Dean for DNC Chairman?:"I Hate the Republicans and Everything the Stand For"
Boston Globe ^ | Feb 3, 2005 | jeff Jacoby

Posted on 09/20/2009 8:28:39 AM PDT by Titus-Maximus

THE DEMOCRATIC National Committee won't officially elect its next chairman until Feb. 12, so Howard Dean doesn't have the job wrapped up just yet. But the Association of State Democratic Chairs endorsed him this week, and two of the five other candidates for the position have since dropped out.

Clearly, the Democratic chairmanship is now Dean's to lose. And that should have reasonable Democrats worried, because their party's ills aren't going to get better with the medicine Dr. Dean is prescribing.

As governor of Vermont, Dean was regarded as a budget-balancing, gun-owner-friendly centrist. As a candidate for president, he turned himself into an angry, left-wing firebrand. Perhaps as party chairman he'll turn himself back into something thoughtful and moderate, in which case the Democratic Party may regain some of the ground it has lost to Republicans over the past decade. But on the evidence so far, Dean has no intention of turning down the heat.

Speaking to a DNC forum in New York over the weekend, Dean indulged once again in some of the undisguised loathing of the GOP that was such a hallmark of Democratic Party activism last year. "I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for,"

Dated piece but exemplary of the vituperation visited upon President Bush and the Republicans by the Dems who now say the opposition is uncivil! What liars they are! Look up Democrat in the dictionary and the first descriptive word is "hypocrite".

UNITED WAY take conservative money too - and hits up conservative companies.

Conservatives who donate to UNITED WAY are supporting organizations like ACORN - and they don’t know it.
Spread the word...

Remember how Maureen Dowd said she heard the unspoken word "boy" in Joe Wilson's "you lie?"

Well I heard something unspoken in Dean's ululation. I heard "I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for, and if it were up to me they'd all be in cattlecars on a one-way-trip to camps in the desert southwest."

Basically, what Dean is saying is that he doesn’t like anyone that disagrees with him.

United Way is a dictatorship. I’ve worked with companies that took donations for United Way. United Way came back to the company and told them to do better, especially with management. The company sent all forms back to their managers and told them to re-evaluate their donations. We knew exactly what they meant.

I love the high profile presence of Dean in the Democrat Party. The #1 race bating, institution would have as it’s leader a man whose biggest accomplishment was being Governor of a State that has less black people than my town puts into a high school football stadium during a homecoming game.

Isn't this, by definition, HATE speech?

Where is the condemnation from his peers?

Yes, this really is Chairman How. What exactly he's being tested for I don't know. The photo dates to 2004 or so.

The moment United Way stopped supporting the Boy Scouts of America because of their right to exclude atheists and homosexuals, I stopped donating to UW.

A pity too, that all those needy people should suffer because UW is more concerned with scoring political points with perpetually-aggrieved minority groups.

It's odd how sooooo many organizations are "liberal" AND also "thuggy"....

Howard Dean: "I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for,..."

Frank Dashwood: "I am no longer a Republican since your dupe McCain became their presidential nominee, but I am sure you still hate me. I don't see hate as a "sin" of some sort, so your feelings are inconsequential to me... The best thing about being an atheist is that there is no pretense I need to give a damn about your effing "feelings."

I guess some of the things he hates are the concepts of personal liberty and national security.

The Democrats I hope, elect Dean again. He is a NUT CASE. The Blue Dawgs will vote our way. So let the Democrats melt down with the lunatic fringe. 2010 we put on the BRAKES!

If a prominent Republican had said something like this about Democrats, they and their media allies would be calling us a hate group. When one of their own says it, it’s passed off as normal political rhetoric. Their toleration of this statement is compelling proof that their protestations about conservative incivility are fraudulent.

I’ve worked with companies that took donations for United Way.

Years ago, I worked for a large retailer at little better than minimum wage. I took the job for many reasons; salary wasn't one of them. At UW time, I didn't donate because I absolutely despise them. Management made it clear to me that my life would become miserable if I did not donate. They wanted that 100% banner. I wrote them a check for $1. And it hurt to write it for that much.

"I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for,"

It's mutual, slug bait.

Dean sends out some daffy newsletter and somehow I'm on their list. They are either truly delusional or supreme liars (to their own followers). Guess he hasn't found the right balance of meds since his Primary failure “scream”.

The dems are desperate, they think the Nutty Dean will pull off some magic like they think he did in 2006.

I'm all for the dems going as far left as they can get with all the gnashing of teeth, name calling and race baiting. Everything needs perspective, he will give a good comparison. Dean will be fantastic as DNC chair again!

It’s all lies. Like when O-boy said “Americans shouldn’t have to worry about how they’re going to make their mortgage payment or fill their gas tank.” And idiots actually believe that he will make their house payments and gas will be free. And not one spineless republican or Fox newsperson called them on it.

It’s easy to lie to idiots. But they won’t believe the truth.

Go Dean!

>> Dean: “I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for,”

Wow! Does that include the Republicans serving overseas? Or, the paramedics, physicians, and nurses also registered as Republicans. Dean, does your hatred for Republicans include LEOs, Priests, and Rabbis? What about the deli clerk, or the guy that makes your pizza pie?

Do you hate the head of the RNC, Michael Steele?

i always think that the obamajoker poster should say big brother ... so that the non-political liberal youth start to see obama for what he is.

"non-political liberal youth"

A contradiction in terms. Besides, I doubt many even know what "Big Brother" means. Orwell isn't exactly required reading in public schools today.

A lot of these ding-aling college kids are more libertarian than they even realize ... but SOCIALIST doesn’t mean anything to them. BIG BROTHER would. that term is big on campus. it usually means FBI, NSA eavesdropping ...
