Dean responds: Dems intend to file ethics complaints

[cynatnite]

In a conversation with bloggers and journalists Wednesday evening, Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean reiterated his theme of a Republican “culture of corruption,” and put new focus whether Bush advisor Karl Rove leaked the name of a covert CIA operative.

The call, hosted by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, marked a new strategy by the Committee to increase outreach to online media. Dean has not previously spoken on the record with RAW STORY.

snip:
“Nobody likes corruption, whether they’re conservative or liberal,” he remarked. “I’d like to use this to spearhead election reform, banning voting machines that can’t be counted by hand… I’ve always been a big fan of instant run-off voting. We also need some reforms of ethics in congress.”

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.

5. I agree! I don't care what party they're in.

I realize there are lots of Dems filing late stuff with the FEC. I say if you screwed up, pay the damn price!

I am a Dem, but I won't support their illegal activities anymore than I support the Pubs!

All these politicians better learn this, or find another job!

Object lesson on just how bad from day to day the media has become.
