 Lieberman: ‘Reconciliation, Not Retribution’Posted on Nov 18, 2008

NO LIONS
Every time someone lionizes Ronald Reagan, we should replay his nationwide apology for Iran contra.
Every time someone lionizes Lincoln ,we should remember the 600,000 that died because
he was not very good at his trade.
Every time someone lionizes Lieberman, we should remember that he metastasized from the Bush administration.

Lieberman has always done what he deems best for himself, be it political or personal.
Right now he is needed but in the near future let’s hope they kick his backside out the door, or give him menial work and nothing more.

It’s alright, he’s shown his true colors for sooo long that the people in his state are just itching to kick his butt out of office!
He’s such a turn-coat, it’s too bad at one time he had some respectable qualities!

LIEberman is irrelevant..Esp considering Hillary’s aid to McCain’s campaign. Now that’s someone who should be Kicked Out of the Dem party. She’s Never been a TRUE Dem, that’s why she made up the term ‘Reagan Democrat’...To expalin her Neo Con leanings.
Report thisFrankly I don’t recall LIEberman invoking the Assasination of RFK as a reason to vote for McCain either. After THREE times we can assume it was a REQUEST Hillary Hoped someone would accomplish for her!
However, LIEberman had better watch his P’s &Q;‘s there are a number of Criminal investigation which may find their way to HIS doorstep, and those we will be seeking Retribution for. Hope you didn’t get too comfy with your Repug buddies…It could get you Hung.

Yet another clear sign as to who is actually running these > Jew-nited States of America<.
Report thisAnymore additional prove needed for the rest out there who thought and voted for ” that this time perhaps,finally real Change ” is on its way for this country and an > End to Israel-Ass kissing < > Change we can believe in < ? Didn`t we ?
There cannot be any doubt any longer among the masses that when a Rat like Liebermann,someone who had openly been back-stabbing the Democratic Party and President elect Obama viciously .....whose voting record as to “Country First” has shown consistently “Israel First” ...has been “forgiven and forgotten” !
It has become quite evident that the solution to this situation requires the same basic philosophy as it did when the masses were electing Barack Obama :
see the evil presence in power,evaluating what
the future will be if not being stopped and by electing only candidates who “put America First,Second and Last” ! Remember: Yes we can ! !

I think it’s all a feint. Begich just won in Alaska—that’s 58 votes. If both Martin and Franken win that will be 60—and the Dems need Lieberman.
But what if Martin and/or Franken lose? That will be onl 59 or 58 votes…Then, who REALLY needs Lieberman.
Meanwwhile, between now and January they still need his vote to keep their 51 vote margin…so Lieberman keeps his big seat.
Joe Lieberman better pray for both Franken and Martin to win. Otherwise, what do the Dems need him for? NOW they need him. But in January? Who yet knows?

I beg to differ, J. Dysart.
Joe isn’t spineless at all. He’s shown the world who has the balls on Capitol Hill.
He may feign repentance with a soucon of regret, but I’d wager there are high-fives and champagne corks popping at chez Lieberman tonight.
Bravo, Joe. Well played.

The Democrats are pitiful weaklings. You spit in their faces, and they think it’s the dew.

There’s been a lot of speculation and few official announcements about President-Elect Obama’s cabinet selections.
If I’m not mistaken, these appointments are not made without the advice and consent of the U.S. Senate.
In any event, didn’t Americans vote with their wallets this election cycle? That seems like a winning formula.
Hard times are ahead, but we can hold on.

A sad day for all as Joe Lieberman brings his anti constitution positions on torture, wars of aggression, and warrantless spying to a Democratic platform.

Lieberman should not have been forgiven and allowed to continue as usual. He should have either been sent to the Republican Party or terminated. The only viable reason is that he is a member of the lobbyist led corporate DLC and the DLC protects their own, as many members of Congress are members of the DLC, including Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

The Democrats, whom I am one of, and who I voted into office in the last election, have proved once more that they are spineless jellyfish. And Joe Liebermann is the most spineless jellyfish of all. He goes where the current pulls him.
What a joke, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi should start acting like DEMOCRATS or step down.
