Dean imitates Kerry, calling for Rummy's resignation
Kerry called for Rummy's resignation last night on CNN's Paul Zahn Now


Howard Dean issued the following statement today. Join Governor Dean by signing the petition demanding that Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz must go.

A decision to send our sons and daughters, brothers and sisters to war is the most solemn decision any president can make. As president, I will not hesitate to send our military anywhere in the world to defend the United States and its key interests, but I will never do so without telling the American people the truth. The American people expect and deserve the truth from their leaders – especially an Administration that purportedly took office to “restore honor and dignity” to the White House. But we have seen something very different from this Administration.

I'll take it in December rather than the silly season.

21. Actually,
It's called "two different polls."

Same result: Double digit lead.

I'll take it in January, you can have December.

Oh yeah, Bush is really taking up those 16 questions now isn't he?

The only time this Administration reacts is when they're confronted with John Kerry. Cutting the soldier's pay and benefits, veterans benefits, support on the ground, the post-war plan, going back to the UN. These are things that the Administration was forced to respond to because of Kerry, not Howard Dean. They're certainly still playing their games, but Kerry and other Senators like Biden and Byrd are the ones taking it to the Administration. It's time to face reality, Kerry is ALREADY leading in foreign policy and moving this country forward, not Howard Dean.

15. I have a clue
I got it when Dean didn't get a single answer to his 16 questions and went off to the next headline to grab knee-jerk support.

3. I'll be impressed when someone of Dean/Kerry's stature
asks for Bush's resignation, thank you!

13. Hear, hear!
One thing I disagree with Dean on was his statement a couple months ago calling on Bush admin figures to resign; he didn't say Bush should resign, though, and that's the head of this rotting fish of a presidency.

19. Maybe he was trying to subtly insinuate
that Bush is just a figurehead and that the people really responsible for the decisions should go.

Or maybe not! :D

7. Like candidate, like follower
Apparently the Kerry supporters are just as clueless and lacking in original thought as their hero. Dean supporters have been pointing out that Kerry copies everything from Dean for a couple of months now, and so now Kerry supporters have to try and claim that Dean imitates Kerry. I guess that is why they like Kerry, Uncreative, unoriginal, derivative birds of a feather, as it were.
