Why is Karl Rove called "Turd Blossom"?

Some papers refused to run a recent Doonesbury comic strip that used one of President Bush's nicknames for Karl Rove, "Turd Blossom." However, some agreed to run the strip because Bush really has called Rove that, as discussed here in The Guardian.

Bush's other nickname for the Boy Genius is "Turd Blossom" - a Texanism for a flower that blooms from cattle excrement. This year, there should be ample opportunity for him to earn the title.

I, for one, just can't wait to hear the next quaint scatalogical colloquialism from the mouth of Your President. Maybe he'll call Osama bin Laden a "Shit Head"! Wouldn't that be funny?

It's always funny to watch the Doonesbury Censor Dance, when they explain why they didn't carry that particular strip. Then others offer why they did carry it, showing how ballsy they are.

Hmm... giving out nicknames... who do we know that does that?
