The effort to attract such voters comes as Senate Democrats are preparing for confirmation hearings on Supreme Court nominee John Roberts.

"You guys are more than welcome in our party; just stay away from the Supreme Court."

[vpintheak]

I don't believe a word that comes out of his idiotic mouth. Rats are evil, plain and simple. You roll your dice with a Republocrat but a rat on the National level is evil.

[Snake65]

Huh? "We want pro-lifers in our party, as long as they're pro-choice" is what I'm getting out of this farrago.

[Always Right]

We welcome pro-life votes, just STFU.

[Cyclops08]

Translation : Dean wants pro-life votes, but has no intention of halting (or even slowing down) the lucrative baby murder racket.

[kerryusama04]

Still, he added, ''I think that we must be absolutely firm in being the party of individual freedom and personal freedom, which means that in the end the government doesn't get to decide, we do.''

Loosely trnslated - Pro-life Dems, come in, sit down, and shut up - Roe stands.

[stocksthatgoup]

But if you are looking to be on the Supreme Court......... You need NOT apply.

[jennyjenny]

"We'll welcome your support for votes (and donations) to help elect democrats, just don't expect us to vote or support your pro-life view."

[jstolzen]

These guys (Dems) are TOTALLY clueless.

The fact that they JUST. DON'T. GET. what "pro-life" means shows how totally and completely detached from reality the Dimocrats have become.

ZERO "pro-life" people will join the party that promotes the barbaric act of "Partial Birth" abortion. If it weren't so tragic, it would crack me up that he's gone out and is saying this (yeah..join our party..we're here to welcome you - as long as you agree with our beliefs..ROFLMAO!)

Dean and the rest of the far, far, FAR left (eg: NARAL, MoveOn.org) doesn't get it - and never will.

He's trying to put lipstick on a pig. It's still a pig.

[martin_fierro]

Dean: 'We need to welcome pro-life Democrats'

Yeah, both of 'em.

[capydick]

I don't know anybody in America who is pro-abortion.''

Your whole party leadership for one you f'in idiot.

[Casekirchen]

"I don't know anybody in America who is pro-abortion."

--- Sounds like a confession to me that the Democratic party is Anti-American.

[cbkaty]

"You people" are welcomed...just shut the he__ up!

[OpusatFR]

"I don't know anybody in America who is pro-abortion.''


How about your sister group, NARAL

[Flatus I. Maximus]

I do think we need to welcome pro-life Democrats into this party

You could start by apologizing for driving us out in the first place. No, wait, that would require you to admit that you were wrong for doing so, and fat chance that that's ever going to happen. Democrats only know how to make phoney apologies for hurting other people's feelings, and always with the implicit subtext that those who feel hurt are really being childish for taking offense in the first place, but they (the Democrats) are big enough to say things they don't really believe in order to kiss and make up.

My contempt for the party I used to belong to grows greater every time Dean opens his mouth.

[sittnick]

I'll take them a little more seriously when they run pro-life Dems against pro-abort Republicans. Why should a pro-lifer forfeit Santorum's majority and seniority in order to get a frosh Dem in Casey, Jr? Where was he when Specter was up? Where are the pro-life Dems to run against Snowe and Chaffee? Or the ever-obnoxious Nancy Johnson in the House?

Several years ago, I actually voted for Glenn Poshard for Illinois Governor, as I knew that George Lyin' Ryan was no good. Ryan lied about being pro-life, and was even much worse than Poshard on guns. THE CHICAGO DEMS SAT ON THEIR HANDS rather than let a downstate moderate Dem win.

[DoughtyOne]

Hmmm Dean, trolling for some of those 'white Christians' you guys have been trashing for the last decade?

[weegee]

"Democrats need to reach out to voters who oppose abortion rights"

HA HA HA. The lead of the article shows that the biased press disagrees in principle.

We favor CIVIL RIGHTS such as the right of that child to exist. MURDER (unless in self-defense) is no right.

If HATE is not a family value (as the homosexual activists tell us), then CHILD ABUSE is not a choice.

[muawiyah]

If Dean doesn't know anybody who is pro-abortion what's he doing working for the Democrats?

[WinOne4TheGipper]

''I think we need to talk about this issue differently,'' Dean said. ''The Republicans have painted us as a pro-abortion party. I don't know anybody in America who is pro-abortion.''

No. He should not be allowed to spin the debate. Dems. love saying how they're pro-choice and I'm sick of it. Show me one woman who actually chose to have an abortion, with the catch being that there was no pressure put on her from the "father", her parents, "friends", or even financial situations. You can't. Abortion is about the oppression of women, if anything.
