“And out guest today on Meet the Press is Karl Rove,” Tim Russert announced. He then looked around. “Where is he?”
There was a sudden power outage. When the lights came back on, there was the hooded figure of Karl Rove seated next to Russert.
“There you are,” Russert said. “You’ve angered many Democrats with your remarks suggesting that liberals do not support military action to protect America. Do you think such anger is justified?”
“Their anger concerns me not,” Rove answered, “They are fools who will soon be destroyed. Traitors, all of them, and the road to our victory will be lined with their entrails!”
Senator Chuck Schumer screamed at the television. “He can’t say things like that! We have to get back at this Karl Rove!”
Schumer’s aide walked in. “I just got a call saying there will be a meeting by us liberals about Karl Rove in a mountain lair.”
“Then let’s head there right away!” Schumer shouted, grabbing his coat.
Soon Schumer was far in the mountains in a brick made lair. Inside were many liberals, most of whom he recognized. “So did you MoveOn.org people organize this meeting?” Schumer asked.
“No, we thought you did.”
Suddenly the doors and windows all slammed shut, a few torches the only light in the building. “Muh ha ha ha!” echoed an ungodly laugh.
“What is this!”
“Fools!” yelled a voice that seemed to come from nowhere, “You ran so readily into my trap.”
“Karl Rove!”
“Yes, it is I, and now you are trapped in my lair of horror! Soon, you will yearn for the torments of hell! Muh ha ha ha!”
All those inside screamed, but no earthly being could hear their voices.
Scott McClellan looked up from his talking points to President Bush. “Ever wonder what Karl Rove does for fun?”
“No.”
first??
Best one-word punchline EVER 🙂
That was definately one of the best IMW one-liners…
Keep up the good work!
If this were only true, life would be much more interesting AND free of liberals.
Who doesn’t love Karl Rove?
great
remarkable
grand
fine
marvelous

and overall highly regarded
🙂
If only this could happen in real life.
Help, I can’t breathe!
Rove has to be the best IMW character ever.
This is the coolest thing ever. Best parts were the evil laugh and the end. Rove is one of the coolest IMW characters ever.
Keep it up!
grin “They are fools who will soon be destroyed. Traitors, all of them, and the road to our victory will be lined with their entrails!”
I’m beginning to suspect that Rove wears a hood all the time because he’s really Rumsfeld…
It’s a conspiracy!
When I first saw this, I thought it looked awfully short for an IMW.
But after reading it, it was just the length it needed to be. Great ending!
Great IMW. Did you see how ‘American Dad’ ripped of Frank J’s Rove a couple of weeks ago. When they had a hooded Rove (looking a little like the emperor from what you could see) showed up I immediately thought of Frank’s Rove. Maybe he should sue. Or just be glad that he’s being ripped off by Hollywood. Way to go Frank!
I was postively salivating!:-) Wonder what means of locomotion Mr. Rove uses. Does he stand on a maglev platform, or does he simply glide through the air like the nun in “Blues Brothers?”
