Senator Durbin is scheduled to join Democratic chairman Howard Dean at a big fundraiser at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C., this Tuesday.Dean is most famous for a scream, but here's a more recent (and spellable) quote - from earlier this month:
Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean, unapologetic in the face of recent criticism that he has been too tough on his political opposition, said in San Francisco this week that Republicans are "a pretty monolithic party. They all behave the same. They all look the same. It's pretty much a white Christian party."Ironically delivered the same week Senate Democrats ended their filibuster and "confirmed California judge Janice Rogers Brown for the federal appeals court, ending a two-year battle filled with accusations of racism and sexism".
Al Jazeera was one of the few news organizations to report Durbin's recent comments:
"If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime - Pol Pot or others - that had no concern for human beings."A reasonable observer might ask why would these guys be chosen - or perhaps what will their focus be at the fundraiser?
Patrick Ruffini got the memo from the DNC
With your support, we will send a message to the extreme Republican leadership that the Democratic Party will reach out to all Americans with our positive agenda for the future and we will stand and fight the propaganda and destructive policies of the Republican Party.And of course, make a few bucks, too. Because, who wouldn't pay to see that?
