Man, am I steamed right now! I just watched Gep with Wolf Blitzer, or is that Blitz Wurlitzer? Lately, I have cut Gep lots of slack, probably cause I have a soft spot for the trench work he has always done for unions. Walter Reuther was a god in the house I was raised in, and nothing has changed my mind since. I even have touted Gep as VP, and would consider him for top spot, were it not for the Iraq thing.
He just lost me. Whitey told Wolf that "Howard Dean is with Bush on medicare." The scope of this lie is astounding. He didn't even have the decency to twitch as it rolled off his lips, it was almost a sociopathic moment. That's it, Whitey. I haven't heard anybody talk about your tax cut vote with REAGAN, or vote against minimum wage raise with REAGAN, and your voting for this canard of "partial birth abortion BAN" which the neocons are touting on Fox already as the first step to TOTAL abortion ban, and what health care legislation did you ever get through when you were house leader? Never mind that the fact the proposal you run on is more expensive than Dean's, because it subsidises big business, and small business that can't provide a plan right now gets NOTHING under yours. And it's not like you'd ever get it passed anyway, you know it, it just sounds good. Dean tried for the universal program and got shut out, like you did with Hillary. You quit, he found another way that was politically doable, and gave drug care for low income seniors as well.
A lie is a lie. What Bush is doing in Iraq(which you voted for, and still support funding) was based on a lie more serious than the one you are spinning. However, if you lie about Dean on medicare for crass political gain, I guess that means there may be mendacity in your description of your war vote. I actually thought you believed it was the right thing to do. I now suspect, that just like Kerry, you put one hand over your ass to cover it, and the other in the air to gauge the breeze. Too bad you didn't just ask yourself, what is the right thing to do, like Byrd, Kennedy, and Graham.
Time for you to go.
Maybe you can get a spot on the boards of Cargill or Archer Daniels. I've heard they have been your friends, money wise. It doesn't seem to mesh with the family farm spiel you spin. Jimmy Hoffa Jr can always use a labor lawyer, he stopped flirting with Bush last year. What a loser. I swear, I prefer Lieberman to you now, at least he is honest enough that he takes a position. I may disagree with him, and I usually do, but unlike you, he has a spine.
