I’m watching Dick Morris pitch his book on CSpan. The attitude of this guy is something else. Pretty obvious he thinks he is ‘all that’. Among other things he said Rice is ‘brilliant’ and is responsible for bringing North Korea to the table, getting Iran to back down and has performed above the call of duty in any job she has had (mushroom cloud). She will lead black people to new heights and that southerners will vote for her because ‘regionalism will transcend race’.
He told stories to show Hillary Clinton in the worst light possible and of course the stories cannot be verified as true or not true. He said Rice has never made a faux pas (calling Bush her husband). He claimed Rice will make inroads into the black vote and will carry the white vote in the South.
He also claimed the foreign press adores her and the French adore her. As my son visiting from Spain said, “What? is he kidding. Europe thinks she is a joke and is probably Bush’s mistress.”
The whole performance dripped with sarcasm, innuendo, gossip, personal opinion and oft-repeated statements that amounted to: Condi Rice is perfect. Rice is great and she doesn;t want to be president which is even better. It was also replete with lie after lie after lie. Bald faced BS.
But why would Dick Morris be out humping a book and be in Rice’s corner? I don’t know and don’t even want to give the twerpie lil dick any credit. He isn’t worth it. I still think Rice will be the Repub VP candidate and i still think Morris is a toadie who will be caught next time in bed with Karl Rove, they deserve each other.
Some prior Morris gems: Morris went on to say that if Westchester County D. A. Jeanine Pirro runs against Hillary Clinton in 2006, Hillary will eventually withdraw her name because, as Morris puts it, “Hillary can run against an opposite very well … but when she runs against a woman who’s pro-choice, pro-gun control, pro-affirmative action like Jeanine Pirro is, she has a hard time making distinctions. And Pirro’s issues – child abuse, internet porn, pedophilia, law & order – those are all Hillary’s issues, too. And, I think that Pirro gives Hillary a very tough fight. ….”
