GOOD FOR TWEETY!! Dean Isn't Getting Squat!! Give It Up For

[ChiciB1]

Howard Dean!! Tweety has really redeemed himself these past 6 months!!!

[Thrill]

1. Dean should get the FDA or CDC gig

[w4rma]

2. HHS. (nt)

[JohnnyBoots]

5. Nader would be great at the FDA.

[XemaSab]

32. Nader would be great at cleaning out barns in Minot, ND.

I never want to see that hoser again.

[Jim Lane]

34. And what do you have against the good people of Minot? (n/t)

[XemaSab]

35. North Dakota's a big place

I'm sure there's room there to just ignore the dude. :shrug:

[Fleshdancer]

3. I saw that!

Tweety also mentioned that Dean is in Europe helping liberal parties win elections? Has anyone heard about this?

[madfloridian]

8. I put a video in the Video Forum from his talk at Davos

in Switzerland.

Yes, he has said he will be in Europe several times soon.

[ChiciB1]

10. Oh My... Liberals! What A Nice Concept! I ARE One! n/t

[janet118]

15. I heard he was consulting with the British Labour Party

way back after the 2006 Congressional elections.

Matthew 13:57
And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

[cal04]

4. It's nice to see someone ask about Dean

not being considered

[annabanana]

6. Yeah... But he STILL won't ask old Pat B. what he thinks of

Steele being new RNC cheif...

[spanone]

7. everyone assumes dean wants something....

[ChiciB1]

9. He May Not Want Anything, But It Would Be Nice If He Got Asked!

Then again, he may have decided to tell them to count him out. But Howard Dean has class IMO!

[fadedrose]

11. I sent Chris an email....

I was ecstatic when he pumped McCaskell(sp)about Dean. Her eyelashes were fluttering so hard I think she was almost blinded by them because of her embarrassment of not being able to give him an honest answer.

All that praise and hype for Daschle, what a hero he is, and all that BullS, and about Dean, she says maybe he doesn't want anything. Politicians are either liars, cheaters, and that's the good ones. The others are worse.

Anyway, I told Chris that right now he is topping my list over Olberman. KO never defended Dean the way Chris did tonight, at least not to my knowledge.

This all is faux/President Emmanuel's doing...

[rvablue]

19. How soon we all forget.....OH. MY.

Did you happen to catch the treatment of Dean on Hardball during the 2004 election.

Tweety had a good time playing "the screech" video on loop for about two weeks.

Don't get carried away on one interview. Tweety is an oily weather vane.

[fadedrose]

25. I saw the scream, and I loved Dean for it

because I understood for whom he screamed and why.

Stephanie Miller played his scream all the time and she's been a huge fan of his.

[rvablue]

27. Tweety mocked it relentlessly. It wasn't done as a celebration. n/t

[camera obscura]

12. Tweety has been very complimentary to Dean, especially during and after election night

at least some people see how the 50 state strategy worked

[fadedrose]

13. And he seems so SINCERE nt

[elizm]

14. Probably his GUILT over how he reacted to the Dean scream in 2004..

He played in RELENTLESSLY...I would hope he has a tremendous amount of guilt.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

26. What you said.

[The Backlash Cometh]

16. Harrumph.

I'll take one brick down from the wall I built in my mental cellar, to bury Tweety in.

[ChiciB1]

17. I Do Admit He Plays It Both Ways... AND He May Just Be Doing It Because

he wants to run for office. Still, I didn't mind hearing him say it!

I'm sure Tweety's looking out for himself to a great extent! Aren't THEY ALL??

[fadedrose]

18. I have a different take

I think he thought Dean was fair game as long as the man was still standing and able to take hits - but maybe Matthews now sees Dean as being UNFAIRLY treated since the election. Everybody loves an underdog.

[ChiciB1]

21. No... Everybody DOESN'T Love An Underdog! I Think There Are Millions

of us out here... I'm not feeling LOVE, but hey I may not know what love is!

[fadedrose]

24. Okay, Forrest, some of us love an underdog, and you know what love is

[ChiciB1]

28. Well, I Think I'll Always Have A Soft Spot In My Heart For Dean For Sure! n/t

[DrDan]

20. Obama is right on target with this one -

[mmonk]

22. Daschle?

[DrDan]

23. Dean

[mmonk]

29. The huge bulk of the appointments have been awful except for

CIA and OLC and dissing Dean for beltway no change politicians is bad as well. I feel I did my duty the last two elections. Everything forward has to be earned as far as I'm concerned. I'm still pleased at some of his actions though so far and that is the only thing holding us together.

[DrDan]

36. I think the SoS has come off so far as a true SoS

I like her public statements to-date. Hopefully that one is a winner.

I also think Treas was the right choice (except for that one niggling little problem).

[unblock]

30. redeemed himself? like the way a weathervane redeems itself?

[jenmito]

31. I like him, but sadly on this same show tonight, he gave false information. On a thread I started:

Did anyone see Chris Matthews' "Big Number" for tonight? 19.

He claimed Obama fell 19 points in his approval rating, comparing apples and oranges. He said Obama started out with an 82% approval rating and now has a 63% approval rating. The problem with that, of course, is Obama's 82% approval was for his TRANSITION while 63% was the lowest rating of Gallup's approval rating. (He started with a 68% approval rating according to Gallup-not 82%, and today Obama's approval rating is 66%, making the "Big Number" a whopping 2, not 19.)

33. I'm trying to forgive Tweety but then I remember back to when he played Rev Wright

non-stop for weeks and weeks.
