Actually it’s totally funny. Look at Rove’s face! He’s like, ‘Yeah, I brung the action.’
Karl Rove was accosted by a protester who tried to handcuff and arrest the former Bush strategist “for treason” during a panel at a convention of mortgage bankers in San Francisco yesterday. For those attending the conference, which was planned before the mortgage meltdown, the incident added to an already glum mood. Some even took it personally: “We had streakers during the 1990s, but that was a joyful, happy thing,” one mortgage broker told the Times, adding that he “fondly recalled how a group of inebriated and naked bankers had once entertained the crowd. ‘But now everyone is blaming us for everything.’”
