Dean hitches his propaganda wagon to the Saddam news today
Just say Dean on the news (ABC?). He rattled off a bunch of propaganda-like pro-war stuff: "THis is a Proud Day for our troops, for our nation, for our leaders...yadda yadda yadda..."

Afterward George Will and Stephanopoulous congratulated him on his spin mechanics...

I think I need to take a shower after watching Kerry, Gephardt, and now Dean kowtow to the Daily Propaganda Theme in order to curry more favor with the media...

And to top it off, most of the DUers here will never even notice....

4. Dean is SUPPOSED to be a ANTI-WAR candidate...you don't celebrate,...
Edited on Sun Dec-14-03 12:05 PM by cryofan
an act of war (which is what happened this yesterday when Saddam was captured. You know, there were troops and guns and stuff involved) if you are an anti-war candidate.

Duh!

You say that we need to get out of Iraq....
Dean is a hypocrite, just like Kerry and Gephardt, who also tried to ride the coattails of the Saddam capture today.,...

5. So you're saying DK is pro-Saddam?
If so, well I think I need to reevaluate my support of him.

3. Their is a big difference between anti-Saddam and pro-war.
Who is using spin? I think that would be you, buddy.

6. Fortunatley for Kucinich

8. Kuciniches response?
Would he be in favor of releasing saddam? Look , just because guy was a never a viable candidate is no reason to attack the front runner.
