Dick Morris: Ron Paul 'Terrifying', Romney's 'Apostasies'
Sunday, 25 Dec 2011
With Ron Paul surging in Iowa polls, Dick Morris, the Fox News analyst and Republican strategist, warns of horrific consequences for the GOP if he wins the GOP nomination.
In a column released on Dickmorris.com this weekend, Morris writes:
"Ron Paul remains terrifying. He is really the ultimate liberal in the race. He wants to legalize drugs, repeal the Patriot Act, slash our military spending, pull out of Afghanistan, and remove all limits on abortion. On these issues, he’s way, way to the left of Obama. What makes him a conservative is hard to tell. But, whatever he is, he would be a disaster as the Republican candidate. His bland assertion in the last debate, that 'anyone' will beat Obama is both self-serving and inaccurate. He wouldn’t. Anyone who votes for Paul and is not brought up short by his denuding us in our defenses against terrorism and his passivity in the face of Iranian nuclear weapons, has to realize that nominating him is tantamount to re-electing Obama."
Morris notes that while Newt Gingrich leads as the favorite candidate among Tea Party Patriots polled, a splintering effect among more conservative candidates continues to help Romney.
The latest conservative-leaning candidate to see a surge is Rick Santorum, Morris says.
But Morris predicts that support for Romney will wane as a "buyer’s remorse may set in," especially as Republican primary voters realize they are backing the candidate who instituted Romneycare, a program similar to President Obama's healthcare plan. Also, conservatives will again focus on Romney's "apostasies" including his past support for abortion rights.
As conservatives realize a vote for any conservative other than Gingrich is a vote for Romney, Morris predicts a Gingrich come back.

Veterans respond to Dickhead Morris.

My name is Jesse. I am writing in response to your comments on the Sean Hannity show. I am a 25 yr old Marine Corps veteran. I enlisted when I was 17 and served from 2004-2008. While assigned to 3rd bn 4th mar I deployed to Iraq twice once to Fallujah and once to Al Quaim. I am now rated by the VA as 60% percent disabled and can no longer serve my country in a military capacity. So I choose to serve my community as a law enforcement officer instead. I have proven my patriotism through self-sacrifice and service and continue to do so daily. What have you done for your country lately (or ever) Mr Morris? I swore an oath to uphold and defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. That is why I support Ron Paul. He is the only candidate that truly sticks to the Constitution. So Mr Morris please explain to me how participating in our countries election process and supporting with my vote the Constitution is somehow unpatriotic. I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
Jesse

Dear Dick,
I bled in the jungles of Vietnam while you hid safely at home. I find it deeply insulting that you would so carelessly say these words: “Ron Paul would weaken America so much that no true patriot could be for Ron Paul.” You have shown your true colors along with your ignorance.
And now, I have something to say to you, sir: I support Ron Paul and everything he stands for. I am a veteran. I love this country more than you can imagine. You, sir, are a scumbag and a liar.
-Sgt. Adam Thomas, Jr, Vietnam War Veteran, 101st Airborne Div, U.S. Army, 1967-1970.

Mr. Dick,
Rarely in my life have I taken the time to write letters in response to pathetic, neoconservative, trolls, like yourself, who utter vitriolic lies to continue the livelihood of your brand of establishmentarianism. But in light of your recent claim that “No true patriot could be for Ron Paul,” I first saw red and then decided to let you know: (1) how wrong you are, (2) how right Ron Paul is, and (3) how pathetic and unpatriotic you are, draft-dodger!
Exactly why is it that a 10-year Army veteran, earning the rank of Sergeant First Class, who served on 3 deployments to Iraq, earned a Purple Heart, Bronze Star Medal, and numerous other decorations is not a patriot for supporting Dr. Ron Paul? My exemplary military service has only been ended because of the two failed back surgeries, brought on by a decade of infantry maneuvers and parachuting, that have left me disabled. I have no regrets from my actions in combat, other than wishing that I could have saved my comrades, and my support of Dr. Paul is not based out of those desires. I am honestly thankful for the opportunities that I have been given to engage in bloody warfare (oops, I’m speaking to the walls on this one since you wouldn’t fucking know anything about it, pussy!), and I believe that wars are at times necessary… just not necessary when they are produced out of the military-industrial complex’s grip on RINO’s who view the Constitution as an obstacle rather than law.
I, just like Dr. Paul, love this country and its Constitution. My patriotism is unwavering, just like Dr. Paul’s historic commitment to defend the Constitution and abide by its content. Many Paul supporters, particularly those who are in the military, hold the same patriotic values as I do and back the Champion of Liberty because of his patriotic, constitutional positions.
Neoconservatism might be your disgusting cup of tea, Mr. Dick, but your morbidly un-American attempt to dissuade true conservatives from supporting Dr. Paul needs to cease. You know very well how many of Dr. Paul’s supporters either have worn or are currently fucking wearing the uniforms of the services of the greatest nation on Earth. Your recent statement on Hannity’s establishment-based, evangelically-oriented, neoconservative, anti-Constitutional, anti-gentile talk show not only represented your disdain for true conservatives, but also served as a means of you taking a fat shit on all of those veterans who support Dr. Paul. Fuck you!
Mr. Dick, you have to realize that not all republicans and conservatives are selfish cocksuckers like you. Just because you are a plump and worthless “quasi-man” with an extremely annoying accent does not mean that you need to cling to the establishment and offend the sensitivities and values of real American patriots. Lots of “men” found their way out of the service (draft or not) during Vietnam, just not real men like my father (who wasn’t even a fucking citizen until the 90′s) or Dr. Paul. But it is dead fucking wrong for you to chastise so many who have served and discount their patriotism because you: desire to increase the size and scope of government; establish a one world government; regulate social values; use taxes as weapons and control measures; reduce entrepreneurship and self-reliance; enhance welfare programs through pork spending; increase constituents’ dependency on the government; print fiat money; establish an empirical aristocracy that spans as far as possible; restrict personal and economic liberties; denounce humankind’s inalienable rights; create a more robust military-industrial complex; remove the balance of powers with an imperial presidential seat; grow the Federal Reserve; shit on justice; etc.
Mr. Dick, this message was as kind as I could possibly write it. I am honestly a very courteous and polite person. I am a devoted husband, a caring father, a responsible gun-owner, a friendly neighbor, a virtuous nondenominational believer, an avid fly-fisherman, an expert shooter, a fastidious college student with a 4.0, and a TRUE PATRIOT! I normally speak and write with dignity and poise, but I think that my selection of vocabulary used in this message was well chosen. Please apologize, Mr. Dick, not only is it the right thing to do, but you might gain a higher sense of self-realization and move up a step on Maslow’s hierarchy if you just move past your callous and pathetic current state of being. Take off the horse-blinders of neoconservatism, Zionism (and don’t try to label me as an anti-Semitic, I just fail to see where the Constitution authorizes the U.S. Congress and other areas of government to act as a surrogate for the legislation, governance, and feeding hand of Israel), pompousness, and hate because you might just learn a thing or two about how right Dr. Paul truly is.
Sincerely,

P.S. Where were you after you graduated Columbia in 1967? A quick look on open sources came up with no definitive answer to your absence in Vietnam.
Mr Morris:
I was made aware of your comments on the Sean Hannity program in which you stated (erroneously) that true patriots could not support Ron Paul. Well, this one does. Unlike you, I served in the military (E Troop, 2d Squadron/ 2d Armored Cavalry Regiment) and saw combat at the Battle of 73 Easting in Operation Desert Storm.
I support Ron Paul unequivocally and enthusiastically. Do you dare to question my patriotism, sir?

Dick Morris,
You did not serve yet have the nerve to say what is patriotic? The fact that Ron gets more money from our soldiers that any other candidate would suggest that you claim most of our soldiers are not patriots.

Mr. Morris,
I caught your comment about how no true patriot could support Ron Paul. I’m a retired/disabled combat veteran of the War in Afghanistan, and a very patriotic American. I support Ron Paul for President. You’ve deeply insulted me and the cause for which I’ve dedicated so much of my life, so I have something to say to you: FUCK YOU sideways, you punk-ass little bitch pile of shit! Feel free to come get your ass kicked any time.

Dick (Just about sums it up),
I served in the United States Marine Corps and am proud to see
Congressman Paul live up to his oath to the Constitution. I don’t
appreciate being called “unpatriotic” by someone who has never
volunteered to serve in our nation’s military. You had your chance to
serve, you did not.
So, kindly, Sir, it’s time for you and all your chickenhawk friends to step aside and let the real patriots take back our Constitutional Republic.

Dear Dick,
As a combat veteran and Ron Paul supporter, I think you are a hypocrite and the last person who would know what patriotism is.
According to Thomas Jefferson dissent is the greatest form of patriotism and that is exactly what our vote for Ron Paul is. We no longer will support the status quo. What do you think about that Dick?
A compilation of videos I have collected from veterans over the last five months. As veterans we have a duty to the American people to let them know that we overwhelmingly support the candidate of peace and the champion of The Constitution. Please share.

Mr. Morris,
I am an active Coast Guardsman who has served for 5 years at sea. Every cutter I have served on has been unfit for sea, in other words we fought tooth and nail to stay afloat and not catch fire. I highly doubt you’ve been on a burning ship in the middle of the ocean, but trust me, it sucks. So after 5 years, I have suffered injuries that make me no longer fit for duty and I will be returning to civilian life soon. Being active duty I have seen politician after politician give empty speeches and downright lies to my shipmates and I. I am supporting Ron Paul because he’s NOT another empty suit and I fell your comment was a disgusting slap in the face to myself as well as every other member who HAS served. I urge you to apologize for your choice of words and think next time you might offend the vast majority of the military.

Mr. Morris,
I find your opinions that come out of your ignorant,obese mouth on the Hannity program reprehensible.I am a Navy veteran of Operation Desert Shield/Storm and support Ron Paul for President.I rarely get upset with the useless talk of ignorant trolls as yourself,but when those who have NEVER served question the patriotism of those who did,Most assuredly you will get a response from me.
Ron Paul has also served in the Air Force as a flight surgeon,What have you done for this country as an act of patriotism?I would be willing to wager you could spend hours in cogitation thinking of this and trying to find one remote instance where you gave of yourself in a patriotic manner that did not serve your selfish agenda in some capacity.
Ignorant and selfish sloths such as yourself with careers in the media have nothing to contribute to our nation that will ever foster or perpetuate Americanism.Happy holidays,and have another cheeseburger you fat bastard.

I am an Iraq war veteran of the United States Marine Corps and I support Ron Paul. If this country worried more about its border and less about other countries borders we would be safer and return a lot money back to the economy. Not sure how that is unpatriotic. I guess to love america today your suppose to want more of our troops to risk their lives in foreign affairs while the country goes bankrupt, yeah that sounds way more patriotic.

Mr. Morris:
Your statement on the ‘Bill O’Reilly’ show the other day that “Ron Paul would weaken America so much that no true patriot could be for Ron Paul.” was outrageous and insulting to the many brave and women currently serving in the armed forces. My son is currently an Army Infantryman serving in Kandahar, Afghanistan. He supports Ron Paul, as do many of his brothers and sisters, as evidenced y the Federal Election Commission reports on donations by both Active Duty and retired military personnel. TO make such an appalling and blanket statement disparages the intelligence, integrity and patriotism of some of the finest most upstanding men and women in America. I demand you issue an apology immediately, not only for the good of your somewhat diminished reputation, but also for the honor and integrity of the men and women in the armed forces who are fighting to maintain you ability to spew such ignorant and hateful words, even though they, and dare I say, most Americans disagree with them.

I forgot to add that Ron Paul would strength this country more than any other candidate. You statement that he would weaken it such that no real Patriot would support him is complete wrong and misleading of the principles for which Ron Paul stands. I suggest that you learn about Paul’s platform and stance on protecting our country for you make a further ass of yourself (if that is possible).

Ron Paul is more of a patriot than you or you friend who’s ass you kiss every time you are on the O’Rielly show. For some reason you think that a candidate needs to be a hawk to fit into your definition of a true American.
You need a reality check Mr. Moron. OReally is not a conservative patriot, he is a progressive neocon, as you are. That’s right a neocon. Just like Bush and Obama.
Ron Paul is the best Patriot that is running for office on either side of the fence. He is not only a Patriot, but he a Constitutionalist. Something that you seem to ignore in your warmongering rants that you do on Faux news.
Ron Paul is on par with Thomas Jefferson. He is one of those outstanding men that come along every so often that are TRUE Patriots and wants to help our nation get back to the Constitution.
Nowhere in Constitution does it suggest that we should be the policemen of the world, or should mind other countries’ affairs. Nor does it say that we should try to spread our democracy by bombing other countries.
It is also clear that all the people that lead our country need to lead by the principle of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Ever heard of those. If not, you can find a copy by typing “Constitution” and “Bill of Rights” into a Google search window. Bush and Obama along with the Patriot Act, now the NDAA and a few others have taken us further from the Constitution than any other Presidents have. We now appear to be living in a fascist police state with Obama as a dictator.
Wake your dump ass up and realize that our government is corrupt and bought by the banks. The banks and the Federal Reserve are the ones really running the country.
I for one am proud and thankful for Ron Paul to be our next President. Someone that will start turning around all the abuses made to our constitution and return our government back to its appropriate size. He will also deal with other countries as a friend and use diplomacy where need. He also stands for a strong national defense.
He is not an isolationist as many of you like to categorize him, he is a non interventionist. He wants to trade and be friends with our neighbors rather dropping bombs on their heads and killing hundreds of thousands innocent civilians.
Ron Paul is more of a Patriot than you could ever hope to be. And more than OReally could ever hope to be also.
I’m a veteran that believes in my oath to fight for the Constitution from foreign and domestic enemies, and it seems like we have more domestic enemies these days. Our government has turned from the Constitution and does not respect the freedom and liberties of the American citizens. The government is corrupt and bought by banks and corporations through the use of lobbyists.
Ron Paul will change all this, and I am proud to be a supporter of Ron Paul. He is the best Patriot we’ve had run for President since Kennedy.
So watch who you call unpatriotic, you OReally ass kissing twit.
best regards.

It’s Christmas morning. My daughter and husband are safe at home. I am more than happy. I as many other Americans know how much we are to be thankful to the Sons and Daughters in and of America who have gone to serve in America’s Armed Forces. They are for me, my family, Heroes. the letters of veterans writting in speaking to the charster of Ron Paul speaks loud and clearas to who truly should be and lead America. I certainly agree with our Veterans. My husband served in Vietnam. As a young girl, I was volunteering and addressing the wounds of our American Military Veterans. I started to notice then how poorly their lives and service were NOT being respected as well their personal concerns were coming to the forefront. From that time of service to present our Sons and Daughters have given every ounce of patriotism that could be asked. They of course would know more than any politician what IS needed here in OUR Country today. The Military Industry and So called Political Traitors Leaders have done everything but serving OUR country and filled their back pockets with and from OUR public coffers. Our sons and daughters have and continue to Serve Honorably. The issue at heart IS NOT to go order our men and women abroad, to war for other countries, BUT to adress the gross incalcuable deficits of political ineptness that has brought down our once proud country that it is today. I willingly would trade every soldier to be in the place of those people now supposedly serving in the peoples best interest on the hill as well those loathsome generals robbing also the Pentagon Blind along with those political mafia serving the House, Senate and Congress. Our men in Uniform as these Robbers we can NO longer Trust! Our soldiers we can TRUST when they individually and collectively stand up and say Ron Paul IS the right man for Presidency! America NEEDS a real Honest Leader and Role Model for America. He IS a man who respects and honors OUR Constitution! This IS America’s need in serving real Law. I am so happy OUR Sons a d Daughters are stepping up and speaking to address the lawlessness of our leaders as well to those who have hijacked America. I pray that All who have destroyed our country and robbed our country WILL be brought to Justice by the Soldiers who have served America Honorably. I pray Our Sons and Daughters will take back our country and throw out the riff-raft now in seats they to not deserve to sit in, as well throw out the corrupt Corporations and the Federal Reserve and banking system stealing without letup the American peoples. Thank God OUR Sons and Daughters are home. With them and Ron Paul, we will for sure take back our Country and make sure the America we love will be returned to the People’s of America. God Bless Our Veterans and America. Please spread the word for America’s Veterans to really serve America NOW in America alongside Ron Paul! America NEEDS you more than any other Country. Help to clean up America and take back from the Traitors now in office as well from these Mafia Industries stealing from America and the American People’s. Merry Christmas America, let’s join with the real heroes and Take Back America For America and our American Children. America’s Interest must be For and By the People’s Here at home! America’s Rights and Voice’s Must be Validated NOW! Stand up America and join together as one. Let’s show OUR Children who America really belongs to! Welcome Home America’s Heroes and let’s starting to kick butt and place OUR Constitution as the law of the land rather than these Mafia Thugs now in so called office. God Bless you and God Bless America!

Dick (what an appropriate name),
As a veteran of the first Gulf War in Iraq, I find your comments about Ron Paul and his supporters to be more than just offensive… they are unamerican and unpatriotic… to say the least. Just because someone doesn’t agree with your view of the world they couldn’t possibly be a patriot? Or maybe you don’t really think that way, but rather you are PAID to think that way… could that be it??
I’ll tell you what…
If you think that these wars for profit are so admirable, why don’t you let us bring our troops home and you and your neo-con, piece of shit buddies go over there and do some fighting?
Oh yeah, I forgot. You’re all cowards.
I could go on and on, but judging from the rest of these letters, I think you’re starting to get the idea. You sir, are a waste of human flesh.

Please share this with friends and family who “like Ron Paul except for his foreign policy.” This 14-minute mini-documentary is an easy-to-understand introduction into “blowback” and the effect of U.S. interventionist foreign policy on our national security.
