additional consideration for ability to guide a gurney through the streets of Stamford, from hospital to hospital.

Cut throat driving and parking in handicapped spots a plus. The ability to endure the smell of sulphur is essential (when Mel Sembler, Cheney et al get into the car.)
Or the ability to change a flat tire faster than Joe can switch party affiliations.
Tough job, that.
roflmao teh funny
A driver with computer and organizational skills? What the heck is that? Sounds as if he wants someone to replace his entire staff.
parking stall tactics.
Interesting job requirement: “maintain composure under pressure”
Now who do you suppose might be exerting pressure on a staff assistant to Joe Lieberman?
*g*
What was Al Gore thinking?
I had always liked Gore and have always thought he couldn’t have put together a worse team if he had tried. Not just Lieberman, but the entire campaign was ho-hum, in my opinion.

If ya can’t make fun of police brutality….
I like the “must have own car”–that’s a nice touch. Bet the person’s insurance agent’s gonna love that one.
Hey, anyone asked JoeLie about Iran lately? Shame…it’s almost as good a disinfectant as Sunshine [transparency].
Sobering update on the mall shooting in Omaha. Two deaths, likely more injured than the recent reporting. [5 shootings]. Hunt underway for killer.

Gunman opens fire in mall in Omaha, Nebraska
There was some spokesperson for Israel on BBC. He said the NIE estimate is wrong. BBC anchor, all very good and well, you’ve just given me rhetoric, can you give me actual reasons (paraphrase). I am sure HoJoe will insist he’s “right” and everyone else is wrong. Looks as though some neocons Israel and possibly US will do that.
our posts at 18 and 19 simultaneous, looks like, Waccamaw. Sad, sad, sad.
OT..Things heating up for the Huckster: From Americablog and CNN
Mike Huckabee was just on CNN disputing the claim that he pushed for the parole of Wayne Dumond.
When Wolf Blitzer asked what Huckabee’s responsibility was in the tragedy, he actually portrayed himself as a hero, “Wolf, my only official action in this was I denied his commutation.”
Then, Huckabee basically said the three parole board members who said Huckabee pushed for Dumond’s parole were liars. When Wolf asked if those members were telling the truth when they said that the Governor “influenced them in a significant way to let the guy go,” Huckabee said, “Wolf, they’re not.”

If only I lived in DC and still had my ‘68 VW bus or, better yet, my ‘57 VW bus!
Must be willing to join the “Connecticut for Lieberman” party thereby doubling its size.
Correction I don’t mean to imply HoJoe is in line and step wth Israel. But he’s now Cheney’s puppet. Bought and sold and infused with sulphuric acid.
Jeebus. I don’t care with Gurney HoJo is paying, it isn’t enough.
They have to provide their OWN CAR? WTF?
Yeah, they’re gonna be lined UP to take that position.
I thought the CT for Lieberman party kicked Lieberman out.
Applicants must have their own car
WTF?
Bernie Kerik is available! And he has experience chauffeuring pompous, arrogant asswipe backseat drivers with “a voice like fingernails on a chalkboard”!
Fixed it for you, MadDog.
Didn’t he register as a Democrat because somebody else actually got control of Liers for Conn, and wouldn’t let him in?
Add rainbow colors and party streamers. It would be perfect.
lol
Well you didn’t think Joe would let the help take THE car home. And he isn’t gonna want to wait around while his driver is on the bus! Joe must not be left waiting.
Remember, three rights make a left.
Speaking of Bernie Kerik. He’s featured in Greenwald’s new film, Homeland Security for Sale. I was hoping HoJoe would get a bit part given his “standup” role on the Homeland Security committee.
I think CTBob can tell us what happened to the CT for Lieberman party.
Wow, who brought the Nitrous?
LMAO here.
And fixed agin. *g*
Tolerance for whining is an asset.

I gotta ask…..how did you cross paths with this notice? *Perfect* title!
Whoever gets this job can update the world on what the first circle of hell will be like.
This is so sad. Any word on motive? I have been to that mall before. It isn’t in a bad neighborhood.
I’ve been trying to figure out what the greatest part of gaining a few extra Senate seats would be next year.
a) Getting the necessary 60 votes to pass Democrat ideas.
b) Taunting my Mom.
c) The end of JoHo’s already limited relevance. Forever.
Hmmmm.
The CFL is alive and well! In fact, CFL chairman John Orman is very busy with the party, keeping Connecticut For Lieberman up front and in Lieberman’s face!
OT (sorry)
Please go to:

to read and take action about the pending demolition of public housing in New Orleans.
Not knowing your mum, I’d have to say choosing a) or c) is sorta like making a decision between pie and cake. *g*
I know the perfect guy for the job. No, wait a minute, he’s a drunk who likes to speed.
OTH…..
OT – the power of nature:
Fresh thread upstairs!
Omaha shooting details not yet known, I’d imagine by tomorrow it’ll be reported.

Great find Jane!
It’s so that all the parking tickets go to the poor sucker driver — either that or its up to the driver to pay off DC meter maids.
good grief Jane can you be any funnier?
Y’know, if the job requires computer skills, maybe the successful applicant could be persuaded to, y’know, blog?
Or maybe some of those bloggers could, um, sign up for the job?
It would surely make an entertaining read.
Oh, and the Omaha story was the second story on German radio’s midnight (their time) news.
Bad news travels fast, I guess.
Wow! Must own car… does that mean Joe expects the prospective employee to ferry him around in it? And who pays for the gas? Will a test-drive be part of the interview?
However… perhaps we are overlooking a real opportunity here to place someone more sympathetic to our cause, say, a Manchurian driver?
no, but could have been rendeld gov of pa old herion addict driver
