Howard Dean "Optimistic" That "We're About to Enter the '60s Again"
From Cybercast News Service:
(CNSNews.com) - America is about to revisit one of the most turbulent decades in its history, Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean told a religious conference in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday. "We're about to enter the '60s again," Dean said, but he was not referring to the Vietnam War or racial tensions.My Comments:
Dean said he is looking for "the age of enlightenment led by religious figures who want to greet Americans with a moral, uplifting vision."
"The problem is when we hit that '60s spot again, which I am optimistic we're about to hit, we have to make sure that we don't make the same mistakes," Dean added. See Video

"It's nice to see that Howard Dean's hostility to the religious community ends when people of faith vote Democrat," Republican National Committee spokesman Josh Holmes told Cybercast News Service.
Holmes added he was not surprised that "Howard Dean's political perspective is derived from a 1960s counterculture view of the world. What is surprising -- and disturbing -- is that he can urge a massive expansion of government and denounce the Democrat mistake of creating a 'culture of dependence' in the same speech."
"He may want to revisit that mistake to update his talking points and the Democrat policy manual," Holmes said.
Before leaving Tuesday's conference, the DNC chairman thanked those in attendance for giving him "a big lift."
"I came in the wrong door when I first got here," Dean said. "I came in the back, and everybody was talking about praising the Lord, and I thought, 'I am home. Finally, a group of people who want to praise the Lord and help their fellow man just like Jesus did and just like Jesus taught.' Thank you so much for doing that for me."
At least he's being honest about where the Dems want to drag our country.

See, only those who are truly out of touch would desire a return to the 60's. I'm sure many of us have always suspected that many of the Dems are of that mindset, but now we have confirmation.
The '60's?
MORE sex, MORE drugs, MORE rock'n'roll?
How?
Not only that, but for Dean to disparage the 1950s is just plain stupid.
I mean, what's the name of one of the most popular TV shows of all time set in the 1950s?
"Happy Days". And everybody liked Ike. Oh yeah, it sounds like everything was just horrible in the 1950s and everyone was just waiting to be liberated by a bunch of dope-smoking hippies.
