Dean equated Cheney with Burr Sunday, BEFORE FUDDGATE!

[carpetbagger]

The man's a visionary. Of course, Whittington's no Hamilton, but close enough.

[hopeisaplace]

4. That is sooooo funny "fuddgate"

"dat dwedded wabbit"

[lancdem]

13. You're too kind, thank you!

"..Now it turns out that the vice president of the United States may have been responsible for those leaks for political reasons. That's the kind of thing that has not been done to my knowledge since Aaron Burr was Vice Presdent."..Dean

What did Burr do? Don't know my history. Edit to say..I know Burr shot Hamilton but I thought he did something else because I didn't think Dean knew about cheney's shooting Wittington at that juncture.

On the next page Dean makes a Freudian slip and calls cheney "The President"..Bob corrects him :)

15. And then, " That, sir, is an unmitigated fabrication. It's lawyer season"

[Ladyhawk]

17. It's Duck Cheney season! n/t

"President promised two years ago that he would fire the leaker. He hasn't kept his promise. Karl Rove is not only still working in the White House, but he has security clearance. Now it turns out that the vice-president of the United States may have been responsible for those leaks for political reasons. That is the kind of thing that has not been done to my knowledge since Aaron Burr was vice president." Howard Dean- Face the Nation, February 12th, 2006

"Aaron Burr is also the last Vice-President to shoot anyone."

Dean also said if the statements by Libby were true, then Cheney must step down...that he can no longer remain as Vice President.

14. So Dean know already about

cheney shooting Wittington? Trying to get a timeline here. :)

[madfloridian]

16. Don't know if he knew. The bold is a quote by Booman.

Lots are wondering though. Bet the word was out by then to DC at least.

[Cha]

18. Thanks! We know Dean

is prescient, anyway

[C_U_L8R]

[stlsaxman]
