Florida Congressman Jeff Miller calls for Howard Dean to resign

Heard about this on Sean Hannity's show this evening. Jeff Miller, a Republican congressman from Florida's panhandle, has called for the resignation of Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean. The press release was sent out yesterday, and the mainstream media (surprise!) has ignored it.

From Congressman Miller's web site:

Congressman Jeff Miller (R-FL-01) issued the following statement in response to DNC Chairman Howard Dean's comments that the "idea that we're going to win the war in Iraq is an idea which is just plain wrong."

"Yesterday, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee said our troops can't win in Iraq. Howard Dean effectively signaled to insurgents and terrorists everywhere that his party was ready to wave the white flag in the War on Terror.

For the sake of political gains, Dean's Party has chosen to trivialize the sacrifices our men and women in uniform have made in Iraq. His Party has gone from attacking the liberation of Iraq, to attacking the Bush Administration, to attacking the Armed Services of this country and saying they cannot win.

Howard Dean's comments were a direct attack on the morale of our military and border on treasonous.

Regardless of your opinions on Iraq, it is wrong to attack the capabilities of our military for the purposes of political gain. I call on Mr. Dean to resign as chairman of the Democratic National Committee."

Lots of straight talking from Miller about Copperhead Dean.
