Karl Rove Will Balance Kos In Newsweek

2:06 pm EST November 15th, 2007 | Media | 1 Comment

Ha, this is kind of funny considering the snit conservative bloggers went into when they found out Kos would be writing a column for Newsweek. They even dug through the con blogosphere to find out who it would be.

Less than three months after leaving the Bush White House, Karl Rove is becoming a member of a community not all that popular with administration officials: the media.

Newsweek has signed the president’s former deputy chief of staff as a commentator who will turn out several columns on the 2008 campaign through inauguration day. The move is not likely to prove popular among liberals who believe the mainstream media have been too soft on the Bush administration.

"We want to give readers a feel for what it’s like to be on the inside," says Newsweek Editor Jon Meacham. "Our readers are sophisticated enough to know that what they get from Karl has to be judged in the context of who Karl is…Readers will have to decide if he’s simply an apologist."

Of course he’s an apologist. In Rove’s diseased brain, George W. Bush is the greatest president ever – not the trainwreck president who Rove lost the election to Al Gore with, barely beat John Kerry and ended Republican control of both the House and the Senate.

Oh, and the war that has killed over 3,500 Americans for no good or honest reason.
