I think your post was right on criticizing Dean as the sort of politician whose popularity is based on an impossible image that he is somehow an outsider who always does what he believes in. I still don't believe he is any sort of trainwreck (yet), but he's certainly can't be what Deaniacs think he is.Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01821420867311588899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906005.post-1111462556124605242005-03-21T22:35:00.000-05:002005-03-21T22:35:00.000-05:00So are you defending Dean somehow?So are you defending Dean somehow?Bohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08208145604488196675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906005.post-1111462000289022202005-03-21T22:26:00.000-05:002005-03-21T22:26:00.000-05:00All good points.

I was trying to come up with a more succinct way of saying 'remove the feeding tube'. <BR/><BR/>My point in the post was actually more about Dean's new role than about the merits of the current legislation and legal decisions. Anyway, thanks for your reply. Take care.Bohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08208145604488196675noreply@blogger.com
