In call with bloggers, online media, Dean raises Rove, ethics
Dean said a new DNC and DCCC ad buy targeting six Republican districts is “the beginning of a campaign to focus on the culture of corruption in Washington.” He invoked the “culture of corruption” phrase repeatedly.

2. The Republican Party in this country makes corruption in India
look like childs play.


And I thought only India's politicians are corrupt as hell. Whoa!

12. It's certainly unlike anything I've seen before
I thought Reagan's bunch was nasty, but dang... these guys are either the same bunch we had with Iran-Contra or new recruits with an even greater disregard for ethics. India may have its problems, of which I'm generally unaware, but America is now ruled directly by a crime family of unprecedented power.

21. It's Not Exactly What The RW Had In Mind When They Declared "Culture War"
Serves the self-righteous right, though. The culture they declared war on was the one that started this country and brought it peace and prosperity.

And by the way, they hate US for our freedoms!

5. Yeah, I do too!
"Dean said Democrats intend to file ethics complaints targeting Republican members. He dismissed suggestions that he was out of sync with Democratic members of Congress.

“Our roles are different,” he said. “They’re in a legislative battle every single day. They’ve got to deal directly with the ethics complaint. I have the luxury of making a long-term plan to get Democrats in power again.”


Here's to your "long term plan", Dean! :toast:

11. Love it - Culture of Corruption! Fits like a Glove.
Look below the article for "comments." Appears a possible FReeper and maybe a downer is leaving not so good remarks. I counter-remarked positive but thought others might want to leave their mark for Dean.

18. Culture of Corruption.
That is a great phrase "Culture of Corruption." Perfect wording, it would make Lakoff proud. I think Dean is going to do some great things for this party. He's looking to win in the long term and that's a great plan. You gotta have slippery slope initiative!

19. Speaking of Rove,he was supposed to be on an NPR talk show,but isn't.
Which might make it seem like he has something to hide.Friday morning on her NPR show,Diane Rehm announced that Rove told her he'd be a guest on her show sometime this week.Of course,the Lawrence O'Donnell revelation on the McGlaughlin Group aired on Friday night.The Rehm show filled in the last space on this week's schedule on their webpage last night,which was today at 10 AM.I was waiting to see if it would be Rove.It's not.

22. The need to repeat this mantra
in print, electronically... we need to repeat the phrase 'Culture of Corruption' in connection with the GOP over and over til it becomes imprinted in America's consciousness.

Simple sound bites... this is what we need!!


Good work, Howard!!
