Joe Lieberman Retains his Chairmanship

Below Lieberman the turncoat.


So, the Democrats kiss Lieberman's ass today so they can try and get to 60 votes in the Senate. Though it doesn't matter because the Democrats have no back bone and have not had one for a decade or more. Listen to this clip by Lieberman telling us the Democrats left him. So, he goes and supports McCain because the Democrats finally begin listening to the progressive wing of the party.

Is today then, a return to Clintonism? Centrism? Forgoing the people and sucking up to corporations and special interests? Is that what we can look forward to in the coming years with Obama? Lieberman here blames the dems for hyper partisanship. Are you kidding me? The democrats? Joe left the democratic party a long time ago and it is democratic activists who began pushing the democrats to act like democrats again instead of Republican-lite.

If this is what we have to look forward to, you can have it. The democratic party activists (progressives) are responsible for the 2006 landlside, Obama winning the democratic nomination (along with African-American democrats who have been equally ignored) and the 2008 landslide. If these democrats think they will go back to business as usual they have got another thing coming.

Assclowns!



From think progress:

Senate Democrats are allowing Lieberman to keep control of the Armed Services subcommittee, even though some of his most misguided and incendiary attacks on Obama were on national security. Lieberman, for example, suggested that Obama hasn’t always “put the country first,” said that President Bush was right for comparing Obama to Nazi appeasers, and worried that Obama was “naive” and lacked the “right stuff to bomb Iran.”

Lieberman, the Dope

Why does this guy still hold any chairmanships? I mean wtf Harry? Get rid of this guy once and for all. This clip shows how off the deep end he has gone and the people of Connecticut should ask for his resignation immediately. I am not getting into the politics of Hamas or Hezbollah because I vehemently disagree with the democratic party, but this bullshit Lieberman spews is an attempt to link Obama with so-called terrorist sympathizers. It is code and it stinks. Assclown.

Lieberman Stripped of Superdelegate Status

Fuck Joe Lieberman. I mean seriously. Campaigning for John McCain? When did this guy go so wrong? Just because Ned Lamont kicked his ass - he turns on the democrats and Harry Reid just carries his sorry ass. Go away! Strip him of his committee assignments too.

Anyway, whew, sorry - Joe Lieberman has been stripped of his superdelegate status: Lieberman's endorsement of Republican John McCain disqualifies him as a super-delegate to the Democratic National Convention under what is informally known as the Zell Miller rule, according to Democratic State Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo.

As my DC friends have reiterated all about the same time, superdelegates (all congressionally elected Democrats of each state as well as the Governor and other designated DNC folks) are more like stupiddelegates. It subverts the democratic process. Superdelegates are a way to have both direct primary elections, while keeping the party bosses happy. Well, at least Joe Lieberman doesn't have a say because he endorsed John McCain, the newly right wing Senator from Arizona.
