Why Dean for DNC Chair? Because Bill O'Reilly thinks he's an SOB
Evidently, Mr. "fair and balanced" "non-partisan" O'Reilly REALLY despises Howard Dean. While I already supported Dean for DNC chair, this is just the icing on the cake...

2. That does it for me.
The last thing the Democrats need is to take the advice of Bill O'Rielly and the rest of the right wing noise machine.

3. Democrats can "stand for something" without confirming the stereotypes
that Republicans use to characterize us.

Howard Dean is way more of a moderate than he is given credit for. Real Liberals do not identify with him.

I have been attracted to him from the beginning for his emphasis upon fiscal responsibility, health care and because he wants to talk about environmental problems in terms of health issues, not just as ecological theories.

12. I think Dean is someone that real liberals and real moderates
can unite behind. No, he's not a lock-step, wild eyed liberal as some (primarily media reps who always follow stereotypes) have attempted to portray him. By DU standards, I am clearly a moderate Democrat and I really like Dean. My partner, who is considerably more left-leaning than me, also admires Dean. It goes beyond liberal/moderate/conservative stereotypes. The man connects with real people very well. He shows his passion when he speaks-he comes across as a real person.

As chairman of the DNC Dean will have 4 years to "fix" the party and re-introduce himself to the American people. And, to quote Martha Stewart, "that's a good thing"

4. Dean's been dismissive
and contemptuous of Fox News. Of course, O'Leilly has no use for him.

11. What really amazes me is that the freak actually seems to BELIEVE
his own absurdities. I believe, in O'Reilly's tiny little mind, he really thinks he's non-partisan. In a way he is: he likes both right wingers, and moderate-conservative wingers. Just no one to the left of Joe Lieberman.

For that POS O'Reilly to call Dean an SOB makes me LMAO.

(Don't you just love shortcuts!)

13. Did Bill apologize for the WMD lie yet?
I remember two years ago before the war started he promised to apologize if they didn't find any weapons.

14. If O'Lielly hates him
That's good enough for me!

I've always liked Dean, and he'll rock as DNC Chair.
