Karl Rove meets his new "voters"

This is funny, annoying, disturbing, heartening, and shocking all at the same time:

Several hundred people stormed the small yard of President Bush's chief political strategist, Karl Rove, yesterday afternoon, pounding on his windows, shoving signs at others and challenging Rove to talk to them about a bill that deals with educational opportunities for immigrants [sic: it should read "illegal immigrants" -- LW]...

The crowd then grew more aggressive, fanning around the three accessible sides of Rove's house, tracking him through the many windows, waving signs that read "Say Yes to DREAM" and pounding on the glass...

And after about 30 minutes of goading by protesters in English and Spanish, Rove agreed to meet with two members of the coalition on the condition that the rest of the protesters board their buses and leave his street. The group obliged.

Rove opened his garage door and allowed Palacios and Inez Killingsworth to enter. The meeting lasted two minutes and ended with Rove closing the garage door on Palacios while she was still talking... Rove told them "he hoped we were proud to make his 14-year-old and 10-year-old cry..."

Closing the garage door on them is pretty sweet. In fact, I think the whole experience might do Karl some good. He actually got a chance to meet those people he thinks are going to vote for the Republicans. I'd say the chance of any of those "immigrant's rights advocates" of voting Republican is about one in a million.

I only hope some of them were waving Mexican flags, discussing how they were working closely with the Mexican consulate, building Communism, and all those other good Republican things.

This same group tried this same s*** last year at the offices of FAIR. Can you count all the lies in their press release?

Or, can you count all the lies in the press release for their Rove harassment? What's sad is the WaPo has simply parroted one of the main lies: the DREAM Act doesn't affect "immigrants," it affects "illegal immigrants." A big difference that both NPA and the WaPo gloss over.
