Karl Rove On Rick Perry: ‘I Didn’t Realize I Was Under His Personal Care’
Appearing on America Live Thursday, Karl Rove responded to Rick Perry‘s slam of him at last night’s debate, saying “I didn’t realize I was under his personal care.”
At last night’s Republican debate, when questioned over Karl Rove’s criticism of his labeling of Social Security as a “Ponzi scheme”, Perry hit back, saying “Karl’s been over the top for a long time in some of his remarks, so I’m not responsible for Karl anymore.”
Rove described his name being mentioned at a Presidential debate as an “odd moment”, but held firm to his criticism. “Governor Perry is responsible for what he writes and says,” Rove said. “What’s he upset about?”
“If you’re the governor of Texas, and you say I’m running for president and Social Security by any measure is a failure, if you say it is a violation of potentially the constitution, the federal government has no responsibility for either Social Security/Medicare and it ought to be returned to the states, then you have a responsibility to explain that to the American people, if you want to win, in a way that’s reassuring.”
Rove did have some nice things to say about the Texas Governor, describing him as “passionate, provocative, Texan to his core,” who “tends to drop his g’s like we in Texas tend to do,” and that if he ultimately became the Republican’s nominee, he wanted him to win.
