1. BO kissed it first by backing outta

5. The "new Democrats" first action

was a pronounced move to the Right.

I think we can give up on the idea of anyone in BushCo even being investigated, never mind actually serving a day in jail.

2. Joe is invulnerable....

No one else, NO ONE, could have done what Joe did and retain their committee chairs.

But America's business is Empire and Israel is a vital part of the Imperial Strategy.

Pro-Israel groups rally support for Lieberman

HARTFORD, Conn. --Pro-Israel groups, afraid of losing one of their staunchest supporters in Congress, are pouring money into beleaguered Sen. Joe Lieberman's campaign as he tries to fend off a tougher-than-expected primary challenge.

The three-term lawmaker is struggling to dispatch millionaire businessman Ned Lamont in the Aug. 8 primary. Lamont's fierce criticism of Lieberman's backing of the Iraq war and perceived closeness to President Bush have won him followers among hard-core Democrats.

The primary is Aug. 8 and Lieberman has said he will run as an independent if he loses.

Pro-Israel political action committees have donated to his campaign and have urged their national membership to give generously now and later, if Lieberman is forced to run as an unaffiliated candidate.

"Joe Lieberman, without exception, no conditions ... is the No. 1 pro-Israel advocate and leader in Congress," said Mark Vogel, chairman of the National Action Committee, a pro-Israel political action committee. "There is nobody who does more on behalf of Israel than Joe Lieberman. That is why he is incredibly important to the pro-Israel community."

3. His punishment was the $$$ he gave to the Senate Dems for re-election

some might call that a bribery, but for Joe it was the price of building a bridge back to the Dem caucus that couldn't be burned by the outrage of the Dem base.
