"Republicans plan to poke more fun at the episode when Dean, now chairman of the Democratic National Committee, appears today at a Democratic Party event in Lawrenceville. The Young Republicans of Allegheny County are hosting a "Howard Dean Scream" contest outside the Church Brew Works, 3525 Liberty Ave., where Dean is scheduled to speak at a $25-a-person money-raising rally.

Monica Douglas, executive director of the county GOP committee, said the idea "is just to create some buzz."

Grow up, idiots. I wonder how many will wear their Club Gitmo shirts like they did in Madison last week. They are not very bright, and they need to sign up to go to Iraq.

(On edit to bold the Club Gitmo)
See the cute little Club Gitmo shirt? And the radio host in the background of the 2nd picture who poses with the flag? Stupid is as stupid does.

1. Wonder what Rove's screams will sound like

his first night in prison?

[jeff30997]

11. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooo......

Don't touch meeee!I have friends in high places ! Ouch !

[Cha]

OMG!

Just Desserts!

[BuelahWitch]

20. OINK!! Oink, Oink!!!

;)

[XemaSab]

28. You shore got a purty mouf

n/t

2. Good comment by the DNC spokesperson.

"Damien LaVera, a spokesman for the DNC, described the GOP counter-rally as "sad." He said Dean "is coming to Pittsburgh to talk about serious issues that affect Pittsburgh families and the best they can do is a silly scream contest."

"There are real issues that matter to real families. Let's talk about those," he said."

[Cha]

24. That is an excellent

comment by Damien LaVera. It is sad how the ..I don't even know what to call them anymore. They're way below human.

They have no core of truth or anything to work with so it has to be lies and smears.

Retribution will be a Bitch.

[madfloridian]

26. Tactics of humiliation....Rovian methods.

It is all they know.

[Cha]

30. "Tactics of Humiliation"..

that's a descriptive way to put it. They're are way too dense to know how it is they who are humiliated.

[Guaranteed]

3. He should show up at the contest and show them how it's done. nt

[madfloridian]

7. They did this in SC as well. Are they smart enough for college?

I thought the Young Republicans were basically a college group and up. They should enlist and go to Iraq.

[trogdor]

42. Does having an alma mater even matter?

The organization Karl Rove ran was called the College Republicans if memory serves. Young Republicans can be taken to mean any idiot under 30, including high-school dropouts.

[madfloridian]

44. College Republicans, yes. I connect them with Horowitz somehow.

They are, did, were trying to pass a law that would make sure professors were not too liberal. The legislator who proposed the law said he was influenced by the thought of David Horowitz and the College Republicans.

They threaten and sue professors, and that is very dangerous.

I don't know if the law passed, but the "shoot first, ask questions later" law passed. I would not be surprised if this one did as well.

[napi21]

12. Isn't that the truth! I've heard a lot of imitators, but nobody can

get it right! You see, the imitators don't have the from the heart enthusiasm that Dean has, and that's the only way they can even come close!!!!!

[Guaranteed]

14. I'd just like to see these Young Fucks shit their pants. nt

[Cha]

25. Dean owns that Scream..

Nobody can do like him! :D

[Carla in Ca]

33. That's what I am hoping for!

He watches for a few minutes, starts to shake his head, "No, no, no, that's not how you do it! Let me show you how."
Who knows, maybe he could get a few over to our side.

[NYCGirl]

40. Good idea! It reminds me of the story about Charlie Chaplin, who, in the

midst of his greatest success, entered himself (sans mustache and bowler) into a Charlie Chaplin lookalike contest — and LOST!

:-)

[Greeby]

4. ..........................

Nothing beats the original, where is that picture? All I can find are parodies

[XemaSab]

31. Here ya go

He's small, but that's the man!

[Bleacher Creature]

5. There are just too many things wrong with the pictures and stories here.

If I tried to list them, I'd be up all night. Needless to say, these two are world-class losers.

[acmavm]

6. Generally I recommend taking pity on people this lame, but considering

what a verminous bunch of scum they are, it's no holds barred time.

What we need is a good bush** impersonator. One that can capture that vacant start and the drooling while saying something totally stupid. Oh, and he'd have to mispronounce it badly at the same time. And we won't worry about whether or not it has any basis in fact. That never stopped bush** yet.

[madfloridian]

13. They are too stupid to deserve our pity. Frog march them to Iraq.

So we can start bringing our brave soldiers home. People are dying and this is all they can think of to do.

[trogdor]

43. Any Pittsburgers game for this?

Show up at the event, audition if you have to (I'm sure you can summon up a good YEEEEEAaaaRRRRRRRRGGGGgggGGGHHHH! on demand), and then launch into your best impersonation of President Dumbshit when the live mike gets handed to you.

[Enquiringkitty]

8. They just don't have the creative nature to come up with anything new.

[jobycom]

9. Good for them. Let's do a Karl Rove perp walk contest.

[Mad_Dem_X]

38. LOL! I like that!

:rofl:

[Chipper Chat]

10. Can the John Kerry Band-aids be far behind?

Do I dare say the Republicans have no legitimate subjects to talk about so holding a Dean-scream contest is classic Pub Avoid-the-issues.

[lojasmo]

15. What a bunch of losers.

Well, at least it keeps them from doing anything productive.

[madfloridian]

16. At the Madison one, Zulch said there were very few...in a corner...

of a bar. Drinking. The paper said only about 20. He did not sound like he saw that many.

[madfloridian]

17. It is even on their Young Republicans website calendar.

Maybe they secretly love Howard....nothing else is on that calendar. BORING!

http://www.yr-ac.com/events.asp

3 events for the whole month. Look at it! They don't do anything but have scream contests. They are not smart enough to think of things.

[napi21]

18. I wish I had known sooner that HOward was oging to be there!

I have several friends in Pgh who would have loved to go! I can't call them at almost 1AM to tell them now!

Pittsburgh is a very blue part of PA. Howard will be welcomed big time!

These other idiots probably won't even make the 6 o'clock news!

[Justitia]

19. Why the hell aren't they bleeding for their beloved, traitorous leader in

Iraq? I want all the damn warmongers to replace our young troops who are ready to GET THE HELL OUT OF THAT PLACE.

Instead, these fuck ups are heckling a Dem Party event.

I swear to God, if I was there, they would WISH they were in Iraq.

I am so sick of these stupid, chickenshit, traitor loving, war profiteer supporting COWARDS.

Support the War - get your lazy asses to Iraq and send a soldier home!

[madfloridian]

21. 2 of the 3 events on their website calendar are Happy Hour....

and George Bush's birthday. I hope someone gets pictures.

[BuelahWitch]

22. Sounds like a job for a good pie tosser

Got pie?

[deadparrot]

23. I'd go down there with some water balloons, personally.

If I wasn't, you know, 12 hours away from Pittsburgh. :)

[Sparkly]

27. Democrats should have their own, bigger and louder.

That'd definitely defuse this.

Husb has often said the "Dean scream" should be adopted as our rallying cry. How about a loud rally where Democrats give the scream in unison? A leader could shout out all the reasons we have reason to hope, followed by the "scream."

"And we've got a true fighter in Harry Reid!" "YEAHH!"
"John Conyers will not be silenced!" "YEAHH!"
"The Bush Cabal will never take our country from us!" "YEAHH!"
"We're gonna take back the Congress in 2006!" "YEAHH!!"
"Dr. Dean is bringing new life to our party!!" "YEAHH!"

It'd be great if we embraced the scream and used it to the point that when people heard it, they'd figure, "Democratic rally."

Of course, counter ridicule could also be fun... A contest to see who can fall off a bike first? Fun trivia about Bushisms or true disasters of the administration? A Scotty McClellan impersonation contest, to see who can best avoid answering a question through repeated catch-phrases?

[madfloridian]

29. Get pictures of them in their Club Gitmo shirts from Rush's site.

They should be so embarrassed. I bet they don't even know better.

[madfloridian]

32. The RNC summer meeting is in Pittsburgh this week. Interesting.

Dean's visit coincides with it. Maybe there should be some frog marching outside their rally. No more stupid than doing that to Dean.

Rover and Mehlman were both leaders of this group of Young Republicans, and the group exhibits their charactistics.....Rove's humiliation tactics and Mehlman's inability to think outside of talking points.

http://pittsburghlive.com/x/tribune-review/trib/pittsburgh/s_353961.html

"Several hundred GOP leaders will descend on Pittsburgh in early August for a national conference that's designed as a business session but also aims to bolster U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum's re-election prospects.
Santorum, the third-ranking Republican in the Senate, is facing a serious challenge in next year's election from state Treasurer Bob Casey Jr., who is a heavy favorite to win the Democratic nomination.

Pittsburgh was chosen as the site for this year's Republican National Committee Summer Meeting -- set for Aug 4-6 at the Omni William Penn Hotel, Downtown -- at least in part because Democrats have made Santorum, of Penn Hills, a top-priority target in 2006, said RNC spokesman Aaron McLear.

"Howard Dean, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, will be in Lawrenceville on Tuesday in an effort to strengthen the party's base and fire up local Democrats. Vice President Dick Cheney is scheduled to visit Pittsburgh on July 25 to raise money for the re-election campaign of U.S. Rep. Tim Murphy, R-Upper St. Clair. Cheney was last in the region in March, when he appeared at a forum in McCandless with U.S. Rep. Melissa Hart, R-Bradford Woods. Murphy and Hart also are considered high-profile targets because their districts have more registered Democrats than Republicans. "

35. Why do most young repubs look like Skippy from "Family Ties"?

eom.

37. let them scream. may they lose their voices completely.

[Totally Committed]

39. Just remember: Imitation is the highest form of flattery! n/t

TC

[msongs]

41. go there with your military enlistment forms to give out AND/OR

invite them to come to the Dean appearance and show us how to do it from the podium. you know, put up or shut up.

[GreenPartyVoter]

45. Yep

[JerseygirlCT]

46. Here's the thing:

it's a backhanded compliment, really. Are we out doing Mehlman imitations? (shudder). Dean scares them. He matters. He makes a difference and worries them. Thus the attention.

[ComerPerro]

47. Lets get these motherfuckers in the line of fire in Iraq

then we can hear them really scream.

Probably wet their pants, too.

[Demobrat]

48. If that's all they've got

they should enjoy themselves.
