Welcoming committee for Karl Rove and Ken Mehlman

As Wizardkitten pointed out in the comments, we in Michigan will be "blessed" tomorrow with the presence of Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman and Karl Rove. Remember Karl? He's the guy on the left standing next to the Amway Guy:



Anyway, here's the schedule of events (as we understand it):
Wednesday (tomorrow):

12-1:30PM - Mike Bouchard and Ken Mehlman appear at the Lansing Country Club in Lansing

1-3PM - KARL ROVE visits the home of Robert Liggett, 625 Lakeshore Drive, Grosse Pointe Shores. Liggett is a Bush/Cheney Pioneer from the '04 campaign. Price: $25,000 a plate. No word if Amway Guy will be attending this one.

6-7:30 PM - Bouchard & Mehlman, Websters Restaurant in Kalamazoo

Thursday:

7:30-9AM - Bouchard and Mehlman at the Boatworks Restaurant in Holland

11:30AM-1:30 PM — Bouchard & Ken Mehlman at the University Club in Grand Rapids
If you happen to see Karl Rove or Ken Mehlman, make sure you extend them a warm Michigan welcome. I'm told there are groups of people who plan to do just that at various locations.

Oh gosh (0.00 / 0)
Where is the Unibersity Club, street-wise?

Great Lakes, Great Times, Great Scott

Best-ever line about Karl Rove (4.00 / 1)
By Triumph the Insult Comic Dog: "You're Bush's brain, Karl? I was expecting a much smaller man."

Please read "Out of Iraq: A Practical Plan for Withdrawal Now" by George McGovern and William R. Polk.

What would the charges be (4.00 / 1)
if I stood outside Liggets home with a poster board challenging Rove to a fight?  Any lawyers in here?

Putting conservatives in charge of our government makes about as much sense as GM hiring a CEO who hates cars.

Those purple handles (4.00 / 1)
on the "gift" bags...

It has to make you wonder what could be inside that they needed to cling to them for dear life during photo-ops.

Surely Bush's Brain could have had the RNC deliver whatever silly momentos were being distributed to his office or house.

How much money was in them Karl???
