WASHINGTON, Oct. 14 - Karl Rove nosed his Jaguar out of the garage at his home in Northwest Washington in the predawn gloom, starting another day in which he would be dealing with a troubled Supreme Court nomination, posthurricane reconstruction and all the other issues that come across the desk of President Bush's most influential aide.
Rove drives a Jaguar?
Seeeeeeexy!
Jesus, if you think he's got legal trouble with the grand jury, wait until the corporate lawyers at Jaguar read that. They'll shit the entire Lanham Act.
That's the kind of thing that can really tarnish a brand. Forever.
When consumers ask themselves, "Gee, what kind of a man drives a Jaguar?" You think Jaguar wants this image coming to mind?
This is the kind of shit that finished Oldsmobile, you know.
He doesn't look like the Jaguar type. He looks like the oversized caddy or lincoln type. (With a driver.)

No, he doesn't look like the Jaguar type. He looks more like the Family Thruster type.

On TPM, it was noted that Rove drove the Jag one day, but the next day, the day he was to appear in front of the GJ for the 4th time, he drove a Toyota. Window-dressing to make himself look more like the common man?

He looks like the pushing a shopping cart under the bridge on 10th st. type to me.

'Jagoff'?
You have to from Pittsburgh. I'll be out there next week.
Anyhow, this is my first time here and I like your blog. I'll be back.
Just looking at Rove's face makes me physically ill.

I think the Jag is leaking brake fluid or some other slimy stuff.

I used to think the Jag was my dream car--but not if Rove drives one. Ugh--the whole ambience of them is sullied.

I pray it isn't an XK8 or XKR. I wouldn't want to see the image of such a beautiful car completely destoyed. Just the thought of him in any Jaguar is too horrible to bear.
Wish the reporter hadn't mentioned it.

I have to say that Rove in a Jag makes perfect sense to me. Other than secret agents, surely the only people to drive them are men with very small penises and frighteningly fragile egos.
