The Democrats Want Dean To Shut Up

North Dakota Rep. Earl Pomeroy said that Dean is overstepping his bounds and that he should not be giving up on the war effort. There are good and bad in every party and not all liberals are bad people. The ones who do not have extreme views are easy to get along with and they sometimes even make sense. Pomeroy is, at least in this instance, one such person. He said:
“My words to Howard Dean are simple – shut up,” Pomeroy told WDAY Radio in North Dakota on Thursday.
Pomeroy later told the Associated Press that he is tired “of the overblown rhetoric on both sides.”
“We have young men and women with their lives on the line,” he added. “The debate has fallen far short of what they deserve.”
Pomeroy said Dean wasn’t representing Democrats like him when he discussed the war.
No, Dean is representing Democrats like Murtha, Kerry, Pelosi, Durban, Reid, and Kennedy. In any event, This guy is right when he says the rhetoric is overblown on both sides and that we should not have these kinds of things going on while we have men and women at war.
He is right. Thank you Representative Pomeroy for saying what should have been said to Dean a long time ago. Of course, he will keep it up and the donks will lose big because of it.

The only good thing is hopefully it will embarass enough of them to start making changes for the good to take that party back to where it was.
Retreat and Defeat
The GOP has a new video on their site called Retreat and Defeat, where they use the Dems words against them. It starts with a statement that Democrats have a plan for iraq retreat and defeat. It then goes to clips of Dean, Boxer, and Kerry beating up …
