58. Karl, while I HATED Dean invoking the confederate flag to make his point
It is very CLEAR he did NOT mean that but that his comments could LEAVE people believing he meant that which is why I felt he was wrong to do so since that flag is a PAINFUL suggestion of such.
What HE meant is that BOTH parties suffer because of CLASS not race which is a race/class issue and why we must be ever vigilant to distinguish RACE issues from RACISM issues. What Dean DID was muddy the distinctions using the confederate flag as an example.
I think he sees that. I think he was MADE to see that by some of his advocates, and I think THAT is why he apologized.
