Dean Tackling the Big Issues, Like Invoking Jesus Name Before a Football Game...

What a fucking jack-ass....

Democratic leader Howard Dean blasted the GOP's lack of diversity in a speech to Jewish communal leaders.

Dean, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, also appeared to criticize the practice of including an invocation of Jesus at the end of pre-game prayers at scholastic sporting events.

Dean made the remark Sunday during a decidedly partisan speech at the opening plenary of the United Jewish Communities' General Assembly in Nashville. He painted the Republican Party as religiously and racially exclusive.

"This country is not a theocracy," Dean said. "There are fundamental differences between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party believes that everybody in this room ought to be comfortable being an American Jew, not just an American; that there are no bars to heaven for anybody; that we are not a one-religion nation; and that no child or member of a football team ought to be able to cringe at the last line of a prayer before going onto the field."

Why would anyone cringe at the name of Jesus? Mohammed I can understand but Jesus?

Who knows, it's like asking why do liberals support Womens lib AND Islamists. It defies logic.

Its easier to figure out the mindset of a jihadists than a liberal.
