Wonkette has noticed that all this talk about Karl Rove being the source of the Plame leak is causing a disproportionate use of Rove’s nickname “turd blossom” around the blogosphere.
Technorati shows 327 posts tagged turd blossom, 20 in the last day.
Make that 21. 😉
The use of Mr. Rove’s nickname is probably due to his ability to make something very unappetizing (cow patties) into something attractive (a flower).
If this doesn’t describe his activities in engineering the election of Mr. Bush, I don’t know what does.
It doesn’t take a Boy Genius to figure it out.
