Why does Howard Dean remind me of a whiny 3 year old? Dean to Democrats: Nominate me or I'll take all my toys (voters) and go home!!! Dean to voters: You shut up! My turn to talk! My turn to talk! Listen to meeee!!!
Dale Ungerer, a retiree from Hawkeye, Iowa, lectured Dean for nearly three minutes near the end of a forum aimed at winning voters for Iowa?s Jan. 19 caucuses.
Ungerer accused Dean and other Democratic presidential hopefuls of dividing the country by bashing Bush instead of outlining their own plans and showing respect for authority.
?Please tone down the garbage, the mean mouthing, the tearing down of your neighbor and being so pompous,? Ungerer told the former Vermont governor and Democratic front-runner. ?You should help your neighbor and not tear him down.?
?George Bush is not my neighbor,? Dean replied.
?Yes, he is,? Ungerer said, to which Dean responded: ?You sit down. You?ve had your say and now I?m going to have my say.?
