MSNBC Howard Dean smear-a-thon going on now
Playing the "Dean Scream" over and over.

Some horrible talking head/bimbo named Monica trashing Dean relentlessly.

Traitors! Every fucking one of them!

4. The Neo-Liberal media is scared of him
He's not fulfilling the passive-Democrat role that the media ideally like.

5. We need to document this and pass it on
Someone needs to log how many times the Dean scream is used in news segments in regards to him being the new DNC chair.

Perhaps the same treatment could be applied to Bush and show him with his face bruised from a pretzel whenever they discuss what he did that day.

6. Hey, no one watches MSNBC anyway
but this Dean hatefest is to be expected from the MSM. Never mind our "president" is a lying slimeball. Let's ignore all the scandals about HIM. :eyes:

13. Yeah...so you'd think they might want a NEW audience of 50+ MILLION..
By offering up the OTHER side of this debacle called the Bush Administration. Instead they waste nearly all their time and money trying to be another FOX.

7. Anyone who opposes Dean
opposes truth and honor in America.

Also opposes competence.

Heck with 'em.

8. He can take it.
Why are they wasting their breath, using up all their ammunition on Dean when he's not running for anything? Good ol' Dean is drawing their fire. Maybe it will keep the heat off our candidates.

15. Just let 'em wear themselves out.
They're like crying kids. They'll get tired of it and shut up, eventually.

10. This morning, both local and national NPR trashed Dean.
Especially disgusting was the local (Texas) talking head who claimed that Martin Frost would have made a better DNC chair.

Yeah, Frost would have built a Democratic Party that would be totally irrelevant.

Meanwhile, Dems, let's get going: SCREAM!

11. Is it this Monica?
"(Monica) Crowley, who received her PhD. in International Affairs from Columbia University, joined MSNBC in 2004 as a political analyst. She was previously with Fox News Channel, where she was a foreign affairs and political analyst since the channel’s launch in 1996. She also currently hosts “The Monica Crowley Show” on WABC Radio in New York.

Crowley is a prolific writer who has authored two best-selling books, “Nixon off the Record: His Candid Commentary on People and Politics” and “Nixon in Winter.” She has also written for The New Yorker, The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, The Baltimore Sun and The New York Post. Crowley worked as a Foreign Policy Assistant to former President Richard Nixon from 1990 until his death in 1994. She holds two master’s degrees in addition to her doctorate from Columbia University."

Worked for Nixon, Worked for Faux News...

16. Proves we made the right choice
If the Corporate media praises or approves of someone, you can be sure they're not anyone who's going to stand up for progressive ideals. Hopefully "loose cannon" Dr. Dean scares the poop outta the regressives! Let's ALL SCREAM REAL LOUD!!!

:headbang:

17. This just means they're now terrified
since Dean is their worst nightmare, a true centrist who has rejected those old maids in pants known as the DLC.

Consider the source.

You might also consider turning that garbage off. Jon Stewart was right. It's hurting you.

18. As far as I'm concerned that scream is the war cry we've been waiting
for! Liberals are on to the MSM. Republican's that were on the fence are starting to wake the hell up and see this administration does not represent them. Those too ignorant to realize it are whining and resorting to nonsense rhetoric.

this president will eventually go down. Dean will INSURE the Democratic Party is invigorated and out there getting their message across WAY BEFORE the 2006 and 2008 vote!

I'm feeling pretty good about the fact thugs are scared shirtless of this guy and are giving him publicity that doesn't cost the party one red cent!!!

20. So?
so what's the problem? If that's the best they can do, then they are just pathetic. There are boatloads of dirt on Bush, let alone the rest of his evil empire.

Replaying the scream over and over again will just make their viewers change the channel. People are like yeah so what. it was over a year ago.

For the record, I loved the scream. When I think about what the Republicans are doing I feel like screaming too. :headbang:
