A wind blows and toilets flush (Thank you, Dr. Dean!!!)
Edited on Sat Feb-12-05 11:50 AM by Husb2Sparkly
A breath of pure, sweet, clean, **fresh** air just blew into Washington. Dr. Howard Dean is now chair of *our* party. One of his comments was about policy coming from the bottom up and not from the top down.

Thank you Dr. Dean! God Bless You.

As The Good Doctor made that reference to the direction of policy, not only was a fresh and balmy breeze blowing. A wind of change blew right down K Street. That flushing? That was the consultants shitting! No longer do the hacks have the former Democrat policy of "Follow the Losers" to use as their retirement plan.

It is once again **our** party.

Thank you Dr. Dean! God Bless You.

1. Hallelujah! and thank you for keeping us posted
because i do not have cable and have to depend on posts like yours to tell me what was said.

We have taken our party back from the Neodems who are in cahoots with the Neocons with an agenda that is NOT in support of America.

2. From AP article
I like this quote: "The way I hope to deal with that problem, is not to abandon our core principles, but talk about them in a different way," he said.

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&e=2&u=/ap/20050212/ap_on_re_us/democrats

The article also says his "sometimes caustic, blunt comments can lead to controversy." But how much of that "controversy" is screeching from Republicans? I think it's a good sign when Republicans advise Democrats against something -- if they advise against it, then it's what we need to do. Look at who they did and didn't smear in the primaries, or imagine how they'd have reacted if Joe Lieberman ran for party chair -- they'd have said glowing things about him, as they always do. That says it all.
