So Dixie, you're a smart person who typically engages your brain and doesn't just knee-jerk. How does Rove perceive Americans, and what is it you dislike about him?
My impression of how Karl Rove sees Americans is as one party who suscribes to Republican ideals. In my opinion he's a divider who does not care as much about America as he does about winning at any cost.

Even though his remarks about Obama's remarks don't put ME specifically in a particular box - I dislike being told that American values.... are say.......for gun ownership whatever crap goes with it just for instance.....definately not MY values as an American. You may get one group that totally believes in what Rove says and that yes he speaks for us, we are American values and another group that shake their head in disbelief as that's NOT how we feel. Does that make the values of the group that doesn't agree any less American? In my opinion American values are as atypical as Americans themselves.

I'll get back later if I haven't answered your question, I've had knee surgery and I'm on painkillers, really sleepy...
