âThe only true thing about him is his consistent and utter lack of a relationship with the facts,â he continued. âHe has more hair than credibility, and the man is bald. So weâre not going to get down in the gutter with him and his outrageous fabrications.â
Just damn.
Such language! Prepare the fainting couch!
So weâre not going to get down in the gutter with him and his outrageous fabrications.
How in the world are Merrillâs comments â calling him names, making fun of the fact that heâs bald, using profanity â not getting into the gutter with him? Klein is despicable, but Merrill is doing Hillary no favors.
I donât think it hurts Hillary one bit. Probably the opposite. Her supporters are wanting her to come back swinging at this non stop smear campaign.
Your point is takenâŚhe is totally wading into the gutters here. But man, I am totally using that line about having less credibility than hair.
That is pretty funny shtick, there, Merrill. I know your position is difficultâyou cannot deny too loudly for fear of attracting attention, and you cannot ignore for fear of acquiescing. So use some funny lines to denigrate and dismiss. Well done.
You can use it, Davey. I can use it. But Hillaryâs campaign should not.
Ed Klein is a joke. But Merrill reacting in such an over-the-top way reinforces the impression (heightened by tone-deaf fools like Debbie Wasserman-Schultz) that the Clinton machine attacks anyone who criticizes Hillary, and creates the illusion that Ed Klein is being attacked because heâs somehow a threat.
I like this spokesperson. Thatâs the way to fight. I donât like to lose âclassyââŚ
Another right wing Hillary hater writes a book about Hillary. We all know how that is going to pan out. I donât think that Hillary Clinton is going to threaten the WH, and neither does any sane person believe this. VP Bidenâs supporters do seem to talk a lot and spread rumors on Hillary. So, it could be possible that Valerie Jarrett might have said something to somebody just to shake the boat up. Maybe Valerie is batting for VP Biden.
Ed Kleinâs constant go to is "an anonymous sourceâ who said Valerie Jarrett⌠This has been going on for years. If that source EVER existed, Iâm pretty sure Valerie cut that off a long time ago.
her campaign appears to be loaded down with these typesâŚ
Donât explain the joke, man. Let the press do it. itâs funnier than way.
The only people who seem to quote Ed Klein a lot are NEWSMAX.
What does that tell you?
His publisher is Regnery, who never met a lunatic Right-Wing Conspiracy they wouldnât publish.
What does that tell you?
I donât blame Hillaryâs spokesman for lashing out. This crap is getting more and more vindictive and hateful by the day.
Can somebody fix the comments section for Big Doorâs latest Kookfart?
But if Democrats donât spend all their time in the âcowering Democratâ poseâŚthe right wing might be MEAN to them!!!
Ed Klein is to literature what Sarah Palin is to intelligence.
I canât say anything worse about him.
Agreed. This is the kind of stuff that HRC needs. Let her give the measured, thoughtful responses. That what she, as the candidate, should be doing. Merrill is doing what attack dogs should do, and I think this kind of âreal talkâ resonates with the American people far more than nuanced, more polite commentary, particularly when the attack is such bullshit. Iâm not saying this should become a daily habit, but every once in a while it does a campaign good to be seen kicking somebody in the nuts.
Hey, even Sir Galahad carried a sword and stabbed people once in awhile.
This is a time honored tradition in minority communities, particularly the black community. You donât fight, you donât even get upset, you just talk about the person, and you keep talking and laughing until youâve made such a blasted fool of them that they slink away in shame. Mr. Merrill is playing The Dozens, and doing a pretty good job of it.
Heâs doing me and my blood pressure a favor.
Guy is a liar, deserves whatever gets thrown at him.
