Dean: Bush terror policy failed

[dArKeR]

Washington - Thursday's bombings in Madrid proved that the overthrow one year ago of the regime in Iraq has not made the world safer, former presidential candidate Howard Dean said Sunday, assailing President George W Bush's foreign policy.

"For the president of the United States to assert that we were safer because (former Iraqi President) Saddam Hussein is in jail is ludicrous, given what happened three days ago in Spain," Dean, a Democrat and former Vermont governor, told NBC's "Meet the Press."

Dean, whose candidacy was fuelled largely by outrage by his supporters over the US-led war in Iraq nearly one year ago, led most opinion polls prior to the start of the January's Democratic caucus and primary elections.

1. Absolutely right

and on target.

"For the president of the United States to assert that we were safer because (former Iraqi President) Saddam Hussein is in jail is ludicrous, given what happened three days ago in Spain," Dean, a Democrat and former Vermont governor, told NBC's "Meet the Press."

2. I love the words Dr. Dean uses in describing bush* and his

cabal, first was "ludicrous", and when he was asked about what Condi SleazyRice said about how Saddam was the world's greatest threat, Dean said that was "ridiculous".

Dean kicked ass on MTP, just watch timmy invite him back, especially when bush* keeps going down in the polls. the media smell blood in the water and they will join in the feeding frenzy.

Howard Dean, :yourock:
