Since Judith Regan slept with Bernard Kerik -

[zbdent]

Since Judith Regan had an affair with Bernard B. Kerik (who had a NYTimes bestseller), the following question is valid. Maybe we should even ask her the question any time she makes a public appearance.

Did she sleep with any other NYTimes Bestseller authors? Or was that how many of them got their books published in the first place? (aside from being able to find Regnery Publishing). Maybe we should ask the authors the question too . . .

1. Maybe her attraction to Kerik was based on him being

a bad boy-(gross), taking a walk on the wild side?

[TrueAmerican]

2. My money is on Bill O'Reilly

They both did work at Fox.

[On the Road]

3. Howard Stern Denies an Affair

and I tend to believe him, although he says there was sexual tension there, "certainly on my part."

Interesting enough, Stern caught wind of Reagan's involvement with Kerik at the time. She first spoke glowingly of him, and then later, after the affair was over, began to speak very poorly of him. He knew something was going on, but only found out recently what it was.

4. Well, remember, he was pretty okay with Bush for quite some time

and was very very "Kill the Arab Bastards who took down the WTC" for quite some time. I turned him off when he kept saying that we should get behind W because "he's the President".

It wasn't until the FCC really took aim at him (and pulling up files from years ago) that he realized that he had lain down with the snakes.

At that point, then, I wouldn't be surprised if Judith suddenly started hating Howard.

5. Add Richard MARCINKO to the List, a KERIK Look-alike

And I'm going to claim credit, because way back when, when she had the interview show on Faux, she featured KERIK with his book, The Lost Son, and I intuited BACK THEN that there was something musky in the air between them. She would ask her question, then while he spoke she would gaze at him, lids lowered, as though hypnotized. The Shrubbites should route all "intelligence" and vetting through ME! When she got to the part of 9-11, she asked him where he was when the planes hit. He said, "I was stepping out of the shower." Pause. She was visualizing. "At my office." Pause. "After working out." Now it is said that she and he were work-out partners. Throughout the interview she was weaving back and forth between mothering him for his "lost" mother and eating him alive sexually. I saw it then.

Here're are two dynamite links nailing Judy-Hot-Sex-REGAN:

http://newyorkmetro.com/nymetro/news/media/columns/medialife/152/

.... Then Judith and Rupert found each other -- and ReganBooks was born. Not only did their commercial instincts mesh, but Judy's what's-the-world-ever-done-for-me politics were highly compatible with the Murdoch view.

And then the sex part. It's a one-woman show.

I have never heard anyone talk about sex the way Judy does. I have never heard anyone talk about their sexual partners the way Judy does. I have never heard anyone analyze individual motivations, the workings of the marketplace, and politics, too, in such precisely sexual terms. The other day, on her show, she kept interrupting her tempered guests on the subject of why women like Bill Clinton, and, voice rising, saying: "They want to have sex with him -- that's why they like him!"

Early in her career at Simon & Schuster, she published a book called The Rogue Warrior and fought tooth and nail for a full-face cover photo of the author. "Don't they understand?" she stormed to me. "Women will buy this because they want to fuck him!" She got the full face and a best-seller.

Regan looked straight into the camera and for almost 10 minutes, delivered a pseudo stream-of-consciousness poetry riff mocking Clinton. Referring to his sad boyhood, she mocked his loneliness, then proclaimed that he built himself up and called himself KING, because "I am rich and I can do what I want!" She likened him to the cast out Socks, and envisioned him an old man meeting up with Socks at 125th street, both holding tin cups. ....

It was incredibly vicious. What was especially appalling was how she took the most painful aspects of Bill's background--his truly grievous childhood--and twisted them, using them to mock him. If this wasn't the "politics of personal destruction" I don't know how else you could describe this horrific display. ....

9. Judy Likes Her Boy Toys Ruff-Ruff

[Skidmore]

18. Wonder if Clinton

turned her advances down? Sounds like a rejected woman's spite to me.

[forgethell]

6. Why do we want to know this??

Judith Regan is not in office. Kerik is not going to be. Leave 'em alone.

[UTUSN]

8. As Always, with This Type of Topic, It's about the Hypocrisy

Hypocrisy is the common thread that runs through various different subjects, whether it's "outing" wingnut Gays who vote against their group's interests, or whether it's THURMOND having sex with his Black employee while being a racist, or in sexual matters GINGRICH, Henry HYDE, the Louisiana Representative who resigned, or Asa HUTCHINSON and Laura INGRAHAM having affairs while all of these were moralizing and lynching CLINTON.

In Judy's case, as the 2nd link (above) observes (the one by our own Gloria), she was blistering CLINTON about his poor background while she was laying KERIK who had a similar or worse one. It's not the sex, it's the hypocrisy.

[forgethell]

10. Bah! Humbug!

It's about intimidation, a very un-liberal thing to do. And one that cqn be used against us, too.

[UTUSN]

11. We're Intimidating REGAN? & Like Intimidation Has NOT

been used against us for, lo, these 10 years. I submit that our nobility has not gotten us much. We are dealing with THUGS. All of the great Liberal things that HUMPHREY, McGOVERN, MONDALE, DUKAKIS, GORE, and KERRY would have done do not EXIST because they are more decent and noble than the jerks who beat them. Yes, wingnuts intimidate, jeer, ridicule, gloat, glory in their opponents' misfortunes. And the "pure" form of Liberal supposedly does not. I don't think the pure of any ideal exists, and sorry but (actually I'm NOT sorry) I want all of the good that Liberalism might do to actually happen, and it canNOT by not fighting and WINNING. Let the truth of the cliche, "All's fair ..." sink in.

The cadre of posters who ALWAYS argue against the "hypocrisy" angle can never be convinced, so what is there to say?

As for not being so "pure" and "ideal", as James JOYCE said, "It's too HARD (in the sense of HARD) *NOT* to Fall."

12. A thug is a thug

left or right, and the left has historically had plenty. I do not choose to participate.

Merry Christmas

[UTUSN]

13. When They Come for You, Hope There'll Be Somebody to Fight for you. n/t

[forgethell]

14. I'll fight for myself,

don't worry. but I refuse to participate in the ruining of peoples's lives because they disagree with me politically. Somehow, I have a hard time thinking that this action protects anyone. It is just boorish, jerk behavior, that neither side should tolerate.

Think about it. Is there something in your life that you would just as well didn't want known to the general public? They have equal justification for exposing you as you do them.

I just hate back-biting and back-biters. No matter how "noble" they are in their own minds, they are jerks and thugs, and I don't want them on my side.

But,
MERRY CHRISTMAS

16. Round and Round We Go n/t

[Sara Beverley]

7. No, ask her if she shouldn't be stoned to death for sex outside of marriag

Why haven't the Freepers called for it?

[GRLMGC]

15. How can she live w/ herself?

Could any of you live with yourselves if you had "relations" w/ :puke: Kerik?

[zbdent]

17. Some more surprises on Judith's possible "John" list

Ralph Nader ("The Good Fight")

Tommy Franks ("American Soldier")

And a really good one: Jenna Jameson and Neil Strauss (co-authors of "How to make love like a porn star"! - Guess that Judith's embracing her identity!)

[colonel odis]

19. they don't make douche strong enough to clean her after

screwing kerik.

as an aside, i'm not sure why people keep referring to her as though she's attractive. or intelligent.

[UTUSN]

21. "They" Say She Looks Like Isabella ROSELINI n/t

[colonel odis]

22. if you're blind running drunk, squint your eyes really tight,

turn your head about 50-60 degrees, and look at her from 100 yards or so, i'll bet she looks just like isabella rosselini.

24. LOLx3. Link to Vanity Fair Profile. Ewwww, No Sheets on the Bed

Let's Judge:

.... One former friend described the chaos Regan creates around herself this way: "Judith is the sort of person who insists you stay with her, and then you arrive and find out that her ex-boyfriend is also staying in the same room, and there are no sheets, so you have to go buy them, and she tells you to get the best ones and she'll pay you back, and then she won't and she'll say, 'I've noticed that you let people take advantage of you.'" ....

Rumors of an affair abounded during the project, but both Regan and Kerik denied them. ....

And politically correct she is not. Many staffers—and other colleagues—had epithets according to their sexual orientation or ethnicity: "I was the lesbian cunt," says one former competitor. "Then there was the black cunt." When she got mad, people were called "fucking retards" and "fucking idiots"; if she got really mad, she'd accuse people of being either "fags" or "on drugs" or, preferably, both. "Judith was always insisting to me I was gay—and if some issue came up that involved women, I knew nothing, because—she'd shout at me—'You've never slept with a woman!' And I was like, O.K., whatever!" says Dana Isaacson, now an editor at Random House.

"She'd seem so normal at some points," he adds wistfully. "Then, you know, the next minute she'd be screaming about the faggot mafia."

But in some ways being screamed at by Regan was considerably less unsettling than being her chum. "She's a raunchy personality, and when she feels comfortable and wants to bond, her bizarre way of doing it is to get crude," says one former editor. "Maybe she enjoys making you uncomfortable? Or maybe it's her weird way of bonding with other women?" At one point Regan told this particular editor, "I'm on so many hormones I could hump the doorknob." "Or," said the editor, "she'd say something like, 'My clit is this big'—and hold out her fingers." ....

23. Good thread...

I agree with the poster who said we have to forget all about "playing fair" and join the neocons in some gutter-fighting if we are ever going to win.
