Give this man a party chairmanship!

Dean the Scream is as loose-lipped as ever:
"The truth is the president of the United States used the same device that Slobodan Milosevic used in Serbia. When you appeal to homophobia, when you appeal to sexism, when you appeal to racism, that is extraordinarily damaging to the country," Dean charged. "I know George Bush. I served with him for six years [as a fellow governor]. He's not a homophobe. He's not a racist. He's not a sexist. In some ways, what he did was worse ... because he knew better."
Hmmm.... Howard Dean compares President Bush to a man on trial for horrendous war crimes, then attempts soften the comparison by saying "Bush really doesn't mean it."
I guess every person who even breathes a question about same-sex marriage is a homophobe? And what appeals to sexism and racism in the Bush/Cheney campaign? Or is walking while being Republican reason enough for those charges?
Hey, Dems, please give Dean the chairmanship. It will be worth some extra Republican seats in 2006!

Republicans! Let's not blow this again! Everyone repeat after me:
HOWARD DEAN OFFERS INTERESTING INSIGHTS INTO THE AMERICAN POLITICAL SCENE AND HAS A PROGRESSIVE VIEW OF WHERE TO TAKE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THAT SIMPLY MUST BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.
IF THERE IS ONE MAN IN AMERICA THAT CAN OFFER A COMPELLING CASE FOR MAINSTREAM DEMOCRATIC VALUES, ENERGIZE MODERATE VOTERS AND LEAD THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY BACK TO PROMINENCE, IT IS PROBABLY HOWARD DEAN.
