The Dean is a Radical Leftist Red Herring is In Full Swing

[Stevendsmith]

The media echo chamber is now chanting the Dean is a radical leftist crap at full volume. Utter nonsense! Dean supporters need to denounce this spin loudly and often. Opposing a bogus war does not make one a radical left winger. Dean, a moderate liberal, has been calling bullshit on the Iraq adventure from the beginning. And events have shown that he was dead on the money.

It's disgusting to see how the GOP-spoon-fed media presents the Dean is a radical lie as an accepted truth and then moves on from that point of departure:

"Howard Dean, the candidate of the radical anti-war far left, blah, blah, blah..."

The most troubling aspect of this hoax is that it will likely be persuasive. As Chomsky asserts, if you repeat lies loud and often enough, they become true. This has been the MO of the Bush administration from day one.
