"Screamin' Howard Dean" to make an appearance for Ellison..
Just in case you're not up to speed on Minnesota politics, Keith Ellison, Democrat Candidate for MN 5th district, is a Muslim.Dean Set To Celebrate Party Of Ellison
Today’s Ellison/Dean Summit Again Proves That This Is Not Your Daddy’s DFL
Not that there's anything wrong in that, in and of itself. But the problem is, Ellison doesn't appear to be your ordinary average "peace loving" Muslim. Ellison has had longstanding ties with Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam. And if that's not enough, Ellison was in Florida this past week, at a fundraiser sponsored by CAIR, which has had proven ties to extremist Muslim terrorist groups (Can you say Hamas?)
Nonetheless, the likes of Keith Ellison and the likes of Howard Dean are like two peas in a pod:
Dean Doesn't Want "To Prejudge" Bin Laden As Guilty.Folks, it still ain't safe to vote democrat. And it certainly isn't safe to vote for Keith Ellison.
Dean: "I still have this old-fashioned notion that even with people like Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials. So I'm sure that is the correct sentiment of most Americans, but I do think if you're running for president, or if you are president, it's best to say that the full range of penalties should be available. But it's not so great to prejudge the judicial system.'"
BTW, The email has some other rocket-scientist level quotes from Dean, including
“I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for …” (Dana Milbank, “Dean’s Past As Prologue To DNC Future,” The Washington Post, 1/29/05)
But my all-time favorite Dean quote of them all can be found here.
