Given the amount of time since then, waiting until now to divulge such a thing lacks credibility.
I’d say he was keeping his powder dry....F’em...
I don’t know. Dealing with the Clintons has shown to be a very dangerous business.
Perhaps, Dick had to let the Clinton fever die down a bit. He saw what happened to the people who told the truth on Clinton back in Bill’s prime.
Morris knew this before he helped Clinton get re-elected in 1996.
Agree.....
Oh come on - time doesn’t change facts. When that number of people are murdered there’s no statue of limitation...
amen. perhaps his mouth has been full of toes, since then. good grief. what a time to be alive in America.
I’m sure Dick Morris has lots of ammunition yet to be used at just the right time. I don’t doubt that for a second.
It’s for the next book.
“Given the amount of time since then, waiting until now to divulge such a thing lacks credibility”
I disagree entirely.
(1) Morris knows a lot about the Clintons, and especially what went on when the the Clinton’s were in the WH. It is not surprising that he doesn’t spill his guts on a lot of stuff.
(2) Once Clinton was an ex-President, there was really no reason to bring this sort of thing up. Clinton was no longer an overpowering political figure, no matter what Bill thought. There would be no reason to disclose as Clinton was no longer a political threat. However, Bill is getting a bit friskier now and needs to be taken down a peg. This bit of info, from a source that should know, is just thing to make this blowhard pull his neck back in.
There is no knowing what else Morris knows, other than it is likely voluminous. Never, never, piss off your trusted minions. They can exert a bit of political pressure as well. ;-)
Not necessarily... Maybe he feels he has nothing to lose now, and was waiting till it was strategically necessary to use that information)? I’ll try to give the benefit of the doubt here — coming out like that took guts and perhaps he may have just signed his “suicide” note if history is a judge.
I agree with you totally, Dick Morris is really not had that much credibility anyway. You can’t trust this man is up to feather his own nest. On the other side of the coin, Dick Morris has far more credibility than Bill Clinton. I believe that Janet Reno told Clinton that if he fired her she would beat the crap out of him and his security force. :)
If you want to get heard - you save your ammunition for when it will do the most good.
Had he divulged it at any other time, there would have been a collective "Ho hum" and that would've been then end of it.
Now is the perfect time. On topic and possibly do some good to diffuse the wick the left is trying to light.
I don’t know about that. You save your ammo until it can best be used. “Don’t fire until you see the whites of their eyes”. etc.
There’s another old adage that applies. Revenge is a dish best served cold. There’s a Heapin’ helpin’ of that comin’ right up.
Agreed. Let us all remember from whence Dickie boy first sprang: He was an insider lodged DEEEEEEP in the depths of the Clinton administration! He had a "falling out" with Hillary and they've been blood enemies ever since. He was just astute enough to realize the inevitable backlash against the rat party that would ensue with them and he jumped ship. His prognostications have never been very accurate and he us a great straight man for the celebrity pundits. Good for him, he's making a mint off the enemy, but let's just remember his roots.
Ditto. Frankly, I don't trust Morris as far as I can throw him. I think he's just a hustler.
Yup.
I completely agree. Fifteen years have passed and only NOW Morris thinks this is of historical or political importance? I ain't buying. Basically, I think Morris can say this with relative impunity. It's like saying: "Have you stopped beating your wife today?" There is no solid response.
The lack of credibility can be summed up with two words: "Dick Morris". The toe sucker was a lying weasel when he worked for Slick Willie; he didn't change his stripes when the two scoundels had a falling-out.
That’s what I was thinking...if he cared about his country, should he not have come clean about what he knows or what he heard?
