I am just posting the snips about the national anthem in other languages. He was very sensible and patriotic about that.

O'DONNELL: Let me ask you about big controversy brewing today over whether or not the national anthem should be sung in Spanish. President Bush today commented on this, and he said no, that the national anthem should be sung in English. Do you agree?

DEAN: This is the kind of thing that's a bit of distraction. In Canada, they sing the anthem in—the Canadian anthem in French and English. You know, I'm a patriot. I'm proud to have our anthem sung in any language possible. I don't care if you translate it into German. As long as people are singing the national anthem in the United States of America and being patriotic, I think, we ought to be pleased with that.

O'DONNELL: Well, you know, critics of this are calling it the illegal alien anthem and asking the question, why can't those who come to this country learn English and sing it in English?

DEAN: I think they will both learn it in English and do it in Spanish. I'm kind of tired of the right wing picking out different groups every two years to win elections on. We have an immigration problem in this country.

The president has been president for five years. The Republicans have been in charge for five years. They did nothing about it. I tell you, that's another thing the Democrats are going to do differently. We'll pass a real immigration controlled bill. We'll secure our borders. We'll put the money in.

5. Omg! Talk about forced laughter. The GE folks who are heavily

invested in defense contracts surely gave her some points, but 2/3 of the people aren't buying their bias anymore; in fact, I'm sure they listened to every word Dean had to say, which was brilliant.

[madfloridian]

6. The usual stuff about where's your message...countered her on this.

"O'DONNELL: Let's be honest. I mean, we just had the NBC News-Wall Street Journal poll come out. And I know you probably took a look at that, and it shows that Congress's approval ratings are lower than the Republicans in Congress, lower than what the Democrats were in 1994. And of course they lost control, so that might signal of course that Democrats might do well if the midterm elections.

But we also found in our polling that Americans out there don't think that the Democratic Party is much better. Why can't you come up with a 10-point plan, put it on a web site, advertise it here on this program here today that shows the American people how you would do something differently?

DEAN: Well, other than advertising on this program here today, we actually have a six-point plan. It is on our web site, and we have one million households that are going to have their doors knocked on, on Saturday. We have a million doors going to be knocked on with a million flyers and the agenda is very clear.

O'DONNELL: And what's that knocking on doors supposed to do?

DEAN: It's supposed to show people what our message is, since we seem to have trouble getting it out. It is very clear. We want honesty and openness back in our government."

He did grin when he said that, which he does not do on TV much anymore.

7. "Some people" think this is important news.

"Some people" in Corporate Boardrooms would much rather have their paid talking heads enraging middle america over "The Mex'cans takin' our English Drinking Song! -Er-Sorry, Anthem" than soiling anyone's beautiful mind with reminders that we're $300 Billion and a couple thousand coffins deep into a war of occupation based on bullshit lies, or on the fact that gas prices aren't coming down because the shit is a finite resource, genius, or the fact that the President has decided he doesn't need to follow laws that he doesn't agree with, or the fact that the Constitution is in shreds, or that the fact that planet is overheating... and the FACT that our kids are going to be paying the bills, literally and figuratively, on all this crap.

Yep. Immigrants, Anthem, Flag Burning, Gays, Pledge, Those damn Atheist Whackjobs, Brad and Angelina, Tom and Katie, Distract, Distract, Distract Distract Distract Distractdistractdistractdistract
