Howard Dean, who promised to change the way Democrats speak about the issues, has accused Republicans of being "evil," "corrupt" and "brain dead," attacks that are reminiscent of the angry language he used against the Republican Party in the 2004 campaign. The fiery former presidential candidate and Vermont governor was elected to run the Democratic National Committee after promising to reach out to voters, especially in Republican states, with a new and more positive outreach message aimed at expanding his party's shrinking base.
But a review of his speeches on the stump in the past month or more shows that his shoot-from-the-hip style remains as angry as ever. Among his most recent remarks: • In a speech in Kansas in February, not long after his election as DNC chairman, Mr. Dean said the contest between Democrats and Republicans was "a struggle of good and evil. And we're the good."
In Florida earlier this week, he accused Republicans of being "corrupt," saying, "You can't trust them with your money, and you can't trust them with your votes. ... Evangelicals don't like corruption either."
• In a closed-door Democratic fundraiser in Lawrence, Kan., he said conservative Republicans were "intolerant" on the issue of abortion. "They don't think tolerance is a virtue. I'm not going to have these right-wingers throw away our right to be tolerant."

He is truly the gift that keeps on giving!
The more lunatic fringe, the better, really. Hopefully they will never understand that.
Howard Dean is officially an honorary Republican!
Just think about all the money the RNC will be saving on advertising...
What a great picture of a little idiot with a big mouth!
Dang---I wish he would hurry up and make the Sunday talk show circuit!!
Maybe every 2--3 weeks ought to do it!!
The dems are trying to distance themselves from him, like Kerry tried to distance himself from Edwards last year...at least towards the last, after all of the huggy-kissy stuff.
Its an evening for exploding toads

Jiminy, this guy makes that Hitler fella seem warm and loveable.
Can we take a collection to pay him to keep talking?
Ah yes, the left being tolerant of murder...again.
Can't even keep the campaign promises he made to his own party...... hahahahahahaha
Gore said he didn't think it was so funny....said it's giving HIS PARTY a poor image...said it's not 'atall' statesmanlike...said the Dems need his "guidance"...especially through this global warming threat....
"Ding ding, paging a REAL doctor, help desperately needed in DNC operating room". "Please hurry, the lights are going out".
You don't win friends and influence people by calling them names. But name-calling is a standard way of life to the dems so I don't expect them to change any day soon.
