Bush Fired Karl Rove At Church - According To New Book

So it seems George Bush is a master at choosing the right place to deliver bad news. He chose a place where there would not be a messy scene or outburst, and that works just great for the person delivering the news…not so much for the receiver.

So what was this bad news? Well he told his old “bud” Karl Rove that things were heating up too much and it was time for him to go. And where did he do it? Church, where else?

According to a new book, Machiavelli’s Shadow by former Time magazine reporter Paul Alexander, Bush gave the bad news to Karl at the Episcopalian Church Rove sometimes attended. In a quote from the book: “They made their way to the front of the congregation. Then, during their time in the church, Bush gave Rove some stunning news. ‘Karl,’ Bush said, ‘there’s too much heat on you. It’s time for you to go.’”

The rest of the book reportedly does not portray Rove in a favorable light. It is filled with quotes from GOP operatives with less than complimentary things to say about him.

No wonder Bush called him “Fart Blossom”!
