2004 Democrat Presidential Candidate Howard Dean Not Sure Iraqis Better off Without Saddam Hussein

CNN Wolf Blitzer Reports Transcript ^ | April 24, 2003 | Wolf Blitzer

[ewing]

Wolf Blitzed: But aren't the people of Iraq so much better off now with Saddam Hussein on their back?

Dean: We don't know that yet. We don't know that yet Wolf.

We still have a country whose city is mostly without electricity.

We have tumultous occasions in the south where there is no clear governance.

We have a major city without clear goverance. We don't know yet, and until we do..

Wolf Blitzer interrupts-..(obviously incredulous even for a liberal) You think it is possible--excuse me for interrupting-- that whatever emerges in Iraq could be better than what they have had for decades under Saddam Hussein?

[ewing]

Is this guy on drugs?

[Russell Scott]

No, just insane.

[Mr. Mojo]

Many Dems think it, but Dean is insane enough to actually say it.

[ewing]

I will accept that explanation.

[ewing]

At least Dean is willing to prove how nutty he really is..

[Pharlap]

Moral equivalency: temporary loss of electricity and some looting = over a million tortured, maimed and murdered. The moral bankruptcy of the left is a wonder to behold.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Dean needs to be dangled above an industrial shredder.

2004 Democrat Presidential Candidate Howard Dean Not Sure Iraqis Better off Without Saddam Hussein

Well, the USA is much better WITHOUT Dean as President!!!

[goldstategop]

Howard Dean is the Jimmy Cartuh of 2004. He's too indecisive to make up his mind about what's happened in Iraq. Are you kidding?? This doofus will NEVER be President.

[Purdue Pete]

I would like to see Mr. Dean live under the terror that Saddam meted out, just long enough for him to soil every pair of undershorts he owns. Given his penchant for spouting off his mouth, he probably wouldn't have the opportunity to soil very many.

We would then see which is more important to him, a temporary loss of water and power, or a permanent loss of tongue, eyes, limb or life. He is so totally disgusting!

[ClearCase_guy]

Could be an interesting GOP TV commercial: show picture after picture of the evidence of Saddam's torture state. Show mutilated men and women. Show dead children lying in the street. Then close with Dean saying Iraq is no better off today than they were under Saddam.

On second thought, you couldn't make that commercial, because US TV stations would not be allowed to show the horrific photos that document what Saddam did to his victims.

[MEG33]

We need order.Saddam gave us order.

[George W. Bush]

Saying this kind of stuff is Dean's only hope. He has to stay fully connected to the bitter anti-war segment of the party. And they are the activists who vote and influence other primary voters out of all proportion to their numbers.

Dean is playing the only hand he has. Sounds crazy but these are Democrats after all.

[Semper Paratus]

"He made the camels run on time"

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

This doofus will NEVER be President.

Where are the comparisons with Dan Quayle ?

Dean makes Quayle look like a rocket scentist !

[Diogenesis]

---

Democrats absolutely positively HATE Freed Iraqis who LOVE AMERICANS WHO FREED THEM.

[vigilo]

Leftist can't deal with reality. It's that simple. They'd rather live in the darkness than come to the light because the light exposes them for the wicked and evil creatures that they are.

[sport]

No, he is not on drugs, he is naturally demented.

That is the current democrat thought process. The democrats will do to us [particularly gun owners and Christians]what Saddam Hussine did to the average Iraqui citizen just as soon as they are able.

They will put us back under the world courta/k/a, the international court. They will also bring every Soldier, Sailor, Airman and woman, and Marine who participated in liberating Iraq before the world court on charges.

Folks, keep in mind that the democrat politicans are totally evil and demented.

[PeterPrinciple]

This doofus will NEVER be President.


Watch what you say.........remember the last time.

[Jay D. Dyson]

ROTFLMCAO! Holy crow, with Dems like this running for the White House, Bush will never need to spend a dime campaigning and will end up winning by a landslide! LOL!

This Dean character is depriving some village of its idiot.
