You're right Deaniacs: Dr. Dean scares the peepers out of the RW
Three different bogus stories today about Dean scaring people away from the party: one about him alienating blacks, one about him alienating Jews and one about some Zell-wannabe defecting from the party.

Somebody is in full spin mode, making it sound like Dean will tear the party apart. Seems a rather desperate tactic to me. So I agree, the RW is deathly afraid that Dean will help the party to get its grassroots act together.

And if they're afraid, that can only be a good thing.


Yaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh!

2. Judy "Skeletor" Woodruff (yesterday)
"And a story just coming into CNN from the Associated Press. And that is that Howard Dean, just a few days into his job as chairman of the Democratic National Committee, is today calling for the Republican state party chair -- Republican state party chair in New York to apologize or to resign over remarks that Stephen Minarik, that's his name, made yesterday linking Democrats to a civil rights lawyer convicted of aiding terrorists. Dean is calling Minarik's comments offensive. He said the American people deserve better than this.

In effect Minarik touched all of this off earlier this week when he said in electing Dean as national party chairman over the weekend that, quote: "The Democrats simply have refused to learn lessons of the last two election cycles. Now they can be called the party of Barbara Boxer, Lynn Stewart," who is a controversial civil rights attorney, "and Howard Dean." So there you have it. Already some controversy with Howard Dean."

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0502/16/ip.01.html

I heard Judy basically explain that as a "journalist" she is only there to parrot what the pols say. So, in effect when the Dems don't yell and scream about something, there's just nothing to "report."

So, Dean speaks up about being called a terrorist and what does Skeletor say? She describes the Republican name calling as "controversy with Howard Dean." Whadda Whore.

10. Did she include Gov Pataki's criticism of the guy?
If not, then she is being selective in her "parrotting".

It...was...BEAUTIFUL.

Just THAT was worth it all. Totally annihilated him. :nuke:

He even got Pataki agreeing with us.

6. I've been hearing a lot of "friendly advice" from RW pundits lately
Things like "I'm just telling you Dems how to win elections" by getting rid of Dean.

They're just trying to help.... Hahahaha

7. They couldn't even identify that he's not a liberal
Why would I listen to anything else they say when they can't even get THAT right.

11. Just wait.....There'll be some high profile "democrats" jumping in too.
I fully expect some southern "democrats" to denounce Dean's chairmanship too.

Zell maybe? Dunno.

13. have never really been a Dean fan
but I have to admit, I am impressed with his behavior so far. I LOVED it when he told someone he would "refuse to respond to blind quotes." LOL - THAT IS A CLASSIC RW PROPAGANDA TECHNIQUE THEY USE CONSTANTLY! OUTSTANDING! :thumbsup:
