"I wish that I knew how to use Photshop. I'd love to see a pic of howie in a 60's era prom tux with a duct taped shoe"

LOL!

[massadvj]

BOTTOM LINE:

Anal retentive, narcissistic, cheapskate nutcake.

[Quix]

scrubbing while the Saudi's buy nukes . . .


over our dead bodies!

WHAT! AM i Saying!

Sigh.

[TASMANIANRED]

He uses both sides of the TP.

He makes his own copper wire with pennies.

He launders paper towels.

He patches his flannel shirts with discarded boxers.

He recycles dental floss.

He makes wax sculptures out of spent candles.

He collects rain water for toilet flushing.

He washed his pits on even days and showers in a teacup of water on odd days.

He filters and recycles listerine.

He collects the slivers of soap and keeps them in a mason jar to make his own liquid soap.

He only shops where he can double coupon.

He uses old toothbrushes to groom his wild ass eyebrows.

He stuffs pillows with collected dryer lint.

He makes his own soap out of saved tallow, fireplace ash and lye. ( sorry that one is for real, even if dated)

[Endeavor]

Dean's cheap with his own money but has no qualms about spending mine.

[Arpege92]

He's cheap! This sort of thing drives me nuts....I bet he still has the first dollar he ever made.

[longtermmemmory]

Nooooooooo its Dukakis Part II


(when did boring and personal cheepness become democrat virtues?)

Yes, I turn to PEOPLE magaazine for their hard-hitting political questioning. Especially by journalists named "Podesta".

[luckystarmom]

Okay, the money matters sound just like my husband. I finally persuaded him to get new shoes when he was interviewing for a new job. His old shoes had a flap in the front. Drove me crazy.

I've finally convinced him to take his shirts to the cleaners. Actually, he finally decided they look better when the cleaners cleans and irons them. He wants to look good for his new job.

He's not quite as obsessive about recycling as Dean, but I don't recycle much.

None of these things would make me not vote for Dean. I just don't agree with his politics.

[PRND21]

He also does recycling inspections of his staffer's bins.

Go Anal Weirdo Go!

[MattAMiller]

You don't think anybody's trying to make Dean appear to be fiscally responsible do you?

[Budge]

bump for later

[oldironsides]

That abortion issue was clarified in the interview. Both husband and wife worked at Planned Parenthood while doing their residency in internal medicine. They did exams. They were not qualified to perform abortions or surgical work.
I appreciated their candor on this issue. Internists do not perform surgery.

[ladylib]

Yeah, he's cheap alright.

Mired in the 70's.

[faithincowboys]

Looks like we won't be facing Dean. It looks like Clark or Kerry, outside shot of Edwards.

[BartMan1]

Good to see that People magazine is still carrying water for the liberals. I don't normally read them, not that I'd suspected otherwise

I differ; I think this is a not so subtle hit piece on Dean -- they've got his number, and all these little behaviors do nothing good for him at this point in time....

[Hand em their arse]

Ok, so for #5 his idol had to be "meathead", right?

[Cautor]

His favorite film character is Scrooge.

[Hand em their arse]

I'm so used to all of these guys being such dumb-asses that I thought he was known to have actually taped his "two shoes together"?

I think that's more his speed, no??

[honeygrl]

He sounds obsessive compulsive.
