The Worst Blog in the World gets it all wrong again. First:
They’re baaaaaaaaaack.
The pro-Joe Lieberman, anti-Ned Lamont protestors that Mr. Lamont’s supporters dubbed the “LieberKidz.”
No they're not, they're called LieberYouth. Look it up. I've never heard them called anything else, and I doubt Confessore has either, but it probably has overtones of (well deserved) jack booted thuggery he isn't comfortable with so he just decided to ...er...get creative. Well, he's no stranger to that.
He then goes on to ignore the fact that these people are "volunteers" only in Joe's mind. Remember how Cheaterman listed "paid volunteers" when they were trying to defend their "petty" cash expenditures that were quite nearly 10% of all the money spent on the primary campaign? It's like that sad bastard talking about the hooker who really loves him and wouldn't be charging him at all except for the fact that her pimp makes her do it.
If you have to pay for it, Nick, it ain't love.

Ouch, you nailed it, Jane.
Darth Vader on ABC says the terrorists were inspired by the Lamot primary victory.
Forgive me Lord, but I hate those guys…
LieberKidz? That’s a new one on me.
What’s up T, say hi to my folks for me. They live in Stamford.
But, on the plus side, just like during the primary, on the day that counts all these paid thugs are going to take their money and run without doing a damn thing…
Twisted Martini @ 6
Absolutely. Mr. and Mrs. Martini?
I’m hiding out back in my hotel room for a bit. I needed a break from all the excitement.
Lieberkidz returns 123 Google hits, Lieberyouth returns 804.
The Nuclear documents that were online that they are showing on ABC are NOT in Arabic.
AMEN Jane…what is happening with Lieberman is nothing short of desperate, disgusting, dishonerable, delusional.
I already sent them NedCards, along with my brothers and their wives.
TRex, what ever did happen to you at the last Joe appearance? One minute you’re with me, and suddenly you’re gone!
I got some great video before I was ejected. And the earlier appearance has what I’m hoping will be video gold!
This is just a quick hit ‘n run while my camcorder is dumping the video to my PC, but there’ll be some fun vids online later tonight.
Plus, there’s a cute picture of Spazeboy and me with the Kiss float at Ned’s Bristol, CT appearance. Ned is looking good going into the final stretch.
Beer money for piggo frat boys. As if they needed it.
Hi TRex! How’s the room service?
Valley Girl @ 16
Bwah-haaaa-haaaaa!!
There’s vending machines on the first floor, but I think that’s the full extent of the room service in this particular hotel. Ned TFK and I like it here. HUGE bathroom.
If I wasn’t going to lay down for a minute, I would definitely be running myself a bath.

Okay, kids, Papa TRex is conking out for an hour or so. Just resting my eyes. Don’t trash the place before I get back. I told the neighbors to call me if y’all get too rowdy.
TRex - can’t wait to hear more about your adventure being thrown out of Joe’s event. And I’m waiting with bated breath for Conn Bob’s videos.
Is the mood more upbeat? I know people are exhausted but they must feel exhilarated going into the final stretch.
Hope you are going to meet up with the rest of the FDL gang tomorrow night.
TRex @ 23
Q: How many hotel rooms does a 60 ftherapod need to lie down?
The Babbling Brooks actually said on the NewsHour that what is really hurting Republicans is them being called rubberstamps. Of course, he goes on to say that the blogs have had little or no role in the elections. Typically, contradictory.
H O L Y…. S P I T! I go off-line for 36 hours & the whole freaking sky falls on the republic party. Talk about your take-out-the-trash Fridays……….can’t remember when I’ve had more fun playing catch-up. Maybe I’ve died & gone to heaven :-)))))
Word is Al Qaeda just endorsed Myron Peskwennis for Alderman in Ward 4 in Nashua NH.
His challenger is very happy about this.

Well, the proverbial writing must be on the wall. The neo-cons are cutting loose and gutting George W. Bush on Iraq. Richard Perle has boldy cut and run on the drunken monkey in the latest Vanity Fair.
There is a growing stampede of former lackeys who are tossing Chimpy under the bus.
Bush is going to make one hell of a bitter lame duck.

Had enough of the worst president ever.
If someone mentioned this earlier, I missed it; Andrea Mitchell was repeatedly calling Ned “NICK” Lamont on MSNBC this morning.
maybe some of us should email Dan Abrams and tell him to tell her to do better research?
dabrams@msnbc.com
Speaking of Moh-rons.
I thought I heard around primary time that CT bloggers had started using LieberKidz because of exactly those Nazi associations. Yes, it ruins the joke, but it also avoids fake controversy and skirts around Godwin’s Law, so… take your pick.
The real issues are that they’re paid, and they’re obnoxious. They can call them the Vienna Boys Choir if they like.

1,322 DAYZ AND THE KILLIN’ GOEZ ON AND ON AND…
Citizen Hamsher and Firepup Patriots:
In one of the great ironies of history, the re-emergence of the “Lieberyouth” gives us another good look at the full-grown fascist movement advancing on our democracy. Let’s consider: the growing eliminationist rhetoric megaphoned and legitimized through the corporate media, the coordinated use of federal and local police (Secret Service and local folks)to control and intimidate protesters, the mobilization of white religious populations to shout down democratic conversation and , of course, the “enabeling legislation” of the Patriot Act to define legitimate political opposition as treason.
I know that I have hammered this drum for so long that most folks must think there is an echo in the room but it is time for everyone to start usin’ the “F” word (”fascism”) to define every single Republican and fellow traveler includin’ the corporatist Democrats startin’ with Mrs. Clinton.
This November 7 could very well mirror the 1932 election that brought the end of the Wiemar Republic.
No matter what the outcome this Tuesday, we must advance as a united anti-fascist opposition. Left-wing populism must advance out of the Midwest and west behind the new Democratic elected representatives…state and federal. The evolution of a new politics must be cultivated from the rich soil of a new farmer-rancher-labor-urban coalition.
The folks who are goin’ out this Tuesday and votin’ for change are not only mad as hell, they’re courageous and they are risking their social safety So… NO MORE TIMID ELECTED DEMOCRATS!!! We must force the new Democratic Party leadership out in front of this movement or kick ‘em to the curb!
KEEP THE FAITH AND DON’T BACK DOWN TO ANYONE…KICK THE BASTARDS BACK TO THE 19TH CENTURY WHERE THEY BELONG!!!
The Ned Lamont blog calls them Lieberkidz . . . it might not be a bad idea to take the “hint.”
“Have You Had Enough” live on AA right now
Many here (including myself) have expressed their worry about Karl Rove’s vaunted Repug GOTV machine countering even the anger and disgust felt by most Americans at this Repug Administration and their Rubberstamp Congress.
But Karl may come to rue the day because his GOTV effort may in fact bring more of the “Libertarian” and “Traditional Conservatives” out to vote, and to vote not especially for Democrats, but AGAINST Repugs!
Talk about getting bit in the ass, Karl. You play with fire, and someday, you’re gonna get burned!
JH…
While sending a funny pic of Bush to CHS I saw that you lived in Mill Valley. I used to live on East Blithdale and drove everyday to Santa Rosa to work. I love mill Valley and Mt. Tam and all the rest. But I do not long for the 101 drive every day.

ROCK on!!!!
Bravo!
I have to wonder if these “LaRouchies” are for real. Call me paranoid, but this has the odor of a
Rovian false flag operation. It would benefit Lieberman in at least two ways: 1) Slush Fund Joe could claim he is being harrassed by anti-semites “with ties to the Lamont campaign” and 2) a false equivalency narrative could be constructed which would cancel out the egregious activities of the Lieberyouth.
Also, I can imagine $400,000 could pay for a fair number of Jung Republikanz to play the part.
Fuck yeah Norske, the work has only begun.
There’s a comment over there by a guy who says he was paid by the “LaMont” campaign to disrupt Lieberman events. Disrupt them with improper capitalization, apparently. Or maybe Francophilia.
Oh, and thanks so much for the link–I didn’t know about that blog. Now if only I could locate the dripping-with-sarcasm tags…
Dr. KM- “hotel” is a spam word. Comment released.
With the NeoCons twisting the long knives in GW’s back, The writing is on the wall.

DiFi- one of my senators- is running a cloyingly cute commercial with her young daughter which is:

He did exactly what they said- God knows he isn’t bright enough to invent his own invasion.
Now the neo cons are tearing him to pieces for doin exactly what they said.

-GSD
KO ripping into the nook cookbook and the admin.
Olbermann is saying that the “Military Times” will come out with an editorial demanding Rumsfeld’s resignation.
The big story- the November surprise- is the news today that GW Clusterfuck insisted on putting thousands of pages of documents on a website which includes directions for making an atomic bomb. The Intelligence Czar told Clusterfuck that this was criminally insane- but Clusterfuck went ahead. It’s treason of course- and according to Kay- the weapons inspector- violates several international laws.
The trouble is- that what Clusterfuck did is SO incredibly criminal and stupid- that people won’t really believe that he did it- but he DID!
rwcole @ 48
Yep, sad but true and lest we not forget our other Senator and her devotion to rethuglican Leiberman both.
Equally unfuckingbelievable IMHO.

Valley Girl @ 85
thanks for pointing that out - haven’t figured out how to post just one pic.
Ok I just wrote to my sister in law in CT who is very conservative and asked her and her husband to please vote for Lamont or at least Schlesinger over Lieberman. It’s using up credits within the family. Now I owe her one. I wrote to another family member from CT but he has changed his voting place from there to where he is in college. The only other person I know there is someone with whom I have a shaky relationship, and cannot put any additional burden on it. I have gone as far as I can with people that I know in CT. Hope it’s enough.
Subway at 77:
Yes, emphatically! Not only did Dean’s bouyant spirit help many of us keep together, but that 50-state strategy is looking pretty good going into Tuesday—and should really help set things up for 2008.

MsFarbman:
“…involking Hitler will only play into ‘their’ handz.” That is completely WRONG…the only way to engage fascists is to call them out in their own language. They have gained control of the vocabulary and have defined the battlefield. These fascists learned from the Nazis that “liberals” are too afraid to use the truth to defend liberty…this generation of fascists learned that liberals don’t fight back…these fascists are a minority but they have nothing to fear because the “liberals” are too afraid to tell ‘em ta put some pants on!
For God’s sake, let go of your fear…you might not like it but this is a war and these are NOT nice people. These fascists will tear your guts out and rape your children and laugh at you…they ARE laughin’ at you!
Don’t tell me or my children not to call these people what they are…remain silent and they will cut your throat. Don’t you get it??!! These folks want to ELIMINATE you and your freedom to think for yourself.
Wake up … that smell is full blown fascism and it’s after YOU !!
KEEP THE FAITH AND DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE COWARDLY BASTARDS!!!

But I still don’t see how a Rumsfeld resignation will change much. However I do realize there could be some symbolic residue. And Cheney isn’t going anywhere.

newspaperbrat @ 70
for some reason, Boxer bothers me more… with DiFi, I know what I’m gettin’…
That’s great, egregious. If they’re conservatives I would think they wouldn’t mind voting for Rell and Schlesinger.
As a mom, I’m interested in your take on this. Kids in schools around CT have been “voting” for Senator. In Wilton and other schools, Lamont has been winning the straw polls by a landslide.
I remember when my kids were in elementary and intermediary school and they would do straw polls. Kids that age almost always vote the way their parents are - based on what they hear at home.
Do you agree? I realize it means nothing - but still it’s interesting, i.e. out of the mouths of babes.

OKK, I think any forced change gets those cards tumbling at this point, as Clusterator is so dug in he can hardly move (oh is that ever a bad mixed metaphor, but hey)—and make no mistake, that’s the one that has to be moved. Cheney is the hired help, paid in whatever he can loot, as I suspect he is weeks from finding out.
