You are correct. Newsmax has the article where Dean alludes to his disire to Ban the FNC and all conservative media outlets saying, in effect, anything that gives only one perspective shouldn't be allowed to broadcast.. I guess he has no problem with CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, and all the other leftists media institutions and their blatent bias.

To Dean and the Lefists, we are all equal, but they are more equal than us.

The article was by a Dean lover who knew draft didging won't bother his left wing supporters. the president can't find Sadaam or Osama huh? How immature. Like this arrogant left wing governor of Vermont knows just how to do it. I'll give him two clues: Don't bother to look in the (former) presidential palaces in Iraq, or in (former) Taliban headquarters in Kabul.

This "The President can't find Osama/Saddam" crap makes me laugh. Look how long it took Hillary to find the Rose Law Office billing records, and they were neither moving every few hours or hiding in a lawless mountain area.

The first time I ever saw Howard Dean interviewed, I told Mr. Lucky2 that he's an out and out communist. Every time this idiot opens his mouth he proves me right (and correct as well). If he ever (God forbid) gets elected President, I see the days of Hitler starting here.

On my physical day, there were over seven hundred men. No one brought X-rays nor a note from their Mommy. Of course we were from the unwashed masses so their were no failures. Every man jack passed and went off the next day.

Hell with Dean, what really bothers me is, there is such a place as "Harvard's Kennedy School of Government". Is that an assembly plant turning out little Ted Kennedys and Al Gores. God help us, get the can of raid!!!

To Dean and the Leftists, we aren't even "equal." We're nothing more than ignorant cattle to be brainwashed into believing their lies, or at the least to be so thoroughly intimidated that we dare not speak against them.

And if we can't be brainwashed or bullied, then we're to be ruthlessly and remorselessly crushed and then swept out of their way.

It's not Dubya's job to locate OBL or Dean. That's the job of our armed forces and covert guys. Whenever a Dem makes the point that "Bush hasn't found OBL/Saddam", it should be pointed out that they're really attacking the competency of our armed forces.

This should absolutely enrage minority spokespeople as they are constantly making the claim that rich white boys were given a pass out of the draft while poor black boys served on the front lines.

I like that.

Probably play checkers with shot glasses and the losers do laps.

If he isn't a Communist (which he likely is) Dean is at least a European-style secular socialist, abortionist ghoul.

"..anything that gives only one perspective shouldn't be allowed to broadcast.."

If one simply reports the news - factually and without bias -- is that an unacceptable "perspective"??

Dean has simply revealed the typical Marxist position --- all information to the people must be controlled propaganda.....not information..

Dean will destroy the Democrat Party....and the Nation if elected....

Semper Fi
