Just got an e-mail from the DNC, along with thousands of others I'm sure, but for those of you whose copy is buried under a pile on an SMTP server someplace, here's the link: http://www.democrats.org/...
Gov. Dean is taking FULL advantage of the Libby conviction to tie a big scarlet ribbon around the administration.
Included among the gems in Dean's video message is a very strong statement that its time to bring the Iraq war (which he'd say occupation) to an end.
He also hammers Bush & co. over reduced budgets for the veteran's admin and of course the intelligence manipulation.
This is what we need lots more of - watch & cheer!
some quotes below the fold:
Like the Nixon Administration, George Bush's White House has become obsessed with their critics rather than with the problems facing our country.
A former senior aid to the Vice President is now a convicted felon.
If there is one thing this Administration likes to do, it's avoid consequences.
Not only did the Administration fail to prepare a stratety to win the war in Iraq, it failed to prepare for the war's consequences for our soldiers and they have left our troops at home without the support they deserve.
This is this President's failed legacy, it was his choice to cut the Veterans Administration budget, it was his choice to mislead America with cooked intelligence about Iraq, it was his choice to provide inadequate armor for our troops, it was his choice to play politics rather than fix problems. It will also be his choice if he decides to pardon Scooter Libby [do I detect a bit of a threat there?]
The kicker:
It's time to bring this war to an end.
Yes! Say Amen, Gov. Dean!
