Comparing Lieberman's raised voice to Mc.Kinney's raised fist.

I'm calling out all the Lieberman haters out there. You know who you are. I'll get right to the point. About a week ago, Joe Lieberman was on the Colin Mc.Enroe show out of Hartford. Mc.Enroe asked Lieberman about the liberal websites going after him about the war. Lieberman raised his voice a little, and was a little upset that he was being picked on. The next day, some members of DU, Buzzflash, and Daily Kos wrote that Lieberman had "lost it" You also said that he was "feeling the heat", and "whining and bitching". He was doing no such thing, but that didn't stop the Lieberman haters from reporting it as fact.

Yesterday, Congresswomen Cynthia Mc.Kinney struck a cop after an altercation. The cop went after Mc.Kinney when he failed to recognize her, and she didn't walk through a detector, like your supposed to do. The cop is planning on pressing charges. When this story appeared on the web, I went looking for it in DU, just to see if anyone would pick up on it, NOTHING!!! So I decided to wait about 24 hours to see if anyone had blogged about it, again, NOTHING!!!

Why is it that your willing to talk about Lieberman raising his voice, yet don't want to talk about Mc.Kinney punching a cop? It strikes me as totally hypocritical to some in here and on other sites, that your willing to trash Lieberman for the slightest transgression, yet say nothing about Mc.Kinney assaulting a cop? You Lieberman haters out there are like Fox news when it comes to Lieberman, unfair and not balanced.

:kick:

.... 2 threads about this incident. Perhaps you should learn to use the search feature.

For raising his voice.

That we like Democrats who fight for the working class more than we like Republicans Lite who endorse illegal invasions and kiss the perpetrator of that war? Color me shocked. I thought this was Sycophants Underground, but no! It's Democratic Underground. Holy smokes, I have to un-register my handle and skedaddle!

I still do not recognize Lieberman as a Democrat but did not add to any Lieberman bashing type threads.

You mischaracterize the McKinney Incident. It's been fully addressed - time to stick a fork in it all?

If I read my police blotter right, punching a cop is definitely assualt. it might not be where you come from, but here in the US, it is.

if you don't like being called on your bullshit then shut the fuck up.

being grabbed from behind and jerked around you naturally react to that before you even
know who it is so again characterizing this as "punching a cop" is just a bullshit meme
you are pushing for obvious reasons.

My my my, call it what you will, but what Mc.Kinney did is what we call in the USA ASSAULT!!!

Lieberman..I cannot stand Lieberman and his bush loving self...but I'm sure that there are some threads here about the Mc Kinney thing, but not knowing all the story can't make a comment on that.

Not exactly "NOTHING!!!"

You are just another one of them goddamn liberals with all your namby pamby facts and shit. Why do you hate America?

side she stands on...She was one of the first people to come out and say that 9/11 could have been prevented....I don't agree with everything she does but at least she takes a stand for the American people most of the time. The Repugs have always gone after her....unlike Lieberman..

Lieberman wants to be a Rethuglican so good riddance...

nutcase how? for asking hard questions?

frustration and maybe to give you a big ole happy face, just remember, you and I do not belong to any organized political party...hell, we're democrats ;-)

There are tons of threads on McKinney.
