Apparently former Vermont governor and failed presidential candidate Howard Dean didn't get the memo about toning down the hate speech during the Democratic National Convention, or perhaps that only applies to speakers on the podium.
Mr. Dean, during a "Take Back America" event Tuesday, accused the Bush administration of being "book burners," in an apparent effort to compare Republicans to Nazis.

BWAHAHAHAHA!
Funny that Howard Dean would say that when it is the Dems who are trying to keep at least two books from ever hitting the shelves again...
John Kerry's book...
And Unfit for Command...
A single data point doesn't mean a thing... Two makes a trend.
1. Unfit for Command
2. If Its Not Close, They Can't Cheat
3. (add yours here)...
So, which books are Republicans trying to 'burn?' Hmmm, fireman Dean?
Atos
Obviously, he wasn't referring to books that contained "lies" about veterans, funded with "hundreds of thousands of dollars" from a person in Texas.
Everyone knows you burn those books.
Unless they're written by Molly Ivans.
You missed Kerry's own "The New Soldier"
Do let's compare the list of 'censored' books, Liberals. I dare you. But, I warn you. I spend time in the public libraries of Portland.

Bump!
``The administration is manipulating the release of information in order to affect the president's campaign,'' Dean told the New York Times. ``The president has a long history of manipulating public opinion.''
And the following story has gotten no traction in the US:
Aug 17, 2004 - Eight terror suspects arrested in raids across England two weeks ago have now been charged.
Here are the charges in full:
DHIREN BAROT, 32, OF WILLESDEN, LONDON
• Conspiracy to murder.
• Conspiracy to commit a public nuisance by the use of radioactive materials, toxic gases, chemicals and or explosives.
• Possessing a reconnaissance plan of the Prudential Building in New Jersey.
• Possessing reconnaissance plans of the International Monetary Fund in Washington, the stock exchange and Citigroup, both in New York, and two notebooks with information on explosives, poisons, chemicals and related matters.
For clarification purposes, here is one of the terror alert articles:
08/01/04 - WASHINGTON (AP) -- The federal government warned Sunday of possible terrorist attacks against ``iconic'' financial institutions in New York City, Washington and Newark, New Jersey, saying a confluence of chilling intelligence in recent days pointed to a car or truck bomb.
In an unprecedented action, the government named these specific buildings in densely populated areas as among the potential targets:
Citigroup buildings and the New York Stock Exchange in New York City.
The International Monetary Fund and the World Bank buildings in Washington.
Prudential financial in northern New Jersey.
Well put. The 'Rats are all maniacs - nymphomanics, kleptomaniacs, and now pyromaniacs!
The left calls Bush Hitler then Kerry demands that he silence the Swift Boat Vets. Dean calls Bush a book burner and Kerry demands that bookstores refuse to sell Unfit For Command. Too rich.
Despicable hypocrisy!!
BUMP!
