How about a Cabinet post for Lieberman?
Something nice and harmless.

Or a nice Ambassadorship... far, far away?

A reward for his service to the Dems.

4. The appropriate reward for his service to the Dems
would be a giant kick in the ass and a bus ticket to Palookaville.

5. I thought it made sense to give him Homeland Security - no kidding
If he were to head Homeland Security Obama could keep his thumb on the asshole. Also, the transition would make sense if you consider that Lieberman has been the Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee for the last 2 years. Keep him in there until he so much as farted in the wrong direction, just did anything wrong at all, and then shit-can him.

20. Actually that would be a brilliant idea.
If he is so damn good at his position as the chairman of the committee, he can handle being the director. If not, it will show everyone he has no confidence in his abilities.

He really should go away.

I pity Connecticut, they only have one Senator.

14. How about just leaving his ass right where it is and forcing him to vote Dem for a change?
He owes us quite a few chits and I'll expect those in charge to be calling them in regularly.
