Fox News Drops Dick Morris

Morris totally tanked his prediction on November’s election, but I find his analyses more interesting than that of the liber-wacky Dennis Kucinich, who Fox News recently hired. In any case, Morris is out at Fox:

Long time contributor Dick Morris will no longer be a talking head on Fox News Channel. “His contract is up and we will not be renewing it,” a spokesperson for the news network confirmed today. A perpetual presence during last year’s Presidential election, Morris has not been seen on FNC since November 12.

A terribly off-base prediction for the presidential election probably isn’t what made Fox not want to re-sign Morris. If they had intolerance for bad calls they wouldn’t have re-upped Karl Rove.

Sarah Palin is out at Fox News as well. They offered her a contract renewal, but it was reportedly a fraction of the million-dollar-a-year deal she had before, and she turned it down. Hopefully a Senate run is in her future — be it in Alaska or Arizona.

    Funny… I haven't watched Fox since November 6. Are they still on?

    So much for FOX News being a schill for the Republican party.

    Morris was interesting when he first defected to the light side from the Clinton Machine, but as he became more Republican, he seemed to me to be more Big R than conservative. Perhaps he got lost in the middle and became totally irrelevant; he still hasn`t figured out the right side and the left he knew is no longer in charge.

    As for Rove …….

    Sarah would be a great replacement for the crusty, moldy McLamenesty who`s belly fire is ignited only against Rs (Hagel).

    Depends on what you mean by Republican. If you are talking Conservative then no, if you are talking about the Dem light, Karl Rove version of the party they are still full steam ahead.

    She would be a great replacement for McShamesty, but not sure if she would wait for 4 more years to jump into the fray.

    Did Morris get fired for being a Dick?

    O/T….Sen Menedez claims that the only reason he did not reimburse his buddy for the trip was that it fell through the cracks. One big problem with that…..the reimbursement has cost him 87% of his personal wealth. Politicians are not willing to spend that much of their own money….other people's money sure, but never their own.

    O/T…..I think this says it all about labor unions. With their shrinking membership numbers they have turned to a new source of dues members…pot shop employees:

    The country is going to pot, and so are the unions.

    More likely for being a "dunk in liquid, sauce, gravy, dressing, salsa, etc. – excrement" !

    I read last night that the Fed. is preparing laws to cover the new legalization of pot in some states, along with large taxes – $50. / ounce, $500. annual license fees for sellers, etc.

    I've been wondering when they would be coming up with a tax for that. The only thing that surprised me is that it took them this long to decided to announce it.

  13. SignPainterGuy on February 6th, 2013 4:38 pm

    True, but if there`s another R nominee, McShamnesty might just have a heart attack attacking him / her and open up a spot. Not wishing him any ill will, just sayin` !

  14. SignPainterGuy on February 6th, 2013 4:51 pm

    Yep, me too ! Legalization has been a dem. wet dream for decades, so not having a plan collecting dust on a shelf or waiting in a drawer for those decades (ala; Porkulus, ObamaScare, etc.) is a bit surprising !

    Did he ever get that tooth fixed? For a while there, it looked like one of the women, whose toes he loved to suck, brought it to his mouth with the jack boot still on it.

  16. jeffythequick on February 6th, 2013 6:17 pm

    It's been their dream, just so they can tax the poor more.

  17. SignPainterGuy on February 6th, 2013 10:14 pm

    Well, I haven`t noticed any "snaggle-osis" lately, so I would assume he has had it repaired. Was it ever verified what actually caused the tooth break ? Bare toes, vibram soles, no diff to him ?

  18. SignPainterGuy on February 6th, 2013 10:19 pm

    This admin. and dems in general care only that their taxees are not their own cronies. Rich, poor, in the middle somewhere; makes no never-mind to them !
