As if there weren't reason enough to despise Lieberman -- there are more:

Have you all seen this about Bush's favorite "Democrat"? :grr:

Paul Bass from the Hartford Courant:

"... I had remembered that, out of the eye of voters back home, Lieberman developed working alliances with the most hypocritical and dangerous right-wingnuts like Ralph Reed and Charles Murray and Bill Bennett. But I had forgotten just how extensive a record he had accumulated.

I had forgotten how he played the leading role in 1993 to thwart Democrats who tried to close loopholes allowing companies to cook the books on millions of dollars of stock options. Thus began the regulatory abandonment that spawned Enron and its sibling rip-offs.

I had forgotten how that same year, Lieberman joined with Republican Sen. Alphonse M. D'Amato of New York and against Democrats to "work the cloakrooms" of the Senate, in the words of a news account, to "line up unanimous support so that a tax break eagerly sought by the real estate industry could be passed without senators having to vote on the record."

How many Connecticut Democrats remember that their senator was one of only two Democrats who voted with Republicans in 1995 to kill a lobbyist-gift ban? Or that he called affirmative action "un-American?" Or that in August 1994 he voted in favor of a proposal by Republican Jesse Helms to cut off all federal money from schools that offer counseling to suicidal gay teens by referring them to gay support groups or in any way suggesting it's OK to be gay?"

ironic, ain't it?

Sleep tight knowing who's in charge.

You just can't see it like I do!

"On the even more fractious liberal side of the blogosphere, Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn., is under an election-year assault by a blog-backed Democratic challenger, Ned Lamont. Lieberman, the party's vice presidential nominee in 2004, has lost favor among many liberals for his support of the White House's position on issues such as the Iraq war. The calls for his ouster began in earnest after President Bush planted an affectionate kiss on Lieberman's cheek after the 2005 State of the Union speech.

Backed by the blogs, Lamont has forced the incumbent into a messy primary battle. In May, Lamont won the support of a third of the delegates at the state Democratic convention -- far more than anyone expected the political newcomer to capture.

"I think blogs are just becoming part of the landscape, in an establishment sense," Moulitsas said. "They're not cutting-edge anymore. They're not edgy. ... All blogging is, is a tool."

They make me want to spit nails.
