Unreal. Lieberman on the Senate floor berating everyone for not
starting war with Iran, and how dangerous they are to us. I think the man has truly flipped his lid.

1. Can Connecticut voters ask for a do-over?
What a prick he is.

10. I'm just hoping we pick up at least a few seats in the Senate
so we can officially boot his ass out of the party.

21. Lieberman ran a very deceptive campaign
After he lost the primary, for the next 3 months, he claimed, "Nobody wants to end the war more than me!" His focus before the primary was that he had delivered for Connecticut, so please let him ride on Iraq because it's only one issue out of many.

Unfortunately, after the media was pretty friendly to Lamont before the primary, they rolled over for Lieberman after that and didn't challenge many of his lies until it was too late.

25. And he was elected by REPUBLICANS who chose NOT to vote for "their" candidate
Had the republicans put forth a "real" candidate, Joementum would be retired:(

28. No, Republican votes alone didn't elect him. He won the Indie vote and about 30% of Dems
for one thing Lamont ran a not-too-great general election campaign.

33. If most people didn't pay too much attention
and then heard the media touting the Lieberman line that "Nobody wants to end the war more than me" - they could very easily have been deceived.

send him to Lieberman's office too.

5. He should just go over to Iran
and challange Akmadinajad mano-y-mano. Holy Joe would no dobt get his ass whooped, but at least maybe it would shut him the hell up.

Edited on Wed Jul-11-07 11:56 AM by Cleita
retire him. Maybe it's time to bring Lamont back to run in the next term. Even in Joe runs against him again as an independent, he probably will not get the votes this time around.

15. We need to call
Harry Reid and DEMAND he strip LIEberman from heading the committee he heads up-whichever one it is-maybe somebody can tell me which one it is. Screw him and his anti-American, pro-Israel, and GOP-financed only agenda. I've had it with this guy and will start a thread with numbers and E-mail addresses to get this going.
