The Fox Mole's 15 Minutes of Fame Have Come to an End
On Tuesday, the Fox Mole wrote his inaugural post on Gawker, which included some unremarkable footage of Mitt Romney bantering with Sean Hannity during a break in an interview. The consensus on Ricochet was that, if anything, the footage compelled folks to like Romney a little better – or to dislike him a little less, as the case may be.
Then on Wednesday, the Fox Mole complained about News Corp bathrooms.
And by Wednesday evening, Fox Mole had been outed and fired. From his last post, a confession that's sure to serve him well as he tries to salvage his reputation and career prospects:
I am a weasel, a traitor, a sell-out and every bad word you can throw at me... but as of today, I am free, and I am ready to tell my story, which I wasn't able to fully do for the previous 36 hours.
The Fox Mole's real identity: Joe Muto. And it turns out Mr. Muto accepted just $5,000 to commit career hara-kiri.

In this case, that would be an upgrade.

He's not a mole! He's a "beauty mark".

Uh...I think most of you have this all wrong. This guy is a hero. He is the Left's Joe the Plumber. He's going nowhere.

If nothing else, this offers insight into the fascist liberal mind. To them, the very existence of Romney & Hannity is scandalous. Meanwhile, the sane among us are scratching our heads.

Proves that a Federal Mole Protection Program is needed, we must not stay idle while impressionable poor kids are taken advantage off by Gawker.

I'll chip in 50 bucks if he either shaves or grows a beard.
Is he trying out for a part in 30 Something? Bassist in a grunge band? Jon Huntsman's chief of staff?

Severely Ltd.: Romney might want to pay this guy $5000. That clip of Mitt and Hannity really does make me think more of Mitt.There's a guy I'd enjoy having a beer, er no...coffee, no...well then, lemonade with. He seems like a genuinely good guy.
Maybe, just maybe, the RNC has really gotten smart and this mole was a double agent. · 2 hours ago
Apparently Romney and sons split a milkshake while waiting for election results.
I love these people.

I am liking him more and more - we will be better than OK.
Re: The Fox Mole's 15 Minutes of Fame Have Come to an End
This guy has got to go down in history as the worst mole ever. I'm almost feeling sorry for him at this point. But I'm also very skeptical. How do you work for Bill O'Reilly and not come out of it with awesome dirt? His latest "expose" is a picture of Bill having fun on a boat back in the early 1980s. I'm shaking my head.

If I had to choose one guest star in Seinfeld -- I would choose Kenny Bania. That guy is hilarious. I love his comedy chops when interacting with Jerry.
BTW, in the movie, "Johnny English Reborn" Rowan Atkinson, superspy, worries about voles and moles. I mean if you have one you might have the other.
