"We Love Howard Dean" a Truthout perspective.

Howard Dean said something mean. Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

Bush lied and people died. Nope - not news. Ohio Republicans involved in financial and voting scandal. Nope - not news. Republicans jam Democratic phone lines during 2004 election to stop the vote. Republicans hack into Democratic computers. No news there. Tom Delay has repeated ethical lapses and takes money from lobbyists like Jack Abramoff. Nope - not news. The White House edits critical environmental reports to refute scientific fact. Nope - no news there. Wait a minute - this just in:

Howard Dean said something mean.

Oh my God! Stop the presses! Did you hear? Dean has gone mean, pass it on. Get Candy Crowley at CNN and Chris Matthews at MSNBC. Don't forget Scarborough. This is a week's worth of programming! Get Holy Joe Lieberman to speak for the good Democrats. Get Jive-Joe Biden, he'll be good for a sensible quote to contrast with the madness of Howard "Beal" Dean.

Quick, do you know why Republicans are against federal money for stem cell research? They're afraid the Democrats will use it to grow a spine. (ba-da-boom)

2. Dean was right on the white christian party comment...

...but the comment about never working an honest day in their lives was bs. simply not true. my dad worked many an honest day in his life.

5. Dean said .."a lot of

republicans" and was refering to the leadership..

I know republicans work hard and so do Dems.

6. Dean didn't say ALL Republicans...

he was misquoted, but that shouldn't come as a surprise to you. He was referring to the Republican LEADERSHIP and the trust-fund darlings of the GOP who have never worked a day in their privileged lives.

I know there are a lot of rich Democrats who have never held a real job but for the most part they are on the side of the average person (or they're supposed to be) and they try to pass legislation that benefits middle-class Americans. The bankruptcy bill doesn't fall into that category but behind the scenes there were some good Democrats who fought against that bill and I don't recall any Republicans who voted against it.

Republicans only care about corporate enrichment and filling their own coffers.
