Does Lieberman not have a day job?
Isn't he supposed to be like the senator from my state? (don't hold that against me)
He's in California, for a McCain rally...

13. I thought that too, but he has said NO to that, decisively.
SECDEF, maybe? Or an ambassadorial slot?

2. maybe we should pass a law
that docks their pay for every missed vote - unless they have a doctor's excuse or some family emergency. It's not like the rest of us get to show up for work whenever we feel like it.

3. He's been following McCain all around the Country. .
People from Connecticut ought to be ticked off. (Although there's no guarantee that he'd be doing them any good, were he in Washington voting)

9. agree with your last point 100%

perhaps he's doing CT, and the nation, a favor
who knows what nonsense he might propose, if he was in the senate

5. Why don't you guys have a recall election?
I mean, at this point, you have so many legit reasons to do it.

12. You would have to amend the US Constituion.
States don't set the rules for how Senators are elected like they do for Governors.

15. It's because Governor is a state post, and subject to state election laws.
A Senator is a federal post, and therefore governed by federal election laws, which don't provide for recall elections.

7. He has been in every TV clip of McCain that I watched the

last few days.

I'm sorry he is your senator. He is revolting. He stands directly McCain
clapping and pumping his fist at all of McCain's drivel.

8. He's absent due to sickness, I think
Maybe has a case of that anal poisoning the Lush Dimbaugh was talking about yesterday. Caught it from McCain.

10. His official job description is "fucking over Democrats"
I'm surprised he's not stumping for Obama, though, given that Obama stumped for him.
