[billyoc]

30. lieman has been getting away with

shite for so long..I have to pinch myself on this one.

[AspenRose]

3. I sure as hell hope so!

[pleah]

4. Good! He deserves a

:spank:

[backscatter712]

5. About fucking time.

We no longer need Lieberman to get a majority, so now we can safely tell him to suck it!

[Barack_America]

6. Thanks for the heads up! Need to get a bottle of champagne in the fridge!

:woohoo:

7. Make Joe choose a caucus

Strip him of any comittee assignments and chairmanships.

That way he can't claim he was tossed out - he just won't be a position to do or know much of anything.

Of course - in the alternative - he can go over and continue to break bread with his new buds on the wrong side of history.

8. and to think u guys want to get rid of him

before him and nancy have even had a chance to change their ways under president obama...

people should really wait to start calling for heads...

they had valid excuses , but they wont have them anymore once obama takes office...

if they are still lame and do nothing... THEN its time to make a stank

[Hutzpa]

34. Totally agreed

38. Bullshit.

Nancy had no valid excuse to cast away the biggest lever congress has over a sitting administration. There is no valid excuse to take impeachment off the table so publicly.

10. And the house cleaning finally begins...

And the house cleaning finally begins... :)

[Triana]

11. GOOD! Toss him OUT of the party too! n/t

[americanstranger]

22. That's done already.

He belongs to the CT for Lieberman party - AKA the 'Joe For Joe' party, or the 'Party Of One.'

- as

[RiverStone]

26. 2nd or 3rd that --- no need for Joe here anymore!

[corkhead]

12. Good, let him serve the rest of his final term with no seniority and in obscurity

[redqueen]

13. *does happy dance*

:woohoo:

[Tatiana]

14. Give 'em hell, Harry?

Color me pleasantly surprised!

[formercia]

15. Joe Nobody

Junior Senator from Connecticut.


I hope he gets a shitty office.

[spanone]

16. it's way past time

[loyalkydem]

17. He

got what he deserved, bastard. Glad he did

[BurtWorm]

18. Chair*s*?!

I didn't realize he had more than one committee! :wtf:

[The Backlash Cometh]

19. So, if Reid finally does this...

how many days, weeks or months should we give him, free of criticism?

[brazos121200]

20. It's easier to have a backbone when you have 57 or 58

votes in the Senate than when you have only 51, or so it would seem.

[seabeyond]

37. the amazing thing is how many people on du expect the impossible. even this will hurt

the dems. they still dont have enough in senate. but reid at this point was willing to take the step.

[Raineyb]

39. I don't think making the Republicans go on the floor and filibuster

a bill they don't like instead of retracting in the face of a filibuster threat is asking the impossible.

[Akoto]

21. Is our powder not dry anymore?!

[Jennicut]

23. It is a happy day here in CT to hear that, now we will work on kicking him out in 2012

[rvablue]

24. Bye, Bye Traitorman....it makes me want to hurl that I ever voted for this man as VP

but live and learn and the lesson is now learned and will NEVER be forgotten.

WHAT. A. FUCKING. TRAITOR.

Reid is taking care of step one and I have full faith that the people of CT will take care of step two.

[Window]

25. It's about damned time.

[FemaleDemfromMass]

27. Would you know if

Joe Lieberman made a speech yesterday? My husband thought he read that on CNN.

[StreetKnowledge]

28. Good!

Joe, Not helping us if you disagree with the guy is fine. Working for the other side is a different matter, you backstabber. Reid is gonna rip you away from your positions, and if you want some power, you better hope the Republicans will respect a turncoat. Good luck with that. You're finished, Joe.

[City Lights]

29. How does it feel to have screwed yourself, Joe?

:rofl:

Buh-bye!

[budkin]

31. JOEMENTUM!!!

[Colobo]

32. Fuck you, Joe!

[Hutzpa]

33. He should be placed

on a stock so we can throw shit at his face.

Thank you Reid, this asswipe has been holding us
hostage for too fuckin long, about time.

Two things, will never forgive him for

1) What he did to Gore in 2000 election and

2) Campaign and giving that awful speech at the
RNC convention.


Bite you in the ass..... Good riddance

[NewJeffCT]

35. Connecticut Democrats are still looking to censure him as well

Could be a vote on it in December here in CT.

[nutshell2002]

36. I'll believe it when I see it
