[[Image:Karl Rove.jpg|right|thumb|"Your laws, like your bones, were made to be broken" - Karl Rove]]
'''Karl Rove''' (born December 25, 1950) is a [[Rino Backer]] known for losing the [[Congress]] to a [[Democrat]] takeover in 2006 and pursuing policies that resulted in the [[Republican Party]] to suffer landslide defeats in the 2008 elections. For an encore, perhaps to cater to socially liberal donors to his [[Super PAC]], in August 2012 Rove made vicious remarks against [[conservative]] [[Todd Akin]] in an unsuccessful attempt to force him to give up his nomination for the [[U.S. Senate]]. Furthering Rove's downward spiral, less than 2% of candidates backed by Rove's super pacs succeeded in the 2012 General Election.<ref>http://reporting.sunlightfoundation.com/2012/return_on_investment/</ref> Karl Rove is large and in charge. He is currently eating.

Rove sided with [[Planned Parenthood]] when [[Komen for the Cure]] temporarily stopped funding it, according to Karen Handel, who was an executive at Komen for the Cure at the time.<ref>http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/election-2012/wp/2012/09/11/rove-told-komen-back-off-planned-parenthood/</ref>

[[Robert Novak]] famously observed that Rove had become "part of the problem" as he was hurting the Republican Party towards the end of the [[George W. Bush Administration]].

By 2012, Rove had reinvented himself with funding by [[Las Vegas]] casino billionaires for Rove's [[Super PAC]], [[American Crossroads]] and its sister Super PAC, "American Crossroads GPS". Rove married for the third time and was flown on his honeymoon in a private jet owned by a [[Las Vegas]] casino mogul.

[[Liberal]] [[Newsweek]], the [[Wall Street Journal]], and [[Fox News Channel|Fox News]] promote Rove heavily, although it is unclear his political advice and the ads run by his [[American Crossroads]] is having any positive effect.

== Background ==

Rove was the Deputy Chief of Staff in the [[Bush administration]]. Rove's longtime partnership with [[George W. Bush]] dates back to Bush's terms as [[governor]] of [[Texas]]. Rove ran all of Bush's campaigns for governor and for president. Rove was credited as the "architect" of these elections.

Rove started his political career early, attending the University of [[Utah]] to work in the [[College Republican National Committee]].
Often called "the brains behind Bush" or "the Architect," Rove is credited as the chief architect of the 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns.

===Resignation===

On August 13, 2007, the Wall Street Journal published an interview with Rove in which he announced that he would be resigning from his position of deputy Chief of Staff at the end of the month. <ref>http://online.wsj.com/article/SB118698747711695773.html?mod=hpp_us_whats_news</ref> Rove explained the move as motivated by his dedication to his family.

'''Wayne LaPierre''' is the executive vice president of the [[National Rifle Association]]. In response to recent gun violence in the United States, he has suggested that every child in school be fitted with a handgun for protection, a plan which was harshly criticized by the mean nasty liberals. He is a verified insane person and a confirmed sociopath.
