Karl Rove And Stink, Part Three

Yesterday I posted about Karl Rove and what he had to say about the economy. I’m going to revisit what he said on Fox News once again today. By way of ThinkProgress.org this is what Mr. Rove said:

Last night on Fox News, former Bush aide Karl Rove claimed that the economy is partly responsible for his former boss’s record low approval ratings. But according to Rove, the media — not Bush’s disastrous policies — are to blame:

O’REILLY: The negativity toward President Bush is Iraq driven?

ROVE: I think it’s principally. I think the economy — the media has been beating the drum for years and years and years that the economy stinks. And after a while, that begins to color people’s attitudes.

Today while reading the news I found out that Ben Bernanke is saying that the economic outlook is worse.

Yo Karl, Ben Bernanke works for the U.S. government, not the news media! His drum beating might be coloring people’s attitudes too.
