Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Republicans who refuse to get vaccinated against COVID-19 were “disgusting.” Dean said when asked about reports that former President Donald Trump tested positive for COVID a few days before the first presidential debate in 2020, “Look, Trump was the most immoral and irresponsible president in the history of the country. He may or may not be the worst president, but he certainly is in contention. But he was certainly the one with the fewest morals and scruples and certainly the craziest in terms of psychiatric illness....

When it comes to identifying nutcases, some might say that Howard Dean gleans valuable experience daily, while shaving. The failed presidential candidate put his expertise to dubious use on Morning Joe today, calling National Review editor Rich Lowry a "right-wing nutcase." Lowry's sin? Having written a column mocking Eric Holder, and President Obama's decision to put Holder in charge of investigating himself in the James Rosen affair. View the video here.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House criticized Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean on Tuesday for saying it is wrong to think the United States will win in Iraq, saying he was sending the wrong message to U.S. troops. Dean told San Antonio, Texas, radio station WOAI that "the idea that we're going to win the war in Iraq is an idea which is just plain wrong." He predicted the Democratic Party would come together on a proposal to withdraw National Guard and Reserve troops immediately, and all U.S. forces within two years. White House spokesman Scott McClellan said President George...

Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean, unapologetic in the face of recent criticism that he has been too tough on his political opposition, said in San Francisco this week that Republicans are "pretty much a monolithic party. They all behave the same. They all look the same. It's pretty much a white Christian party."

If liberals can call George W. Bush a ‘loser’ and Tom DeLay a ‘criminal’ with no evidence to support their claims, then at a minimum Howard Dean has qualified himself as an authentic ‘psycho.’ In the latest chapter of “The Name Game,” Dean confused Osama bin Laden with Saddam Hussein, unintentionally grouped himself with Republicans as “evil,” and shocked America with the revelation that Tom DeLay is a fugitive from justice. And that was all in one interview. Imagine what would happen if anyone actually listened to him for more than thirty minutes. NBC host Tim Russert asked Dean to...

Message to the Republican base: Howard Dean, the new chairman of the Democratic National Committee, says he's coming after you. In an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday, Dean said Democrats are "reaching out all over the place, speaking to all kinds of people - and he specifically mentioned evangelicals and Catholics. "I've been to 18 states. Of those, eight of them have been red states," Dean said. "We're trying to get our message out everywhere. We are going to go after the Republican -- what they think is the Republican base. We're going to go after red...

WASHINGTON -- After Howard Dean last weekend declared Tom DeLay ought to be in jail, a longtime Democratic operative told me the party's national chairman had momentarily ripped off his muzzle but that it soon would be restored. My source erred, however, in believing that Dean ever had been muzzled. It's just that nobody has paid much attention to his rants. Since his election as chairman of the Democratic National Committee [DNC] on Feb. 12, Dean has studiously avoided most national television exposure. But he has been talking constantly to party gatherings across the country, and his intemperate language at...

Dean, Buchanan offer some shared concerns at fund-raiser 3/3/2005, 9:39 p.m. ET By KATHY BARKS HOFFMAN The Associated Press LIVONIA, Mich. (AP) — Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean and conservative commentator Pat Buchanan said Thursday that they are concerned about the growing federal deficit and the movement of American jobs overseas. The pair spoke to nearly 1,000 people at a $125-per-plate fund-raising dinner for Michigan State University's 2005 Michigan Political Leadership Program at Laurel Manor. They disagreed on many issues, but reached agreement on more than a few. Buchanan said the nation must do something to stem its growing...

Howard Dean, who is leading in most polls and is benefitting from a major fundraising effort fueled by hundreds of thousands of people giving small donations over the internet (25% from people under 30 years old), spoke to an enthusiastic crowd at Sidetrack, 3349 N.

Major service union to endorse Dean By LEIGH STROPE The Associated Press 11/6/2003, 3:17 a.m. ET WASHINGTON (AP) — In a major boost to his campaign, Democrat Howard Dean is getting a prized presidential endorsement from one of the nation's largest unions. The endorsement by the Service Employees International Union, which has 1.6 million members, was being announced Thursday, top union officials told at least three Democratic campaigns Wednesday night. It was to follow a meeting of the union's 63-member executive board, campaign sources said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. SEIU spokeswoman Sara Howard said Dean was the only...

The prospect that Howard Dean might end up carrying the Democrats' water next fall.</p> <p>Dean is the folksy physician from Vermont, a former governor who speaks to the heart of die-hard Democratic lefties.

Seems to me that we could have a lot of fun with this. I like making up fliers and handing them out.
