Fox's Morris: Freed hostages "maybe" should have stayed in N. Korea and "live[d] with the consequences"
August 05, 2009 9:42 am ET
Criticizing Bill Clinton's "awful," "ridiculous" trip to North Korea, Fox News political contributor Dick Morris said of the two freed journalists: "I feel badly for the two journalists, but what were they doing in North Korea in the first place?" Morris later responded to a question about "how were we supposed to get them home" by stating: "Maybe they don't come home. Maybe they go to North Korea and they live with the consequences of their decision to go there."

Doncha just LOVE these wingnuts who are EXPERTS in every subject and know the thought processes of people they've never met??
Hey Dick: WHY DO YOU HATE HUMAN RIGHTS?! WHY DO YOU HATE JOURNALISM?! WHY DO YOU HATE FREEDOM?! WHY DO YOU HATE DEMOCRACY?!
Just more nonsense from more cowardly, traitorous scum on the right. We should throw DIck Morris in a NK prison.
That one's easy, NGE; he's a Repugnantcon...aka Republican. It's what they do...
What's wrong with you people?! Just becuase he worked for Clinton once, doesn't make him a democrat, nor does it make him a liberal! If that were the case I'M a conservative republican, seeing as just about every boss I've ever had has been one!
I don't even care if he's REGISTERED as a Democrat! That's also 100% irrelevant! Got news for you: I'M A REGISTERED REPUBLICAN!!! Why? Becuase I voted that way up until 2000, and where I live you can still vote in either primary, so there's never been a reason for me to change it. BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU (and you can gather as much from any of my regular postings) that I'm NOT at all conservative or a republican.
He TALKS like a republican, He WALKS like a republican, He LIES like a republican, He'll DIE like a republican, He THINKS like a republican, He STINKS like a republican...
HE'S A REPUBLICAN!
He has proved himself to be a "1st Class Prick"
I had almost forgot about his tryst with that Prostitute.
But hey it's hard to keep track of Dick's lies & Decide which to Ignore & which to Rebuke.
Speak truth to power.
Mr. News
I almost think it has a lot to do with the fact that these journalists worked for a network owned, or founded, or operated by, or somehow connected to Al Gore.
So, why do they hate Amurca!?!?!?
Is diplomacy dead in the world today... are we back to "with us or against us" mentality.
We either shun you or invade you
You're namesake is quite fitting Mr. Morris.
"Negotiate with Terrorist??" Really...they were in jail... what's Fox's line going to be about the three "hikers" in Iran who were captured?
This should be the title of all of his books...I'DON'T KNOW 1, I DON'T KNOW 2. etc.
His jealous of Clinton seems to ooze from him..notice how fidgety and upset he was getting.
DICK, you are not being heard outside of Fox...you are becoming an "unheard screamer". Goobye Mr. DICK.
Morris, no doubt, drifts off to sleep each night to heavenly visions of Bill Clinton's toes wiggly around in his sucking, salivating mouth.
Please someone give me some insight on this one.... I really, really, really can't understand it.
Do their people hate Obama/Bill Clinton that much?
That's pretty obvious, isn't it. But they also hate a lot more people and things that do not comply with right wing lunacy. At the risk of sounding like them, I no longer regard right wingers as loyal Americans...they are loyal only to extreme right wing ideology.
If the GOP says something stupid like Dick Morris, well, that's 13 million Asian-Americans... take the bait GOP, in the last 30 days you've alienated the African-Americans, Latino-Americans, why not go for the trifecta!
I bet some in GOP will criticize it as bad foreign policy...despite the outcome!!!
Unfortunately I don't believe that there is anything this admiration could do that would receive praise from the GOP talking heads. There job is to be negative everyday no matter what happens. The cash for clunkers program apparently went great, exceeded their expectations and talking heads are using it against Obama.
Note to Dick and the Fox host: these aren't "girls" who stayed out past curfew and should be taught a lesson. These are American journalists who were sentenced to hard labor for 12 years in a closed door trial.
The nutjobs will probably say that Clinon is assoiating with and/or appeasing the terrorists, forever missing the point that in ONE day he negotiated the release of these jounalists.
Only right-wing shills can be so inhuman...
Maybe you should have stayed with the prostitutes and continued sucking their toes and lived with the consequences. Instead, Eileen gets co-authorship on all of your columns and books and still has your balls in a vice grip. You hypocritcal rat. Anyone else ready to attend a town hall during this recess and beat the hell out of some birthers? Sorry for going off subject.
When you're in trouble, a Republican will tell you why helping you is a bad idea.
Of course,Dick Morris, after the Democrat has helped you, will say why helping you was a bad idea.
Amazing.
Look at Dick...he is falling behind on the hate merry=go=round and needs an oomph!! Dick, this will certainly makes you look more Dickier than you already are. Dick, do you have a family**? And if this was your family?
**Not to include Big Toeny or Little Toeny.
A well executed plan. Brilliant. Sec. of State Clinton, got the N. Korean government upset. Enter Pres. Clinton, chit-chat here, chit-chat there, every-where a chit-chat...
I imagine:
Pres. Clinton hit ground, itinerary set, and words were spoken. Kim got acknowledgment, apology, and his pride.
Like anyone in power, pride is a key element in a persons profile. So what, if N. Korea got respect? That is the way to treat people, not with our pride. Love is to a degree, and pride stops kindness. That is all that Kim wanted, acknowledgment. Play to a tyrants ego, and words will stop violence.
Who does Mr. Morris work for, or his affiliations? Sounds like a challenge, for the pros.

Yeah, thought so.
Caller: "Considering that we live in an age of huge deficits, I'd like to know who paid for that big jet to fly to North Korea.."
Ingraham: "Hey, good point, me too!"
Caller: "I'd also like to know who paid to have Bill Clinton go pick up these two gals...I wonder if Al Gore offered HIS jet.."
Ingraham (laughing) "Yeah, maybe we should ask!"
1. Soulless creeps like this caller only care about budget deficits when federal money is being used to rescue people. Want to drop bombs on Middle-Easterners? Who cares how much it costs- go for it!
2. These women are not journalists, they aren't Americans. They are just "gals" who got what they deserved, and now it's cost us a lot of money to rescue them. Maybe next time they'll just stay in the kitchen, where they belong.
Oh and BTW, I didn't appreciate the totally predictable but utterly tasteless "Bill Clinton flies off to meet chicks" jokes that every single late-night yakker felt required to indulge in last night. Give it a rest, idiots.
What's Dubya been up to lately? Getting ready for his "library" to open?
