119. There is a difference between critiquing and ridiculing.
Now, I am NOT the one who started anything about Dean's campaign from before. It was the OP, NOT me.

I objected to the words used like "ridicule" "alien" "invaders" and more that I posted from the article. I objected their use against the people who traveled miles.

If you see nothing wrong with the words used in the article over an event that was painful and happened 3 years ago.....then that is your problem, not mine.

I am appalled at how the good old sensitive madfloridian thing just keeps on being done. It is a truly amazing meme. One would think it would soon be noticed how overdone it is, but people have too much fun with it.

I could tell you everyone on the campaign who criticized and self-critiqued. I know every detailed write-up about everything that went wrong. I know what Dean himself said that many mistakes were made.

BUT.....that was 3 effing years ago. THREE YEARS AGO. The use of the words ridicule, alien, and invaders along with the "flourescent" orange....was meant to be a dig.
