Karl Rove to GOP: Work with Obama
politico.com ^ | Sarah Smith

Posted on 07/10/2014 4:33:51 PM PDT by cotton1706

Unlike many of his Republican colleagues, Karl Rove advocated Thursday for bipartisan compromise on immigration.

“Republicans have to look at this as an opportunity that they have to work,” the Republican strategist said on the Fox News program “Happening Now.”

“It’s an opportunity to get some things done to help secure the border.”

He suggested that in working with President Barack Obama’s $3.7 billion request for additional funds to deal with the current immigration crisis, Republicans could make policy gains like increasing the amount of border patrols.

“They ought to sit down in good faith,” he said of Republicans and the administration.

For Obama’s part, Rove recommended flexibility on what the president expected Congress to give him.

“I hope the president isn’t stuck in the mud on, ‘I have to have $3.7 billion,’ and the Republicans shouldn’t feel compelled to give it to him.”

No Karl you moron they need to put the National Guard on the border and lock it down. That’s where the money needs to go.

Of course he does. Treason has never been unacceptable to Karl Rove.

Sarah, the nation needs you...WHY WON’T YOU RUN FOR THE PRESIDENCY?

Look, I’m glad Sarah Tweets and does opinion pieces, and supports strong candidates, but we need her to run for office!

I know she won’t run, but I keep hoping that she will.

Who made this jackass the spokesman for everyone especially conservatives in the GOP? His meddling and W’s meddling in what would have been Conservative wins instead either being lost to DEMs or won by RINO’s are half of what got us to this point. I’m more than sick and tired of FOX News parading him and John McAmnesty on TV day after day up to several times a day in some cases. I’ve had enough of Rove and enough Rove’s GOP-E politics. Your policies the ones you lobby for are screwing our beloved nation over Mr. Rove and were sick and tired of it.

Comprehensive immigration reform MUST include:

1. Closing borders effectively meaning no one is able to cross the border illegally. There must be milestones to be satisfied before gong to step 2. below.

2. All illegals are placed at the end of line of foreigners waiting for permanent residence status in US.

Anything else is unacceptable to me.

Fox News has been consistent in promoting amnesty.

I saw a recent post where someone called him “Turn Blossom.”

That’s my favorite name for Rove.

$3.7 Billion over 1954 miles of the Tex-Mex border gives about $1.9 Million per mile.

That should be a good start on the fence. One the fence is up, we can talk.

The reason Tokyo Rove spells his "Karl" with a "K" is because he was named after Karl Marx.

Rove knows that this could be the Trojan Horse the amnesty supporters want. The Senate and the House pass Obama's bill and then add all kinds of things during the conference process. The result is comprehensive immigration reform, which is what Obama and Rove have wanted all along.

Rove is a snake.

The GOP left needs to get over its crush on illegals and amnesty. It’s not a romance that will help them, and we are seeing just how bad it can be for this country. Rove and the Bushefellers need to do this country a big favor, and go away. I hear Central American countries have lots of room for them, and they can enjoy the cultures they want to implant here.

Not too long ago, Rove was known around F.R. as, “Magnificent Bastard” .

Oh well, he’s retained half of that title.
