Democrats should remove Lieberman from his chairmanship. He has done everything to

[still_one]

sabotage HCR, and now makes the inane statement that Democrats need to move to the center?#@!#$%^%$#$##

Who in the hell does that SOB think he is?

I have no doubt the Democratic leadership will NOT remove him from his chairmanship, and we will continue to pay the price

If the Democrats move more to the right, then there will even be less to distinguish the Democrats from the republicans, and that will only hurt Democrats

1. He is not the 60th vote anymore. He is irrelevant.

That must be his worst nightmare. He can become a rethuglican and be their 42nd vote of NO. Still irrelevant.

You don't matter anymore, Joe Schmoe.

2. That is even more reason to remove him from his charimanship /nt

[MineralMan]

3. Agreed. Joe's Gotta Go!

4. It doesn't seem to matter much any more, not that it ever really did.

At least now there can be no pretense of 60 filibusterproof votes in the Senate. That was always a sham.

Invite Lieberman to cross the aisle to the Republicans where he belongs.

5. And demote the DLC's MVP?

Who would we blame for "forcing" us to move rightward if we started going against the Liebermans, Landrieus, Nelsons, and Baucus's of the world?

6. That would require a spine...

and we lack spine.

7. "...Who in the hell does that SOB think he is?..."

He's in charge.. in the catbird seat.. the one with the megaphone..

Why does he think that?

because he has gotten everything he asked for.

dems counted on him being a team player, but he wants to be captain of the team..and we let him.

Oddly though, his power has just been diminished now..and will get weaker as we lose Reid, Lincoln, Nelson, and a few other senate seats in November..

When he's not the "must-have" vote, he's just another schlub..

[wisteria]

8. I think his time has come to be put in his place. n/t

9. Don't rely on emails they get sent to a spam account.

Write letter after letter after letter and call call call to have him removed. You are 100% correct he never did much good anyway, but we sure as Hades don't need him now. And I bet he is messing his shorts because he knows it. He'll shut up pretty quick now. And I bet he moves to caucus with the republicans.
