Homo Howard Dean Redeems His Scream
Howard Dean is officially exonerated of his legendarily freakish scream, thanks to the brave, wise, and concise statement he made yesterday in response to the New York Court of Appeals ruling against gay marriage. (Note the strategic avoidance of the word “gay,” and the heartening inclusion of the word “bigot.”)
“As Democrats, we believe that every American has a right to equal protection under the law and to live in dignity. And we must respect the right of every family to live in dignity with equal rights, responsibilities and protections under the law. Today’s decision by the New York Court of Appeals, which relies on outdated and bigoted notions about families, is deeply disappointing, but it does not end the effort to achieve this goal.”

From the Dean Scream, perhaps, but does it redeem him from his spineless pandering to Pat Robertson and his American Taliban?...Outlook not so good.
