Well, me and Howard Dean are sharing a birthday today
He 56, me 54. I sure was hoping that it would be a happier birthday for both of us.

I hope that someday, people who speak truth to power as Dr. Dean did will not be treated like they are radioactive. He showed us what it means to be a Democrat again, something the Democratic leadership couldn't tolerate. I thought Dr. Dean's example would inspire John Kerry to take a few chances and speak boldly, but instead, Mr. Kerry chose to tippy-toe around the issues. Guess I was hoping for too much.

Happy Birthday anyway, Doc.

3. "You say it's your birthday....
well, it's my birthday, too!" Seriously, it IS also my birthday. Happy Birthday to you, PlanetBev and to Howard Dean (and Martin Scorsese, Danny Devito and RuPaul.)

I woke up this morning more determined than ever to fight the dark forces threatening our democracy. Don't lose heart, PlanetBev! We will send the Neo-Cons and Talibornigans scuttling back to wherever it is they belong. :toast:

4. Happy birthday
I was 56 on Monday. I'll make an exception to my rule against dating younger men for Dr. Dean.

6. And I hate to add
Prince Charles. 11/14/1948

However, Steveland Morris (Stevie Wonder) was born around the same time.

11. I love dem Scorpios
Happy Birthday to you both, from another die-hard Deaniac. (Sob!)

My son's birthday (now 33) was yesterday.

Here's to all the great Scorpios of the world (or at least the liberal ones): :toast:
