I Want My Country Back A Howard Dean for President Blog - He's not Bush Lite |
I propose we adopt the British colloquialism of "sexing up" Apparently it's fine to lie about reasons to go to war and kill innocent people and hundreds of soldiers. It's just fine to lie about giving contracts to rebuild Iraq to your buddies to make billions of dollars as long as it doesn't involve Clinton's penis. The Brits are using the term "Sex Up" to describe the embellishment of a dossier by Tony Blair. From now on when we talk about lying by BushCo we should call it "Sexing Up" the evidence. After all sex seems to be the only thing that is worth being impeached over.
Dean calls 'em as he sees 'em as always. No skirting the issues. "we cannot afford more justices like Scalia" is so true. Amen, Scalia is certifiably insane. His dissent made him sound like he is more than a few freedom fries short of a happy meal. Dean's Statement: WASHINGTON, DC – “I applaud the Supreme Court ruling in the case of Lawrence v. Texas overturning the Texas anti-sodomy law. This decision marks a significant advance toward achieving equal rights for all Americans. For too long, laws like this have divided us by race, by gender and by sexual orientation. As a Governor who worked hard to protect the rights of gay and lesbian couples, I am extremely pleased with the Supreme Court's ruling. "Every American, regardless of sexual orientation, should be afforded the right to privacy. The Texas anti-sodomy law was nothing less than government-sanctioned intolerance and discrimination. The fact that President Bush defended the law while he was Governor shows that he is not the uniter he claims to be.” Updated 3:22 pm: Statement on Scalia's Dissent: "In today’s landmark Supreme Court ruling striking down the Texas sodomy law, six Justices understood that private consensual sexual conduct is just that – private. It is none of the government’s business, and it was unconstitutional for the State of Texas to make it a crime. "Justice Scalia, Justice Thomas and Chief Justice Rehnquist opposed the civil rights of homosexuals. Scalia wrote a harsh dissent filled with words that will be hateful to many Americans. He spoke darkly of “the homosexual agenda” and echoed Senator Rick Santorum by writing that laws against homosexuality further “the same interest” as laws against fornication, bigamy, adultery, adult incest, bestiality, and obscenity. "As a former Governor who appointed many judges to the Vermont bench, I value the quality of judicial temperament. Scalia’s intemperate dissent in this case shows why he should never have been appointed to the Supreme Court in the first place and why he is not fit to serve as Chief Justice should a vacancy occur. His increasingly shrill opinions have become an embarrassment to the Supreme Court. "President Bush says we need more Justices like Scalia. I say we cannot afford more Justices like Scalia, and we cannot afford four more years of the President who would appoint such Justices. BlogForAmerica.com

Our brilliant commander in thief once again makes our military and intelligence systems the joke of the world. The convoy smuggling Saddam was nothing more than a convoy of sheep herders. To add insult to injury, the BBC this morning was reporting that the attack was across the Syrian border. Why does this Bush nitwit continue to fool the American public with all the evidence that points to him and his regime being bumbling and dangerous fools?

...Here are the words of John Winthrop: “We shall be as one. We must delight in each other, make other’s conditions our own; rejoice together, mourn together, labor and suffer together, always living before our eyes our Commission and Community in our work.” It is that ideal, the ideal of the American community, that we seek to restore. An America where it is not enough for me to want health care for my family – but the obligation, and responsibility of every one of us as American citizens to insure that each one of us has health care for our families. An America where it is not enough for me to want good public schools and a better life for my children – but an obligation, and a responsibility as citizens to insure that every child in America may go to a good public school and have the opportunity of a better life. An America where it is not enough to protect my rights under the law but where it is a duty and an obligation for each of us as Americans to make sure every American is equal under the law. An America where it is not enough to proclaim the words freedom, self-government, and democracy, but where it is a duty and a responsibility to participate together in common purpose with the sacrifice required of each of us to give those words meaning. If September 11, 2001 taught America anything it is that we are stronger when we are beholden to each other as a national community, and weaker when we act only as individuals. That tragedy gave us an enormous opportunity to focus not only on our common peril, but also on our common dreams. The peril remains, but the dreams must be resurrected -- and they will be in a new American century.... http://blog.deanforamerica.com/archives/000481.html The Speech Great Speech. I got a kick out of the fact that exactly the same time Bush scheduled a speech. More proof they are scared shitless of Dean. Also, the disrupter with the Vote Nader sign smelled of Carl Rove. The sign holder was probably one of the same republicans who were caught posing as Democrats trying to riot in Florida in 2000 selection. Dean goes from "Who's Howard Dean?" to a front runner who gets 5000 plus people packed into the streets of Burlington at 1:00 PM on a work day with an army of 35,000 volunteers on the ground and running more than 7 month before a primary in just a few short months. Yes Dean is the one Carl Rove and BushCo are crapping their pants about.
