I heard that. I'd like to shove him into a muddy 4 foot deep footer and make him start laying 10 or 12 inch heavyweight block until his styrofoam spine snaps.

But that would deny me the pleasure later of pushing him off of the scaffold when it's about four bucks high.

Oh yes Howard, sure worked in the salt mines growing up on Park Avenue and The Hamptons.

Howard was born in New York, New York to Andree Dean, art appraiser, and Howard Brush Dean, Jr. (deceased), a former corporate executive. As a child of a wealthy and prominent New York family, he spent much of his time growing up in The Hamptons. Upon graduating from St. George's School, an exclusive prep school outside Newport, Rhode Island, Dean enrolled at Yale University,

Apply liberally on Howard Dean, he will soon shrink and disappear.

"Well, Republicans, I guess, can do that, because a lot of them have never made an honest living in their lives," Mr. Dean said.

This is tailor made, thank you DNC, terrific ad- for Republican candidates on all levels, in every state of the union.
I wonder if the RNC has the spine to use it.

This pampered, ivory tower jerk couldn't live through one of our days. I get up at 4 a.m., take care of my grandchildren so my 22 yr old son can drive an hour away to his hard labor in a refinery. Have to get the kids up, take my husband to catch his 6a.m. ride out of town for his job laying cement foundations (not a fun job here in the deep south), and then try to run my own business and work while I watch my grandkids 16 hours a day so they don't have to go into daycare.

I occasionally also have to do some work and errands for my parents, who are self employed. I take the kids with me.

Did I mention? WE ARE ALL REPUBLICANS!!!

Howard Dean is doing just what the Clintons wanted him to do,make ludicrous,nutball,malicious,hateful comments.
At some point he will be Hillarys "Sister Solja" moment.
Can`t everyone hear the press and others fawning how civil and non partisan she is when she starts turning him on a spit.

I hear you. Both my dad and my FIL were farmers. From spring through fall they worked from dawn till dark. In winter, FIL drove the school bus and had other odd jobs as needed. There were darned few vacations ever...you can't go off and leave a herd of livestock.

But keep on talkin' Howie. You're tickin' people off but good!

You said it Seeker. I'm with you! I work with a nice young man with two daughters. He served his country and got out, married a nice lady but realized he was going nowhere fast so he went to college and got his engineering degree WHILE still working FULL TIME. He voted BUSH. He's another one of those non-working REPUBS apparently. Don't let it rile you; how many Pubs do you know on welfare - probably NONE!!!!! Honestly, I'd love for them to take a survey sometime of all welfare people and all the druggies and people who only work like 20 hours a week cuz they're too lazy to work 40 and I bet you they are DEMS!!!!! Prime example is my ex-sister-in-law - big, fat, lazy slob. Never worked until just this past year - works only 20 hours a week - but whines about the rich and all they have. GET A JOB LADY!!!!! Oh, but she has vanity plates (2 sets), satellite dish, huge screen TV and so on....

Dean has never met a payroll or put his money into a venture- if he ever does he will learn what work is all about.

A Democrat called Rush today to say he had gone to see Deans speech. He said he was angry about the "honest days work" remark because his Dad was a lifelong Republican and worked his butt off. He called to the DNC to complain and ask if this was all they could do to sway the opinion of the voters and he didn't like it. They told him Dean was referring to the Republican leadership, to which the caller said that was patently false. They then told him not to worry because Republicans regularly bash Democrats too.

Rush told the guy the Democrats think criticizing them or telling the truth about their lies is a vicious attack.

Exactly.

You're not a murderer, Southerners are not driving pickup trucks with a black man strung up to their bumper, and the majority that vote for Republicans are neither independently wealthy nor so dumb they cannot vote what is in their best moral, economic and defensive interests.

Keep it up Howard. You are ceasing to be amusing. You are now entering Michael Moore territory and while Michael was beloved by your loons, the same middle class that breaks their back to keep this country clothed, sheltered and entertained gave you a whipping to remember election day as result.

When he attacks politicians its one thing, but to denigrate us hard working salt of the earth types, he is asking for an earful. Does this idiot really think that republicans are all white collar professionals?, if he does than he is even more clueless than I could imagine.

Amen.

And most of those who are fortunate enough to "not work" now, worked very very hard to get to that position.

Young people like you give me hope for the future of America.

You won't be working for minimum wage for too long. You're too intelligent.

Sounds like good honest hard working men to me!

I wonder if Howard has ever met anyone outside of a campaign that had a callous that wasn't the result of a day playing tennis at the club?

Could Dr. Dean name me one Kennedy who made an "honest living"? Just one?

Or do trust funds qualify for "honest living" with this asshole?

Yes, that would be the exact time of honorable young man Howie doesn't believe deserve respect.

I'll tell you this. My father was out of a job for awhile when I was younger. He hated collecting unemployment. As soon as he could he got a job where one was available. He didn't sit around on his butt collecting checks from the government because he could nor wait for the 'perfect' job to come up. He got a job that Howie wouldn't respect and fed his family because his pride demanded no less. THAT is the type of man I respect, not someone that sits in a cushy job taking pot shots at my father.

Your father sounds like a very good man. Howie is a wimp.
