HolyJoe on AP_fc95e.jpg

Dear Associated Press,

Holy Joe Lieberman is a man of many parts.

He is a sleazebag, a warmongering Neocon, a sanctimonious backstabber, "Armageddon" John Hagee's "Zionists bring the Second Coming" Reacharound Buddy, a serial betrayer of the leaders of the Democratic Party, ...and many other things which could not be could not be adequately described given the family nature of your publication.

One thing he emphatically is not is a "Senate Democrat".

Perhaps as they clean out their desks and make their way out the door, one of your many hundreds of newly laid-off reporters could pass along to you that portion of their notes which detail the recent political history of Joesph I. Lieberman wherein he:

  1. Lost the Democratic primary in Connecticut to an actual Democrat.
  2. Formed his own Lieberman Uber Alles Party (Motto: A Smarmy Of One)
  3. Ran against the candidate of the Democratic Party and,
  4. With massive assistance from a cartel of banks, insurance companies, credit card companies and Republicans who now collectively own his quisling ass, managed to win back his former Senate seat.
  5. He also endorsed the Republican candidate for President in 2008 and campaigned for (Mc)same, and was welcomed and applauded as a member of the family at The Grand Ol' Party convention of insane freaks.

Which means, as I said, despite the fact that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and President Barack Obama both still inexplicably seem to want to have his babies, Joesph I. Lieberman is not a Senate Democrat, and is most certainly -- as your strange photographic juxtaposition suggests -- not THE Senate Democrat.

I hope this clears thing up.

Yours in Christ, and crossposted from,

"Perhaps as they clean out their desks and make their way out the door.."

Mmm, that's good satire.

The "yours in Christ" sign off is a hoot too.

4.With massive assistance from a cartel of banks, insurance companies, credit card companies and Republicans who now collectively own his quisling ass, managed to win back his former Senate seat.

And primary assistance and endorsement from...Obama.

She constantly seeks out Lieberman when she needs a "Democratic" reaction.

AP is a joke and a tool of corporate America. They are little more than Fox News lite. That applies especially to Liz Sidori, whose pedantic rantings must have been paid for by the GOP.

And I don't know what "family" AP belongs to but it must be something resembling the Manson Family.

And a Smarmy of One---LOL! Good one!

Is senator lieberman a Veteran? I don't think so but the POS sure acts like one huh? It's basically relatively easy acting like a hard ass when actually being a hard ass is totally different. It seems the Honorable Senator is the former. Standing up for a "principle" is one thing, standing up for your lobbyists seems to me to be quite another thing. But WTF do I know. Peace

While we're correcting the newspeak, could we also stop referring to the Blue Dogs as "moderates"?

Compromise: take the 'D-e-m-o-c' off and just leave the 'rat'. Better yet, stop referring to him as even remotely human.

Why do the Democrats permit Lieberman to caucus with them? Caucus meetings involve sensitive political strategy. How can the Democrats be sure that Lieberman isn't passing their secrets to the Republicans? His actions demonstrate that he regularly does the Republicans' bidding.

he certainly does not represent any Independent constituency that I am aware of.

And not once did you use the word "incompetent" or "failure" when referring to warmonger joe or the AP. good piece of writing.

I actually thought he was Likud. Since Israel is being supported by U.S. tax dollars, someone should ask Joe why he is allowing them to use our money to fund THEIR Universal Health Plan.

If we are going to let them dictate our foreign policy we might as well let them dictate our health care as well.

With "Democrats" like him, who needs Republicans?

He truly disgusts me.

On the Sunday talk shows, he was clearly labeled an Independent. He used to insist on being called an Independent Democrat. This seems to be another one of his self-benefiting shifts. At present time, he perceives it better to call himself an Independent. Next week, who knows?

There are many bad names for the turncoat, traitor, and Asshole Leibo, but a true Democrat isn't one.
