Dems Disavow War Remarks by Dean, Kerry, al-Sadr
by Scott Ott
(2005-12-09) — A growing number of Democrats in Congress this week quietly distanced themselves from recent statements about the Iraq war made by DNC Chairman Howard Dean, Democrat Senator John F. Kerry and Iraqi Shiite Cleric Moktada al-Sadr.
While, so far, the party faithful have not called for any resignations, many disavowed the anti-war statements made by these leaders at a time when U.S. troops are in harm’s way.
Mr. Dean told a San Antonio, Texas, radio audience that the United States cannot win the war in Iraq. Sen. Kerry, on ‘Face the Nation’ said U.S. troops terrorize women and children in the night — a job he said should be done by Iraqi troops. And Mr. al-Sadr called for a timetable for U.S. withdrawal from Iraq and saying, “the occupier won’t grab our Iraq and its resources as long as we are alive.”
“These men speak for themselves and not necessarily the patriotic mainstream of the Democrat party,” said one unnamed Democrat Senator. “When I read what Dean, Kerry and al-Sadr said this week, my first reaction was ‘Not in my name, boys’.”
You mean he doesn't want to be named as part of the patriotic mainstream of the Democrat party? I mean, really! These people are made of absolutely nothing!
Democrats: the party of murder, treason and socialism.
