Via Yahoo News:
CAIRO, Egypt - A series of explosions, including at least four car bombs, struck the Red Sea resort of Sham el-Sheik early Saturday, hitting several hotels packed with European and Egyptian tourists and killing at least 45 people in the deadliest attack in Egypt in nearly a decade.
This terrible attack, like the recent bombings in London, was obviously provoked by Egypt's invasion of Iraq... Oh, wait, never mind.
It must be Karl Rove's fault then.
Michelle malkin has a roundup here.
Karl Rove is not to blame for everything. In fact, there is a significant threat to America and the West looming out there.
Karl Rove is a professional political operative, with a background in political dirty tricks and media spin. It used to be when Americans spoke in a derogatory way of politicians, it was exactly the Rovian-manipulator-type that they were speaking of; The "snake-oil" salesman, the BS artist.
This Republican administration engaged in a Rovian-style spin to sell the American people on the notion that Iraq was the next best step after Afghanistan in the war on terror.
The criticism is that they put a political spin on intelligence to make the case, and that having made the case, underestimated the military requirements for war in Iraq as well as its effects, thereby putting the United States and our allies in a weakened position to fight the war on terror.
The criticism is a criticism of general incompetence.

We all understand you liberals hate Karl Rove. Don't you have anything else? Anything at all? Hatred is no basis for a major political party.
