Elitist Dean and “The Low Class”

Published by Jyoti FriedlandCharlotte Front and Center, a Puma Lady, who confronted Howard Dean

This is an excerpt from the newspaper, Charlotte Observer, when Howard visited Charlotte , NC on 25th of July as part of his tour program:  Shouts of protest continued intermittently.  When Dean mentioned what he called “the biggest job for President Obama,” they hollered, “He’s  not the president!” 

Speaking to reporters later on his bus,he dismissed the protesters.

I’m not sure all of them are Clinton supporters,” he said. Some of them are having fun at the Democrats’ expense. I think shouting during somebody’s speech is low class.” 

  

We’re “low class” . I believe his words were so calculating because he knew no AA were with us that afternoon. Imagine if there were, it becomes racist and the AA community would rise  and there would be a pandemonium. But since we’re an “old” bunch of ladies, “low class” was appropriate for us. Hey, Coward Dean, remember what else we hollered, “I will not fall in line, I own my vote.”

Through the auspices of our leader,  and a bunch of “old” but wiser ladies from http://www.Charlottefrontandcenter,Asheville, and Greenville , we were able to have a dignified coup to express our freedom of speech and freedom to assembly. I thought I’ve got thick skin and would never be affected by this; you know that I cried….. I know this is so silly compared to the maltreatment thrown to Hillary, so my message is now to Howard Dean, I hold grudges and I will get even in the general election…Jyoti

Low class? Wow, he should talk. Coward Dean is an ass!

Coward Dean is an ass!

Pot, meet kettle.

Rude and now Low Class?- No unity here.

PUMA!!!

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-29 17:18:06

Is low class anything like threatening to scratch out the eyes of a former President?

Comment by Zee | 2008-07-30 03:44:15

Low class is giving the Senator/former First Lady a middle finger and playing the song “99 problems and not one of them a bitch”

Oh, low class is also chuckling along with Bernie “all women are hos” Mac.

You must be a bambette.

Comment by Jason | 2008-07-29 13:47:53

So you think its acceptable to just shout out in the middle of a speech?

Not sure I get the point - Dean said interrupting is low class.

What do you think it is? Classy?

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-29 13:49:09

Democracy must be low-class to you too.

Comment by stateofdisbelief | 2008-07-29 21:08:07

So you think its acceptable to just shout out in the middle of a speech?

Uh…YES! if it’s Dean, Pelosi, Brazile or Oblahma

 
 

Comment by LDW | 2008-07-29 13:52:46

Dean made a factual error in saying “President Obama”. The crowd was merely correcting him, you see. If Dean wants to pontificate on behalf of his Messiah, he should at least make an effort to appear infallible and not say manifestly wrong things.

“control FREAKS”

 

Comment by chris | 2008-07-29 14:36:47

I can’t understand how “Howard the Scream” Dean ever got to be head of the DNC anyway. He was a turn off dope when he ran for Pres. and yet he got to be in charge after he basically blew himself up during his campaign. The poor Dem. party just keeps shooting themselves in the foot as they try to find “the Cadidiate”. Too bad for them that she was standing right in front of them. Idiots. Not too late to correct the error DNC. Get rid of Obamba, Dean and Pelosi and put Hillary where she belongs. You will win if you do.

Comment by chris | 2008-07-29 14:41:05

Sorry,I forgot, they need to lose Brazile and Kerry too. Then the Dem party might have a chance to get back to their old ethics and what they used to stand for.

Comment by skepticle | 2008-07-30 09:31:07

Yeah, all Dean did was mastermind the strategy that won back Congress for the Democrats. Who does he think he is?

 
 

Comment by Factcheck2 | 2008-07-29 16:37:40

His group Democracy for America, got him elected, then continued working on the side, in league with him, to get Obama elected. Nice little scam.

They’re already calling him President Obama because they know the fix is in. What crock this “election” is.

 

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-29 17:24:09

Yeah, they keep repeating that “error”. He isn’t the president, he isn’t going to be the president. bo dicks, get over it.

 

Comment by Ted | 2008-07-29 20:07:10

Actually, no, the crowd was not merely correcting him. Read the article. They were shouting throughout his speech. They were attempting to keep hinm from making a speech. It was they who were infringing on his free speech rights, not the other way around.

Facts is facts.

Comment by Ai1een | 2008-07-30 02:20:23

Oh, I see, you mean like what the Obamanites did to Hillary during her speech at the Jefferson dinner? All that was caught on film, the shouting and even the booing of Hillary Clinton - and what about a Presidential candidate who “shoots the finger” at his rival candidate in Raleigh, North Carolina? I was there when that happened and EVERYONE knew EXACTLY what he was doing - ESPECIALLY Obama.

Comment by Mary Lou | 2008-07-29 14:00:59

Dear Jason,

PUMAs have been trying to get a response from Dean through e-mails, calls and petitions for weeks, but he has done nothing to respond to us.
Trying to get his attention in a public forum is our last resort. What you are calling low class I call democracy in action, something Dean and Obama are trying to stamp out by disparaging people who dissent and force feeding
unity to us.

Comment by eurogirl70 | 2008-07-29 14:16:44

To say it another way Jason, PUMA is a the truest example of “People Powered Politics.” I hate to break it to you but that mantra is not owned by Markos over at the evil orange! He merely siphoned it off for the title of his piece of crap book. Why do I call his book a piece of crap. Because he has betrayed everything in it in order to take the Democratic Party in his and Dean’s direction and not in the direction of the vast majority of “true” Democrats. Markos voted for the first President Bush in ‘92 so he is not one to castigate anyone on voting their “conscience”

As for Dean. He spent his own presidential race decrying against Democrats being “Republican-lite” and now 4 years later has tossed over the finish line, the most “Republican-lit” slash libertarian candidate that the Democratic Party could have possibly fielded! Bully on you!

Comment by Tuppence 411 | 2008-07-29 14:39:31

To say it another way Jason- FU!

Jyoti- No tears. You are a brave and courage woman and thank you for being our powerful voice in Charlotte. Thank-you.

Coward Dean used a classic misogynist ploy to get “uppity women” to behave- chastize them for being unlady like. I see thru him and other women reading this will see it too. Screw him. This has me even MORE pissed-off and I didn’t think it was possible.

 
 
 

Comment by Elizabeth Reilly | 2008-07-29 14:08:47

Jason, it’s the only way anyone not an Obama moron can get his attention. He has dismissed us as unimportant.
If necessary, we will destroy the Democratic party as it is currently constructed, and don’t think that, when Obama loses in November, that Dean, Brazile and Pelosi, along with Obama’s henchmen will not be held accountable, and, if there is any justice at all, they will be kicked out on their arrogant asses.

Comment by RunningDogLackey | 2008-07-29 15:33:28

Yes, soon we will all bow to you and rue the day we incurred your wrath.

Still a tad melodramatic, but not over-the-top.

Check out how you treated Governor Mike Easley.

The Babies are stupid liars. Sometimes they forget, other times they don’t tell the truth. Either way, check out how bused in babies booed the governor of NC.

That was no class.

Dean, you made 2.3 million votes not matter, you handed an election to the guy with less votes. Plus, you gave him 17,000 votes that were not cast for him. You are a criminal, and a dictator like your acolyte.

Obama did not win anything, he sure is not President and those of us who finished school will make sure he never will be.

Comment by eurogirl70 | 2008-07-29 14:47:10

What about the booing that Sheila Jackson Lee got from her own constituents for being an avid supporter of Clinton. How “classy” was that Jason?

Telling Dean that Obama is not the President is stating both a certifiable fact and the obvious!

Comment by obamaphobe | 2008-07-29 14:29:22

I don’t remember Dean saying it was low class when the sign “iron my shirt” showed up. I don’t remember Dean saying it was low class when everyone booed when Hillary’s name was mentioned during Edwards or Obama’s speaches. I don’t remember Dean saying it was low class when hecklers went after McCain during his speeches. Do you remember him saying that? Hmmm…No! So, Move-on Jason!

Comment by annie sweetie oakley | 2008-07-29 18:22:16

Gotta use that Freedom of Speech while you still can! DNC will be herding all dissenters into a mini-concentration camp at the convention so get Dean now while the gettin’s good!

Comment by jadwiga | 2008-07-29 15:20:34

Jason,

Was that acceptable to shout in Hillary’s speech about ironing? Was that acceptable when the Obama crowd booed when Al Gore and others tried to acknowledge Hillary’s achievements to bring about real unity? It wasn’t only low class. It was hostile.

I personally see my classy upbringing bleeding away drop by drop every time I read an entry from an AH like you.

Comment by TeakWoodKite | 2008-07-29 17:02:46

So you think its acceptable to just shout out in the middle of a speech?

YES!!! YES!!! If a person who has witnessed the wreckage that is the wake left behind by the BO-DNC can not have their voice heard much less acknowldeged the YOU BET!!!

President Andrew Shepherd: America isn’t easy. America is advanced citizenship. You’ve got to want it bad, because it’s gonna put up a fight. It’s gonna say, “You want free speech? Let’s see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil who is standing center stage and advocating at the top of his lungs that which you would spend a lifetime opposing at the top of yours. You want to claim this land as the ‘land of the free’? Then the symbol of your country cannot just be a flag. The symbol also has to be one of its citizens exercising his right to burn that flag in protest. Now show me that, defend that, celebrate that in your classrooms. Then you can stand up and sing about the ‘land of the free.’”

An American President.

BO your fifteen minutes are just about up.

Comment by ritamary | 2008-07-29 18:01:49

It is no more low class than shouting “Hillary, iron my shirt!” while Hillary was speaking…I never heard Howard Dean speak up when that happened.

 

Comment by Hope Floats | 2008-07-30 01:01:05

He didn’t have the balls to say t then and there, either. He waited till he was on a radio show. I don’t see Obama’s poll numbers breaking 50%. Ever.

 

Comment by Zee | 2008-07-30 03:47:33

It is up to the performer, whether a musician, actor, comedian, politician, speech-giver, to hold the audience rapt.

Heckling and booing are just as time-honored a response as applause.

It is NEVER the audience’s fault if the speaker can’t hold their attention or deal with hecklers.

It’s a calcualted plan to destroy democracy and the Democratic Party. Seems an unlikely thing to do but we all know it deep down and there is proof.
Emails from Donna are our proof. The big London handlers are pulling Soros’s puppet strings who pulls on Dean’s strings et al.

Sorry if this has been posted but maybe we can all help out??

Subject: Howard Deans calls Clinton supporters “low class”
Body: On friday, Howard Dean gave a speech in Charlotte. NC. Several Hillary Clinton supporters came to protest Howard Dean. Afterwards in a interview, Howard Dean called Hillary Clinton supporters “Low Class” . Well if that is not enough to piss Clinton supporters off, i don’t know what is… just goes to prove that Howard Dean doesn’t care for Clinton democrats…. we must email and call Howard Deans office and let him know that we Clinton supporters are not low class and we do not appreciate him calling us “low class”

The DNC number 202-863-8000

Just thought I would add that the DNC has a toll free number:
1-877-336-7200.

time passages.
thank you and thank you all for your kind words of support for us “low class” old ladies. Yea, Howard Dean definitely has his head in the sand. The Puma movement is growing fast and they are in denial. That’s why he refers to us protestors as incognito Republicans. I can tell you that is the furthest thing from the truth.

Dump Dean! Yea!

Comment by Lou | 2008-07-29 15:57:11

Low class? the screaming Dean needs to tell us why
what the nightly news hasn’t told us about
Obama’s extensive connections to corrupt Chicago politics—while he claims to be a reformer
Obama’s plans to increase taxes—amid rising fuel and food prices, he just voted to raise taxes for anyone making more than $32,000
Obama’s dangerous mix of inexperience and poor judgment—evident in his shifting policy positions and the Rev. Wright scandal
Obama’s radical voting record—he repeatedly voted against legislation to protect babies born alive during failed abortions

Dean is owned by Soros. Soros learned everything he knows from the Nazi’s by his own admission.
Dean is projecting his low classness.
We have laws in place to protect from the power elite Dean. Now step aside you inept excuse for a leader.

Of course not. What can you expect from an Obot? Principles and liberal causes don’t matter.

The only thing Obama supporters care about is women knowing their place. That includes not speaking up when a man is talking.

You want undignified behavior, how about the Jefferson dinner in NC where all the Obama people loudly BOOOED, our governor, Mike Easley. Now that was rude and undignified at a formal event, protesting at a small gathering like this, ha, nothing compared to what BOs supporters have done, nothing and might I add one of the few ways to voice our dissatisfaction. I won’t forget or forgive the BO supporters and their jeers at Gov. Easley.

Point me to a place where you thought that was rude and voiced it and I’ll take your comments seriously.

How about the Obamabot in a Seattle caucus in February– when asked to say the pledge of allegiance to the flag — the SOBs booed and forced a change in the traditional beginning of a caucus.

Now THAT is rude behavior — and how about the Obamabot who show up — don’t read the article and jump right in and insult — those are Troll trash.

And how about ALL of those caucuses that the Obamaots bullied and threatened Hillary supporters — and the Obamabutts lied about Sen. Clinton. That is more Troller trash behavior.

Howie Dean should be heckled and harassed where EVER he goes. That would should real CLASS — of real patriots who are fighting for democracy.

This was the same Michigan rally where Obama supporters also booed Hillary.

The comments on that last one from Obama supporters was “So what. Obama supporters are embedded in Clinton rallies to try and make news. BFD.” Obama seems to share that sentiment. So, Howard Dean can shut his fucking pie hole. This guy made headlines by squealing like a pig at a campaign rally. He can talk about class till he’s blue in the face, and he might as well put on lipstick. He’s still a fat pig.

I don’t know each of your personal political convictions, and apologize if anyone finds this offensive. I thought it was important enough to share.
This is Jeff’s first hand view of Senator Obama.

Hello everyone,
As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to ‘The War Zone’.
I wanted to share with you what happened.
He got off the plane and got into a bullet proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is the commander here at
Bagram.
As the Soldiers where lined up to shake his hand he blew them off and didn’t say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the General.
As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big top tent that military personnel can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could take his publicity pictures playing basketball.
He again shunned the opportunity to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service.
So really he was just here to make a showing for the American’s back home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here you would thank those that are providing the freedom that they are providing for you.
I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball Players or the Dallas Cowboy Cheer leaders than from one of the Senators, who wants to be the President of the United States .
I just don’t understand how anyone would
want him to be our Commander-and-Chief. It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.
If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to know what kind of caliber of person he really is. What you see in the news is all fake.
In service,

Heckling is not supposed to be dignified, but it’s often the last bastion of the truth teller.

If a heckler is howling stupidities or irrelevancies, then the audience has a right to be annoyed, and even oust the heckler.

But Dean, speaking to Hillary supporters, referred to “President Obama”. Some speakers just deserve to be heckled.

Blue State Girl….what is no class is crying racist, stealing a primary and shoving an unqualified, elitist, race card user down our throats. Now, that’s NO CLASS.

“Dignity”goes out the window when a whole group of people are considered and treated irrelevant! It’s called PROTEST.

“dignity” is just code words for “civilized” “lady like” “not uppity” “not in your face”

Anyway, they were just shouting an obvious reminder that Dean really does need to hear — OBAMA IS NOT THE PRESIDENT! HE ISN’T EVEN THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE OFFICIALLY YET!!!!! OBAMA ACTING LIKE HE’S PRESIDENT DOESN’T MAKE HIM ONE!!!

Low class is swanning about in dead animal skins while your husband’s constituents are freezing to death on clod ratholes.
