his January 20 column, nationally syndicated columnist Robert D.
Novak wrote that "Former Clinton Adviser" Dick Morris is "asking for
a contribution between $25 and $100 or more to finance a critical
film documentary of Sen. Hillary Clinton." According to Novak, in a
mailing sent out by The Presidential Coalition, a group run by
Republican activist and discredited former congressional staffer
David Bossie, Morris wrote: "If you liked how the Swift Boat Veterans
turned the tide against John Kerry, you understand how a top Clinton
aide can turn the tables and stop a Clinton-style liberal from
becoming the next president of the United States."
> Morris writes a regular, syndicated column that appears in The
Hill, a Washington, D.C., newspaper, as well as several other
newspapers nationwide. Morris' columns are also featured on his
personal website, Vote.com, as well as conservative media outlets
such as Human Events Online, NewsMax.com, right-wing pundit David
Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com, and Family Security Matters.
> As Media Matters for America documented, the Swift Boat Veterans
for Truth (now Swift Vets and POWs for Truth) conducted a smear
campaign against Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) during the 2004 presidential
campaign, falsely attacking and distorting Kerry's Vietnam service
record. Media Matters has also documented numerous Morris falsehoods
and smears of Democrats. Most recently, Morris falsely claimed that
Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) voted against an amendment to a Senate
ethics reform bill that would have prevented legislators from hiring
family members to their campaign committees and political action
committees. In fact, Obama voted against a measure to table, or
effectively kill, the amendment. Morris subsequently apologized and
retracted the allegation.
> In addition to his syndicated column, Morris frequently appears
on Fox News as a "political analyst," and has often attacked Sen.
Clinton. As Media Matters noted, on the December 18 edition of
Hannity & Colmes, Morris claimed he would "leav[e] the country" if a
presidential ticket of Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) were to
win the White House." On the December 5 edition of The Big Story with
John Gibson, Morris called Sen. Clinton a "liar":
> MORRIS: Well, that's the -- it's one of these Hillary lies.
When she learned that Bill had been with Monica [Lewinsky] because of
the stain on the dress, she had to pretend that she didn't know a
year earlier when he told her, so that she could defend having called
it a vast right-wing conspiracy.
> Here, she spent two years telling New Yorkers she's undecided
about running for president so they'd get her -- get them to re-elect
her to the Senate, and now she has to go through this pantomime, the
charade of decision-making so she doesn't look like a liar for the
last two years --
> GIBSON: All right now, what about Barack Obama --
> MORRIS: -- which she is.
> According to the group's website, The Presidential
Coalition "exists to educate the American public of the value of
having principled conservative Republican leadership at all levels of
government." The website features whitewashed profiles of every
Republican president since Abraham Lincoln. For example, Richard
Nixon's profile contains no mention of the Watergate scandal, instead
noting simply that Nixon "resigned in 1974." George W. Bush's profile
contains no mention of the Iraq war, but simply notes that "after the
September 11th irruptions, he announced war on terrorism, and with
that made victory."
