Gee, Marc Ambinder...is Howard Dean making too much difference on health care now?
And you bloggers are feeling it necessary to tweet and twitter Ron Brownstein's idiot comments all over the internet?

Marc Ambinder tweets

Ron Brownstein: "Howard Dean is becoming living proof that health care reform should offer a universal entitlement to Valium."7:25 AM Sep 18th from TweetDeck
marcambinder


To quote Digby on Brownstein's stupid comments.


But that doesn't stop privileged village insider Ron Brownstein from being a snotty little twit:



"Howard Dean is becoming living proof that health care reform should offer a universal entitlement to Valium."



Hahahahahahaha! Dean is just so stupid, getting all excited about stupid stuff like wars and health care and stuff. Doesn't he know that the only thing that wealthy elites are supposed to get upset about is torture prosecutions and blow jobs?

Keep up the good work, Howard Dean. Don't let the Ron Brownsteins and Marcs of the world get you down.

1. Maybe he's just jealous that all the talk shows aren't asking Ambinder on instead of Howard Dean?
It's not like Howard has his own "I hate somebody" show on Fox. He gets asked to speak because he has
a coherent argument that many want to either hear or argue with. He also happens to be dead on in the
eyes of a lot of people. I guess that is too much for some to handle.

2. Interesting post in the comments at Digby's site.
About Brownstein's insider connections:

http://www.haloscan.com/comments/digby/3371545141919486060/#911828

"His latest wifely edition is Director of Communications for the Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC), a creepy Washington, D.C. think tank founded in 2007.

The BPC is staffed with Washington insiders whose mission is to promote Village Values (and corporate-friendly legislation) under the guise of "bipartisanship" in the congress. Check out Founders, Advisory Board, Board of Directors, and Staff for familiar Village names, to wit: http://www.bipartisanpolicy.org/about

Founders of the Bipartisan Policy Center -- and two of Obama's BFFs:
Senator Tom Daschle (D-SD)
Senator George J. Mitchell (D-ME)
Senator Bob Dole (R-KS)
Senator Howard Baker (R-TN)

Prior to joining the Bipartisan Policy Center, Ms. McMenamin spent three years on Capitol Hill as the Communications Director for U.S. Senator John McCain, serving as his chief spokesperson and overseeing his Senate press operation."
