For Dick Morris, war is simply good electoral strategy. During a double segment on last night’s (7/25/08) Hannity & Colmes. FOX News contributor Morris gleefully predicted to a horrified Alan Colmes that Israel would attack Iran within a timeframe based on the U.S. Elections. Morris, who never put his own tooshie on the line with military service, argued that an attack would be a good thing not just because of the situation with Iran but because it would help Senator John McCain get elected. With video.
In Part 1, at the end of his first go-round with Sean Hannity, Dick Morris giggled as he theorized that Iranian ayatollahs sighed with relief over Obama’s plan to place tougher sanctions on Iran, rather than threaten military action.
Alan Colmes asked if that wouldn’t be seen as beating the drums of war.
“Yeah,” Morris said enthusiastically. Not only did he admit that he wanted that, he said that Americans wanted it, too. With distasteful relish, Morris added, “Scaring the hell out of them... That’s the only way to give diplomacy a chance.”
Morris continued, “Right now the key question going on in Israel and in Iran, I would imagine – certainly in Israel, is will Obama let us use Iraq to attack Iran? And the betting among Isreali politicians is no.”
