EXPOSE MELANIE MORGAN'S PUBLICITY STUNT

[Norquist Nemesis]

Melanie Morgan has been orchestrating the attacks on Cindy Sheehan since day one. If the the RW attack machine's justification to attack Cindy Sheehan is that "people should know who she's aligning herself with", then it's time for the same from Melanie Morgan.

Melanie Morgan has a microphone with her radio show. Her targeted efforts are gaining her publicity, and she's laughing all the way to the bank.

Melanie Morgan was leading the "Truth Squad" of CON radio talk show personalities that went to Iraq recently on a mission to 'report the good news' that the 'Liberal' media 'refuses to air'. She is closely aligned with Progress for America whose footnote banner's tagline on their website is: "Mobilizing Conservative Voters to Impact Public Policy" - PFA Voter Fund PAC

EXPOSE Melanie Morgan.

1. yes its time for the same

CON radio indeed!

thanks for posting this, I get more education here at DU then I ever would some place else.

[deadparrot]

2. Google search brought up...Melanie Morgan, gambling addict?

I think it's the same person...

Let me just say that I don't support the smearing of anyone because of any disease, but this is interesting nonetheless...and if you're going to smear the grieving mother of a dead soldier, then you rate pretty low on my sympathy monitor.

4. Screw it....smear her with it

If she thought she had the same or similar goods on Cindy she would use it. No quarter asked and none given...this is war.

[deadparrot]

9. Some choice quotes...

She bitches about how Cindy "dishonors" her son. Listen to her own words about her behavior while pregnant:

"I was in a terrible environment, smoke-filled room, hardly taking care of myself. I was gambling right up until an hour before I gave birth."

Bringing her baby to the gambling table? Not terribly respectful of your child's health, eh?

Well after the baby's born, it'll surely stop...:eyes:

<snip>
It didn't. Two weeks after giving birth, she started gambling again. She brought CJ with her to the clubs. "He would sleep, and I would play," she recalls.

[MadHound]

22. It is the same Melanie Morgan

Read the article, especially the part at the end about her working with the California Council on Problem Gambling. Then go here<http://www.calproblemgambling.org/about_board.html#Executive%20Committee>and scroll down to the listing of who is on the Advisory Board. Gee, there's our girl Melanie:eyes:

Taking her kid to the card tables, more fine Republican values.:eyes:
So, what else has this hypocrite done? Let's find out.

[elehhhhna]

40. Her stepson smacked the baby & CPS got involved. Nice family.

[snooper2]

23. Yep, everyone should start playing poker when they show up..

according to the article, she can't see her stepson in Vegas because the casinos are too addicting...

[elehhhhna]

41. Fling some cards at her--she'll be too distracted to smear her.

[Norquist Nemesis]

43. ROFL!!!

[Howardx]

8. she reeks of "family values"

another RW hypocrite

[Warren DeMontague]

32. She left her newborn with her stepson, who physically abused him

so that she could go gambling.

"Then, when he would wake up and cry That was the worst part because people around you don't particularly appreciate a crying child," she says.

The cocktail waitresses and the other gamblers helped take care of him.

Her husband insisted that she stop bringing CJ to card games. So Morgan ordered her stepson Greg to babysit. Greg says that this was almost a daily occurrence.

By this time, Morgan was hiding from her husband. He put the baby in a car seat and drove around until he spotted his wife's car.

One night, her husband confronted Morgan with her son. "I put the baby in the car seat in the center of the round poker table on the green felt with the chips and the cards and everything surrounding my son," he says.

"And I looked at Morgan, and the other players were a little astonished. They're not used to seeing babies on the green felt," he says.

Sometimes he would bring the baby inside the card room and announce loudly, "Time to come home. Time to come home and be a mom and be my wife." It was, he says, "out of control."

One day, when Greg was looking after CJ, the baby wouldn't stop crying. He called her and asked her to come home.

She refused. Greg ended up slapping CJ hard in the face, leaving a large bruise.

A family doctor reported the bruise to child protective services, which ordered the couple to obtain family therapy. Morgan was told to quit gambling, or risk losing her baby.

Wow, she's really got the moral leverage to be fucking lecturing Cindy Sheehan on motherhood.

[Richard Steele]

3. Whatever happened with that "Goof Troop" trip to Iraq?

Where's all the "good news" they promised to bring back?

Seems like they came back eager... to change the subject!

[Kadie]

5. Here is the link to her bio at KSFO

[ninkasi]

33. They seem to have left out the gambling addiction...

Assuming that she doesn't gamble anymore, why is it that some people, like Morgan and Bush, have terrible addictions that harm others greatly, then are the harshest critics of humanity when they do not give in to the addiction anymore?

Some, when they reach the depths, try to use the experience to lift others from the same place...conservatives learn nothing, and substitute one addiction, gambling in this case, for another...vicious attacks on others.

[DinahMoeHum]

6. She's also involved with "Move America Forward", a real RW whackjob.

If you dare, visit this site and check out the pictures of her playing dress-up soldier, along with her cronies of RW radio.


:evilfrown:

[DoYouEverWonder]

7. Is this the one?

A real glamor girl.

Here she is with her sweetheart:

[randomelement]

12. Look closely

Has anyone seen these two together in public? Put a wig on him and a lot of lipstick and the two could be twins (please tell me they're not brother and sister). Maybe she's Rush in drag - wouldn't surprise me in the slightest

[lala_rawraw]

10. And Malkin too, get that broad a cup of

Ass whooping.

[steve2470]

11. Should we stoop to the private investigator level ?

or is that waaay too sleazy ?

[rocktivity]

13. Good idea--we need to take a close look at who MELANIE'S aligned with!

:bounce:

Maybe these people would like some details on the propaganda they are supporting.

[steve2470]

15. kick nt

[LTR]

16. I remember seeing her on 'Crossfire' last year

What a mean, evil bitch!

Just hostility and hatred abounds with her.

I think somebody should be cruel and mail her a deck of cards and some poker chips.

[Pachamama]

34. I have 2 neighbors: Barbara Boxer & MELANIE MORGAN!

Yep, that's right! I get the pleasure of Boxer and the disgust of Melanie right here in my neighborhood. When I see Boxer at the supermarket or locally, she and I stop to chat and I swear, I want to hug her. When I see Melanie Morgan, I have to stop myself from throwing up on the woman. She is delusional, full of herself and tries her darndest to stir things up around here in the area which is pretty much a very liberal area. A few times I have seen her and her car, I've come very close to putting a "bumper sticker" of the left persuasion on her car. But next time I see the bitch (and yes that's the nicest word I can think of this Michelle Malkin/Ann Coulter wanna-be) is that I'll ask her if she is planning on sending her son to fight this great war she supports. Her kid goes to school here locally.

She is truly got to be delusional to believe the things she spews....I was also sickened today to see that even in our local paper that was covering the vigils, that she was quoted extensively in the same article. To even give this lying piece of crap any ink to spew her lies is wrong. But interestingly enough, in the article it indicates she is on her way to Crawford next week to show her support for Bush and the War.

Here's the article: http://www.marinij.com/marin/ci_2952271

[Norquist Nemesis]

37. Stick a Welcome Sign in her yard

for her return. "Melanie! Your pals are calling you!"

For decorations, stick a scarecrow dressed in a straightjacket next to it...blonde wig and all. :evilgrin:

[deadparrot]

17. kick.

18. Melanie's recent propaganda quotes from Media Matters

http://mediamatters.org/archives/search.html?string=Melanie+Morgan&media=all&date_start=2004-04-19&date_end=&topic=&topic=&topic=&go=Search

She's clearly either delusional or attempting to increase the value of her branding.

[steve2470]

19. wacko article by her on defunding the UN

and liar...I am a talk radio host, a news analyst and commentator. I think I look like a younger Morgan Fairchild. If night time TV soaps were in, like in the days of "Dallas" and "Knots Landing" "Falcon's Crest" I would be a beautiful prime time gorgeous, glamorous TV Star. But they're not in, so I make my living as a lying hack on the Radio. What I really want to do is lie every day on a TV show, ...that day will come, someones got to replace Rita Cosby at Fox. I will say anything, I will do anything to convince people that President George W. Bush is the best, brightest, most sincere, courageous President we have ever had. And I Love the War in IRAQ. God, I just love any War. We should have more of them because it will help my career. I am wearing high heels but that won't stop me from jumping. Come on Jump with me.
Chamonix's diary :: ::

Anyway...People ask me who I admire most, who I love...well...my favorite, is one of yours, Zel Miller. He is a liar too. As a matter of fact, he was lying on O'Reilly tonight. He is so smart, educated and handsome and cute, in a fire and brimstone kind of way. And he also hates that woman, being eaten by red ants that is living in a ditch, just as much as I do. I can't stand what Cindy Sheehan is doing, I agree with Zel and I love all Dixiecrats

Anyway..I just wanted to stop by and tell you about my great interview I had today on Hardballs with Chris Matthews tonight. You see I have a far rightwing agenda and an organization called "Move America Forward" and I am going to drag people across American from LA to Crawford, in a Bus Caravan called "You don't speak for ME Cindy". We are going to speak the truth about the war and our President. You see "I feel the President has a little bit more on his plate than to listen to Cindy Sheehan, the President is entitled to some Down time. Besides, he's met with Cindy Sheehan and her stories have changed dramatically from the first time she met with him, until she hooked up with the MoveOn.org crowd. She doesn't need another meeting. I absolutely believe we have gotten the straight story from President Bush and his Administration from the beginning about the cause of the War, and the reason we went to War. The president made it clear from the beginning to the run up to the war that we were battling a fanaticial network of terrorist. He articulated perfectly why we went there. He has never made weapons of mass descruction the only criteria. That is only what the left has redefined and revised the war as and by the way..."WE'RE STILL GOING TO FIND WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION!" They love us in IRAQ. I was just there. Does America not remember the statue coming down and the cheering and the flowers? When I was in Iraq, 3 weeks ago, there were children greeting us and waving hello to us. There is ABSOLUTELY A CONNECTION BETWEEN IRAQ AND AL QAIDEA. THE REASON WE'RE IN IRAQ IS BECAUSE THE PLANES WENT FLYING INTO THE WORLD TRADE TOWERS & AL QAEDA IS DEFINATELY CONNECTED TO A GROUP OF TERRORIST THAT WERE OPPERATING OUT OF IRAQ UNDER THE DIRECTION OF SADAM HUSSAIN. 4000 Terrorist who were working with AL Qaeda were working in the Iraqi Country.
I don't ever remember hearing anyone in the Bush Administration say "We would pay for the war with Iraqi oil" (This is one place in my interview that Chris tells me to google it and that he is right..he even tried to tell me VP Cheney said we would pay for the war with Iraqi oil.)
Everything that is in dark print I said today on Hardball (She did say it..I watched with my own eyes as my jaw dropped, it also took a while to transcribe it from my tivo..this chick is really bananas. MSNBC is Desparate..Chris Matthews will put anyone on to piss us off..now back to me as her)......I would quote what I said about Cindy Sheehan on my Radio show but what I said is such bullshit, it's so full of lies and I am just bitter that more people know who Ann Coulter is than know who I am. I spew shit all day...I sit in front of that mic and can't wait for the light to go on so I can just lie and Push Bush Propaganda and become more famous...and what's funny is 1/2 the country believes the shit I tell them. All I want are my ratings to keep going up..I will say anything to cause a stir..get people talking, try and brainwash as many pathetic people as I can, and get you to hate me more. I want to be the female Sean...or O'Reilly. We need more female villians on the TV news shows. Can you believe they allow people to call those shows "News". Anyway...write me and let me know what you thought of what I said today on Chris Matthews "Hardball". Maybe someday soon..they will bring back nighttime TV Soaps...An updated Dallas would be great...then I would find my true calling, but until then I will keep Bashing the leftwing and their MoveOn agenda. If I keep it up, I am sure the Republican party will find a place for me. If I'm really lucky, maybe they'll put me on the ticket with Dick.

25. wacko quote by melanie

<snip>

Another extremist was Melanie Morgan, right-wing host of San Francisco's Hot Talk, who campaigned to put Arnie in power and lobbied to stop cinemas showing Fahrenheit 9/11. Morgan's solution to the Iraq conflict has also proved wildly popular. "You just keep killing them and at some point they might get the message that we're willing to kill more of them than they're going to kill of us," is basically it.
