Governor Dean Meets with Arab American Leaders
(This post is from Fred Baldasaro, Governor Dean's trip director.)
The Governor met with Arab American leaders in Dearborn, Michigan yesterday at the Arab American National Museum, the only museum of its kind in the United States. The museum is a project of the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services (ACCESS), which provides services and does outreach to the community in Michigan and across the country.
Before the Governor spoke, Ishmael Ahmad, the executive director of ACCESS, gave us a tour of the museum and we learned quite a bit. Did you know an Arab American guy named Robert George worked at the White House for 50 years under seven administrations? What did he do? He played the White House Santa Claus every year.
Once the program started, the Governor told the crowd how important it was that we as Democrats reach out to all types of ethnic groups. "I'm in politics because I want a better America, one in which we're not divided," the Governor said.
Being in Michigan also enables us to drink Vernor's Ginger Soda, a local specialty that the Gov thoroughly enjoys. I'd say I found it to have a rather bold taste.

I tried to send this to your two most senior dmentia suffers but as with the democratic party since D.N.A. Klinton - nothing works:
Here goes!
John Murtha,
My name is John P. McKenzie. I live in Cosby, Tennessee.
I am a Vietnam veteran. I was NOT a Marine. I was a soldier.
Don’t you dare speak for me.
As a former marine you were a good rifleman.
You were and are also an EXCELLENT actor.
And in as much as you MUST be spending time with Ted Kennedy – a man who is not only wrapped in the failed policy of a dead young woman in “his” submerged alcohol soused automobile but also in the “illusion” of pampered Daddy Fitz arranged pseudo military service I can fully understand YOUR sudden mental retardation.
What the “American people know” – you lousy actor - is that this President is many things one that he is not is the liar that you morally defunct liberal assholes are trying to label him.
We also know that another illusionist – YOUR Mr. Slick Willie Klinton had his own failed policies which resulted in the filthiest administration this country has ever had to tolerate.
Don’t you dare speak for me!
Don’t you dare speak for this American.
Don’t your dare speak for this Vietnam vet.
I WAS a soldier, a real soldier.
And on a PERSONAL level you damned traitor -
Kiss my ass you old Marine jackass.
YOU, “sir” make me sick to my Airborne stomach.
John P. McKenzie, F.U.
