ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Howard Dean, the new chairman of the Democratic National Committee, called on the head of New York's Republican Party to apologize or resign Wednesday over remarks linking the Democrats to a civil rights lawyer convicted of aiding terrorists.

Dean called Stephen Minarik's comments offensive, and said, "The American people deserve better than this type of political character assassination."

On Monday, Minarik said that Dean's election shows that "the Democrats simply have refused to learn the lessons of the past two election cycles, and now they can be accurately called the party of Barbara Boxer, Lynne Stewart and Howard Dean."

Didn't Dean just make a crack about the GOP, blacks, and hotel staffers?

Oh, he "must."

Emporer Dean has no clothes and cannot tell anyone what to do.

"Republican Gov. George Pataki scolded Minarik on Tuesday, saying his remark was not "within the realm of appropriate political discourse."

Shut the hell up Pataki.

What exactly is he supposed to apologize for? All he did was tell the truth. Besides I would have thought old Howie would be proud to be mentioned along with Stewart. Birds od a feather after all.

Considering the amount of political character assasination the Deaniacs, libs and other lefties threw at President Bush, this is simply remarkable. Have they no shame?

And the same guy that said the only way Republicans could get more people of color in the meeting room at one of the Dems caucuses would be to invite the hotel staff...
