Reality Checks for the Left on Blacks and Abortion

Reality Checks for the Left on Blacks and Abortion

You may remember Screamin’ Howie Dean.

He’s the doctor-turned-pol who made a fool of himself when he lost the 2004 Democrat Iowa caucuses to two other schleps, John Kerry and John Edwards, then bellowed his “Dean Scream” which effectively ended his campaign for the presidency. Rewarded for bailing out with the chairmanship of the Democrat National Committee, during his 4-year tenure in that job he became so embarrassing to the Dems that he was virtually ignored and was then snubbed by the Obama administration.

Undismayed, Ol’ Howie has been keeping busy the last few years by making speeches hither, thither, and yon on a variety of topics including one to the Christian Science Monitor last week in which he betrayed both his ingrained ignorance and his latent racism.

Echoing the Dem mantra, Dean called the Tea Party the “last gasp” of a 55-year-old generation, a gasping movement in which Tea Partiers are “entirely over 55 and white.” He elaborated on his race card/hate card by adding that they have “trouble with diversity, and the new generation doesn’t. As I am fond of telling college audiences, you all have friends of different races, different religions and different sexual orientations and you all date each other. That’s not how I grew up and not how the Tea Party grew up.”

All I know about how Dean grew up is that he did it as a wealthy East Hamptonite who attended exclusive schools. The liberal guilt factor over that heady upbringing may have resulted in his mind-numbing liberalism.

In any event, black conservatives gave Howie his comeuppance over his Tea Party insults. Project 21, the National Leadership Network of Black Conservatives, called them a “simplistic interpretation” which opens “the new year on a hateful note by playing the race card against ‘tea party’ supporters of limited government.”

“Simplistic” has long been a Howard Dean trademark but Howie outdid himself this time. . .

Tidbits: Howie, Cindy, Teddy, and Barry

Tidbits: Howie, Cindy, Teddy, and Barry

Screamin’ Howie Dean Finally Makes Some Sense: With nothing to lose, DNC Chairman Dr. Howard Dean went down a road Democratic officeholders fear to tread. Marginalized in his position by the Obama administration, he dared expose one of the principal flaws in Obamacare: the absence of any move toward tort reform. He further dared to define the reason–fear of the Trial Lawyers Association, which feeds more money into Democratic Party coffers than any other single group: http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/53126.

One should not bite the hand that fees one so, should Obamacare become law, even the most skilled and dilligent doctors will still order test after test, prescribe med after med, lest a rapacious lawyer, like former Senator John Edwards, descend on them.

Silly Cindy Sheehan Re-directs Fire: Poor Cindy. She gained widespread notoriety by sensationalizing the death of her son, Casey, in Iraq, with Camp Casey squatting outside George W. Bush’s Crawford, Texas compound. Now she has a new enemy, Barack Obama. Complaining that the new president isn’t much different from the old with his Iraq and Afghanistan policies, Sheehan has laid siege to Martha’s Vineyard where the Obama family is vacationing: http://bit.ly/ONmQy.

She’s discovered that the more things change, the more they remain the same but that life as a tool of the left in her capacity of anti-war activist just ain’t the same since the media is much more forgiving when it comes to a president they idolize as opposed to one they loathed.

Dying Teddy Kennedy Got Religion: The “Liberal Lion” sent a secret note to Pope Benedict XVI last month via delivery-boy extraordinaire, Barack Obama. . .
