Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?

Karl Rove has resigned. Far be it from me to pass judgment, we'll let history take care of that dirty work.

And as if today could get any more awesome...in Estonia, a blind man was caught drunk driving for the SECOND TIME today. The man had 3 passengers in his car giving him direction at the time of his arrest. God Bless Estonia, wherever it may be.*

Silly Karl! Those Jobs are For Guest Workers!

Karl Rove accidentally stepped in it last Thursday while speaking at a Republican Women's Luncheon. On the topic of Bush's comprehensive immigration reform plan, Rove's argument for the Administration's "Guest Worker Program" included the statement:

"I don't want my 17-year-old son to have to pick tomatoes or make beds in Las Vegas."

While there is no audio or video tape of the event, the White House has pretty much confirmed the snafu through White House Deputy Press Secretary Dana Perino who told ABC News, "the White House does not deny that Rove made the remark but it has been taken out of context."

I've racked my brain and can't think of a context in which this statement wouldn't be considered elitist and awful, but then again, I wasn't invited to the Republican Women's Luncheon, so I can't say for sure.
