What's the proper title...a "Deanie Weenie", or "Weenie Deanie"---OR---Just refer to him as shit-for-brains!?

In spite of the news of the past week concerning Howard Dean's Vietnam record, vs. his late brother's, I don't see any "Chickenhawk Meme" developing. Why is that?

The more the merrier, I say. If the looniest of the loons endorse Dean, it'll just make him an easier target in the general election. The left's asinine buffoonery will only make Bush look better to the all-important "undecided" vote.

Oh look, honest-to-G_d sneer quotes! As if anyone could still be undecided at this point.

McGovern in '72!

Next, maybe Carter will endorse Dean or, keeping it in the literary vein (actually, Carter is something of a writer ... well, he's something, anyway), pehaps Baraka and Tom Paulin will come out in support. Has Franken come out for anyone yet? I believe Moore is with Kucinich but he'll be out pretty soon, so I expect Mooer willl support Dean as well. Then Dean can get all of these literary giants together, make bail for his graffiti-artist supporters, Finf out if Wyclef is free and go on a coast to coast spoken-word ego-trip.

Dean: the first choice for Loonie Liberal Lefties who happen to really like guns.

BS"D

As a non-native speaker of English, I have always been fascinated by the way that some words are pronounced with seemingly no relation to their spelling... daughter, through, thorough, borough, etc. But surely one of the most amazing examples is the surname Rall, pronounced "Quisling". Running a close second is "Islam, Religion of Peace", which seems to come out "Bloodthirsty, lying, dune-dwelling, savages.

Perhaps one day, with lots of study, I shall be able to tell just by looking, what esoteric pronunciation should be associated with some of the more obscure words in my (adopted) tongue.

So Rall likes Dean?

Honestly, who didn't see that coming. :-)

Maybe when Dr. Dean cinches the nomination, the national press will actually get around to looking at this.

where Dean's dry, sardonic Long Island wit would devastate the hapless Bush--and charm television viewers.

Please Rall keep misunderestimating.

Truly, that is most odd. :-)

What's this? I can't find the poll they're referring to on CNN orTime.
Bush to beat Democrats, if elections held now

OK, what the heck is with all the cocaine references for President Bush? What memo did I miss on that one? The latest issue of Spin contains a reference to a rant by the Bright Eye's Conor Oberst, in which he referred to our president as "coke-snorting." What, all the nonsensical rumors about Dubya having the lowest IQ of all presidents and caring only about oiiilll weren't enough? Where did this stupid rumor about Dubya using cocaine come from?

And since when does anyone take it seriously when "artists" (with Rall, you have to put the word in quotes) or musicians bitch about alleged drug use by someone else, much less a Republican? What, they're pissed because their drug dealers don't cut them discounts? They're pissed because their anti-capitalist stances don't square with their monumental intake of expensive, hallucinogenic substances? What?

Weird. Very weird. Almost as weird as anyone taking Rall seriously these days.

Yes, my mother tongue (forced upon my ancestors at the point of a sword) is a most atrocious language.

Not that Irish is any better, though. You can have a word that is 15 letters long, and it will be pronounced as exactly TWO syllables.

Interesting trivia about the 1972 election - George McGovern and Lawrence O'Brien, then head of the Democratic Party, were both from branches of the Irish royal family.

Another example of the HOG (Hibernian Occupation Government). ;)

Rall Jumps Aboard Sinking Ship

But Howard Dean's ship isn't sinking. He's in line to win the Democrat nomination. Hopefully GWBush will sink his ship in November 2004.

#10 Kimberly -

Same deal as the "Contra Cocaine" meme that was popular 10-15 years ago. Projection on an utterly massive scale.

Every comment that referred to Rall was "oh god, this is SO wonderful!"

Are they that desperate that even someone as notorious as Rall is ok because of celeb status? Have none of them seen his attacks on 9/11 widows or the column he wrote encouraging the deaths of American soldiers?

I posted a comment there to that affect... heheheh, lets see how long before it's deleted.

Maybe Rall can ink a 'toon about young Howie fiangling his way out of the draft:

OK, what the heck is with all the cocaine references for President Bush?

As best as I can tell, some yardbird trying to get attention claimed to have sold GW coke decades ago. Where the story has gone since I haven't clue, the LLL may be saying "If he did it then, he's doing it now!", but since it's a bunch of bullshit, I ignore it.

#17

Is he related to that loon who claimed in the 80s he sold cocaine to Dan Quayle? Same guy? That one said he was being held in prison because of what he knew.

Or, possibly, because he was a cocaine dealer.

#10 Kimberly

Bush refused to confirm or deny that he used cocaine. Make of it what you will.

"where Dean's dry, sardonic Long Island wit would devastate the hapless Bush--and charm television viewers"

Actually, whaen the printing press was first brought to England 500 years ago, those words rhymed (and from what I've been told, in parts of Yorkshire, they still do). Printers spelt the way they spoke, so numerous different spellings of common words were acceptable and at the time there were NO silent letters.

#18 belize042

I'm sure it's the same loser.

#19 - My guess is that Bush thought the charge was too mind-bogglingly stupid to address, and he didn't want to bring the accuser one more minute of publicity than he had already.

I'm sorry, I just can't get over the fact that people in the entertainment business think they can legitimately complain about alleged drug use by the President. That's like pro wrestlers complaining about a politician using steroids.

I guess what we're supposed to conclude is that, if anyone knows about abuse of a drug that makes you paranoid, nasty, and useless to society, it would be Ted Rall.

Ooh, hey, how'd you like my improvisational spelling of "when"?

Note to self: Preview might be helpful.

With friends like that --Dean won't need too many enemies.

The way the Dem candidates are slinging mud at each other already GWB won't have to say much at all. They are doing a good enough job of tearing each other apart.

if only used occasionaly its not abuse its use just to set the record straight

i thought bush admitted to trying coke in his college days its one of the points i voted for him on now cliton he admitted he never inhaled so i didnt vote for the liar

The Rall thing could be either a problem or an opportunity for Mr. Bush. It could be a problem if Dean's people are smart enough to realize that Rall (funny, I always never pronounced it "Quisling"...I though the proper pronunciation was "Scumbag") could be a great latter-day "Sister Souljah".

Think of it - Dean publicizes this "endorsement", points to instances of Rall's "work" , especially the ranting op-ed pieces in which he publicly supports Saddam Hussein and calls for the killing of American soldiers, then tells his listeners that Rall, Democratic Underground and the rest of the pro-Saddam lunatics can go straight to hell and that he doesn't want or need their "support".

Mind you, he'd still have a lot more to do in order to be truly credible on national-security and foreign policy issues, but publicly and angrily repudiating the "support" of the loony left will make a lot of centrist voters more willing to give him a second look.

Of course, this probably won't happen. I don't think his political instincts are sharp enough, and - more importantly - I think he's surrounded by a lot of true-believing LLL's who genuinely believe the support of Rall, Chomsky, Moore, Streisand, etc. is really a good thing...which means that Karl Rove has been handed yet another basket of manna from heaven.

Ted Rall used to be a guest on Bill Handel's radio show on KFI when the war in Afganistan was going on - Rall was over there as sort of an "embed". He actually sounded a little sane then. What the hell happened?

I have noticed that even Handel doesn't have him on anymore. This guy is a completely deluded jerk.

PLEASSSE let Dean get the nomination - although now it seems to be the dream scenario for GOP - either Dean will get it or Hillary will swoop in on her broom at the convention. Either way - YAY!!!

Maybe that French jack-ass who wrote that God-awful book will endorse him too.

Only after 9/11, however, did Bush begin acting like a dictator: jailing innocent people solely because they were Muslim,

Hey Ted did you notice that when there's a bombing there's a muslim somehow involved?

Kimberly: I picked up on exactly the same thing you did. I've never met a lefty who was anti-coke when it came to their own consumption of nose candy.

Heck, to tell you the truth, I'm rather sorry I didn't meet Duyba back in his hell-raising days. I'll bet he was a lot of fun when he was out there sowing his wild oats. Can you imagine sitting around drinking with Gore? He'd probably become even duller, if that's possible.

The left is so besotted with hatred for Bush that they can't see that part of his attractiveness lies in the fact that he's lived out the Prodigal Son - or the Henry the V- story - the wild young man who repents and becomes a wise and mature leader. Many Americans who, in a less dramatic fashion, did crazy things in their 20's and ended up becoming responsible parents and spouses can relate to Bush's story.

Compare him with that eternal adolescent, Bill Clinton. Since I was never a Clinton fan, I don't quite understand his appeal, but I wonder if it wasn't for exactly the opposite reason - he seemed like the Wonder Boy who could get away with everything, and that's not something most adults can do.

Jimbo (#38),

The Chimp is beating your boy going away, where's that put Dean on the evolutionary ladder?

I'm sure that it was the Metrosexual thing that drew Rall in.

I'll be generous and place him in a small crater at the bttom, next to Icharus.

metrosexual vs. clearing scrub. Yea that it'll win for the dhimmicrats.

OT (kinda): I might have posted this link before but here is another tidbit on Dean's respect for the truth:

[Link: www.weeklystandard.com...]

Betcha as we get closer to the election we are going to see more of these stories.

[Link: www.oregonlive.com...]

Retired Gen. Merrill "Tony" McPeak, the former Air Force chief of staff who endorsed George W. Bush in 2000, has left the Republican fold and is backing Democrat Howard Dean in the 2004 race for president.

...

In addition to McPeak, Dean has been endorsed by retired Marine Gen. Joseph Hoar, who once headed Central Command, which is in charge of all military operations in the Mideast. Klass said that retired Adm. Stansfield Turner, who headed the CIA under President Carter, also supports Dean and that several other retired military officers are informal advisers and might endorse him.

He called Dean brilliant.

Rall, it takes one to know one.

Think about it for a sec.

[Link: blog.deanforamerica.com...]

Is this a troll, or did someone really mean this, because it is quite funny.

Democratic contenders like Dennis Kucinich, Carol Moseley Braun and Al Sharpton have brought common sense, progressive perspectives on the war in Iraq and what we should expect from government into the conversation

"Common sense", Dennis Kucinich, Al Sharpton and Carol Moseley Braun in the same sentence, without a hint of irony, amazing. (Those three are exactly the examples of "what we should expect from government" that convinced me to re-register as a Republican.)

Maybe we should start faxing the worst of Rall to the Dean campaign, just to see if they'd backpeddle. If they do, it might finally shine enough light onto Rall's excrement to get that asshat's columns pulled.

Catbert (#43)

Unbelievable. You should post that on his website. What a slime.

In my years as a consultant, I have found that my clients often knew the truth about their troubles, but wanted someone "official" to help them acknowledge the truth out loud.

Why do I mention this? Because I've noticed something about the way the Democrats are talking, and Rall just repeated it.

He says he supports Dean because he has "the best chance" of beating Bush.

Interestingly, he did not say it was because "he will beat Bush," which is what any reasonably confident partisan would say.

Therefore, I conclude that the Democrats believe, deep in their hearts, that they're probably going to lose to Bush next November.

If they believe that, then they already have lost. They're just looking for the most "honorable" way to do so.

In this case, honor will be served by running to the left and claiming that the result is a stand for "principle."

Dean's selection, if he is indeed nominated by his party, might in part be a way for the Democrats to feel a kind of "moral victory" from a contest they expect to lose.

Democrats Demand Bush Pull TV Ad Attacking Critics of Iraq Policy

The hypocrisy is astounding.

#43 Catbert

Wow. I don't know rather to spread this or let the Dems hoist themselves on their own hubris gilted petards by nominating the 'good doctor' then having these stories pop up like spring flowers all over.

Doesn't Dean's '12 y/o' remind y'all of Gore's story about ...what was it... a sister that died of lung cancer and him vowing to never accepting tobacco money (only to later, in front of tobacco growers, to tell them how much he was one of them)?

Ted Rall. Is he the guy with the Micheal Moore syndrome? Thinks he has what it takes to run the Sophmore class?

The whitewash has begun...

For what it's worth, Blog for America just modified the title of their post from "Rall: Howard Dean for President" to simply, "Howard Dean for President."

Even better, Dean's campaign has entirely shut down comments to the thread and deleted the key graf in Rall's endorsement.

Maybe it's premature to endorse Gov. Dean. But right now, given the information we have available, he's the preferred candidate of us Anybody But Bushies.

So much for open source campaigning and transparency...

Holy Cr@p! He better not open his mouth to a real widow!

This is pretty incredible. They're trying to cover their tracks as we watch. Save copies of this post at the Dean blog, folks -- it's already been radically edited, and it may just disappear.

Jake (#53,54),

Thanks for the update.

Howard "I'm a metrosexual (even though I don't know what that means)" Dean seems to be stuck firmly in backpedaling mode.

The authentic Rall endorsement post is archived at Professor Volokh's:

I posted a longer version of my comment #32 above on the Dean blog's "Ral" thread. So far the thread & post are still there, but I'll bet a triple-shot eggnog latte (that time of year again - here come the annual 15 pounds!!) that both will be gone by tomorrow AM.

Defending GW's record, in the view of the Democratic Party of Daschle and Kennedy, is tantamount to the "supression of dissent". Yes, it is astounding. Mind-boggling, even.

I just posted on another of the Dean blogger threads about the shut down comments and edited title. I also assured the Deanites that the thread has been saved elsewheres and is being watched for the timing of its complete disappearance.

That outta knot the panties of the moderators...

heheheh...

Ted Rall is not talanted? He's the best thing that ever came out of Maximum Rock'n'Roll.

Dean will go down in flames next year.
As surely as the sun rises in the east, the LLL will then scream "disenfranchisement" and try to delegitimize the results. Whether this happens in the primaries or the general election doesn't matter; I think it will be the point at which loony-left self-incitement reaches critical mass, and large-scale violence will result.
Their fantasy ideology has to play out, and the final act of this 40 year drama may be less than a year away.

Because he hasn't fought in a war, but he's against the war. Would that make him a ChickenChicken, or a ChickenDodo?

Rall, Dean's Minister of Love.

Despite everything written about the battle for the Democratic presidential nomination, not enough has been said about the party's deepening anxiety over Howard Dean's candidacy.
Catapulted to front-runner by that party's antiwar, activist base, Mr. Dean's liberal, anti-establishment insurgency has apparently frightened party leaders as no one has — well, since the days of George McGovern, Walter Mondale or Michael Dukakis...

Dean's rep goes South

Elias Israel -

In my years as a consultant, I have found that my clients often knew the truth about their troubles, but wanted someone "official" to help them acknowledge the truth out loud.

Sounds like the people who call Dr. Laura. :)

Craig Mc -

You're right - any use of the word the word "hawk" was inappropriate.

IIRC, "unnamed Democratic candidate" is still leading the Nine Dwarves in the polls...does anyone know if that still holds?

Since the Diebold-Republican-Conspiracy electronic voting machines can't be trusted, let's make every single voter in the country use the Florida Butterfly Ballot.

Boca Raton, FL - HQ, Jews for Buchanan. :)

As Tim Blair says on his blog "Sharpton Looking Better and Better!"

My 15 minutes of fame (infamy) - Al Sharpton and I were classmates in 1967-68.

Interesting how the Deanbots are eager to bury the truth about their rabid supporters.

Question: Would you trust any of the naive nine to buy your groceries for you? I wouldn't.

Howard Dean would spend all the grocery money on prescription drugs and get into a fight with the cashier on the way out.

John Kerry would come back with nothing but baguettes and Heinz ketchup.

Dick Gephardt would refuse to cross the picket line at Safeway.

Wesley Clark would make a big deal about how, as a West Point graduate and Rhodes scholar, only he could buy groceries effectively. But then he would get confused and ask the French and Germans what groceries they would buy. He'd bring back 20 lbs of sausage and stinky, poorly-made cigarettes.

John Edwards would take the grocery money and file a multi-million dollar lawsuit against Safeway, Publix, and Kroger.

Dennis Kucinich would come back with aluminum foil, tofu, and sprouts.

Carole Moseley-Braun would use the grocery money to hire an ethnically-balanced "Department of Home Sustenance," and then say that it is grossly understaffed, and if I really want groceries, I'll have to give her a lot more money.

Al Sharpton would refuse to shop because the store was owned by white interlopers, then incite a crowd to burn the store down. Then, he would spend the grocery money on hair oil.

Joe Lieberman would take your grocery money, spend it sensibly buying an array of Kosher foods, but then cave under pressure from Democratic activists and trade it all in for tofu, hair oil, aluminum foil, Heinz ketchup, prescription drugs, and cigarettes.

I used to work on the editorial staff of UT-Austin's Daily Texan, and I remember that one day, not knowing who Rall was but often seeing his comic strip in the Opinion section, I asked (and wrote on the copy), "Don't we have any other students who could draw something better than this? Surely we do!" I was duly informed that the crappy artwork and text was done not by a student, but by a "famous" nationally-syndicated political cartoonist. Imagine my surprise and disgust. Regarding our own comics, Texan comics are famously weird, but we ran some kind of good ones by students, such as Wheelchair Ninja.

Viking the Kitten:

And Lieberman would say "I hear you, brother", to Sharpton, after the grocery was burned down.

When I lived in Montreal, I had a house in Vermont in the Champlain Islands about sixdteen miles from Burlington. Vermont was a very different place in 1981 when I bought property there from what it became under Clinton pal Kunin and then Dean both of whom were unmitigated disasters for the tough it out Yankeeism which used to be the state's hallmark. Dean as lieutenant-governor became governor after the sudden death of Richard Snelling whom grateful Vermonters had elected in a landslide after too much Kunin. Dean would not have been elected had not Richard Snelling's wife Barbara who was the Republican candidate in the next election suffered a stroke during the campaign. As governor, Howard Dean reversed, in a narrow way and to the benefit of Dean family forest holdings in the northeast part of the state, legislation designed to protect exploitation of natural resources. He also reversed himself on taking trouble makers out of the school system and isolating them in special units after his ten year old son complained about the disruptives at his school. This is the same young man, now 18, who was charged with b and e last summer and has anyone else noticed that while the press had a field day when the Bush twins used fake ID in bars, nary a squeak is heard about the Dean son charged with a real criminal offence. Howard Dean is quite, quite creepy and Republicans in the US should all fervently hope that he gets the Democratic nomination because he has a very short fuse and will blow it very early on in the campaign.

It's a little queasy that the most-of-the-time-sane-but-completely-blinkered-on- gay-rights-issues Andrew Sullivan seems to be saying he could support Dean if Dean had a 'Sistuh Souljah' moment with the anti-war (anti-American) left. 1. Dean signed the Civil Unions law in the dead of night, mainly because the courts gave him no real choice, but Sullivan gives Dean the credit for it. 2. Even if Dean does renounce the anti-war (anti-American) left after his coronation, what will it prove beyond his willingness to kow-tow to any group he thinks will enhance his personal standing? 3. The Fiscal conservative rap is entirely belied by his proposal to foist a new health care entitlement on the public. If you oppose the fiscal irresponsibility of the prescription drug bill, how can anyone give props to Dean as a fiscal conservative when he's proposing something much, much more massive?

But of course, I only hate Dean because I'm a mindless, flyover-country, Republican racist who can't think for himself. It couldn't possibly be because I think his policies are wrong and I distrust his character.

Re: #71, Trumanite, wouldn't Rall be better utilized as Dean's Minister of Truth, given the level of veracity in his scribblings?

LMAO! I saved the Rall endorsement page from Dean's site and will post it tonight and send a copy to The Memory Hole.

Also, I secured an "advance copy" of Ted Rall's Jan. 2005 editorial - calling for armed resistance to Bush here in the U.S.

Re: #75, Viking the Kitten, LMAO on that one!

Dean as lieutenant-governor became governor after the sudden death of Richard Snelling whom grateful Vermonters had elected in a landslide after too much Kunin. Dean would not have been elected had not Richard Snelling's wife Barbara who was the Republican candidate in the next election suffered a stroke during the campaign.

Because he hasn't fought in a war, but he's against the war. Would that make him a ChickenChicken, or a ChickenDodo?

IIRC, he did advocate sending the Marines to Liberia. Don't expect DhimmicraticUnderground to raise the same charge against him, though.

A little something to heave back at the Deanbots when they bring up that urban legend about W blowing off his National Guard duty.

Over the weekend the New York Times picked up the story of Dean's Vietnam-era draft deferment. While in high school Dean had been diagnosed as suffering from spondylolysis, "a low-back pain that sometimes radiates into the legs," and as a result the Selective Service classified him as 1-Y, "qualified for military service only in case of extreme national emergency."

In the 10 months after his graduation from Yale, time he might otherwise have spent in uniform, Dr. Dean lived the life of a ski bum in Aspen, Colo. His back condition did not affect his skiing the way the rigors of military service would have, he said, nor did it prevent him from taking odd jobs like pouring concrete in the warm months and washing dishes when it got cold.

McPeak? Don't make me laugh. I work at a U.S. Air Force base (Charles can attest to this from his referrer logs -- I always munge my address when posting publicly). McPeak was never popular with the troops, and even less so when he changed the traditional AF insignia to rank stripes on the coat sleeves. Everybody had to go and get new uniforms (and remember, officers buy theirs) just to look exactly like... airline pilots. They hated that!
McPeak's new insignia went out the window practically the second he retired, as I recall. Air Force members, please feel free to check me on this -- being "contractor scum", I've never had the privilege of wearing this country's uniform.

Viking the Kitten (#75),

That's the funnies thing I read in a while. And I'm sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

I think we should try to placate the mindless lefty kids with a radical "Rock the Vote" Cage match for President.

Every month Bush would take on a new opponent in their best area.

He could challenge Dennis Kucinich to conspiracy theory revelation. Dennis don’t know dick but bout Satellite control; the Bushes: The Rothschild’s, al Fizel, the Trilateral Commission, The Bitbiedleberg Connection.! And he’s got the pictures to prove it.
Bush wins going away.

He could challenge Kerry to actually landing fighter jets, of course Kerry would have to bow out since no helmet was big enough.
Bush by default.

Carole Moseley-Braun: Mud wresting.
Could go either way.

Joe Leiberman: Best impersonation of someone giving a eulogy will passing a peach pit.
Bush is busy overseeing the invasion of Syria, Joe competes on national TV anyway.

Al Sharpton: Looking Good. After strutting and posing in three different outfits, George and Al decide to go out on the town, hit some Jazz clubs and relive their wild youth.
Both trade e-mail addresses and decide they’ll get together again.

Dick Gephardt

Wesley Clark would challenge Bush to a treatise on military strategy, and Bush would win with a pre-emptive rules negotiation that would state that’s ‘…and only your personal military experience from the last 18 months can be presented…”, while Wes’ was negotiating with Hans Blix to vet the contract for errors. Hans said there were no errors, and then proceeded to blame Kofi Anna, the Norwegians and not enough funding.
Wesley Cheers Bushes victory and claims “He’s the right man for the job.”

John Edwards sells property he didn’t know he had in Saudi Arabia for a 23 million dollar profit, Denounces Bush, and condemns him for attempting to take any action against him.
The FBI release Edwards later and he spends the rest of his life saying “I was a Candidate for President of the United States of America” and people just look at him and think “nutcase”

Howard Dean. Well, read this bit of rewriting of the Declaration of Independence

by the People of Dean for America

WHEN IN THE Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation.

Their philosophy and tactics are horrible.

Shame on them.
