What bothers me is the deceit in being smart and having your way. A lot of people would succeed if they were able to lie and fabricate false stories...

Some people have morals wherein the victory is not worth the compromising ones values....

I fault Powell for knowing what he was reading to the Security Council a damnable lie but he was playing the game. His A---- was on the line and he knew it. He was being cut out and he wanted back in so he lied.

Rove is bright but when this thing with 60 Minutes came out I thought well Rove set this up. He gets these documents into the hands of those he knows will use it as they did so when it's proven they are fake.... which is still up in the air for me.......he can smile with his astute ability to get the other side in a jam.

Is there a difference between being intelligent and sly ?
