What a Difference Nine Months Makes "I understand that many Democrats...
"...in Connecticut disagree with me and are very angry about the war... What I will say is this: I not only respect your right to disagree or question the President, I value it."

-- Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-CT), 8/06/06

"It is time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge that he will be Commander-in-Chief for three more critical years, and that in matters of war we undermine Presidential credibility at our nation’s peril."

-- Lieberman, 12/6/05

4. I wonder if Limbaugh and O'Reilly are making any comments about
Lieberman's begging and pleading and whining? Or are they busily defending him as are the rest of the Republican Party and the Corporate Lobby and members of the DLC? I guess the rw doesn't want to lose its favorite "Democrat."

8. I'm afraid that Joe's a Jumper
I'm putting on my tin-foil hat here, but with Hannity, Limpballs and O'Reily "concerned" about the "Democrat" Senator from CT, it seems to indicate to me that they have an inside scoop that Joe's going to jump to Republican after the election.

Mark my words. If Dems work our asses off to get the Senate at 51D - 49R, Joe is going to jump. What else could it be? Ask yourself, people of CT, why are Insanity, Limpballs and O'Reily so concerned about Lieberman? Are we now taking advice on what the Democratic Party has to do from hate radio?

Isn't that like the mouse taking advice from the cat on the kitchen escape route?

I hope Lieberman goes down, but if he doesn't, IMHO, he's jumping!

2. I guess he's totally changed his position on those who oppose the war
I mean this couldn't be some sort of cynical election year ploy. Could it?

5. gee, if he'd been saying that all along he probably wouldn't be 24 hours
away from a massive and embarassing primary defeat.

6. Only 36 hours left for Holy Joe and the end
of waffling apologetic shitheads in the Democratic Party.
