Dean represents the heart and soul of liberalism perfectly.

[angkor]

By gosh, I'm glad the Rats are fielding a candidate who's concerned about due process for Osama, a monster who's repeatedly on the record promoting the mass slaughter of American civilians.

Go, Dr. Dean!

[Prodigal Son]

It's starting to look a lot like Dean won't be getting the nomination. He'll self-destruct before then. It's a pity. Bush would've administered an unbelievable Texas style a$$whooping to the doctor.

Might as well start building up counter points to the Clark campaign.

[goldstategop]

Uh huh... according to Nikita Dean Osama gets the benefit of the doubt whereas the victims of 9-11 don't deserve such niceties. Then again liberals glorify the criminal and blame the victim --- its part of their mindset and Dean simply couldn't help himself here. Let's face it, he's the personification in such rash comments, of the Ugly American.

Asked how he would persuade people who were not opposed to the war to vote for him instead of President Bush, Dean responded, "By going after him on terrorism, where he's really weak."

My goodness! He says this after the above prattle about jury trials, prejudging, and asserting bin Laden may not deserve the death penalty?!

Dean questioned whether the Bush administration's use of force against Iraq had anything to do with Libya's announcement that it will scrap its programs for weapons of mass destruction.

I question what is filling the space between Dean's ears. It sure is not a brain.

Dean is nuts- pure and simple. He's a raving lunatic.

[King Prout]

oh, dear lord, let Dean be the contender...
Just Damn!

[Yaelle]

Dean probably thinks the Taliban should try Osama. That is the jurisdiction at the time of his crimes. Hmmmm.... How would that go? Acquittal? Well, he had a fair trial at the hands of his peers...

[wingnuts'nbolts]

Get the rope!!!

[Monty22]

DU's lapping this up.

Remember, Dean's just saying what appeals to this mindset.

[the invisib1e hand]

dean is anti-sanity. at least he's consistent about that.

[tubavil]

Look for immediate endorsements from CAIR and the other muslim terror front support groups.

[jagrmeister]

Can you imagine the heckles this is receiving amongst terrorists? They know it's obvious they assasinated 3,000 Americans and a leading presidential candidate is rushing to their defense over that act. Weakness ALWAYS emboldens these people. They have their candidate in Howard Dean.

[lowteksh]

This is no good...this is the kind of statement that could derail Dean and make re-election for Bush harder...I hope the mainstream media doesn't pick up on this [/sarcasm]

[Finalapproach29er]

McGovern couldn't have said it better. Now I'm waiting for his looney followers to call American soldiers "baby-killers". It'll make Howie look even more ridiculousin the eyes of normal Americans.

Bush has a chance to take all 50 states if he does this right.

[rs79bm]

Well this just goes to show how out of the mainstream he is. We hear this term alot, but it actually applies in this case. He really doesn't have a clue. The entire world is ready to sentence bin laden, yet Dean still isn't sure. And this guy wants to be our president?

[admiralsn]

Un-freakin'-believable. Yet it is still believable, coming from Howard's mouth. Bring him on!

[PhilDragoo]

"I still have this old-fashioned notion that even with people like Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials."

Pick Dr. Dean out of this photo lineup:

[NYC GOP Chick]

Asked whether bin Laden should be tried in the United States and put to death, Dean told the Concord Monitor: "I still have this old-fashioned notion that even with people like Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials."

I *love* this guy! But I'm afraid that he's going to babble his way out of the nomination. :(

I just hope that there is video of him spewing this asinine hooey, just so we can run it in ads in the NYC/NJ/CT/PA/DC media areas right after he clinches the nomination.

[Ditto]

If the a--hole were to be captured alive, (I think he's been splotch on what used to be a cave wall in Torra Bora for two years), he should be quite literally drained of every last bit of intel we can get out of his mangy worthless body by whatever means necessary, and then be turned into a splotch on a cave wall in Torra Bora.

And Dean is a total idiot who the ever PC pandering Democrats and their media lackeys richly deserve. He's their Frankenstein's monster of their own creation, not ours, but it will be a hell of a lot of fun over the next few months watching them try to destroy him. Limousine peasants from throughout the Liberal village will take up their torches and pitchforks to kill their own creation.
