Hillary Clinton is heading to the Sunshine State this week to spend time with one of Florida’s most influential Democratic donors, trial lawyer John Morgan.
Morgan is not just praising Clinton’s candidacy, but actively bashing her potential Republican rivals.
In an interview with The Daily Beast, Morgan took shots at Wisconsin Governor and prospective 2016 candidate, Scott Walker:
“Walker would be the first president with a GED.”
The Democratic donor attempted to insult Walker for not obtaining a college degree, which he opted out of in order to get started with his career. Morgan continued, calling Walker cruel names in an effort to insult his intelligence:
“We just cannot have a dumb sh*t as president. Total dumb sh*t.”
While Walker does not have a college degree, neither do nearly 60 percent of American citizens. Though the price of obtaining a Bachelor’s degree has risen sharply, more Americans are pursuing degrees than in previous decades....

Morgan must have been drinking again when talking about Walker.
The guy can’t hold his liquor at all.
You’re right, they’re sneaky sobs.
If you think this is bad wait til Walker gets the nomination. The Dems and MSM will skewer and smear him night and day with this. I think for the most part they are being pretty quiet about it waiting to use it later.
The truth is you have to have a college degree to be a school teacher and a manager in most professions. Its not asking a lot to expect the President to have a college degree. This is a negative for Walker.
Its just like the liberals to make an issue of this. If he were their guy the hypocrites would be selling it as a plus - 'look he's just like us'.
John Morgan the ambulance chaser, elitist democrat “for the people” unless you’re a conservative. In that case you must be credentialed.
"Walker would be the first president with a GED. We just cannot have a dumb sh*t as president. Total dumb sh*t."Oh no you didn't.
I’m just telling you that this could be a problem for Walker. I’m sure if he gets nominated the opposition will pound this night and day and it will definitely have an impact.
Some of the dumbest people I have ever met were professors and some of the smartest were High School dropouts.

So Mr Morgan what did that make Harry Truman then? The most recent POTUS with no degree was Harry Truman. Nine of our presidents never went to college at all. Some names were were Van Buren, Jackson, Taylor, Fillmore {who passed the Bar}, Lincoln with only one year public education, Andrew Johnson, & Cleveland {another lawyer} are among them. Several went to military academies instead of college. It seems Mr Morgan’s own education was lacking in history otherwise he would not have made such a stupid statement not based on facts. LOL. Typical Liberal. Ran his mouth and hoped the public didn’t look for themselves to see if he was telling the truth LOL.
I agree. That fat bag of pus is a scum-bag even for an ambulance chasing lawyer. Every time I drive past one of his many billboards I feel the urge to puke.

The top-and-bottom-of-the-hour news reports are indicative of the station's management bent....and unless you're a freeper highly-trained in the tricks of the liberal reportage of news, it's sometimes difficult to pick up the subtleties of the station's bias.
For example, listen when they announce the week's employment figures and other state-of-the economy reports. The announcers breathlessly parrot the Obama administration's false and phoney economic figures as if they are gospel....and never report, even briefly, any ensuing criticisms of the figures (as, in all fairness and balance, they should)....NEVER.
The news on WFLA is their way or the highway.
No wonder the law firm of Moron & Moron has found a cozy home at this station....one hand greases the other in the wide, wide world of torts and cohorts.

OTOH, last year they moved Hannity’s show back to LIVE, 3-6PM, and moved that self-promoting clown Schnitt, to tape..

I’m guessing that you’re hoping that it will be a problem for Walker.
With the majority of voters not holding college degrees, and with many recent college grads finding themselves flipping burgers while living in Mom and Dad’s basement, the Dems can pound it all they want and all they’ll be doing with their elitism is drumming up more support for Walker.
In other words, it’s not a problem. Most graduates get more practical knowledge during the first year of a real job than they acquired in four years of college, and they know it. Walker has performed in the real world of politics; that’s the standard that will be applied, and that’s the standard that should be applied.
Frankly, I’m more concerned with whether or not he’s learned a lesson from his miserable experience with the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, his personal foray into crony capitalism at the state level. I very much want to hear him proclaim “never again” in that regard. If he instead decides to come up with excuses for why it didn’t work, but should have, or worse that it did work but is being misreported, that will go a long ways toward convincing me to stop considering him. I knew when he advanced that project initially that it would come to no good end and now he’s reaping the consequences.
I’m sorry, I really did mean to remove the first sentence of the above post before posting it, Georgia Girl. I realized it was an unnecessary remark, but I forgot to delete it.
You are exactly right and we need to relentlessly call them on it whenever they try this tactic. (It’s one of Alinsky’s rules.)
Well I’m not hoping for anything. I have always been lukewarm on Walker. He is going to be the GOPe default candidate now that Jeb is face planting. But don’t kid yourself about this college degree thing. The opposition will have a lot of people believing Walker is a dumb uneducated bumpkin. It doesn’t matter if its true or not the left and MSM will build that perception.
