What the hell is Joe Klein? A neo-liberal, a neo-con, an idiot -obviously.

[Pirate Smile]

What the hell is he?

They sometimes have him on shows as a liberal.

What a joke.

I don't know all that much about him except he is an asshole. Time columnist. I know he wrote a book re Clinton as an anonymous author.

Anyone have any more insight?

1. He's a stooge

Kinda like Combs on Fox. Never trusted the guy since Primary Colors.

3. Amen

He's a flaming opportunist who will kiss whichever ass seems to be on top.

Ignore, ignore, ignore.

[Oceansaway]

2. yep, asshole...he fits right in eh ...n/t

[Telly Savalas]

4. Wasn't he the backup center for the Bulls back in the Jordan days?

5. Are you watching Scarborough? He said

some telling things, like Cheney should answer for Iraq, mentioned many of the big stories, etc. Very out of character, but he was trying to deflect attention from Cheney? I'm also confused.
Dee Dee Meyers was great!

6. He is confusing. He defends so much of their crap, so often.

He reminds me of Pat Caddell. Just off the wall most of the time. Seems to hate Dems more then Repubs but then will occasionally say something coherent.

I don't know.:shrug:

7. What happened to Cadell?

Tweety seemd to be the last hold out on a man who was looking coked out and out of control. Eventually even Tweety couldn't take it and Cadell disappeared. Any idea where he is?

9. He became, of course, a Faux Democratic talking head.

A Dem-hating Dem is their favorite kind of Dem.

[bluedeminredstate]

13. Thanks.

I should have known he'd go to Faux, but frankly when he was going down the tubes on MSNBC I thought he was incapable of pulling it together for another gig. He's lost a lot of weight from when I last saw him.
:puke:

[babylonsister]

8. Who is Pat Cadel? Sorry, but I have no clue. nt

[Pirate Smile]

10. A Democratic strategist who seemed to hate Democrats.

He, of course, joined Faux.

[Pirate Smile]

11. This guy

[babylonsister]

15. Now THAT guy I remember as being run out prior to the '04

elections, as a Dem.
I will add no disparaging remarks. :evilgrin:

[Yupster]

16. Caddell was part of Jimmy Carter's inner circle

He was the one who told Carter on election eve that the final campaign polls had come in and there was a major change happening and the close election was going to turn out badly. Carter was going to lose the next day and likely lose big. It was quite a shock as the race had been seen as very close almost till the end.

That vignette happened on Airforce One flying from one rally to another.

12. He was revealed to be the anonomous author of Primary Colors

The book that posed as fiction to trash Clinton

[Zomby Woof]

14. He is also a Woody Guthrie biographer

His book "Woody Guthrie: A Life" is a fantastic biography.
