open thread: campaign soundbites

By Aziz P. -
There have been some amazing comments in recent threads, with a lot of ideas for one-line soundbites for the Dean campaign. Let's have a Deanstorm session and come up with as many as possible. I'll kick it off by reposting CTDem2's soundbite regarding civil rights/Santorum:

"As a doctor, you treat all your patients the best you can - black or white, rich or poor, gay or straight. I feel that as a political leader in America, you must do the same. That is what civil unions is about - basic equal rights."


BTW - I'd like to commend the regulars on the ZonkBoard - if you haven't been reading it, you're missing out on real gems, such as this new Dean website by CentaurMyst, a link to this Dean interview in Philly, and this comment from DU about the "inspiration effect". The ZonkBoard moves fast and it's developing a sub-culture and flavor all its own. Just don't blink, or you'll miss it...

Am I missing something here?

The incomparable Aziz P. has kindly invited me to post here in addition to my usual perches at Liberals Against Terrorism and Chez Nadezhda . For that, I thank him, and I hope that I do him credit. Like perhaps most readers of this site, I'm not a fan of the Bush Administration. Last year I devoted a goodly portion of my life to ousting it, including a trip to freezing cold Cedar Rapids and Waterloo, Iowa, where I canvassed for the Dean Campaign in the runup to the caucuses. I admit that I lost faith in the Dean movement after that, and I floundered around a bit in trying to figure out who to support, eventually setting upon Johnny Sunshine Edwards (or was it Clark?). I have never been a big fan of John Kerry, to say the least. It's tempting to fall into cynical sniping, which I myself have done at times. But I find it dispiriting and ultimately corro
