3. Lieberman & Miller sitting in a tree......
These guys should just switch parties. They have no place in the Democratic party what so ever. Especially Miller, he's the biggest walking piece of shit in the country, next to the smirking chimp that is.

6. Lieberman and Miller
If keeping these two in the Democratic Party means getting control of the Senate, keep them both.

12. Welcome onboard NukeProf!
As much as it grates me to say it, I agree. Lieberman (D-Israel) and Miller (D-Testable) are worth holding onto for that reason only. Hopefully, the Democrats in their states will run candidates in the next primaries that will support a Democratic agenda.

7. You know what was worse than what he said?
Edited on Sun Aug-01-04 12:07 PM by chimpsrsmarter
They way he kept nodding his head in agreement when Sen. McConnell was talking.

8. We need to make sure "Joementum" has opposition in the
primary. I bet he could be beaten with a little effort.

10. I believe that Lieberman's conservatism
is in large part to blame for Gore's poor electoral showing in '00. His presence on the ticket is one of the factors that drove the left to vote Green or stay home that year. A more liberal VP nominee could have made Gore's slim margin of victory more decisive, and nullified Jeb's voter-purge shenannegans as a deciding factor.

11. what's worse...
Is that he distanced himself from Kerry's plan for withdrawing our troops from Iraq (bringing in other forces) and supported Bush's plan to train the Iraqi army and security forces in order to reduce our troop strength.

Of course it'll take both, but Lieberman completely disregarded Kerry's approach. Just nauseating.

13. Blitzer did this on purpose...
Mitch McConnell goes on a diatribe about how shameful it is that anyone would accuse the pRetzeldent of using national security and/or the Iraq war for political purposes. Lieberman then chimes in and agrees wholeheartedly.

Next, Howard Dean affirms that Bush is INDEED using national security for political purposes. (Of course Blitzer says, "That's a very serious charge you're making there." ...says it twice & Dean throws it back in his face, Hah!). Nevertheless...

Blitzer then has Racicot on who chides Dean for saysing such a thing and then reminds the audience of what Joe Lieberman had said in agreeing with McConnel.

You know DAMNED well Blitzer set this up for just such a thing to happen. Blitzer ALWAYS gets a Rethug on along with any Senator or Representative who is just shy of being left of Zell Miller to counter the Pug!

How blatantly obvious can Blitzer get? DISGUSTING. Our fate is in the hands of Right-Wing Medai Whores. Heaven help us!
