"I think if anyone complains about Jack Kemp coming in on my behalf, it just shows that they're still blinded by the old partisan politics," he said. "Jack's a devoted Republican, I'm a devoted Democrat, but we agree on a lot of stuff."


WHY DOES ANYONE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SUPPORT THIS A-HOLE?

[bowens43]

1. Joe's a devoted self-serving asshole.

[VolcanoJen]

2. Joe's a Devoted Joe Lieberman Fan.

That's where his allegiances begin, and end.

[Tom Joad]

3. It ain't partisan to oppose a war of aggression. Just common sense.

[Tom Joad]

6. ain't it ironic that this man who attacked Nader for exercising his

rights to run in the 2000 election is now running outside the two-party system himself on a pro-war platform?
And can't you say the same thing about Gore... Gore chose this POS as his vp candidate.

[AX10]

4. Lieberman is a self-serving ass. He is more than willing to

let three of our five house seats stay in Repub hands just so he can have another term in the Senate (and so his wife can keep her cushy job as a lobbyist).

5. Noahmijo says Joe has reached the status of cockroach

[Skidmore]

8. I concur. Now let's just hope that CT voters see him in his true form

on election day.

12. Cockroaches are actually...

not that egotistical.

[noahmijo]

15. You have obviously never seen Starship Troopers

It will only be then that you will develop "The thousand yard stare" with cockroaches.


I guess I should say that Joe is an "unevolved" cockroach instead :)

[Skidmore]

19. When the world as we know it ends, there will be cockroaches and

Lieberman. He's fully evolved and just begging for a can of "RAID"!

[Cassandra]

20. No...

just the occasional close encounter with the real thing.

[noahmijo]

21. Do you stomp it while pledging alligience to The Federation?

If not, you're a traitor who hates America and the authorities will be visiting you shortly to ensure you possess citizenship.

[Cassandra]

22. The regular ones...

I take care of with a piece of paper towel. The 3 inch ones I hit with a fly swatter or shoe while yelling, "SHIT!".

[marmar]

7. What a worthless piece of detritus Lieberman is...

I bet Al Gore just wants to take a shower for ever choosing him as a running mate.

[asthmaticeog]

9. When you agree on a lot of stuff with a devoted Republican

it might be a red flag that YOU ARE ONE, JOE. :banghead:

[ixion]

10. ah, the 'old politics', much like Rummy's 'old Europe', no doubt

these neocons, whatever stripe they may claim to be, are really not attached to reality. :crazy:

[Atman]

11. You may be devoted to being in the D column, but you ain't a DEVOTED D!

You're a fucking arrogant prick, just like your kissy-face friend.

[sandnsea]

13. I disagree with the both of them

That's the whole point Joe. We want you to go away, with or without Jack Kemp.

[datadiva]

14. Joe's a devoted ass kisser

I'm just wondering how he gets his body to bend around that far!

[Ino]

16. I'm not complaining about it

It just exposes his soft white Repug underbelly.

[Ioo]

17. No - I am a Dem, I support Dems - How Hard is this?

Joe, you are a moron

[madmusic]

18. Here it is, folks, partisan politics:

How Newt Gingrich used these techniques

This example occurred more than ten years ago, but it is one of the most striking applications of propaganda techniques in recent memory. A popular Republican politician on his way to the top, Newt Gingrich clearly understood the power of propaganda. His political action committee (GOPAC) mailed a pamphlet entitled Language, A Key Mechanism of Control to Republicans across the country. The booklet offered rhetorical advice to Republican candidates who wanted to "speak like Newt." It was subsequently awarded a Doublespeak Award by the National Conference of Teachers of English in 1990.

The booklet contained two lists of words. GOP candidates were instructed to use one set of "positive, governing words," (glittering generalities) when speaking about themselves. A second set of negative words (name-calling words) were to be used against their opponents.

View the glittering generalities.

View the name-calling words.

23. How can he be a devoted Democrat when he's running against the Democratic

nominee? :shrug:
