(82,849 posts)He testified truthfully before Sen. Ervin's committee, took his lumps, served his time, and came out a far better man for the experience.

(34,383 posts)Watergate Hearings and he's the only one I didn't despise. You really have the wrong impression of him. Read his stuff--he was very critical of Bush/Cheney, too.
procon
(15,805 posts)His redeeming qualities be damned, when Republicans attack their own, that's the only point that mattered, yeah?

(15,805 posts)Argue your point if you have one, read to TOS, but don't make snarky personal attacks, yeah? I'm all for Republicans eating their own, and having Dean smackdown Ingraham is icing on the cake, so don't omit that fact in your tirade.

procon
(15,805 posts)of Laura Ingraham, a fellow Republican, would doom her? As is surely has, yeah? That said, while I'll never support any Republican (regardless of any purported conversion), when they start attacking their own, I'll happily continue to cheer them on. You, not so much... which is just astounding.

(9,090 posts)he's old republican, from before the GOP became the party of limbaugh
procon
(15,805 posts)Ingraham lost face when Dean attacked her, and that's nice, but it's not like he's joining any protest march, or calling out his fellow Republicans and voters to condemn those who are shouting the same nastiness that she did.
Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp?
Demit
(11,238 posts)He's been calling out Republicans for years. By name.
Jesus, do some research before spouting off, why don't you.

(34,383 posts)I remember his testimony with his wife, Mo, in the audience. He was the only one I ended up having any respect for when the dust settled. He knows corruption when he sees it, and he knows despicable people when he sees them.

(38,421 posts)Dean did the same thing in 1973. He took on the someone who used the bully microphone and lied with impunity. That was 45 years ago this summer.
