Does he really expect anyone to take this seriously?
Who in their party has put up a bill to just stop the war? Period, without any attachments, extra port spending/etc.
NOT ONE.
But after lying to the Americans who wanted to see the dem party stop the war....and them failing to do as they PROMISED they would....because they don't want to take responsibility for the aftermath.....dean's still lying by promising all they have to do now is elected one without a backbone to the WH....THEN they will do what they could have done in January of this year.
How typically liberal.

Dean: Dems Can End Iraq War
By NATASHA T. METZLER
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - The high hurdles faced by congressional Democrats in their efforts to end the Iraq war make electing a Democratic president in 2008 the best way to finish the conflict, Democratic party chairman Howard Dean said Saturday.
He noted his party has made little progress toward ending the war, the cause, he said, that returned them to power.
"The American people hired Democrats last November to ensure that we end this war," Dean said during the weekly Democratic radio address. "So let me be clear, we know that if we don't keep our promise, we may find ourselves the minority again."
Dean put the blame for the lack of progress squarely on the White House and congressional Republicans for blocking his party's attempt at tying war funding to deadlines for troop withdrawals.
"We have to face the reality that Republicans in Congress are standing with President Bush as he stubbornly wields his veto pen," Dean charged. In response, he proposed that the "one way to truly ensure we end this war" was to elect a Democrat as president in 2008.
A former presidential candidate himself, Dean contrasted the field of Democratic and Republican candidates who participated in separate party debates earlier this week, saying only Democrats would end the war.
Democrats also seek to shift troops from Iraq to Afghanistan, restore damaged relationships with other countries and provide the military with "the resources they need," Dean said.

"While the democratic party complains about everything THIS President does to protect our Nation": "What would a Democrat president have done at that point?"
"Apparently, the answer is: Sit back and wait for the next terrorist attack."
