Michael Reagan advocates LYNCHING Howard Dean! (newsmax)
Michael Reagan, son of the late President Ronald Reagan, is blasting Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean for declaring that the U.S. won't be able to win the war in Iraq, saying Dean ought to be "hung for treason."

"Howard Dean should be arrested and hung for treason or put in a hole until the end of the Iraq war!" Reagan told his Radio America audience on Monday.

Reagan was reacting to Dean's comments earlier in the day, when the top Democrat said that the "idea that we're going to win the war in Iraq is an idea which is just plain wrong."

In a Texas radio interview, Dean predicted a rerun of the Vietnam debacle, where U.S. forces had to withdraw after Congress voted to cut support for South Vietnam's government.

I have never seen the wingnuts so unhinged! Attacks on Dean are coming from the White House, from Chimpy himself, from this drunk, from Rush Limbaugh--everywhere.

No crap. They're just in full attack mode lately. Like rabid dogs who know they're about to die.

3. If anyone now doubts Dean was the candidate Rove feared..
(because of his stance on Iraq), I think you can be convinced now.

12. Amen!
I was shocked at how many actually bought into Rove's act that he wanted Dean to be the nominee.

5. Neal Boortz was attacking Dean as well this morning.
The Dean meme must have been the subject of today's Rove conference call to the RW media.

9. No Mike, your daddy should have been lynched for Iran-Contra.
Edited on Tue Dec-06-05 03:57 PM by edbermac


The Iran-Contra Affair (also known as "Irangate") was a mid-1980s political scandal in the United States. President Ronald Reagan's administration sold arms to Iran, an avowed enemy. At the time, Americans were being held hostage in Lebanon by Hezbollah, a militant Shi'a organization loyal to Ayatollah Khomeini, and it was hoped that Iran would influence them to release the hostages; at the same time, Iran, which was in the midst of the Iran-Iraq War, could find few nations willing to supply it with weapons. The U.S. diverted proceeds from the sale to the Contras, anti-Communist guerrillas engaged in an insurgency against the elected socialist Sandinista government of Nicaragua. Both the sale of weapons and the funding of the Contras violated stated administration policy as well as legislation passed by the Democratic-controlled Congress, which had blocked further Contra funding.

13. Sounds like a terroristic threat
Maybe the "Patriot Act" should be used against him. If he is inciting violence against others that he himself can't or won't do, then the use of the current law should make him disappear into one of those places no one wants to acknowledge exist and deny him the right of counsel or habeas corpus. Just sayin'.

20. So, you want to really fight dirty by using their own tactics on them.
How unfair can a person get?

19. For God's sake they act like we were invaded by Nazi's or something
Oh wait, we were. LOL. (Bushies) Good GOD this is an elective war that has nothing to do with my safety. I don't think I've seen any Iraqi tanks or suicide bombers or planes here or anywhere in this country have you? That's because they are "dying instead over there"-oh I know-these people can't even run their own country (I know much of that is our fault) and they are a threat to me? Reality is not needed. Do men need war to feel alive? To have a reason to live? Apparently so..war never goes away even if made up reasons are given for it.

28. Dean is always just slightly ahead of public opinion.
All the Dem candidates gave him crap for his opposition to the war. 6 months later they were sounding an awful lot like him. It's really kind of a funny commentary on what wafflers politicians are.
