Dean was one of the best DNC heads. Obama replacing him with Kaine was one of his biggest mistakes.
Yeah, right. Howard Dean proclaimed, at a campaign event in 2004, that .... "The Supreme Court is more conservative now than it has been at any time in the last 150 years."
That's precisely the kind of message that the Dems should be spreading right now. Right.
Considering that the supreme court overturning Roe is what won Democrats the midterms, yes, it is the kind of message they should be spreading.
Because the SCOTUS overturned ONE popular precedent, it is MORE CONSERVATIVE now than at any time in the last 170 years?!?! The Court is more conservative now than when it struck down minimum wage laws, than when it struck down price-control laws, and than when it declared that business owners have a constitutional right to prevent their employees from joining labor unions?
IF the SCOTUS, in recent times, were to strike down the 1964 Civil Rights Act, if it revives
laissez-faire economics doctrine as if that's required by the Constitution, and if it strikes down Social Security, Medicare, and virtually all of the rest of the modern welfare state enacted by the federal government in the last 90 years, then you might plausibly get away with saying that the SCOTUS is, now, MORE CONSERVATIVE THAN AT ANY TIME IN THE LAST 170 YEARS, but until then, if you try to say that Howard Dean was accurate with what he said 18 years ago, you only make it perfectly clear that you will say any FALSE thing you feel like if that FALSE statement happens to persuade enough low-information voters to vote for your party that you win. But if so, do not claim that your party is more truthful than the Republicans.
