“I stand in support of the comments of the gentlewoman from Tennessee (Mrs. Blackburn). It is too bad more Members are not here, but I think it is proper for the Democrat Members of this Chamber to demand an apology of their Democrat leader, rather than the endorsement the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi) has given him when he dismissed the Republican Party as a bunch of white Christians. I am not worried as a Republican. I am offended as a white Christian. I know that the season is always open for people like Mr. Dean who loves divisive politics. It is always open season on Christian and on white folks because they are the group you can kick and you can get away with it. It is politically correct. But I am sick and tired of it, and I would call on my Democrat colleagues to ask the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi) to rethink her assessment of Mr. Dean when she says he is doing a good job representing their party. And I would also call on my Democrat friends to ask Mr. Dean to apologize, maybe not to the Christians of the world, because, obviously, he does not care about them, but maybe to any of the other groups that he seems to constantly offend as each week goes by while he is chairman of the Democratic National Committee. ____________________”
