1. Hey Dean- talk about "The Memo."
It's an important issue.

Stop dodging it.

13. No! it's not Dean's Job to talk about the "Memo/Minutes." Go after
Edited on Fri Jun-03-05 05:48 PM by KoKo01
our other Dems like Hillary/Clinton...who just go around "bloviating" looking for consensus on their DLC Opinions. And where are our 2004 CANDIDATES talking about all of this? Did Gephardt and Sharpton DIE? Is John Edwards so involved with his "Poverty Center" based here in NC that he can't speak about anything except that his "Dad was a mill worker?"

Give me a break about Dean should be the ONE speaking out. Are we are "Party of One." FGS???

:shrug:

14.  Dean is allowed to have an opinion on this. I'd like to know what it is.
I disagree with you- ALL DEMs need to go on TV and tell the truth about Bush. ALL of them. Dean, Hillary, Kerry- ALL of them.

18. Dr. Fate....I think you need to be more discriminating. Which Dems
voted for Iraq Resolution and Which Dems were involved in the last Election who should speak out against DRE's and Irregular/Corrupted Voting.

Is this Howard Dean's Job....or someone elses. :shrug:

Many thanks if you can reply.

2. That photo don't look right. Is there anyone with the photshop skills
to replace Dean with that repuke from NJ that's running for Governor? All you need are his face and redo the nameplate! Oh and change it to black & white because that really makes it stealth.

:evilgrin:

5. Some of it...
Hates what Republicans are doing to our country..

Wolf.. You stated though that "Republicans are mean"

Dean.. "Is Limbaugh nice?" .."Is Ashcroft nice?" (didn't catch the other examples)

Said that NEVER AGAIN will they campaign in only 18 states.. there will be 100% effort in all fifty states and they're already working on it..

(they're still talking)..

6. I got interrupted and didn't catch all of it... but
..Dean was talking about how much corruption and abuse of power is happening right now with this particular Republican administration; that they are so completely "out of touch" with everyday Americans it isn't even funny..

He didn't discuss the memo.. Wolf kept cutting him off and inserting another question or comment before Dr. Dean could even finish the thought he was on.. :eyes:

Damn you Wolf... you're trying to be another Chris "Tweety" Matthews! Let your guests finish their sentences!!!

7. Thanks for updates!
Wolf sucks. Now he's trying to figure out how to suck for 3 hrs straight, in prep for next week. He's got a 3 hour show, so he figures *he* is the news.

8. Dean blew me away as he confronted Blitzer point by point. He even
laughed when Blitzer tried to trap him into Ohio Election Fraud. Many of us wish that Dean could come out blazing about "Downing Street Minutes," and Massive Voting Fraud with DRE's in Ohio.

But, that's not his job. He's DNC Chair and he really did an excellent job of counteracting Blitzer's Repug Spin. He even challenged Blitzer that the RW Talking points had been delivered to him for this interview. :D

The job of exposing Ohio Election Fraud and Downing Street Minutes belongs to our Senators. Most particularly to the Dems in the Senate who are responsible for calling hearings...even if they are "Dem Only" hearings.

Dean is doing the job he was BORN TO DO! He's Manipulating the Media in the way we've all hoped one of our Dems would do. And, he's charming about it...turning the RW Repugs Crap back on themselves.

I would post the transcript if I had it.

Let the others talk about Ohio and Downing Street. Dean is working on the "Grassroots" and repositioning the Democratic Message and turning the Repubs Hypocracy back on themselves.

He can't do it all alone or the Press will eat him alive. Where are our Dean BACK UPS?

BTW: Whore Blitzer said he would have Ken Mehlman on to talk about "these issues." Does Blitzer ever say anything besides "these issues?" :rofl:

Let's get them out there.

10. I haven't seen much of Dean yet
(no TV) but watching him at work today--somebody needs to nudge him about securing the Poker Face. Blitzer asked him one obnoxious question after another, each in it's own obnoxious way, and Dean at one point pulled out a face like he was sucking a lemon--I mean it was as if he was dealing with the biggest idiot in the world--which he is--but still--it was a look I don't think he knew he was making.

11. I didn't see what you saw...but I saw that he has a great sense of humor
knowing he's against Blitzer who is one of the Psy Ops who went on the attack about 2/3rds of the way through the interview.

I'm not dissing what you saw, but taken in context of the whole interview, Dean really gave back at Blitzer and his RW Repug following, imho. :shrug:
