Karl Rove sits down at an IHOP near Waco, Texas for a long interview with a couple of NY Times reporters, in which he civilly but forcefully defended himself against his critics. At the end of the interview, on their way out of the restaurant, Rove is twice stopped by well-wishers, both expressing how much they admire him. Later, Rove sends the two Timesmen a note: “I didn’t plant the guy at the IHOP or the woman at the hotel but it would be the subtle personal touch that the Evil Genius would do to throw you off the scent, don’t you think?”
There's a guy who doesn't let the bastards get him down.
