DEAN: We don't want another wall with 55,000 names of courageous Americans
FROM:
Dean Delivers the Democratic Radio Address
June 24, 2006

A majority of the American people don't believe the President is telling the truth, while the Administration and its supporters question the patriotism of veterans who disagree with them, accusing them of "cut and run".

And among the victims are brave American soldiers who are the targets of an insurgency because of failed political leadership and a lack of foresight and planning. We don't want another wall with 55,000 names of courageous Americans who were let down by their Government.

The words "cut and run" don't belong in this debate. That's a disservice to our courageous soldiers. This debate is about not making the same mistakes our Government made a generation ago.

Democrats believe it's time for a new direction in Iraq that's tough and smart, and we offer America a security strategy that's tough and smart.

1. ...Sigh. How many times have I said that here? Too many. Glad to
see the upper reaches of the Democratic party are FINALLY figuring it out.

3. Great stuff from Dean
I hope every Dem on the Sunday shows has the same thing to say. Even Biden.
ESPECIALLY Biden.
If they do, we've won this argument, even if we didn't win the vote.

4. But republicons do...
they are still fighting the war in Vietnam. They have to prove to the world that the U.S. is the baddest country on the earth, and that they can do what they want to anywhere, anyhow and anyway they want.

5. Sound byte for Dean...
Could YOU please start calling the Repugs exactly what they are?

A Party of Political Schizophrenics-

They are DELUSIONAL!

They are COMBATIVE!

They are THREATENING!

They are PARANOID! (pre-emptive strikes are a good thing to them)

They exhibit ALL the symptoms of Paranoid Schizophrenia!!!

Of course they'll Demand an Apology after the labeling..

Tell them to: SUCK IT UP and deal with it!
