Lots of buzzing over Howard Dean's telling slip o' the tongue on Meet the Press yesterday in which he confused Saddam and Osama (video via Jackson's Junction; transcript at MSNBC):
But the thing that really bothered me the most, which the 9-11 Commission said also wasn't true, is the insinuation that the president continues to make to this day that Osama bin Laden had something to do with supporting terrorists that attacked the United States. That is false. The 9-11 Commission, chaired by a Republican, said it was false."
Whaaaa?
Dean repeated the mistake again:
And the truth was Osama bin Laden was a very bad person who was doing terrible things, but that Iraq was never a threat to the United States. That was the truth.
Whoops. Looks like Dr. Dean can't keep his crackpot attacks straight. Recall that in December 2003, he waded into the far-left swamps to float the theory that Bush knew in advance about the Sept. 11 attacks--leading Charles Krauthammer to diagnose Dean with Bush Derangement Syndrome.hreat to the United States. That was the truth.
Russert did no follow up, probed none of his answers. They just went thru their charade and no doubt high fived each other after the show.
Howard Dean is a BOOB!
I saw it and it was hilarious. What a retard.
"Osama bin Laden and 9-11? Never! These are lies from terrorist Bush!"

Have another drink, Howard.
holy crap thats funny!
I don't know why so many people (many of them conservatives) give kudos to Russert for asking tough questions. Even if he does ask tough questions, he lets his liberal guests ignore and sidestep them without keeping them on point.
This is what I liked about O'Reilly when I used to watch him. He was the first interviewer to say "I don't think you answered the question" to his guests.
Did you mean "Osama Obama" or "Obama Osama"?
Re: #8,
ROTFLMAO
Howard Dean....the gift that keeps on giving!
Gotta see #8. LOL
I like Howard Dean. He's the voice of liberalism. Too many Democrats run around these days pretending to be conservatives. That Howard Dean is honest about his beliefs he's the embodiment of liberalism. GO DEAN! Show em what you stand for!
'Fraid so. M.D. I doubt he's got the smarts to write a dissertation even in one of the debased, grievance laden, (fill in the blank) Studies disciplines which now afflict American academe.
Dean is NUTS
Rush used to go on Russert's show and act as if they were buddies.
DUmmies: don't confuse an evil dictator with an evil terrorist...
