Dick "Toe-sucker" Morris question: At what point after leaving the

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Clinton administration did he become a shameless RW whore? Right away, or only when Faux news started stuffing thousand dollar bills into his g-string? :shrug: (I listened a little to the guy's spiel on Hannity today...)

[kypp]

1. Honestly, I think he's always been a shameless ho...

Faux just brought it out in him.

And thx for that mental image of him in a g-string with bills crammed into it...:cry:

[Khephra]

2. I've never liked Ron Silver that much....

But I knew that I now hated him after finding out that he's working with Dick.

[eriffle]

3. Well, Clinton fired him

on the night of the DNC in 1996. He probably started his anti-Hillary book shortly after. He's a whore, all pundits are. These people are intelligent enough to play both sides when they have to. When you go to pundit school you learn to write position papers for both sides, and that's all he's doing now is being a RW walking position paper. I also think he's a power hungry behind the scenes guy a la Rove. Morris probably thought he was in control of Clinton and in fact Clinton was always in charge

4. Koch, Morris and Silver are Likudites

They support * because he kisses Sharon's ass - and that's the truth.

[dogtag]

8. Strange that they never, ever admit it.

Wolf Blitzer is in the club, IMO.

[TomClash]

13. He was Mossad and I suspect he ran LAP projects in his pre-CNN days

though of course his bio doesn't mention that.

I don't think he's that bad actually. He has Israeli Labor tendencies - he dislikes the Likud.

[MattBaggins]

16. Which of the three were mossad?

Morris?

[TomClash]

20. Blitzer n/t

9. Sorry for being ignorant but

What is a "likudite"?

[TomClash]

11. Someone who blindly supports the Likud, the right wing party in Israel nt

5. Toe "Dick-Sucker" Morris

I think fell out of favor after it was revealed that he let the hooker he was caught with listen in on his phone conversations with Clinton. He's like a hired gun-slinger who can walk either side of the street, I'm sure he crossed over quickly.

[Killarney]

6. He worked for both Republicans and Democrats

so he was never really on our side. He just goes where the money goes. After Clinton made him famous, he now makes his money bashing the Clintons.

[MattBaggins]

18. I remember Morris on Fox more than a few times

discussing things he did for Clinton. He actually left me thinking that Clinton must have been a bit sleazy if he actually hired this scumbag.

[DaveinMD]

7. Morris

worked for Trent Lott and Jesse Helms before and after he worked for Clinton.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

10. In other words, he is the epitome of the hired gun.

Thanks for the info.

[DaveinMD]

12. yep

I don't understand how people can work both sides. I'm a consultant and I could never work for even a moderate Republican.

[novadem]

14. Me neither

I can't understand how Matalin and Carville can sleep in the same bed at night.

[DaveinMD]

15. I understand that

People can have close relationships with people of opposite parties. Apathetic people piss me off more than some Republicans.

[Bush was AWOL]

17. he's playing all the right wingers that take his word as gospel

he's laughing at their dumbasses all the way to the bank.

[npincus]

19. it's hard to think straight with all those toes in your mouth

Dick (if I am not mistaken) worked for Republicans before working for CLinton- but was disloyal to Clinton (he let his hooker eavesdrop on Clinton reciting a draft of his convention acceptance speech), so in other words, he was always a no-good, two-faced piece of toe-sucking shit.
