Bring Out The Goon

I loved it when Paul Lo Duca would say "Bring out the Goon" when referring to Gagne closing a game. It was a perfect description. A hulking oaf who didn't seem to care what people thought of him.
Well The Democrats should be saying the same thing about Howard Dean. When it is the bottom of the ninth and the game is on the line, they should just yell "Bring out the Goon!" And then Howard Dean can just open his mouth and throw spit balls.
Recently, set up men Barbara Boxer and Chuck Schumer, boycotted Al Maliki's address to a joint session of congress because of Al Maliki's lack of condemnation of Hezbollah. Later, closer Howard Dean called Al Maliki an Anti-Semite.
Dean also lashed out at President Bush's Iraq policy and at allowing Iraqi Prime
Minister Nouri al-Maliki to address Congress on Wednesday, calling the foreign
leader an "anti-Semite."
"We don't need to spend 200 and 300 and 500 billion
dollars bringing democracy to Iraq to turn it over to people who believe that
Israel doesn't have a right to defend itself and who refuse to condemn
Hezbollah," he said.
Funny how this bunch can chastise a man who is in the middle of a warzone, but have nothing to say to their own players.

House votes 410-8 to support Israel and Condemns Hezbollah.
These names voted against
1. Jim McDermott - D from Washington
2. Carolyn Kilpatrick - D from Michigan
3. Neil Abercrombie - D from Hawaii
4. John Conyers - D from Michigan
5. Ron Paul - R from Texas
6. John Dingell - D from Michigan
7. Fortney Stark - D from California
8. Nick Rahall - D from West Virginia and a Lebanese-American

Of course we all know the real reason for the tough talk and the boycott. Do I need to say it again?
