Howard Dean on cnn live(cali) kicking Ass

[indictrichardperle]

"the right wing and * are undermining democracy in america with their Texas redistricting and their self-financed california recall"

Davis and Dean on now.

[Rose Siding]

1. Of course he is!

Dang, I missed it. The post I saw about it said 2 or 4pm and I assumed pst time. Was it on for long?

[madfloridian]

2. 4th time they have tried to undermine Democracy

He mentioned the election, Supreme court, was it CO?, and Texas.
Then Davis came on, they switched to Arnold baby.

He said they are attacking the underpinnings of Democracy, this extreme right wing.

[RevolutionStartsNow]

3. Go Dean!

Glad he did this, and also mentioned Texas.

[madfloridian]

4. This was an excellent thing to do.

There should be no pettiness in this thread, no matter who you support. What he did took courage, a lot of it.

[liberalnurse]

5. It sure did take courage.

He was a bit nervous ......stiff but I love him.....:)

[madfloridian]

8. Yes, I would have been nervous as well. Glad he said it.

We taped it, glad we did. It was short but powerful.

[DianeK]

6. sheesh

i have been looking forward to this since i saw the first post about it and i missed it!! i even tuned in at 2 and watched til about 2:10...when nothing was mentioned, i turned it off...so just barely missed it...hope they will rerun it...knowing cnn as i do i guess i can be pretty sure that they will

[liberalnurse]

11. Ahhh, I hate when that happens....

The message was very cutting to the right! I'm not sure they, CNN, will repeat it that much......they maybe scared to to that. Maybe snips during discussion interviews.

I hope they repeat it.....

[indictrichardperle]

7. notice Dean appears with Davis

Dean is showing guts and grabbing the leadership reins of the party. Smart move by Davis getting the fire-brand to rip into some neo-con ass on live TV.

[AP]

9. Sharpton was in CA all weekend a week or two ago doing the same

and Edwards was hear about a month ago. (I don't know if CNN reported on either, 'cause I like news and so I don't watch CNN).

I think they're all going to be doing this.

[madfloridian]

10. Did they pull all four items together?

If they did, I am sorry I missed seeing them.

[RichV]

12. Yep.

They sure did. Dean was harsh.

[madfloridian]

13. I am not getting pulled into you bash mine i'll bash yours.

I will ignore the "harsh" comment, and ask if you have a source that they pulled it all together.

That said, I know the news does not cover things well. I just have not heard all four tied together except here.

Is there an article or website? I realize others have been speaking out, I just have not seen or heard anyone else come out and say it so publicly.....that is...the election & Supreme Court, CO redistricting, TX redistricting, and CA recall.

On Edit: I am referring to a source not for Dean (saw that) but for one that the others had previously said this about the 4 events Dean tied together.

[liberalnurse]

14. It was live on CNN.....

We all listened....It was a quick segment.....I don't know but I suspect it will be on the Dean web site. You could go visit there. If they don't get it up, then you may request that they do so. My hunch is this is so powerful, his statement and endorsement essentially, it will be on the Dean web page.

[madfloridian]

16. I saw Dean, and was so proud. I was questioning his comment.....

about others tying all four events together.

We taped the CNN thing, and it was very well done. He said just enough and was firm.

[RichV]

17. Uh

Are you interpreting "harsh" negatively? It was harsh. Deservedly so.

And it was on CNN live. I don't have a source at all right now. I just watched them talk on my TV.

[madfloridian]

19. Ok, thanks, I appreciate your response.

Sorry I misread.
:hi:

[RichV]

21. No sweat

:-)

[madfloridian]

15. A sincere question: Is Dean the first to tie the four events together?

If Sharpton and Edwards mentioned all four events, they should credit as well.

[liberalnurse]

18. I do know I heard Davis do this about 2 weeks ago.....

It was when this recall started to divide the dem's and after he spoke to Clinton.

[madfloridian]

20. Thanks, that is what I meant.

:hi:

[AP]

32. Davis was definitely the first to do it, and he did it a day or

two after the press revealed that Davis was taking advice from Clinton.

[AP]

33. Sharpton framed it in those terms, and made a comment which

has since been incorporated in Feinstiens' commercials.

Sharpton was the first to point out that this has nothing to do with the defecit. He said that CA had the defecit last November when Davis was democratically elected, and CA had the defecit in January when he was sworn in. He said this has nothing to do with the defecit. It has to do with a bunch of rich republicans who are trying to overturn a democratic election with a tiny percentage of the votes.

Feinstein in her commercials points out the same thing, saying that within three months of losing the election, Republicans embarked on this project to overturn it.

22. all ( candidates MUST come to California the first week

of October in a Giant anti recall push. Their services Are required. Time to put personal ambitions aside . This one is for California. Be here or be square. Contact Willie Brown for particulars. He has mentioned an old fashioned whislte stop tour of the state complete with the Clintons and candidates. Suck the Air out of Arnold's last week.

[Gin]

23. thats exciting,,,,I hope all the candidates do this along with Clinton's

makes me proud to think about it....go Dean

[never cry wolf]

24. What a great thread!!!

No flaming, just support for one of our fine candidates taking on the repugs. I missed it personally but I support all who want to demean shrub and the cabal.

[madfloridian]

25. Hope the press does not totally ignore this.

We can't let them do it, really. Too much is at stake.

[Khephra]

26. I've seen bits replayed on CNN already

I'm going to tune into the Sat night news shows tonight to see if it gets any play.

But you all know Delay won't ignore this one.

:evilgrin:

[madfloridian]

27. I told Delay's aide that I was donating more to Dean.

She did not say much except huh? I said everytime Delay attacked Dean, we would donate more.

I also said we were supporting the Texas Dems because of Delay's interference.

[liberalnurse]

31. Oh great!!!!!

I had to go do my grocery shopping....I waited until Dean was on....

I'm listening to Guy James now, so I'll have to do multi-tasking....

I hope the repukes ears are burning.

[unfrigginreal]

29. Just saw a live report from David Shuster on MSNBC...

he hit most of the points that Dean made but left out the "Republicans are trying to undermine Democracy" remark.

I guess that something is better than nothing but they could play the whole Dean remark, it can't be more than a few minutes.

[liberalnurse]

34. I just saw that too!!!

Before Arnie came out to do a rally speech. It was brief, they did'nt show the red meat but it will definately be a target item for the repukes now. Good!

I was quite surprised that MSNBC picked up on it. They must of had a camera crew there but didn't broadcast the live version. I guess they regret it now.

This is a great distration to the *bush Sunday speech! :bounce:

Go Dean and Davis :bounce:


And...just vote No on the recall California. :)

[onecitizen]

28. So I missed it after all!!!

I've been trying since early AM to find out if what I heard was true. That Dean would be in CA to support Davis!

Go Dean Go!! This is one of your best moves yet! Again the first Dem to take a STAND!! This is why I love you!!

But I missed it all.

[newsguyatl]

30. as soon

as someone has pics or a write up on this, can you post it please?
