Lieberman is after Dean and the Deaniacs for 2004 defeat.

[thunder rising]

It just makes perfect sense.
Dean beat Lieberman and Gephardt (sp ... ahhh who cares) and lost to Edwards and Kerry.

It's 2004 all over again literally with lives in the balance.
He wants to see if the Deaniacs are still out there and Dean can rally the troops. Why else would Dean be kicked to the curb after handing the Presidential election and Congressional majorities except the placate that worm?

Lieberman is incapable of attracting positive attention so he's getting the only attention he knows how to garner. That's why he lost his race then and why he's an asshat now. Lieberman doesn't get that he is as acceptable for President as Palin is, ahhh well, for anything. Lieberman didn't lose because of Dean, he lost because of who he is; yet, in his mind, if it weren't for Dean he would be king.

I think this is it. Let's fkn nail that Lieberman POS.
This is the call to action. Kill the bill and go to reconciliation.

I was looking for a thread on the old Democracy for America site that had an evolving story of:
"Dean says Something" and the media immediately twisted it, Gephardt now says something too, and (I think) Lieberman is stated as being against it ... it was a hoot, but even then Lieberman was a soulless worm and everybody but him knew it.

1. Disagree.

This Lieberman shit has nothing to do with a grudge
against Dean, and it has everything to do with
ties to big corporate interests and war funding.

10. Joe hates and the object of that hatred is Dean. You can't cause the death and misery on this scale

without hate. Dean kept him from being king and then had the audacity to oppose his desperate independent run for his Senate seat.

2. Lieberman campaigned against Obama in the GE

it's not all about you

[thunder rising]

8. I have to disagree. The is attack on HRC is specifically targeted at Howard. I'm thinking that is

the reason Howard got called back into action. And, notice Howard responded in his usual level headed but direct manner; kill the bill.

3. Li(b)erman is an AIPAC pawn.

And AIPAC has more influence over the Congress than any President.

5. why would AIPAC not want

health care reform? israel has single payer.

[Sebastian Doyle]

11. It's not really about health care as far as AIPAC is concerned

It's about "breaking" Obama to give the NuttyYahoo regime an advantage.

4. Is it possible that Lieberman is just an all purpose shit?

:shrug:

[thunder rising]

9. Well obviously yes, but this is over the top even for Lieberman. He's got to hate to do this

and in his mind Dean kept him from reaching the brass ring.

6. Lieberman is faithfully representing the constituents who elected him.

The insurance cartels in Hartford, CT.

7. DLC has always detested progressives

It didn't just start in '04.
