Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In Rove Exposed, the bestselling author team of James Moore and Wayne Slater return to piece together the puzzle of Karl Rove's extraordinary political life. Through personal interviews with Rove himself as well as revealing stories from friends and foes alike, Moore and Slater uncover both the masterful skills and secret machinations of the President's chief political strategist. Hard-hitting and insightful, Rove Exposed sheds new light on the motivation behind the Administration's priorities and the tragic consequences of those actions as seen in Hurricane Katrina; makes the case for how Rove's vindictiveness led to the leaking of Valerie Plame's identity; and shows readers the politically driven motivation behind Rove's pursuit of everything from Social Security reform to Mideast policy. Book News Annotation:In this sequel to their earlier book on Rove, Bush's Brain,
journalists Moore and Slater add to their portrait of the
presidential political advisor whose "influence marks a transcendent
moment in American politics: the rise of an unelected consultant to a
position of unprecedented power." Here they provide more information
about Rove's political career, characterized by dirty tricks and a
single-minded pursuit of victory at any cost, and his unprecedented
influence over policy in the administration of George W. Bush.
Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Synopsis:With Bush as President, many suspect that the most powerful individual in the US is Karl Rove. Although Rove is officially listed as White House Senior Advisor, responsible for managing the Office of Political Affairs, the Office of Public Liaison, and the Office of Strategic Initiatives at the White House, he is, in fact, Bush's chief political strategist and his "political brain." Rove's hand is seen in virtually every presidential decision — whether it involves steel import tariffs, extending the war on terrorism, the tax cut, the Middle East crisis or the environment. This book will explore the history and character of Rove as well as taking a detailed look at current scandals surrounding him, such as the Valerie Plame CIA leak and response to hurricane Katrina.
