A brief bit on Karl Rove

Robert Penn Warren already wrote this novel, so I'm-a gonna keep it brief. When Lizzie Bumiller writes that the "overhaul of the White House staff continued today as Karl Rove gave up his portfolio as senior policy coordinator to concentrate more on politics and November's midterm Congressional elections," oughtn't she identify at least one "policy" to which he has leant his "senior" "coordination."

Because as far as I can tell, our present governors make policy in the same way that the eight-year-old me used to make rules for the games that I played with my little brother: without foresight, favorable only to me, and infinitely malleable and revisable.
