This week’s “Alpha Jackass” award:
“The President made a big deal about bringing the Iraqi prime minister to address Congress. The Iraqi prime minister is an anti-Semite. We don’t need to spend $200, $300, $500 billion bringing democracy to Iraq to turn it over to people who believe Israel doesn’t have a right to defend itself.” —Demo National Committee Chairman Howard Dean, insulting a domestically constrained ally for cheap political gain

Although we wrote earlier Mr. Maliki should condemn Hezbollah, he remained silent. Howard Dean has gone beyond any reasonable discussion, he is simply irresponsible and ignorant. Dean also attacked Katherine Harris, former Florida Secretary of State who certified George Bush’s victory in 2000, which was her responsibility.

Dean said in Wednesday’s speech that Democratic incumbent Bill Nelson is “going to beat the pants off Katherine Harris, who didn’t understand that it is ethically improper to be the chairman of a campaign and count the votes at the same time. This is not Russia and she is not Stalin.”

If Dr. Dean decides to go back into medicine he could be the next Dr. Kevorkian.

This week’s “Braying Jackass” award:

“If I was president, this [war in Lebanon] wouldn’t have happened… The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East. We’re going to have a lot of ground to make up because of it… This is about American security and Bush has failed. He has made it so much worse because of his lack of reality in going into Iraq.” —John Kerry pontificating from a bar in Detroit
