DKW 86 7,425 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Link A Scathing Chairman Dean Finds Republicans 'Evil,' 'Corrupt' and 'Brain-Dead'By Brian Faler Monday, April 25, 2005; Page A06 Howard Dean may not be running for anything, but his elbows appear to be as sharp as ever. Since taking over as chairman of the Democratic National Committee earlier this year, the former presidential candidate has been quoted in newspapers making unusually caustic remarks about Republicans. Dean has suggested that they are "evil." That they are "corrupt." He called them "brain-dead" during a stop in Toronto -- and while the Terri Schiavo case was still in the news. He has tagged Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) as a "liar." Last week, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported that he mimicked a "drug-snorting Rush Limbaugh" at an event there. (Rush deserves that one, imho.) Dean was noted for his candid and often unpredictable comments during his campaign last year. Then, as now, many Democrats said they don't mind the former Vermont governor's bluntness. "You don't want a wallflower for a party chairman," one Senate Democratic aide said. Dean's remarks have not attracted much attention in the national media, in part because he has focused largely on local and regional news outlets since taking the party's helm in February. But his counterparts in the Republican National Committee have noticed. "It's odd that Howard Dean says he wants to earn the respect of those who live in the red states, but chooses to not only attack their views but attack them personally," RNC spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt said. "Americans want to hear an agenda, rather than name calling." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Al 0 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 That's why I love Dean! Sometimes you just gotta cut through the PC bs and call 'em like you see 'em, in the most plain-spoken way you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piglet 0 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Republicans dish it out but they can't take it. Conservatives got where they are today in part by bagging on liberals every chance they get. Why do you expect Liberals not to respond in kind? You think they're gonna be ineffectual wimps forever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburn85 432 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Has Ken Mehlmen called anyone "braindead"? Has he called anyone a liar? Has he ever said I hate Democrats and everything they stand for? Has he ever pretended to snort cocaine to make fun of Al Franken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
