Dick Morris thinks Obama administration should back Mubarak and his thugs, ‘aggressively confront’ protesters
Click here to view this media Dick Morris has always given me the creeps, because he just gives off this nasty toe-sucking-troll-who-lives-under-the-bridge vibe. I guess after last night, we can make that a fascist toe-sucking troll: MORRIS: I think that what Mubarak should be doing and what the Obama administration should be doing is aggressively confronting the demonstrators. I think that if we encourage the military to stand down, if we encourage the Mubarak supporters to refrain from controversy or even from violence, we really are opening the door to Islamic fundamentalist domination. That was Morris describing why President Obama is really to blame for the crisis in Egypt to Laura Ingraham last night on Fox’s The O’Reilly Factor . Notice that Morris couches the words so that he’s not directly calling for the American administration to engage in acts of violence, but he does clearly say we should openly condone and support a dictator’s street thugs in committing acts of violence. This came as part of Morris’ ongoing campaign to claim the President Obama “lost Egypt”, or as he put it last night, Obama “broke Egypt, and now he owns it” — a claim that seems to be gaining some circulation at Fox, which is increasingly desperate for anything, anything it can grasp for attacking Obama in this situation. Even Dick Morris’s disgusting grunts from under the bridge. Todd Gregory at Media Matters has more.
