Howard Dean will be the new DNC Chairman!

[Baraka]

Tim Roemer is out! (http://edition.cnn.com/2005/ALLPOLITICS/02/07/democrats.chair.ap/index.html)

Once Dean is voted in as Chairman, the Democratic Party will finally begin to grow some balls again.

But of course, there are always the ball-less, Republican-Lites (http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-chait4feb04,0,4714338.column?coll=la-news-comment-opinions) out there still trying to take the man down.

But for the Republican-Lites, it's too late. We've had enough (http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/letters/la-le-dean7.1feb07,0,7150511.story?coll=la-news-comment-letters).

Go Dean!

"I am sick of the ignorant, corrupt, bullying, hypocritical liars who control the Republican Party and the country. I am sick of the GOP spin machines that distort every opposing view and portray even the idea of dissent as tantamount to treason.

I am sick of the media, which are either in the pocket of the Republicans or so cowed by right-wing bullies that they dare not raise their voices to oppose the policies of the Bush administration.

I am sick of policies that try to ram one party's view of religion down everyone else's throat, of the vilification of gays for political gain, and of immoral and unnecessary wars started on blatantly false pretenses. But most of all, I am sick of Democrats who do not have the courage to speak up against all of the many stupid and evil things that this administration has done, is doing and will continue to do as long as nobody calls them on it.

Dean is not a perfect man, but he does have the courage to say what he knows to be true, even when it is politically risky.

Dean has the intelligence and the courage to inspire people to join the party and the organizational skills to raise money and build a truly national party."

Howard Dean = :D (y)

Him and Barack Obama will save America. :)

[Monsieur Decuts]

just remind him to stay out of Dallas Texas or the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles

[Qdrop]

i agree....GO DEAN!!

i respect him. let's see what he does.

[HellofaSandwich]

He won't be setting policy, but hopefully he'll be more effective than that weenie McAuliffe whenever the media parades out the party chairs for televised head-to-heads.

Plus Dean will be focusing on rebuilding the Democrats from the ground up; his Democracy For America organization was engineered to help Democrats win local races from county clerk and sheriff all the way up to the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. This will be his approach at the DNC - helping Democrats win races at the local and state level all across America first by providing them with the adequate funding and political infrastructure, which in turn, goes the theory, will help strengthen the party nationally. Plus it'll create a stronger and bigger pool of local and state leaders to choose from for advancement to the national stage.

Rock on, Howard.

It's better than whacked out centrists who are destroying the party.

Time for a fresh new start.

P.S. - Valvano, you have the credibility of a Joe Lieberman. :rolleyes:

[SobaViolence]

Him and Barack Obama will save America. :)

and probably the world...

[Echewta]

Obama? What has he done besides have a refreshing face? Wasn't he praising Gonzales or Rice and gave them a yes vote?

[ASsman]

just what the dems need, more wacked out liberals leading them!

WHO! WHO!!? WHOSE THE LIBERAL WACKO LEADING THE DEMS!!!??

Answer me. *shakes fist*

[Baraka]

Oh, you know. Those wacky liberals like Bill Clinton and John Kerry, who gave us NAFTA, welfare reform, oppose same-sex marriage and national health-care. Crazy liberals!

[ASsman]

Shit, I need to check my window. I might be in some ultra-liberal European country, nope still in the US.

[K-nowledge]

Wasn't he praising Gonzales or Rice and gave them a yes vote?[/QUOTE]

It's a minority thing.

[ASsman]

Has K-nowledge made a point? A proper one?

The first day of the rest of your life.

[Echewta]

The way some Republicans praised Gonzales, you think he was Pancho Sanchez.

[HellofaSandwich]

Obama? What has he done besides have a refreshing face? Wasn't he praising Gonzales or Rice and gave them a yes vote?

Obama voted for Rice but against Gonzales (like most Democrats did). I get the sense that he's trying to choose his battles. We'll have to see how he performs.

[ASsman]

Worthless, green ass Senator. And no, not green as in third-party.


I get the sense that he's trying to choose his battles.
He sure picked a winner.

[Echewta]

thanks hellsand.

[DroppinScience]

He sure picked a winner.

Can it, commie. :mad:

Obama is the 2nd coming... deal with it. :p

[K-nowledge]

The 2nd. coming to what? Everybody is kissing his ass and he hasn't done shit, yet.

[Qdrop]

The 2nd. coming to what? Everybody is kissing his ass and he hasn't done shit, yet.

sadly, this is true.

[Whois]

Can it, commie. :mad:

Obama is the 2nd coming... deal with it. :p

Until he's compromised, just like every other politician...

[yeahwho]

The 2nd. coming to what? Everybody is kissing his ass and he hasn't done shit, yet.

Obama's (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3936013.stm) resume so far.....Bush's (http://home.earthlink.net/%7Emojo-hand/GeorgeBushResume.html) resume so far.

I use to think it was a matter of perception, I'm not so sure anymore. It may just be deception that matters nowadays.

[DroppinScience]

The grand potential is there, mon ami.

I *heart* Obama. :)

:confused:

By the sound of everything he's done (being a civil rights lawyer, State Senator, etc.), Obama seems like the real thing. He genuinely cares for the people he's serving.

[ASsman]

Heh, so real he join the Democrats. In all of their craptastic glory.

[yeahwho]

Let me clarify my deception remark. I feel that the people who vote in this country really don't care about a man's substance. GWB is the worst president I've ever experienced, in my lifetime. Many other's much older than me agree.

On my Grandma's refrigerator is a copy of this cartoon, Quagmire Accomplished. (http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/horsey/print.asp?id=1073) GWB may be able to Bullshit some of the people some of the time, but the deception of a Christian Family man who is looking out for Americas best interest isn't working in this town. I'm sure Obama will be percieved as weak and anti- faith based..plus he is an attorney, the Republicans are soon going to paint all of his hard work as character defects. Unfortunately, a majority of America will buy it.

There is no changing their minds, the poor republicans all think these tax laws are in place for them when they hit the "Big Time."

[DroppinScience]

Heh, so real he join the Democrats. In all of their craptastic glory.

Well aren't you just a wet blanket. (n)

They weren't always craptastic. Right now the Republicans are having the same experience as the Democrats did back when it was FDR and Truman's day in the sun. Tables have turned is all.

They'll find their bearings once again. Dean as DNC is a good start.

[ASsman]

Sorry. To rain on your two party, party.

[yeahwho]

Sorry. To rain on your two party, party.

It's my two party party and I'll cry cry if I want to,
you would cry to if it happened to you.


Thank you, thank you, please come back for the 10 O' Clock show.

[Whois]

Sorry. To rain on your two party, party.

:D (y)

[DroppinScience]

Woooo!!!

Democrats *heart* Dean! :)
