Rove, Off the Record

And off his nut, too, apparently. Rove Off The Record

This is the bit I want to tease out from his remark on Cindy Sheehan.

On The Anti-War Movement: Cindy Sheehan is a clown. There is no real anti-war movement. No serious politician, with anything to do with anything, would show his face at an anti-war rally...

It's interesting that Rove assumes that anything that doesn't have a politician willing to 'show his face' cannot be a movement. This perspective completely ignores actual people, from whom, just to show off my fancy education for a moment, all mandates, all sovereignty, and all power in the nation flow.
