I Wish Dean was Fucking President!
Just said that as a Senator he'd vote against it, but he's proud of the party for the health care bill and it should be passed. WTF?

Would love to listen to DUers piss all over themselves over that one.


* Note: found that adding "fucking" in the subject line guarantees a read. Some of the most successful disruptors here use the technique with great success.

3. Dammit, Holy Fuck!
I thought you had simply typoed the OP Subject line and missed out a "the" - and I recommended based on that too!

4. Hehe, I got your point. In all seriousness, I like Dean but he doesn't have the temperament .

26. What's wrong with his temperment?
Have you ever watched him go one on one with a repuke? I've never seen him lose his temper or even yell at his opponent. Are you basing your claim on the Dean scream? If so, you don't have a leg to stand on. That "scream" was manufactured by the media.

5. You know what they say. Wish in one hand,
**** in the other and see which fills up faster.

I voted for Dean too, but he didn't even win the primary so he wasn't among the general election candidates, let alone the winner.

If daydreaming helps fill your day, go for it.

6. Re your note. Guarantees a unrec from me.
Edited on Wed Dec-23-09 03:16 PM by Better Today
Why? Because you should've said I fucking wish, not fucking president. I don't want anyone to be a fucking president, we had one of those the last 8 years.

7. Unrecommended because you didn't supply a link or transcript.
I'm not about to make a judgment call on this without the ability to see what was actually said instead of an extremely biased and hateful poster's opinion of what was said.

8. What sound is made when one pisses on one's self?
And can you hear it over the internets (note: I hope not)?

9. He said the WH probably wasn't feeling cordial towards him
Edited on Wed Dec-23-09 03:20 PM by eleny
They've been having talks with him. He still invokes his belief that the Bush administration would have rammed it through using reconciliation and we would have what we need. That we wouldn't have had to endure the antics of the right wing such as the "death panels" nonsense.

He also praised Senator Whitehouse for excoriating the Republicans and how they've acted throughout this process. Dean likened Whitehouse's statement to the "At long last" statement during the McCarthy hearings.

He was interviewed by Schuster on MSNBC just now.

12. Unrec. Dean continues to state the bill can be fixed and holds out hope
that it will. He's been critical of the bill as it is now.

14. I did in 2004
but it was a tough sell here because he was not "progressive enough" for DU.

17. what EXACTLY was Obama's in 2008-09? I guess it depends on when/which one, eh?
I wouldn't want to draw attention to "undefined" or "inconsistent" "plans" if I were you.
At least Dean HAD one. He had the courage to actually stand behind something, at risk to his career (does Obama ever really "risk" anything?) and he actually implemented a real plan in the state he governed. He made it work for The People, not for the poor widdle underprivileged insurance co. CEOs who were so in need of taxpayer welfare money. :cry: SAVE THE INSURANCE COMPANIES BY ANY MEANS POSSIBLE!

resume mindless cheerleading, but watch for pitfalls--your ammo is shrinking.

I'll never know.

22. At this point, considering your last response to me, I don't give a fuck what you read.
considering that you believe that my posting a simple question,
provides you with the opportunity for spewing more of your bullshit,
without the courtesy of an answer.

21. "Wishing" is not how it is done.
As the old proverb goes, "if wishes were horses, beggars would ride".

23. Fortunately, he's one of the few who are untainted by this (and other) fiascos
So, who knows? It may yet come to pass.

Stranger things have happened.

25. I, for one, would not want to listen to The Scream on TV fifteen times a day.
As much as I love Dean, I believe that he was neutralized years ago.
