Raw Story: Dean demands apology from Bush

[bigtree]

"I think it also focuses on the President's own intemperate language," Dean told reporters this morning. "Saying that voting for Democrats is voting for the terrorists to win, I think is intemperate, especially coming from a guy who is criticising someone who did serve, and President Bush has never served."

President Bush did serve in the Texas Air National Guard from 1968-1972, when he was transferred to Alabama to work on a Senate campaign. In 1974, he was allowed to leave to attend Harvard Business School. Though he served during the Vietnam war, he never left the continental United States, and many critics have charged that he was given the much-coveted Air National Guard post to avoid service in the war because of his father's position as Congressman.

5. repug language

Even most Dems somehow bought the demonization of Dean last election. I have to give the Reps one thing, they are good at manipulation public opinion. I really liked Dean last election. He really knows what is going on and is really inline with my beliefs.
