"The real issue is this," Dean said in March 2004, when endorsing formal rival Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., "Who would you rather have in charge of the defense of the United States of America, a group of people who never served a day overseas in their life, or a guy who served his country honorably and has three Purple Hearts and a Silver Star on the battlefields of Vietnam?"

Like to see this in a McCain political ad.

Of course, that honorable service in Vietnam was pretty much canceled out by Kerry's rather dishonorable and deplorable accusations against our troops when he testified before Congress in 1971. I thank God no one forgot about that.

Nice thing about the digital age -- 25 years ago nobody would have spent hours combing through stacks of old news reports to find this stuff. Today it just takes somebody a few keystrokes.

We would have a President Kerry right now if Rathergate hadn't been exposed even as the program was still running.

"...but he can’t change the fact that he cast aside his principles to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with President Bush the last seven years."

Now where have I heard that before?

I know! Didn't Nancy Pelosi assure the American people that the Democrats were standing soulder-to-shoulder with President Bush???

Yeah. That's where I heard it.

As for casting aside principles-- The only principle the Democrats have is power--power for its own sake! Get it any way you can. The Democrats are not going to cast that principle aside. You can certainly give them that.

RNC Deputy Chairman Frank Donatelli said, “Howard Dean owes John McCain an immediate apology and both Sens. Clinton and Obama should unequivocally denounce this disgraceful attack."

I really wish our side would not do this stupid stuff, calling for apologies and denunciations and calling remarks, however dumb and inappropriate, an "attack."

If the Republican Party was smart, it would start changing the vocabulary so as to make it sound like there are some adults in charge...but it isn't so it won't.
