NEWSFLASH!!!!! Dean wont be running for President in 2008

[tinanator]

Are his ardent supporters wounded by this?
Morton's, anyone?

[Kolesar]

1. Morton's? ... eom

[TahitiNut]

2. Salt ... I suppose for "open wounds"

:eyes: :shrug:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

3. Better question: Isn't this post just flamebait?

[OzarkDem]

4. Yep

If the Repub trolls think their party is so great, why don't they come out of the closet and discuss issues openly instead of posing as Dems?

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

6. You might want to edit that before the mods get it.

You can't openly call someone a freeper like that...

[OzarkDem]

14. Its no wonder

they have so many of them in here, then.

[Kolesar]

7. You missed a good DU meetup in Strongsville a week ago.

The first of its sort in Cleveland. We met at the Mad Cactus.

[OzarkDem]

13. How was it?

I didn't get back from Columbus until late. Hope you all had a good time!

[Kolesar]

5. At face value, I don't know what it is

At least the threads that I start have clear CONTEXT. I don't just string together some stuff from previous threads and previous harms that leave readers thinking :wtf:

[tinanator]

8. well, if that satanic Dept of Peace clown hadnt smeared Dean so much

these kind of comments wouldnt happen. Sorry I missed the whole thread that cannot be named circus, I was outta town. There are some real sick bulldogs in these parts with very difficult to understand agendas, and this little saddle burr is the only explanation I can imagine.

[Guaranteed]

15. Sounds like you're angry because Kooch's pacifism

isn't getting all that great of traction with the Democrats.

[tinanator]

16. sounds like you think Kucinich is a pacifist?

wouldnt the truth work better for you?

[Guaranteed]

17. Well, did he support the Afghanistan war or not?

Did you?

He voted for it, then he changed his mind and went around saying it wasn't justified, and then changed his mind again, instead only attacking it because we were bombing civilians.

If he's a pacifist, he should just come out and say it. We need real leadership in our party. We don't need to be pussyfooting around.

[tinanator]

18. what is real leadership in your mind?

the henpecking at Kucinich is fairly laughable in the end, when other prominent candidates were so closely aligned with Bush positions and intentions that you might as well close the Democratic Party doors and allow a real opposition party to give voters a choice.

[Guaranteed]

19. I wouldn't support a party that's against our country defending itself. nt

[tinanator]

21. and you think that is DK's stance?

where do you get off?

[Mass]

10. definitively!

[Guaranteed]

11. Attempted- I wouldn't call it GOOD flamebait, though.

Everyone already knows that.

Apparently this really IS news to tina?

[liberalnurse]

9. Thats a silly statement.....

assuming Dean supporters would be "wounded". Dean is exactly where we Democrats need him and were he wants to be.....Leader of the Democratic Party. Dean is a relentless and dedicated Democrat....I am grateful for all that he gives us. No, you didn't flame......You just exposed your weakness to me.

[tinanator]

12. clearly, someone is a mad dog about something

and that nonsense was truly ludicrous. Shame on anyone attacking a Democrat with integrity, but blind faith attack dog acolytes should mind their manners instead of shaking a phony bone the way it was done lately. madness, florida style, any way you slice it.

[underpants]

20. He already saved the Democratic party

He can do much more effective work as DNC chair than as a candidate. I fully support him a chair for the foreseeable future.

[tinanator]

22. I bet he likes the checks to boot!

Near as I can tell, Dean is about three things-
money, money, money.
-and for future reference, money is not the solution, Republicans have more money than God squirreled away in the Caymans, ask Austin-Fitts, and all the money in the world can only buy elections, not democracy.

[underpants]

23. I'm talking about the kick in the pants he gave everyone

and he was the first person many people saw on television criticising W on a national scale especially about how wrong the Iraq war was and how horribly they planned for it.

He also got the machinery started with his Deanie-boppers.

Compare the Democratic Party in 2002 to what it became (with the help of lots of moderates and many Republican volunteers) by November. It can all be traced back to Dean.

[lojasmo]

24. Newsflash from the "no shit" files. He announced this months ago. EOM

[Catchawave]

25. Didn't the "ardent" supporters realize....

his selection to the DNC chair was based on a promise he wouldn't be running in 2008 :shrug:

[NYCGirl]

26. Of course they did. Someone's just being pissy.

It's sort of the online equivalent of stamping your feet and threatening to hold your breath until you turn blue. A sort of cyber-tantrum.

[Skinner]

27. This looks like flame bait to me.

I'm locking.
