What's Up With Howard Dean?

Here's the exchange from Dean's appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night.

STEWART: "How long in your mind do you feel it's gonna be before power corrupts you absolutely?"

DEAN: "Well, you know...."

STEWART: "The last guys did it in three and a half days, what are you guys aiming for?"

DEAN: "Longer than that."

DEAN: "I know half the audience wants us to impeach the President and all that kind of stuff but we're not gonna do that - we're not gonna do that."

And this:

A member of SFIC was on a conf. call around the country today – Dems canvass voters day. She asked to speak with Howard Dean & brought up impeachment. This was his answer, “We don’t play gotcha politics.”

54% in fact.

or else.

Bill is saying now that the country doesn't WANT accountability for Bush and Cheney.

>>>>>>>
Any shot at the current president is an automatic applause line with a Democratic audience. But rather than taking the easy ovation, Clinton gently deflected an audience member's suggestion that President Bush be included in his list of global problems.

"Yeah, Bush and Cheney," he said. "I could sit here all night and make you laugh and cry and stand up and cheer talking about the president and the vice president. But the country is over that. Let's get the show on the road again."

Moving past serious illegal operations of Bush1 helped BushInc to grow stronger throughout the 90s while left unchecked by any oversight and led us straight to Bush2.

simple as that.

they crushed/screwed him in the primary and he submitted like another lil cogg...

figures.

O'DONNELL: If Democrats win in the midterm elections in November, will the Democrats in Congress move to impeach this president?

DEAN: I doubt it. It's possible. I mean, no doubt, there will be investigations because there's been so much corruption in the White House and the vice president's office, even the Republican Senate president is under investigation for insider trading. The Republican House leader had to resign. The new Republican House leader just killed all the ethics legislation.

It's pretty much of a culture of corruption on the Republican side in Washington now, and I think you're certainly going to see some investigations.

The Democrats believe that we need to do something about jobs, we need to fix our security or especially our port security. We want honesty and openness back in our government, so we want to have real ethics reform. That's a big list of important things.

You know, unless there's a terrible smoking gun, I think impeachment is going to come pretty low on the list, because we have got to really turn this country around and that is a big job.

ANYTHING substantial done ~ they continually overestimate the other side, thinking they're interested in working for the people.

That site has spun off a lot of bitter messages that landed in the DU forum(s).

our constitution. It's why I have little hope for the future. I'm incapable of being fooled anymore though. I'm also incapable of trust. I also don't believe in anything.

But I agree about the gotcha comment.
