12. Thanks for the synopsis
I'm sorry I missed the interview.

I do disagree with Dean about the DSM. He's right it is one more proof that Bush lied, but it is much harder proof. What Dean says comes close to what Bush claimed: that the election was an affirmative referendum on everything Bush did before the election. That assumes, first of all, a clean and fair election, which we didn't have. Second, it assumes that the press honestly informed the voters of Bush's actions before the election. That didn't happen either.

I think it has to be possible that enough lies are revealed and proven that the election-day approval of the 51% must be questioned because it was obtained fraudulently.

And the lies we are talking about aren't small lies. They go to the heart of the confidence the people may have in their President. Remember how much was made of Clinton's looking into the camera and shaking his finger and saying "I did NOT have sexual relations with that woman..."? I was even offended by that, and it was about something that did not affect my life one iota.

George Bush has looked in the camera dozens of times and lied to me. And his lies have the potential to cost my sons their futures, or maybe even their lives.

Sorry for the rant. It is not directed at you personally. I just got on a roll for a minute. Again, thanks for the interview synopsis.
