He likes to tear the heads off small animals and he's a practicing philatelist (it sounds dirtier than it is), but there's plenty we don't know about Karl Rove. Or should I say MC Rove? Bush's phone tapping, attorney firing, pro-torturing Chief of Staff had a chance to rock it on the mic at the 2007 Radio-Television Correspondents Dinner,* and rock it he did!
Bear with the clip. The rapping doesn't stat until 5:42, but MC Rove is ALWAYS worth waiting for. If only we could get him on the White Rapper Show... he'd be the William Hung of hip-hop world.
*The Correspondents Dinner is the same annual event where Stephen Colbert last year gave such an scathing, dead-on, deadly funny speech that it will probably go down in history as one of the strongest critiques of George W. Bush's administration. How unsurprising that in a room full of journalists only the comedian had the cojones to speak the truth.

Sorry... Colbert's amazing speech was for the White House Correspondents Dinner, sponsored by the White House Correspondents' Association. They neutered themselves this year by having Rich Little as their featured entertainer.
This song and dance was for the Radio-Television Correspondents. Different, less prestigious organization and a much easier ticket to get. The WHCA is the one where all the news organizations pull out the stops to invite the year's notables and newsmakers. And, this year's exception aside, the WHCA usually has better entertainment.
