So THAT'S What They Stand For

For years now we've been waiting for the Dems to tell us what they stand for (other than being the anti-Bush). Today Howard the Donkey cleared it all up (h/t Best of the Web):

"I was recently asked about the difference between the Democratic and Republican parties. When it comes right down to it, the essential difference is that the Democrats fundamentally believe it is important to make sure that American Jews feel comfortable being American Jews."--Howard Dean

Oh, that clears it up (no, I don't understand it either).
