Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean called for the removal of Vice President Dick Cheney if he authorized his chief of staff to leak classified material or the identity of CIA employee Valerie Plame.

Why are these things newsworthy?

I personally call for Screamin' Dean to resign.

Will that make the papers?

Yes, definitely. Dean hasn't got a hair if he doesn't stand up to this challenge!

"Scooter Libby testified to the grand jury that his superior ordered him to, or suggested that he leak the information to the press in order to discredit one of their political opponents,"

Is this true or is Dean BSing?

I certainly hope the VP's press office calls the media to set the story straight. Libby's attorney has vehemently denied the one web story that started this whole mess and has said that Libby did not testify that Cheney told him to out Plame.

Algore has been a treasonous scumbag at least since 1992.
