Howard Dean's Latest: GOP a "white Christian party"

"They all behave the same. They all look the same"

More from the "mouth that roared" (or was it more like a scream?):
The GOP is pretty much a "white Christian party," said Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean in the latest controversial remarks that have prompted increasing criticism from leading members of his own party.

The latest comments came in San Francisco at a forum with minority leaders and journalists.

He characterized the Republican Party as "a pretty monolithic party. They all behave the same. They all look the same. It's pretty much a white Christian party."
My Comments:
Asked about Dean's comments, GOP Chairman Ken Mehlman's response was that "a lot of folks who attended my Bar Mitzvah would be surprised [that I head a Christian party]."

Howard Dean is the gift to the Republicans that keeps on giving.

Last I check Howard Dean was both white and a Christian with a party that has only fielded white Christian presidential nominees.

You're right, Jeff; although most of the Christians I know can locate the book of Job in the Old Testament rather than the New Testament.

Jeff,

You're not giving the Demagogic Party enough credit. I'm sure it is just an oversight, but they used to bill Bill Clinton as the first black president. ;)

Ya gotta love that party. Those guys are so full of love and justice that they can even make their own truth.
