Morris: Clintons Are Sociopaths

Morris: Clintons Are Sociopaths

Former top White House political strategist Dick Morris said Wednesday that recent criticism by Bill and Hillary Clinton of President Bush's national security policy is so over the top that the former first couple have revealed themselves to be a couple of "sociopaths."

"It’s a good thing those two are sociopaths," he writes in the D.C. newspaper, The Hill. "Otherwise their consciences might bother them when they say things like that."

Morris zeroes in on Sen. Clinton's comments last Friday to WLIE radio host Mike Siegel, which the mainstream press has helpfully covered up, that Bush had "mishandled" the North Korean nuclear crisis, as well as ex-President Clinton's bizarre claim last week that his own policies actually stopped the rogue nation from obtaining "50" nuclear weapons.

"Wait a minute," blasts Morris. "It was (Bill) Clinton who negotiated the 1994 Framework Agreement with Pyongyang in which North Korea agreed to stop diverting plutonium from its nuclear plant in Yongbyon in return for the delivery of 500,000 metric tons of fuel annually and the construction of two light water nuclear power plants costing $4 billion."

The former Clinton insider recalled that by mid-August of 1998, newspaper reports indicated that U.S. intelligence agencies had detected a "huge secret underground complex in North Korea" that they suspected was "the centerpiece of an effort to revive the country’s … nuclear weapons program."

When the U.S. demanded that inspectors examine the sites in question, Pyongyang countered with a demand for $300 million in cash for the privilege. With that the Clintons quietly dropped the issue.

Fast forward to 2003, with American intelligence sources now estimating that North Korea has had one or two nuclear weapons since the mid-1990s.

"So why didn’t Clinton demand that North Korea disarm?" asks Morris. "Why did he keep funding, fuel and food flowing while Pyongyang broke its word?"

Rather than protect U.S. national security interests, the Clinton administration told Congress that the intelligence reports were wrong; that instead, Pyongyang was actually living up to its end of the bargain because the new North Korean nuke plant had yet to be reactivated.

"When the Senate voted, 80-11, in late 1998 'to condition funding [of the ’94 deal] on a presidential certification that North Korea has halted all nuclear activities,' Clinton continued to wink at North Korean noncompliance," Morris said.

If they are sociopaths then why did you assist them in their acquisition of power?

From the article: '...recent criticism by Bill and Hillary Clinton of President Bush's national security policy is so over the top that the former first couple have revealed themselves to be a couple of "sociopaths." '

This statement is not supported by the quotes from Morris in the article. He is saying "because they are sociopaths they have no consience". He did not say "because they said certain things recently this reveals that they are sociopaths". Morris appears to be basing his assertion that they are sociopaths on prior knowledge.

The roll call of shame; Republican senators who voted NOT to impeach the sociopath. (All DemocRats voted against impeachment)
Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe from Maine,
Arlen Specter from Pennsylvania,
John Chafee from Rhode Island,
Fred Thompson from Tennessee,
James Jeffords from Vermont,
John Warren from Virginia,
Slade Gorton from Washington,
Richard Shelby from Alabama,
and Ted Stevens from Alaska.

Looks like the Republicans need to clean house as well.

The only point I can remember Freepers arguing about is whether to call clinton a sociopath or a psychopath.

I lean toward psychopath myself, even if a few experts say the term is out of date. After all, these are the same experts who voted to remove homosexuality from the official list of mental illnesses and replace it with homophobia.

Using Morris' own definition of "sociopath," it looks like a case of "takes one to know one."

One can only hope that in the next election they will all tell her to piss off. I hold out the hope that she knows her political days are relatively short now. (Limited to her current term.) She has to get a VP nomination or secure the Presidential nomination. If she doesn't, it's all over.

The problem here in Maine is that even RINOs are better than our Democrats, the Reform party flew up its own backside and disappeared years ago, the Libertarians are in their third decade of 'getting organized' and the various conservative groups are too busy boring the voters with their stand on abortion (and waiting for God to reward them with victory) to actually run anyone who could, or should, win.

I fully understand the situation, Grut, but if the patriotic, God fearing, Americans don't take a stand against these ruthless. self-serving politicians (both Democrat and Republican) soon, then the republic will be lost. Surely there are such people still left in the great state of Maine.

Morris is getting real fat real fast. He seems to have gained 5 pounds every time I see him on Fox. If he's not careful he would rival Jerold Nadler in a year or so.

Morris does and says whatever will benefit Dick Morris. He is the ultimate wet-finger-in-the-wind "strategist." If he thought it would gain him to say the Clintons are gang-banging the Carvilles, he would.
