2. Ugh, are they referring to the
ancient Confederate flag flap? The comment that got applause from DNC members and supporters for months and months, the one that Dean's African American Deputy Campaign Manager let him say for months and months, the one EVERYONE understood perfectly well and had no qualms about it whatsoever, until Dean's primary opponents ganged up on him in that debate?

3. Nope
He told the GOP if they wished to have more Blacks in their conventions that they should invite the hotel staff. I loved it!

6. THAT was the recent remark about the Repukes being racist!
Dean is kicking some ass and if they recycle that old statement about the rebel flag wavin' rednecks, fuck em.

Speaking of recyclying old news, I saw a clip of Clinton saying, "I did not have relations with that woman" TODAY!!! WTF? How long are they going to milk that one? :eyes:

5. Was his campaign manager a Northerner?
That was a dumbass remark. Very insensitive. The LAST thing the Democrats need are rebel flag wavin' rednecks. I know that's not what Dean meant, but someone really fell down on the job on researching that.

Down here, a rebel flag on a truck mean RACIST redneck, not just redneck. They also should have been aware of the HUGE case in SC over the rebel flag.

This old news is being recycled because Dean recently said something about the Repukes being racist, in so many words.

Fuck them and their Repuke spin, we know what party is racist and so do 90+% of the blacks in this country.

9. Let's fire him then, and get someone who never makes mistakes.

Get someone who will talk sweet and nice. And be an appeasing type person. Someone who is very cautious and very sure to not say anything lest they be misunderstood.

7. Stop watching "H&C"...
...they are no more a "real" news organization than "Jeff Ganon" and "Talon News". Dean made a comment about the REPUBLICANS being racist elitist snobs. But of course, that's never stopped Rush and Hannity and their ilk from just making shit up.

8. Okay, that's the second one tonight. Someone tried to say Jews earlier
were alienated by Dean. But it was the RNC using Repub Jews to make the point. Then there was the "Democrat" who defected who turned out to be a Zell type anyway. And now this.

Back away from the Hannity. He'll rot your brain. Even the freepers agree.
