The Dr. of Disology is at it again:

Howard Dean showed up to talk about Black History Month but the focus quickly changed to politics Tuesday night in ICC Auditorium.

The Chairman of the Democratic National Committee and former Governor of Vermont contrasted the two parties’ presidential candidates, saying that with a woman and an African-American as the two front-runners, the Democratic field “looks like America,” while the all-white male Republican field “looks like the 1950s and talks like the 1850s.”

Since this is the season for repudiations and apologies, will we see the Hillary or Obama camp repudiate these repugnant comments that do more than just imply racism, or let them slide? Or perhaps we’ll see Obama repudiate them a few days after they’ve had a chance to sink in, kinda like he did when his campaign manager tried to imply last month that the Clinton campaign was running a racist campaign against the O-man?

  1. This is the mind of Howard Dean on display again.

    Remember the hotel staff comment he made an election cycle or so ago about Republicans?

  2. Yeah - people like Winston Churchill and Michelangelo were just to old for the job. on the other hand if the resume requires a Dean scream, McCain is still pretty good at yelling at his conservative base. Er…make that ex -base!

  3. Yes this coming from the leader of the party who wanted to keep African-Americans enslaved in the 1850s, and from the party who actively fought against civil rights reform in the 1960s, Sen. Byrd, and Al Gore Sr. amongst them. It is my hope and prayer that this idiot keeps on opening his yap. - Lorica

  4. Okay, one each white woman and black man, both hard left.

    Guess I don’t fit into Dr. Dean’s America.

  5. The party that caused the major setback of reformation
    by passing the Jim Crow laws, oppressing the newly
    freed slaves for another 100 years. That political party.
