Joe Lieberman Deals With The Pain Of Rejection
By JIM SHEA
September 28, 2008
1 2 next Sen. Joe Lieberman shuffles into the Chicago office of advice columnist Amy Dickinson (Ask Amy) looking disheveled and downcast. He takes a seat, and lets out a sigh.

Lieberman: Thank you for seeing me. Is this OK, or should I be lying down on the couch over there?

Amy: Whichever you prefer, Senator. I'm as new at this as you are. People usually just e-mail or write me.

Lieberman: I'm sorry. I've been going through hell the past three weeks, and I didn't know where else to turn.



Amy: What seems to be the problem, Senator?

Lieberman: Well, I've been rejected by someone I care about a great deal, who obviously doesn't even know I exist anymore.

Amy: My goodness. Are you talking about your wife, Senator?

Lieberman: No, I'm talking about John.

Amy: John?

Lieberman: McCain, Sen. John McCain, the big man, the big war hero.

Amy: Oh. You sound a little bitter.

Lieberman: Bitter? Why would I be bitter? I gave up my political life for that man. And then she came along.

1. He should've anticipated the pain of rejection

Ever since he ran for President in 2004 and a very unpopular platform and later endorsing Bush.

2. I hope he gets the heartbreak of psoriasis too. n/t

9. Ah, yes

I started that pic and almost finished it, but I'm drawing a blank right now on how to finish it. I mean, the image is done, but I cannot find my list of reptilian quotes by McLizard at the moment. :D

10. Here's a few...

“Remember the words of Chairman Mao: 'It's always darkest before it's totally black.'.”

“Only the most deluded of us could doubt the necessity of this war.”

“Katrina did not declare a truce on Iraq.”


"There’s been great progress economically over that period of time (since Bush took office)."
