Statement by Governor Dean on Republican Filibuster

BURLINGTON -- Howard Dean released the following
statement this afternoon:

"At 6:00pm tonight the Republicans are shutting
down Congress. Congress has not delivered on
countless promises to the American people and yet
the Republicans are still preventing any and all
business from getting done. The Republicans' reason
for shutting down the Senate is that four, yes four of
President Bush's extremist right-wing judges are not
being confirmed.

"Three million people have lost their jobs and the
Republicans are worried about jobs for four
right-wing ideologues. Over 400 Americans have
been killed in a needless war and the Republicans
are worried about the well-being of these four
right-wingers. We just sent $87 billion to Iraq that
we could have used for healthcare, education and
jobs here at home, and the Republicans are worried
about these four judgeships.

"There is no better example of the broken system in
Washington than this. With all that Congress should
be doing, Washington politicians are shutting down
Congress to argue over four judicial nominees.

"We need a change in Washington and we have the
power to make that change. We can and we must
take back Washington and take our country back."
