Gov. Dean: "Bush Can No Longer Be Trusted To Keep America Safe"

[kpete]

"The fact that the president was willing to reveal classified information for political gain and put interests of his political party ahead of Americas security shows that he can no longer be trusted to keep America safe," Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean said.

Trying to warn Americans and speaking truth with power :patriot:

[Virginia Dare]

3. DAMN STRAIGHT!!

This has to be the new Democratic talking point.

:kick:

[katty]

4. yes, keep grinding them down mr dean!

[AndyA]

5. Bush can no longer be trusted to protect and defend the Constitution of

the United States of America. Which is, basically, the oath he took to become President. Time for Bush to vacate the office!

[queenbdem87]

6. I love you Howard

I don't think McAuliffe would have made such a correct and bold statement.

[Solly Mack]

7. Could he ever?

I never trusted him.

[glitch]

15. Dean is very generously giving the stooges who trusted * an out.

I think it's sweet of him.

[Solly Mack]

18. He's a lot sweeter than I am

:)

[kenny blankenship]

8. Let's just say "He can't be trusted about anything, period."

Bush came in on a tide of corruption, partisan abuse, and last but not least, electoral fraud on an epoch-defining scale, thanks to his crooked brother and the ideological zombies his father and Reagan appointed to the Supreme Court.

[AuntiBush]

10. If One Looks Back Now, Clinton was all a Set-up

as well as the stealing of the elections = PNCA agenda = GOP EVIL Ba#tards!

[glitch]

16. I believe they impeached Clinton to poison the well because they knew

they'd be committing impeachable offenses and they wanted to innoculate the populace against pursuing another one so quickly.

Impeding Clinton's agenda was merely a perk.

[mwooldri]

14. Hear Hear!

I guess Chairman Dean wanted to be specific about one thing, but I don't trust el Presidente anymore about anything.

Mark.

[AuntiBush]

9. Could Have

Offered a 2 year co-op scholarship for AP studies just months back from retired AP'ers working so hard to find people of integrity, and courage along w/good writing skills.

Long story, won't speak of it out here, but had I not had so many tragedies occur in recent years and if I were a tad younger I would have went for it. They were "very" honorable, and well-meaning retired professors I might add.

Thank you, kpete.

11. KA- POWWWWWW

[bush_out_the_door]

12. Just curious what the Freepers are saying

Does anyone know what the Freepers are saying about the leak?

[pacalo]

13. Yyyessssss! Shout it out, Howard!

[Az_lefty]

17. thanks Doc!

:toast:

[The Magistrate]

19. Straight Talk From Gov. Dean!

He is shaping as the best Party Chairman of the current era.

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

[MissMillie]

20. Not only reveal the information

but to play dumb about it as everyone was trying to figure out where the leak came from.

We're supposed to TRUST this guy?

If he was legally allowed to declassify the info, whey didn't he just say so, and admit that he did it?

I think the full cost of the investigation of this leak should come out of his pocket.

[ArbustoBuster]

36. The full cost of the Iraq disaster...

...ought to come out of his pocket, too.

[Guaranteed]

21. Ouch- that's gotta REALLY hurt ole Chimpy.`

That's one hell of a shot Dean just put in him.

[Guaranteed]

22. Rate that sucker up! nt

[radio4progressives]

23. Done!

:kick: :thumbsup:

"In light of today's shocking revelation, President Bush must fully disclose his participation in the selective leaking of classified information. The American people must know the truth."

25. We Must Protect Ourselves From Our Government

This letter was Published in the Eureka Reporter on 3/6/06

Dear Editor,

RE: Area residents question what Bush knew about hurricane, 3/4/2006.

During and immediately after Katrina, as we all watched in horror and disgust, there was a very clear and strong sense that we have to protect ourselves from our government. They had not only failed us, they repeatedly took proactive steps to prevent recovery and assistance from reaching those in need. For many of us, this was only a reminder of what we already knew. For others, it was a wake up call.

Katrina, as a unique weather phenomenon, was hardly the first sign that we need to protect ourselves from our government. We should know this from the way global warming and peak oil are ignored. From the threat of jail without charges or access to an attorney. Because peace organizations are infiltrated and spied upon, and protests are forced into “free speech zones.” In the name of the U.S., torture is conducted at secret prisons. Warrantless wiretapping. 9/11.

If we are supposed to fear terrorism, let us clearly identify it. Those who hate our freedoms are those who sign legislation to restrict or cancel them. Those who inflict terror are those who have repeatedly ignored warnings before failing to protect us. The recently released videotape did not “allegedly” show Bush was warned. It showed Bush being warned and gave lie to his absurd claim that no one could have imagined the levees failing. Just like no one could have imagined planes flying into buildings while training exercises were being conducted on that exact scenario.

Fascism is a formula, a recognizable pattern that gradually engulfs a society. It is so blatant that it can’t be seen only when the media distorts reality by maintaining illusions of normalcy and by perpetuating the myths of democracy, capitalism, free speech, free markets and free press.

We do not consent. Support the truth.

26. Howard knows when to step in and take

charge of the situation... His job is to make sure people understand how crooked these rethugs are, that is not to hard to do considering all these indictments, convictions, charges, etc....

[Pacifist Patriot]

27. Bush Could Never Be Trusted To Keep America Safe

Seemed like an important distinction to make.

[confludemocrat]

31. Totally. Or "was never to be trusted to keep America safe"

[young_at_heart]

28. I didn't trust him when he just sat there reading "My Pet Goat"

Michael Moore showed us how trustworthy he is, but the "machine" called Michael a nutcase and all the corporations continued to back Bush/Cheney in a huge way. They are guilty too.

[pinniped]

29. Dean's statement implies * was able to keep Merka safe at some....

time in the past.

This is BS. *'s only job was to rape and pillage our country, that of other countries, and rob our treasury.

[Uncle Joe]

30. Kicked and recommended!

:kick:

[rman]

32. In fact there is ground to suspect he is making America unsafe

I thought we had already arrived at the conclusion the W is a criminal. Well, maybe it was Gore, not Dean who arrived at that conclusion.

[Scott Lee_]

33. "no longer"????

Uh, Howie....when COULD Der Chimpenfuhrer be trusted for a blessed thing?

[IndyOp]

35. He could never be trusted, ever, ever, ever...

And Dean is doing his job to explain this to all those who drank the cult-of-the-patriot flavored Kool-Aid.

:hippie:

[Independent_Liberal]

34. Help us build the case for impeachment Dr. Dean!

You're a hero!

[ItsTheMediaStupid]

37. Chimpy never was trustworthy

If our media had done their job in the 90's, he would have never been elected Gov of Texas, much less president.

[Senator]

38. An UN-Impeached Bushkid === Danger to the US

I don't see any other option in that statement.

[Brazenly Liberal]

39. Governor Dean is too generous

Bush NEVER could have been trusted to keep America safe.

And to think Howard is extending this courtesy to the slimeballs who swiftboated him.
