What the hell was Clinton thinking when he hired this talking penis on wheels?
If I was still doing Assclowns of the Week,
Dick Morris’s appearance on Handjob and Colmes last night would’ve earned him at least five of the ten spots. Regardless of your political party, if this doesn’t prove once and for all how much the right wing loathes the troops, this interview, which had to be deconstructed by Jeff Huber in two parts at
ePluribus Media in order to capture the sheer shrieking lunacy of the man who once had Bill Clinton’s ear, then you'd probably just as readily flatline on an EEG as would Morris.
I’ll start with the juiciest part so you don’t have to be teased:
I think that withdrawal from Iraq — it obviously gives al Qaeda a huge victory. Huge victory. On the other hand, if we stay in Iraq, it gives them the opportunity to kill more Americans, which they really like.
One of the things, though, that I think the antiwar crowd has not considered is that, if we’re putting the Americans right within their arms’ reach, they don’t have to come to Wall Street to kill Americans. They don’t have to knock down the trade center. They can do it around the corner, and convenience is a big factor when you’re a terrorist.
You want to know why many of our troops still don’t have adequate body armor or armor plating for their vehicles, why they’re living in squalor in military hospitals from coast to coast, why they’re being stop-lossed and IRR’d back into service, why they’re getting sent back to Iraq despite brain injuries, why Bush has been cutting their VA funding year after year, why we don’t allow their flag-draped coffins to be photographed, why Bush has yet to attend the funeral of a single killed US troop, why Rumsfeld allowed his name to be rubber-stamped at the bottom of the thousands of letters of condolence sent out, why they’re getting fucked out of medical disability pay on the increasingly used excuse of “pre-existing conditions”, why we‘re chasing them with bill collectors because they left equipment on the battlefield, why we’re keeping Guardsmen who’d signed up for two weekends a month for several consecutive tours of duty so they can miss watching their kids grow up and lose their jobs and fall into debt, so we can fuck these people out of their hard-earned pay when it comes time to settle debts?
<...>
However, the only thing offensive I see and hear is the douchebaggery of fat fucks like Morris bloviating about how wonderful it is that we can send IED and mortar fodder to Iraq so he can comfortably bloviate about such things in a climate-controlled Fox sound stage without ever having to worry about even being remotely challenged or called a douchebag by either Hannity or his token little liberal Alan Colmes.
Tell me, Dick, how we can be on the “offensive” when our young, injured, ill-trained and ill-equipped troops are spending all their time dodging mortar shells, snipers and looking out for virtually invisible IED’s instead of actually getting a handle on the suicide bombing and other manifestations of sectarian violence?
In the part of the universe that we, the intelligent and not-insane call the real world, that’s called being put on the defensive.
John Kerry’s botched joke? Gimme a fucking break. Just for making this statement, Morris ought to be waterboarded, drawn, quartered, honey and mesquite-roasted then fed to Herman Munster’s dragon beneath the stairs at 1313 Mockingbird fucking Lane then shit after twelve hours all over the streets of Waltham, Massachusetts.
