one could say that anyone who takes wheelchairs and artificial limbs away from the poor, elderly, and disabled is not a good guy. Please read the Time magazine cover article about Governor Dean.

QUOTE:
"Dean alienated progressives by tightening spending and successfully pushing tax cuts. "Howard would start (each budget cycle) by cutting programs for the needy, things like wheelchairs and artificial limbs", says State Auditor Elizabeth Ready, who has been both friend and foe to Dean. Horrified liberals would have to claw each benefit back from the tightfisted Governor."
