Howard Dean Stops By Seattle On Whirlwind Tour
<snip>
During a campaign stop in Seattle, Democratic presidential hopeful Howard Dean called President Bush a divider -- not the uniter he claims to be. . . .

"The president is sleeping comfortably in Crawford, Texas, tonight, but there are an awful lot of Americans who are kind of sleepless these days," he said. "They're sleepless wondering where their job went. They're sleepless about wondering where their health insurance went or whether they are going to have health insurance. They are sleepless wondering whether their kid is going to be the next to die in Iraq." . . .

Chris Vance, chairman of the state Republican Party, said Dean's economic agenda would be a nightmare for Washington state.

"I'm interested to hear how Howard Dean can claim he's some kind of populist man of the people when he wants to raise the people's taxes and take away part of their child tax credits," Vance said in a written statement released over the weekend.

Waaah waaah waah. I guess since tax cuts are Bush's only domestic policy, it isn't too surprising the only thing the Republicans can counter with is "Dean wants to raise your taxes".

2. Prof,
It was a Chimp barbecue. I walked out of there with fur and barbecue sauce on my face.
