2. Get real! Why did you elect him? Joey isn't going anywhere.

3. Looks like Joe is a senator without a party.

Term Limits would make certain things like this do NOT happen.

4. Thank you, Dems!

The senator's saber rattling has also drawn sharp criticism from other Democrats who oppose the Iraq war.

Lamont said Monday on Air America Radio that Lieberman was "to the right of the mainstream of the Republican Party" when it comes to Iran.

"If anything has come out that's slightly positive of this Bush administration in the last few months it's that they have now had some beginnings of conversations with the Iranians. And this is just what Joe Lieberman is trying to squash. It's really unfortunate," Lamont said.

Retired Gen. Wesley Clark urged Lieberman Monday to stop advocating a military strike against Iran, saying it is "highly irresponsible and counterproductive."

"Sen. Lieberman's saber rattling does nothing to help dissuade Iran from aiding Shia militias in Iraq, or trying to obtain nuclear capabilities," said Clark, who in 2004 was one of Lieberman's rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination. "This kind of rhetoric is irresponsible and only plays into the hands of President Ahmadinejad, and those who seek an excuse for military action."

6. So? Bush doesn't care either.

Lieberman lied to the people of Connecticut. It's still good to see people coming to their senses!

9. He really should be RECALLED

I don't know if that's possible, but there's a serious breach of ethics that Lieberman's committed.

13. Not sure that they can, unfortunately...

That was debated for decades upon decades, but only the states have the ability to recall. What's sad is that the people of CT were flat out lied to by this guy so he could slither his way back into office, and now he's supposed to be in for another 5 years, unless they can hold him accountable to the point that he resigns. I knew there was trouble when Limbarf and Hannity both endorsed him last year...I started to really dislike LIEberman at that point. He's transformed into quite the rogue character in the last few years, and it's an embarrassment to the people of Connecticut.

[NoPasaran]
