I was online for more than twelve hours on 1.23.24. I spent that time gathering facts for the huge butterfly article forthcoming, and am now officially slope-eyed, which is a condition traditionally produced by scanning the slopes for mushrooms or other quarry until your eyes stop focussing. It can be produced by web searching, too. Anyway the search sent me to X, where someone did send me one link, which those who were really interested in the topic have probably already received, but it deserved to go up somewhere. Of Bill Clinton's assistants, Dick Morris may have had the lowest popularity rating. Vince Foster was pitiable; George Stephanopoulos was young; Webb Hubbell confessed embezzlement in a lovable way; Robert Reich was disarmingly frank about the Federal Reserve; Janet Reno was tragic; Joycelyn Elders was sympathetic; Hillary Clinton was positively admirable in some ways...and Rahm Emanuel had enough sense to maintain a low profile. Morris didn't care what people said about him, as was shown by the name he chose to use. Some people let that fact lead their minds all the way into the gutter.
Celebrity Gossip
Some people were snarking about Dick Morris, the political "spin doctor," having a scantily dressed man walking through a room where he was doing an interview. I posted a comment along the lines of "At least he has an undershirt. That's more than some people's out-of-town guests bring to Washington." So I think it's only fair to share Morris's explanation of the man in the tank top and shorts:
"
Context: Eileen McGann, the wife of Dick Morris, had a stroke 3 years ago and has been incapacitated since. The man seen walking by is her full-time caretaker who lives with the couple.
