Howard's hatefest

December 16, 2003 -- YOU won't be seeing any video of Howard Dean's x-rated, epithet-ridden New York fund-raiser because Team Dean made sure to bar the TV cameras. Which suggests they expected trouble. Maybe it was the same foresight that inspired Dean to seal his records as Vermont governor for 10 years because of worries, as he put it in a moment of candor to Vermont public radio, about "future political considerations. We didn't want anything embarrassing appearing in the papers at a critical time in any future endeavor."

Comic Kate Clinton evoked Michael Jackson (hit with new child-sex-abuse charges) and said: "Frankly, I'm far more frightened of Condoleezza Rice" - the Bush national security adviser who has nothing in common with Jackson except being black.

Rice seems to drive liberal woman comics especially nuts. Sandra Bernhard insulted her in racial terms with a "Yes Massa" accent at another Dean fundraiser the same night. Perhaps the pro-Dean comics find it unbearable that the most powerful black woman in U.S. history, close friend to the president and his wife - and a brilliant classical pianist to boot - dares to be a Republican.

American black men and women: leave, for G-d's sake LEAVE the liberal plantation.

Ours is the true party of inclusion.

Their party is the one of naked, acidic "Yes, Massa" contempt for black women of substance and accomplishment; and an unapologetic former Ku Klux Klansman as their chosen and heralded "conscience of the Senate."

Come home to us. Come home.

Let's see, Trent Lott is forced out of his leadership post for making some offhand remarks to a 100 year old man which set off weeks of howling and protest in the media. Howie Dean has a fundraiser where his supporters freely toss around the N-bomb, and it gets buried. But there's no liberal bias in the media. /sarcasm

[Always Right]

By definition, liberals can not speak hate. Only words out of conservatives mouths can be construed as hate speech. See any dictionary on this.

[driftless]

Oh the libs are just being themselves. After years of trying to suppress all their tremendous anger (or having incidents covered up by lib media pals), the libs are now letting it all hang out. But lurkers on this forum who think this fundraiser might be an isolated incident should go to DemUnderground to see the libs at their worst...or best whichever way you want to look at it. All the paranoid, delusional, reality-challenged, foul-mouthed hatred gushes out unrestrained over there. That's the true picture of liberalism today: incoherent rage.

Let's see, Trent Lott is forced out of his leadership post for making some offhand remarks to a 100 year old man which set off weeks of howling and protest in the media.

To be honest, the only reason it "stuck" with Lott is because just about every Republican I know, including myself, was looking for an excuse to hang the gimp.

He was worthless as the leader. "Power Sharing"? WTF?!? We should have removed him years ago. At least now it "looks" like we put up a fight, although I can't tell you that we've actually won any.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

Oh I agree that Lott needed to go, and not just for his remarks at Thurmond's birthday party. I just can't resist pointing out the media's double standard.

Always a worthwhile pursuit. : )

Hatred-powered Howard and the mean Dean machine in action!

Offending all decent people with specific insults to Blacks, Asians, Jews, and Lesbians.

Don't you know "he almost refused to come out to talk to the crowd?"

[CyberAnt]

Like Rush keeps saying .. they have become the party of kooks and freaks!

[boop]

This reminds me of big lefty Ted Danson appearing in blackface at the Friars club. Even though he was defended by Whoopi Goldberg (who wrote his sketch). It would literally be curtains for any non democrat who did this. We'd never hear the end of it. Such a person would literally be ruined.

[Lizavetta]

More to the point, that's what Bill Clinton did in 1992 when he blasted rapper Sister Souljah for anti-white words "filled with hatred."

Does anyone have any details on this?

[Lorianne]

un-___ing believable! This should get more play

I am telling you people right now, if all of a sudden, say at the convention in New York, Bush announced that Cheney wanted to retire and Rice was nominated in his place, the Left would blow a gasket.

Every time I see a lefty slam piece against Rice I know that she is the secret weapon.

Be Seeing You,

BZZZZZT! Thank you for playing. Next contestant!

Reminds me of the McDermott thread, and Tom DeLay's comments:

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay agreed. "The Democrats' hateful, moronic comments are beyond the pale, and the Democrats know it, but they don't care because they have nothing to offer the public debate but rage, resentment and quackery. Until other Democrats stand up against this hysteria, they're admitting to the country their party has no claim to national leadership."

(McDermott had said Bush could have had Saddam anytime, and just caught him now for political effect since everything's going to hell.)

I really like DeLay. His aren't in a lockbox. Rage, resentment, and quackery! (One could add spite, speciousness, and psychosis. Or hatred, hysteria, and psychopathology.)

How-Weird Dean. (Just how weird we may yet see....)
