What's in a Rove
MJS sees treason and betrayal:
Other revealing clues to what's in a Rove include this poetic anagram interpetation using "treason-betrayal" in each line with Rove added. Reads as follows:
A TREASONABLE TRY
A BETRAYAL RENT SO
ABLE TYRANT [ROVE] AROSE
Of course, for all you "strict constructionist" die hards out there, there are also the dictionary definitions of "rove". For instance: "To wander about at random... [...] To roam or wander around..." and so forth. However, there are other defining characteristics of "rove" which would seem to apply more exactly in this case. As in: "to stretch and twist (fibers) before spinning; ravel out". Or, "a slightly twisted and extended fiber or sliver." Under Karl Rove's picture in the dictionary it might one day read: "A roaming spinner of stretched and twisted fibs."
And then there is the "rover" - for which one definition would include: "a pirate" or a "pirate ship". Which certainly fits the bill when considering the ship of fools of which Mr. Rove just so happens to be an important "reeve". [one definition of "reeve" being: "A high officer of local administration appointed by the Anglo Saxon kings.] "Rove", by the way, used in the nautical sense, is also "a past tense partical of reeve." Heh. Isn't this fun?
But my favorite is the "rove beetle". Rove beetles themselves (the insect variety that is) are not necessarily non-beneficial insects. But, on the other hand, The Karl "Rove Beetle" seems to have evolved otherwise. Only retaining some of the more colorful characteristics of it's less pampered cousins as a kind of lifestyle choice. Being fond of maggots and making the bones disappear comes immediately to mind. Also, eating dung and living upon decaying matter, including corpses - where the Karl Rove Beetle incubates its young (which would explain the Karl Rove Beetle's attraction to Bob Novak) - seems to be the Karl Rove Beetle's preferred office. Which is where, I will suppose, the nickname "turd blossom" might have originated. A turn blossom being a euphemism for a, well, you know, a "cow pie" or "medow muffin". Two of the Karl Rove Beetle's favorite picnic spots from which he draws his elan vital and hatches new generations of shiteaters.
"When disturbed, the Rove Beetle raises the tip of its abdomen and may squirt a foul-smelling mist at its enemies." Eww. Just ask Valerie Plame Wilson or John McCain etc etc... or even that Matt Cooper double super secret agent guy at that fancy-boy magazine outfit.
The Karl Rove Power Beetle is something like something that crawled off of a cow-plop at the Crawford Ranch in Texas and developted an insatiable appetite for yellowcake and media maggots at which point it grew to an enormous size and layed its eggs all over the White House pirate ship. So, be careful where you step if you have to visit that fouled crows nest.
Try to picture it all as some kind of really bad grade B monster movie involving plenty of betrayal, treason, and wandering among messy ports of strange and twisted fibs.
I'm not sure how to stop the monster and save the country but I think it may involve the Air Force and electricity and flinging Judy Miller into the bubbling maw of an angry mountain.
LARK OVER.
O! what a fall was there, my countrymen; Then I, and you, and all of us fell down, Whilst bloody treason flourish'd over us. ~ Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
