Karl Rove's reading list

Posted By Blake Hounshell Friday, March 21, 2008 - 2:42 PM Share

Matthew Sheffield of NewsBusters, a Web site dedicated to "exposing and combating liberal media bias," asked former Bush political svengali Karl Rove for his daily reads:

I get Mike Allen's overnight summary from Politico, I cruise RealClearPolitics.com, I get Taranto from the Wall Street Journal, I visit the Corner. I check Drudge, I check Fox News, I have a list of favorites that I sort of thumb through if I've got the time. I obviously read papers, the New York Times; the Wall Street Journal; when in Washington, the Washington Post if not, I get it online. I check out, most days, Instapundit, Power Line, Hugh Hewitt. Occasionally I'll dip into Just One Minute or visit the Captain's Quarters, I check out Michael Barone's blog, and I look forward to getting Opinion Journal, and I get the NCPA summary. And I also get a news summary, a news clip early in the morning of all the clips.

Cost of Bloodshed

This comment is actually for your previous posts Blake.

I have sensed that you are for withdrawal of troops from Iraq, and this is the result of a cost benefit analysis of the situation, which is net negative considering all economic and social costs and benefits and the shadow prices blah blah blah...

But I have one question, have you entered the cost of a possible mass bloodshed in Iraq after US withdrawal? Or is it like just when current administration didn't care about ongoing limited bloodshed that has been caused so far?
