Defeat corrupt corporate $ and give Dean a B-day gift at the same time.
Donate to the DNC today in honor of Howard Dean's birthday.

https://www.democrats.org/page/contribute /

I'm overjoyed that Dr.Howard Dean was born on this day 57 years ago!

Thanks to Howard Dean, the DNC is relying less and less on the big corporate money that has corrupted the Democratic process in this country. And he is breaking fundraising records while doing it!

You didn't really believe the Republican lies, did you?

He may not be able to personally read a card that you send, but he'll definitely be able to put a few "happy birthday bucks" to good use.

8. Thank you, zidzi, for the recommendation!
The money does indeed go for great works. Salvaging the Democratic Party, rebuilding it from the ground up, and rescuing it from the dictates and "favors' that come with corporate cash!

4. Been thinking about this all day
since I heard on NPR that it was the good doctor's birthday.
Great idea. . . I donated and hope others will do the same.

20. Certainly --most certainly --you know by now about my
attitude toward shame.

I'm hanging out with Ken Mehlman just to make Dean ragingly jealous.

Thank you for the R, Wb. :beer:

25. If you believe in the DNC & Dean, and have $20 to spare
each month, there is no reason to deny yourself this opportunity!

26. Kurovski, because YOU asked I will give....$$$'s...
...and I'll tell him to clean out the dead wood and get some more shit kickers in there like Mr. Dean himself.

Greatest line in years: "I'm here representing the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party." Damn right he got a standing for that one...in CA no less.

Edited on Thu Nov-17-05 11:13 PM by Kurovski
I even got to hear him say it in person, and hope to again.

Edit: Warning, profanity countdown.

Tell the DNC we want "shit-kickers" not "shit-lickers"
That's the South Chicago way. (sans the corruption, please.)

31. Howard Dean has smarts, passion and integrity
I've always found him to be a very refreshing type of politician.....such a major contrast to those in "power" now.
