WASHINGTON When first lady Hillary Clinton famously lashed out at foes as a "vast, right-wing conspiracy," there was no question in the minds of Democrats as to who was directing it, funding it and pulling the strings. It was Richard Mellon Scaife, an heir to fortunes made in banking, oil and aluminum who subsidized the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and underwrote countless conservative and Republican causes including "the Arkansas Project," specifically designed to expose Clinton scandals. But that was then. This is now.

Ditto
Scaife is just a boogey man the Clintons use to make less of the fact that most of the opposition comes from the grass roots. Scaife never did as much for the right compared to what Soros did for the left.
It’s been clear for some time that Scaife has been turning. I’m sorry to see Chris Ruddy sucking up to the clintons, however.
I wasn’t aware that Scaife was having these divorce problems. But it was clear even from the old glory days that the guy was a kook, although he used to be our kook.
Sorry about Ruddy, though. I guess he has to put food on the table.
That’s too bad.
“Dick Scaife” sounds vaguely like some kind of exotic venereal disease.
Scaife may not live long enough to see that day. Maybe none of us will, but that day will come.
My short ping list.
Who’s gonna pay us now? This means we’ll all have to find jobs!
“President Bush is the greatest political leader since Lincoln. He is a master military strategist. Genius is rarely recognized by contemporaries. Someday, historians will rank President Bush with the likes of Alexander, Julius Caesar and Napoleon.”
I don’t have a response but I am just marking to see the response of others.
Not a day goes by that I do not think that very same thought ... however, one does wish that our fearless leader had not so obviously studied PR and Public Speaking with "Mumbles" Mennino, the Mayor of Boston.
Also, being a rich kid, he does not know how to take care of the Republican Party, which hopefully might survive him. He also tends to surround himself with the wrong friends who can't tell him the straight story or perform their job. Instead he winds up with toads like this Chertoff character, or Johnny Sutton, or that Gonzalez idiot.
Newsmax started out strong but they haven’t produce much in the last years.
“Dick Scaife sounds vaguely like some kind of exotic venereal disease.”
LOL. STD might explain the name, and the change in political views.
Just another Media Matters now?
OMG, this must rank as one of the funniest remarks so far this year! ROFLMAO
Scaife has gravitated to the place he belongs. The Republican Party is a populist party when it is on it its game and it was on its game with Reagan. Somehow we got lost in a thousand points of light and compassionate conservatism and the establishment of the Teddy Kennedy Wing of the Republican Party.
I am STILL totally anti-clinton!!!! You all know why (see my tag-line if you don't)!
Soros is NOT interested in ending wars! clinton is NOT interested in "giving". Both are interested solely in pushing the international fascist New World Order world-state, with them an their cronies in charge!!!! They use large-scale "philanthropy" as one of many weapons to push their grandiose and evil agenda forward. Scaife should beware of his new "friends", as should we all!!
Their spam is brutal... and the damned pop-ups.
Depends on how Iraq looks a year from, now, right?
That sucks, man.
