“...let’s all PLEASE KEEP RELIGION OUT OF THIS.  References to Lieberman’s faith are no more valid than...”

Joe’s the one that brought up religion in the first place, calling opposition to him “anti-semetic.” Joe’s religion clouded his judgement on the Iraq attack, invasion, and occupation, so we’re perfectly justified when we question that side of this very flawed man.

False accusations, made up bullshit, lying, whining....  Yep Joe’s a republican.

KARL ROVE AND HIS DIRTY TRICKSTER HAVE DONE IT AGAIN.  ROVE’S COMMENT WAS MADE THAT THEY WILL HELP JOE WHEREVER THEY CAN (BUSH INCLUDED)

“I suspect that it is nothing more than a kink in one of those internet tubes.”

Got me thinking maybe it was all those gambling chips caught in those tubes and not enough of those gambling horse to run them out…

Lieberman may be a traitorous powermongering sycophant or just an old-style politician now gone with the wind, but in either case, let’s all PLEASE KEEP RELIGION OUT OF THIS.  References to Lieberman’s faith are no more valid than suggesting Lamont’s victory was due to a Christian conspiracy.  I hope we all on the left are intellegent and restrained enough to realize this - and if we aren’t, we certainly don’t deserve to be in power.

It’s time for Joe to apologize...for accusing Lamont of dirty tricks, for backing the war, for snuggling with the Republicans, for his whiny voice, etc., etc., etc.

Lieberman tried to get what he wanted through the established means of getting it and then, when he lost, he took steps outside of the system he implicitly endorsed by getting involved in that system’s established processes. This is the same mentality that causes people to seize violently what they were too unpopular to seize democratically. I think the name “Sore Loserman” applies to ol’ Joe once again.

Joe,
$15 a month?  What a deal!  My DSL connection is about three times that cost.  And a bandwith of a whole 10GB?  I’de go back to sending hand written letters.
Maybe Joe has taken too many lessons from his republican frinds.
Frankley the whole story ‘smells bad’.

Shame on Lieberman for perpetuating his campaign’s smear of Lamont during his concession speech.

Shame on Joe Lieberman for his lies and hypocrisy.

Shame for claiming that his run as an Independent is for the altruistic purpose of uniting the Democratic Party, a statement that defies logic.

Shame on Joe Lieberman for not supporting the winner of his (former) Party’s primary.

Shame on Joe Lieberman for his years-long adoring support of GOP lies, deception and greed that have nearly destroyed this country.

Shame on Joe Lieberman. Shame, Shame, Shame.

From now on, whenever a website goes down, we need to blame it on an attack by Joe Lieberman.

I doubt this was a dirty trick.  More likely some bad luck by Lieberman’s campaign that they wanted to blame on the man giving them the most pain.

Based on news reports they didn’t just loose there website, they lost their email.  This is more consitent with a hosting problem.  Even a double crosser would not cut off all their email communications on campaign day

I suspect that it is nothing more than a kink in one of those internet tubes.

If nothing else Joe would know about rovian style attacks.
Do I think Joe was responcible for the crash of his 15& a month service? It wouldn’t suprise me but I wish not to make unfounded guesses the only question I have is “In this day and age of computer politics why did the cheap bastard use such a shitty service for such an important race????????”

Lieberman’s Website Shuts Itself Down, Saying It Wants To Stay A Democrat

Joe is a sef serving whinny punk looking to blame ANYONE except himself - excellent BASE to build his REPUBLICAN political career . . . .

This the souls of the women and children of
Lebanon that were murdered by your brothers attacking your website.

If you go to Lieberman’s site right now, there is a message slaming Lamont. I’m confused as to how the Lieberman folks can put up anything if their web hosting is down. 

And, while cheap web hosting companies are legendary for arbtrary unexplanied outages, you’d think that they might make an effort in this case to at least go out to their server farm in the garage and reboot a few things.

“l’email a été totalement perturbés et neutralisé”
par Votez Ned Lamont, U.S. Sénateur, THE DEMOCRATS pour Connecticut ! le 9 août 2006 à 01H44
“Pour les dernières 24 heures (..)l’email a été totalement perturbés et neutralisé”, les amis du Juif Josef Lieberman, United States Sénateur pour Connecticut, disent."Nous croyons que c’est le résultat d’une attaque coordonnée par nos adversaires politiques,” le sioniste Sean Smith, secrétaire de Presse du député Juif Josef Lieberman[THE DEMOCRATS] pour la campagne contre Ned Lamont[United States Sénateur-candidat et aussi THE DEMOCRATS pour Connecticut] a dit.

I worked at onw of those “dirt cheap run your business into the ground with limited bandwidth and terrible customer service” webhosting companies for 3 years and I can tell you that this type outage was a regular occurance. And no, there’s no way this could be a DoS attack. Because when you DoS a domain, it takes down its associated server and all of the other domains pointing to it. For about $20-$40 more, Joe could’ve gotten his own private server. Then and only then would they be able to even tell wether or not his site outage was a concerted attack against his specific domain name.
.
Yet another case of media hype. Wonderful opportunist politicians we have in this country eh?

I have been a huge critic of computer voting. I now call upon Joe Lieberman to come out big-time against computer voting. This one is a no-brainer, Joe. Lamont should too. The Big Microsoft Meltdown will certainly happen just prior to the REAL swine flu pandemic. The words of the prophets are written on

hmmmm ... just wondering, could Liebermans server have been hit by a Katyusha rocket?  :-|

divine intervention against AIPAC?

Look, this is a fast moving story.  You need to at least add what Kos found (below) because as is, your he said she said, above, is terribly misleading and, of course, unsubstantiated.  Why post it without taking to the time to investigate it?

From The Daily Kos:

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2006/8/8/153827/3493

Two posts down it’s clear that Lieberman’s website isn’t suffering from a Denial of Service attack.

But now I have the definitive answer as to why Lieberman’s site went down.

They are paying $15/month for hosting at a place called MyHostCamp, with a bandwidth limit of 10GB. MyHostCamp is currently down, along with all their clients.

Here’s the deal—you get what you pay for. My hosting bill is now over $7K per month. A smaller site doesn’t need that much bandwidth, but if you’re paying $15 because your $12 million campaign is too freakin’ cheap to pay for quality hosting, then don’t go blaming your opponent when your shitty service goes out.

For their part, the Lamont campaign has offered its technical expertise to get Lieberman’s site back up (which could be done in an hour by a competent sysadmin), and has added a link to the googlecached version of Lieberman’s site at the top of their blog.

One side is acting mature, the other is running around making baseless accusations.

I mean, if I found this, couldn’t you?

In my opinion, a more likely explanation for the purported breakdown of the Lieberman website is a Lieberman dirty trick.

By claiming an illegal dirty trick by Lamont, Lieberman hopes to energize his own supporters to rush to the polls to “protect” poor Joe.

With no proof of a cause of the website melt down or who is responsible, Liberman’s campaign manager was very careful not to accuse Lamont of criminal wrong doing. He just wanted to get his dirty trick message out to his troops in a more powerful way than he has been able to do by ordinary methods.

Ugh!!!
