Dick Morris apologizes to Barack Obama
http://pundits.thehill.com/2007/01/17/i-apologize-to-sen-obama

I apologize to Sen. Obama (Dick Morris)
@ 3:06 pm

I want to retract the allegations in my column yesterday that criticized Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) for voting against a bill to prohibit campaign committees and PACs from paying spouses and relatives. In fact, he voted against tabling the bill.

I sincerely apologize to the senator for my mistaken reading of the record and want to commend him for his correct vote on the issue, unlike the majority of his fellow Democrats, including likely presidential candidates Sens. Joseph Biden Jr. (D-Del.), Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.).

This morning, somebody (tombstoned since) posted a column by Dick Morris excoriating Barack Obama for a vote on the ethics bill.

As it turned out, Obama actually voted exactly the opposite way and the idiot had to apologize.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Perhaps Morris...
Should have his sucking toes taken away from him for a while, a variation on the "time out".

3. Obama got that one right, and deserved applause when most were protecting status quo.

If he could learn to appreciate investigations of government corruption, I could come around to him in my top five. But not till then.
