To hell with Howard Dean

If this is what the Democrats are doing, I'm through with them


DNC Chair Howard Dean screams support for Bush and the occupation of Iraq (Photoshop credit: Evil Pundit)

The one-time Democratic presidential front runner in the 2004 primary campaign declared before a crowd of 1000 at the Minneapolis Convention Center that, ``Now that we’re there, we’re there and we can’t get out.''

Myth. There is nothing, zero, zip, nada that the US is holding together in Iraq, except for the resistance to its own presence. Removal of the US would allow Iraq to face its serious struggles (yes, they would be serious) as a sovereign country. It would do much better than any paternalistic American commentator suggests.

Dean went on to throw a big lollipop of support for President Bush, whose deceit incited the destructive war. Read more about the pathetic posture of Dean and the Democrats in this piece by Kevin Zeese.
