Come on, you are not new to politics. Being on the right or left of an issue, a hawk or a dove, is merely a term to designate how a candidate is posturing. Dean will never say "I am getting to the Right of Bush on Israel;" that is simply not how politics works as if I needed to tell you.


There are numerous articles from anti-war conservatives and libertarians on the issue:

THE DEAN DECEPTION
The lying S.O.B.

Matt Baganier:
Candidate Dean Is a Warmonger
And other reasons to support his campaign

Anthony Gankarski:
A Tale of Two Democrats
Dean Knows the Road to the Presidency Runs Through AIPAC HQ

As well as articles in leftwing journals:

But let me ask, is it your basic contention that Dean is not trying to get to the Right of Bush on Israel? Then why did you post this article?

What are you talking about? You are the one who stated, “I wonder why he thinks he can get to the Right of Bush on this issue?” Of course he doesn’t think that. He doesn't want to do that. He will never state that. He doesn’t even want that idea to cross anybody's mind. I don’t even know why you made the ludicrous claim in the first place.

I thought it was funny and nonsensical. That's why I added my sarcastic comments to the title.

The very idea that Dean is a closet-moderate was silly enough to merit posting.

Plus, linking a Justin Raimondo article to prove your point is a bit counterproductive, unless you're dealing with somebody who shares his conviction that Mossad orchestrated the events of 911.
