And so the Left's co-Satan Trots Off into the Sunset

Karl Rove, the man with perhaps the best presidential nickname of all time, and the one perhaps most loathed by the kook fringe, is resigning.

Karl Rove, President Bush's longtime political adviser, is resigning as White House deputy chief of staff effective Aug. 31, and returning to Texas, marking a turning point for the Bush presidency.

Mr. Rove's departure removes one of the White House's most polarizing figures, and perhaps signals the effective end of the lame duck administration's role in shaping major domestic policy decisions, where the former Texas political consultant was a driving force. Mr. Rove revealed his plans in an interview with Paul Gigot, editor of The Wall Street Journal's editorial page.

The nut roots isn't quite going to be the same without ya, Karl. Oh, they still have co-Satan Cheney to roll themselves into a lather about, but you had a special place in their strange, hate filled hearts. Happy trails, Turd Blossom. I suspect we'll see you again in some capacity.
