Joe Lieberman just makes me want to barf on my keyboard.

As a democrat and a Jew, to me this Lieberman is nothing but a traitor. He's a traitor to the party and a traitor to the country. He does not stand for truth or peace. Why doesn't he just switch parties, and join all the freaking liars. He's the next Zell Miller. What a worthless scum.

thread on the Greatest Page.

knowing what we now know about this guy, I don't see how/why Gore could have picked the slimeball.

Gore could have endorsed him in 2004. He didn't. He endorsed Dean and campaigned for Kerry.

You're going to have to just let the Gore/Lieberman 2000 go - it isn't 2000 anymore.

edit to add - Of course, you don't have to let it go. You can continue to let it drive you crazy if you like :) .

of the Democratic Party if he wanted their support and money.

:evilgrin:

he was supposed to win Florida. They won Florida but Holy Joe was not for complaining about the theft.

LOL....

I'd love to live nextdoor to him or something, he seems like a nice guy. But I don't care for his politics.

I for the life of me cant believe what every happened to him----someone been slipping stuff in his drinks or what---

this guy has gone off the deep end----your right, he makes me barf ---

Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel, first and foremost! Get the point?

Always and forevermore...

I am a Jewish Democrat as well...and I'm equally baffled/disgusted/angry with his position. I, too, see his actions as a betrayal. I simply can not identify any (positive) motivations for his actions.

ever see that movie - the old version? eerie.

in a kind of twisted way, does that make Bush more honest?

I live in CT. Not only do we have Joe the traitor as Senator. But there has been one and only one President who was born in CT. Guess who?

Oh, well. At least I wasn't born here. I am a native of New York, thank God! I remind myself of that when I get bummed out over this.

When he ran for the 2004 nomination he showed his true colors. I am convinced that he is actually a repub, knowing he couldn't get elected as one he ran as a Dem.
Can't stand to watch him give a speech Oi Vai! He is such a Shmok!

gave him 100% ratings from NARAL, and made him one of the top 10 liberal senators in areas such as gay rights, budget, civil rights, education, labor, etc? I doubt it. With a record like that, why would he switch parties?

supporting a killing spree in which hundreds of thousands of innocent people have been killed, and which puts our country in greater danger, all for the sake of oil profits... that sort of trumps the civil rights support he's had over the years. just my opinion. anyone who can support this administration and this war is either insane, an idiot, or a greedy liar.

I absolutely do not support his position on Iraq. However, all of these tedious, bullshit posts about his being like Zell Miller or he should just switch parties is beyond tiresome. I swear DU opinions on politicians (our own) is like the Oklahoma weather, wait five minutes, it is bound to change! The other thing I am sick of his the bullshit about his religion. He is not a dual citizen of Israel, but because he is a Jew, it is accepted as truth. I have looked it up and he doesn't have a dual citizenship, but does have an Israeli mother. Anytime a Jew pisses off the democrats, they must be working for the Israeli government or place Israeli interests above those of the US. :eyes:

While I support action against Lieberman's Iraq stance, the bullshit about his loyalties (to the US and the Democratic party) need to stop!

the guy is a shonda! (abomination!)

Some commentator said he's getting old and hasn't much future in the Dem Party. Seems he spoke out loud and nastily about Bill Clinton during the Monica debacle so Hillary wouldn't give him any position should she get elected. He's got Zell's problem--his own party doesn't recognize his superiority anymore. Also, he'd been trying to get the US to invade Iraq for years on Israel's behalf, having dual citizenship himself.

By removing Saddam, Joe has helped Israel. And Israel is our ally
so it helps us too. I may not agree with his position on Iraq war,
but I can uderstand why he did it. And so did Kerry, Edwards, Hillary
and other dems who voted for the IWR. Just that they have flip-flopped
based on polls and joe is sticking to his beliefs.

BUT THE MAIN REASON I DO NOT HATE JOE IS HE VOTES ON PRO-DEM POSITIONS
ON ALL OTHER ISSUES.

I don't care if he's Jewish, Christian, Moslem, Confucian, or purple-polka-dotted giraffe. When politicians wear their faith and religion on their sleeves, as Lieberman frequently does, it makes me jumpy. Be as religious as you want in Temple, Church, Mosque or in the privacy of your own home --- that's where it belongs. Keep it out of politics. Its bad enough we have to put up with the unelected Falwells, Robertsons, etal. I don't want to have to hear about religion & faith from elected public officials, who get paid by ALL of us, regardless of our religion. I particularly don't want to hear about it from the politicians who want to continue this war.

and welcome to DU.

Can you imagine what would be said if he had dual citizenship with Mexico, and voted for Mexico's interest over American interest?

population, I believe Joe would have acted on behalf of Mexico.

welcome to DU.

Pomeroy to Howard Dean:Shut up
http://www.bismarcktribune.com/articles/2005/12/09/news/state/106702.prt

WASHINGTON - North Dakota Rep. Earl Pomeroy is accusing Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean of overstepping his bounds, saying the former presidential candidate should not give up on the war in Iraq.

On Monday, Dean likened the war in Iraq to Vietnam and said, "The idea that the United States is going to win the war in Iraq is just plain wrong."

"My words to Howard Dean are simple - shut up," Pomeroy told WDAY Radio in North Dakota on Thursday.

now that would have an impact.

That would DEFINITELY help republicans win!
:)

if he thinks that "war" can be "won".

He knows nothing about history, geopolitics or human nature.

This war is lost. The only thing to do now is to return to the UN and beg them to help us establish an Iraqi army and police force. If the UN agrees, then we need to scale back and let the UN take the lead. The war, illegal to begin with, cannot be won at this juncture.

Very frustrating when he sticks up for the war and sides with the Repukes...then BushCo cites him as a model Dem. ARG!!!

but then I'd have to reach into bunkerboy's ass because he has his head so far up bunkerboy's asshole that holyjoes feet are past his colon!

Jews and Dems alike.
