David Gergen, Mouth of Eason

Mealymouthed milquetoast David Gergen Quisling was named Enemy of the Week by The American Spectator:

Barney Frank, the hero of Davos, deserves to be feted for saving the world from Eason Jordan. And thus from David Gergen, who would empty a Correspondents' Dinner faster than a fire marshal. Jordan can only be described as a fool, falling in love with one Sharon Stone just as she decides she's at a point in her life at which women might be more attractive. But Gergen is something else entirely. He's been oozing sycophancy on behalf of privilege since at least the reign of Louis XVI, finding time eventually to put in a good word for Robespierre while serving as Talleyrand's gofer. But whereas the last survived purely to give cynicism a place at the table, Gergen always does so in the name of morality. So at Davos he famously suggested Mr. Jordan had "walked himself back" from the poison he'd planted, as if dropping the big one were the equivalent of tossing a water-filled balloon.

Needless to say, Gergen's intervention was about successful as Putin's in Ukraine. Undeterred, he returned to the U.S. in time to inject himself into the Harvard wars, this time with a call of unpalatable advice to its Jeff Gannon, one Lawrence Summers. A leading critic of Summers had said she had to leave the room on hearing what he'd said, lest she threw up. Thanks to EOW Dave Gergen, we know the feeling.

When making the crucial decision as to whose boots to lick, David, it pays to pay attention to their long-term prospects for remaining in power. Soon-to-be-impeached Presidents and executives prone to accusing the U.S. military of murdering civilians are wastes of your sniveling minion skills.
