Here’s a good one: Karl Rove thinks there’s no place in the White House for “self-serving leaks”. At least, that’s the advice he’s offering to Obama with a straight face.

Equally funny is the list of things that Rove advises Obama to encourage in the White House: “Plain speaking, straight talk, and dissent”. Oh yes, “forceful debate” too.

It’s always “Opposites Day” in Karl Rove’s universe, isn’t it?
