[lbo-talk] Rove: "Liberals wanted therapy for 9/11 attackers..."

[B.]

"Liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and
wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and
understanding for our attackers," Rove said.
"Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the
attacks and prepared for war."

"Karl Rove should immediately and fully apologize for
his remarks or he should resign," Senate Democratic
leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said in a statement. "I
hope the president will join me in repudiating these
remarks."

Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean
called on Bush to "show some leadership and
unequivocally repudiate Rove's divisive and damaging
political rhetoric."

During a Senate hearing on Iraq in which Defense
Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and other military
leaders testified, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton,
D-N.Y., read Rove's statement and urged them to reject
the remarks. "I would hope that you and other members
of the administration would immediately repudiate such
an insulting comment from a high-ranking official in
the president's inner circle," Clinton said.
