Any conservative who dares to criticize the nomination of Christine O’Donnell is getting smacked around and threatened with excommunication by the teabag base — even Karl Rove, that RINO.

Here’s one of the dimmest of the wingnut bloggers, Dan Riehl, demanding that Karl Rove be suspended from Fox News and “investigated” for not supporting the anti-masturbation, anti-gay, young earth creationist O’Donnell: Fox Should Suspend Rove And Investigate, Cornyn Must Resign.

Michelle Malkin has a very solid reaction to Karl Rove’s disgraceful behavior on Fox News tonight. That is not why Fox should suspend him and investigate. According to this report, Rove was working behind the scenes on  behalf of the Castle campaign to negotiate a deal that would have led to some Delaware Tea Party groups not supporting Christine O’Donnell, while giving Mike Castle a pass.

Especially given his comments on Fox News tonight, until this is resolved, it seems impossible to trust Rove as an objective analyst. In terms of the conservative movement, we should not simply ignore him, but proactively work to undermine Rove in whatever ways we can, given his obvious willingness to undermine us.

In which universe was Karl Rove ever “an objective analyst?” My goodness. That’s some high octane self-delusion there.

I apologize for inflicting that freakish nonsense on you, but Riehl’s attitude is typical of the Know Nothing Party; a universal call to lynch Karl Rove went out when he said O’Donnell might not be the smartest choice for the GOP.

And now, National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn has put out a statement embracing Christine O’Donnell.

It’s a teabag world. We’re all just steeping in it.
