(2005-06-24) — Just two days after White House political adviser Karl Rove said so-called ‘liberals’ wanted to respond to the 9/11 terror attacks with legal action and psychological counseling, Democrat party chief Howard Dean announced creation of a fund to provide Mr. Rove with anger-management therapy.

In a speech to the Conservative Party of New York Wednesday night, Mr. Rove said, “Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war. Liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers…I don’t know about you, but moderation and restraint is not what I felt as I watched the twin towers crumble to the earth.”

Today, Mr. Dean said, “Democrats should not take offense at Karl Rove’s remarks, which were aimed at liberals, not progressives like us. But as a doctor, I’m moved by compassion for the medical condition which produces these angry outbursts. Democrats have the fundraising muscle to get him the treatment he so desperately needs. It’s the least we can do to protect our nation from the threat he poses until he gets therapy.”
