Someone might tell Karl Rover that whales aren't fish:

Even when he returns to Texas, Rove said, he expects to be under attack for his role in advising Bush. "I realize that some of the Democrats are Captain Ahab and I'm the great white whale," he said. "I noticed the other day some Democratic staffers were quoted calling me the big fish. Well, I'm Moby-Dick and they're after me."

They happen to be mammals, who abandoned land (DC) for the safety of the sea of money( TEJAS). Kind of like Halliburton, who has likewise decided "to spend more time with their family," moving operations from Houston to Dubai:

Halliburton Co., currently the largest military contractor in Iraq with billions of dollars in Pentagon contracts, announced Sunday that it was planning to move its CEO and corporate headquarters from Houston to Dubai, the United Arab Emirates. The move could eventually save the firm a fortune in U.S. taxes, but it is raising serious questions about its priorities and prompting at least one possible congressional hearing. http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Politics/story?id=2943017


Karl "Tinkertoy" Rove and "Scuzzer" Libby are both good guise deep down; ask David Brooks or Rich Lowry. They know when they fall, their spidernets will save them.

Let's hope when Karl spends more time with his family, it is when they visit him in jail. Of course, Jeff Gannon will have no problem lobbying for his time in the shower stall there!

Below the belt? I don't think so: Guckert made more than 200 appearances at the White House during his two-year tenure with the fledging conservative websites GOPUSA and Talon News, attending 155 of 196 White House press briefings. He had little to no previous journalism experience, previously worked as a male escort, and was refused a congressional press pass.

more from the rawstory: Guckert made more than two dozen excursions to the White House when there were no scheduled briefings. On many of these days, the Press Office held press gaggles aboard Air Force One—which raises questions about what Guckert was doing at the White House. On other days, the president held photo opportunities.

Ok, back to Karl calling himself Moby Dick.

Snigger snigger....according to Hawthorne's "the purloined letter" you put the object in plain sight if you wish to hide it. Like a closeted wizard of ahs!

whispering of washington dc escort services, remember the recent madam's lengthy list of politicians who used her journalists i mean harlots: Politics – The 46 lbs of phone records, stored meticulously over the DC Madam's 13-year escort service, is a scandal in waiting that looms large over the nation's capital. And if the current court-ordered injunction is lifted, allowing Deborah Jeane Palfrey access to her files, she vows to send every last name and phone number to any journalist wanting them.

Is rove moby dick because he is on the madam's log of record? funny how our loose lips sink ships.
