Reply #10: Lieberman is sending this message for us.

He now believes that shrub's tax cuts are the greatest thing since the third reich. Was he expressing anger at the fact that Dean has stolen the issue of balancing the budget and fiscal resposibility.. from the DLC? Or is it a growing regret that he did not vote in favor of shrub's budget busting tax cuts?

And of course he again attacked the Gephardt plan, which repeals the shrub tax cut plan in favor of giving workers and companies a 60% tax deduction for what they pay in premiums. Why is this referred to as "old style big government?"

My impression was that the Gephardt plan would have been the type of initiative that the DLC would have once proposed themselves. But that was before the last election, which CHANGED EVERYTHaNG including GOD'S ASS! My best friend is Jewish, and like me votes Democratic. He said to me as we were watching Lieberman's remarks, "no sane Jew that I know will waste time on him."

But then again he is in the reform branch, not the orthodox wing that Lieberman is in. And as he explained to me last night, politically they are light years apart! According to my friend, most orthodox Jews usually vote Republican, not Democratic.
