Is Howard Dean's Raised Voice Raising Cash?

DEAN 'shooting his mouth off' is a non-issue that's invented by your little clearing house right-wing sites you guys must love to visit. You only post them here because you love to piss off, or show-up FORD, that's not what this forum is about. I thought it was about discussion. I know it used to be. And BigBLUNDER, you're the king of whining...If you're not crying and starting threads about FORD's alleged biases (after you bait him like a little school girl trying to get her teacher in trouble), you're tearing up over "blatant personal attacks" laid on you by LOUNGE or moi.




Those were issue related, DEAN has nothing to do with the shitty economy, the war gone sour, and the continual erosion of our civil liberties. Anyways, BUSH is the CEO of the country, DEAN is just the chair of the opposition. His comments really mean nothing, but he must be doing something right if he's getting this much attention from you guys.

Non issue? He's the lightning rod of the DNC and he's all over the news with these comments. (Not just FOX before you even start) FORD posts Dean threads himself to promote him, so saying BBB shouldn't be posting them either is kinda hypocritical.

If FORD wants to promote Dean as much as he does, Dean's mistakes can't be dismissed as irrelevant. He's pissing some Democrats off as well, which can't be good for the party as a whole. Moving to the hard left is going to be a huge disaster for the Democrats. All he's doing is setting up Hillary to come in and "save the party".

Let's just sweep Dean's comments under the rug, shall we?

He's not important...I mean, he's just the DNC Chair, a meaningless position, right?

Of course, threads about a girl in Austrailia going to jail for pot in Indonesia are completely relevant to American politics.

Historically it's been pretty meaningless. I mean, to this day I have no idea what former DNC chair Terry McAuliffe looks like, let alone his background.

Dean is taking this to a whole new level. Some like it, but most do not.

Okay, "non issue" was a poor choice of words on my part. I heard it on NPR as a matter of fact and will provide the link when it comes up.

But I NEVER SAID BBB shouldn't post them, just that we don't need a fucking new thread on every different take (BIDEON, EDWARDS...) on what is essentially the same story. Put them all in the same thread and sticky it, I don't care. I never meant the story isn't there, just that we don't need a different thread for every article on it which is meant solely to piss off FORD and to hence expose his "Liberal bias" when he closes them.

If FORD wants to promote Dean as much as he does, Dean's mistakes can't be dismissed as irrelevant. He's pissing some Democrats off as well, which can't be good for the party as a whole. Moving to the hard left is going to be a huge disaster for the Democrats. All he's doing is setting up Hillary to come in and "save the party".

As I already stated, I have no problem with DEAN's mistakes being posted, just a new thread a day on what is essentially ONE ongoing story!

And actually, the DEMOCRATS are now universally rallying around him just because of all of this excitment over his comments and of some prominent DEM. leaders reactions to his statements

BTW, as an "Independent," shouldn't you be attacking Karl ROVE as well? Oh no, we would never criticize a Republocan't.

[Warham]

Karl Rove doesn't make idiotic statements out in public. Big difference.

And I thought you were a Republocan't, Nick? Let's just be up front and honest, and say you are a liberal. Speaking of which, why is it so hard for liberals to admit they are liberals? I remember John Kerry having a hard time admitting that last year. There must be some public perception about liberals...

One fucking thread compared to five on the same topic? Some of us lack your narcissistic, inward world view...

BTW, we have many AUSTRALIANS that are regular contributors to this board and this forum. I would pity the day it only becomes solely about BBB's partisan ramblings...

No, he just uses little front hate groups to defame his opponents:

From: http://www.boston.com/news/politics/...mear_campaign/

It didn't take much research to turn up a seemingly innocuous fact about the McCains: John and his wife, Cindy, have an adopted daughter named Bridget. Cindy found Bridget at Mother Theresa's orphanage in Bangladesh, brought her to the United States for medical treatment, and the family ultimately adopted her. Bridget has dark skin.

Anonymous opponents used "push polling" to suggest that McCain's Bangladeshi born daughter was his own, illegitimate black child. In push polling, a voter gets a call, ostensibly from a polling company, asking which candidate the voter supports. In this case, if the "pollster" determined that the person was a McCain supporter, he made statements designed to create doubt about the senator.

Thus, the "pollsters" asked McCain supporters if they would be more or less likely to vote for McCain if they knew he had fathered an illegitimate child who was black. In the conservative, race-conscious South, that's not a minor charge. We had no idea who made the phone calls, who paid for them, or how many calls were made. Effective and anonymous: the perfect smear campaign.

All you got to complain about is some grammar and punctuation errors? Your life must really suck to let it get you so worked up about it.

Who's worked up?

Not me.

I just take those things into consideration when someone tries to tell me what's right or wrong.

I give you very little credit.

At least Warham and Brie are intelligent. You're just a fucking dolt.

:D

I've met diamondD before and he's far from a dolt...

He's on the wrong side of the fence politically but he's a cool dude. I heard he got a 1200 on his SAT's too. But I heard a rumor that he hired a little Japanese boy to take the test for him, so take it with a grain of salt.

I'll second that opinion. DIAMONDD is no dolt, right-wing asshole maybe,:D but an intelligent one nonetheless. The FORCE is strong in this one...

[superdave]

Howard Dean is the dumbest Democrat I have ever seen, and maybe will ever see, which is hard to fathom coming out of my mouth, seeing my disdain for Bill Clinton...

The new alias isn't fooling anybody Wayne. Go suck some athlete's foot.

As per the norm, Lounge nails it. It's all about the source's credibility.

Take myself for example. I had a thread CLOSED today. The thought of cuntplaining in Feedback never crossed my mind. I considered the source's credibility, forgot about it until just now, and watched trained seals on the local news sensationalize a tropical depression.

It's a fucking storm dipshits. It's tropically depressing me. The waves in Pensacola look like a Fernandina Beach beachbreak. Roll the plywood purchasing footage and go die.

Dean Cheers Rank-and-File Democrats

Listen to this story... by Mara Liasson

All Things Considered, June 10, 2005 · Howard Dean, the chairman of the Democratic Party, has once again made news. And, once again, it's because of something he has said. His colorful description of Republicans may have caused some Democratic leaders to wince. But party support outside of Washington, D.C., remains strong.
