" defender Karl Rove, after a Texas court granted the former Bush White House political mastermind his second divorce.

The man referred to as "Bush's brain" ended his 24-year marriage to Darby Rove last week, said Dana Perino, the former Bush press secretary and now, apparently, the "family spokeswoman" for the Roves, according to Politico.

News that Rove is getting divorced became instant fodder for political commentators who have chafed over the years at what they see as Rove's cynical exploitation of Christian "values voters" to win elections.

"No one should really be surprised by the hypocrisy, especially because Rove himself is apparently not devoutly Christian, he simply specialized in playing to those who were," writes Sara Libby on her True/Slant blog. "Nor is it surprising that for all of gay marriage opponents? talk of how it will destroy 'traditional' marriage, Rove didn?t seem to have much respect for families to begin with."

Salon's Glenn Greenwald took a similar tack. "This is Rove's second 'traditional marriage' to end without death doing them part -- his next one will be his third traditional marriage," Greenwald quipped on his Twitter account.

The hypocrisy of Karl Rove knows no bounds...

Every time I read about another right wing nut job doing something shitty (divorce, cheating on wife, cruising for a BJ in an airport restroom) I think of this:

The Genius Of The Crowd
Charles Bukowski

there is enough treachery, hatred violence absurdity in the average
human being to supply any given army on any given day

and the best at murder are those who preach against it
and the best at hate are those who preach love
and the best at war finally are those who preach peace

those who preach god, need god
those who preach peace do not have peace
those who preach peace do not have love

beware the preachers
beware the knowers
beware those who are always reading books
beware those who either detest poverty
or are proud of it
beware those quick to praise
for they need praise in return
beware those who are quick to censor
they are afraid of what they do not know
beware those who seek constant crowds for
they are nothing alone
beware the average man the average woman
beware their love, their love is average
seeks average

but there is genius in their hatred
there is enough genius in their hatred to kill you
to kill anybody
not wanting solitude
not understanding solitude
they will attempt to destroy anything
that differs from their own
not being able to create art
they will not understand art
they will consider their failure as creators
only as a failure of the world
not being able to love fully
they will believe your love incomplete
and then they will hate you
and their hatred will be perfect

like a shining diamond
like a knife
like a mountain
like a tiger
like hemlock

their finest art
