"Lies and character assination is all they have. The more the Left mentions me in this context, the better I like it."

It's pretty sad that a major political party actually takes seriously the likes of Dean and Sharpton...to name a couple.

I wonder how loing it will be before RS (the one holdonnow calls "Rat Sh*t") shows up in this thread. LOL

'..Dean yesterday defended his public mocking of..Rush Limbaugh's battle against addiction to painkillers, saying, "It is galling to be lectured to about moral values by folks who have their own problems.

"Hypocrisy is a value that I think has been embraced by the Republican Party," Mr. Dean told NBC's "Meet the Press" yesterday. "We get lectured by people all day long about moral values by people who have their own moral shortcomings."

Mr. Dean, a doctor, was unapologetic about his parody, even when "Meet the Press" host Tim Russert asked whether it is "appropriate for a physician to mock somebody who has gone into therapy and the abuse for drug addiction?"

"Rush Limbaugh has made a career of belittling other people and making jokes about President Clinton, about Mrs. Clinton and others," Mr. Dean said. "I don't think he's in any position to do that.'

HEY HOWARD! RUSH IS IN A POSITION TO DO THAT - but I'm guessing that isn't what the people who put you in YOUR position expect from you.

There is something very very wrong with Dean.

Even if mentioned in passing, I think Rush mentioning Dean's past drinking habits is unfortunate. We gripe when the left pokes at Bush's history of drinking -- why should we bring up Dean's?

Would just love to have J. Edgar Hoover's files. A lot more dirt would be coming out.

"Dean also claimed that the best DemocRATS are Socialists"

The truth comes out, but we already knew this didn't we?

"Howard Dean admitted to being a binge drinker in his earlier days"

He has apparently done some serious brain damage too. On Meet the Press yesterday, when the subject of abortion came up, he stated, "I would never have one."

Actually, Rush is kind of stating the obvious, given Governor Dean's looney bin performance on Meet the Press and his recent public speeches. That's what you get when Dean is pretty much beholden to the Michael Moore/MoveOn.org wing of the Democratic Party.

Keith Thompson's article in the San Francisco Chronicle:

Leaving the left

I can no longer abide the simpering voices of self-styled progressives -- people who once championed solidarity

Nightfall, Jan. 30. Eight-million Iraqi voters have finished risking their lives to endorse freedom and defy fascism. Three things happen in rapid succession. The right cheers. The left demurs. I walk away from a long-term intimate relationship. I'm separating not from a person but a cause: the political philosophy that for more than three decades has shaped my character and consciousness, my sense of self and community, even my sense of cosmos.

I'm leaving the left -- more precisely, the American cultural left and what it has become during our time together.

I choose this day for my departure because I can no longer abide the simpering voices of self-styled progressives -- people who once championed solidarity with oppressed populations everywhere -- reciting all the ways Iraq's democratic experiment might yet implode.

To: anyone; All

If anyone who has been listening to Rush today could post the name of the author/article that he read about "only Republicans are liars" I would very much appreciate it.

I saw it posted here yesterday but neglected to save it--on hearing Rush's reading, I realized how valuable it will be in the future with several serious and one left-leaning Big Lib sisters of mine.

Thank you in advance; I may not be here to do so today if someone is kind enough to post it for me now.

I'd guess Harvey Wallbangers. The poor dope took the name of his cocktail literally. What followed was a sordid story of lying, screaming and yelling out state names for no apparent reason. STOP THE MADNESS!

Rush should be more careful about the things he says. It's not as if he never had a drug problem.

That could explain a lot... Is there such a thing as late-onset, retroactive Fetal Alcohol Syndrome?

What's going on with the last caller? Who's Burkett (Dem? Rep?) and what-in-the-world is he talking about with buried skeletons?

Actually Rush and Dizzy Dean have something in common. The more they both talk, the better it is for Conservatives.
