My disgust for the Democratic leadership knows no bounds.

Paddle faster! I hear BanJoes.

Thanks Eli.

digg

there you go, he is rooting for the republican so a republican will replace him

AND YET THEY WANT HIM TO KEEP HIS COMMITTEE CHAIR?

I am dumbfounded

Can we please dispense with this 60 seat majority BS? There is no way that the Dems could ever count on at least 10 of the DINO senators who have voted consistently with Bush and the Repugs the past 8 years.

Isn’t there something in psychology about the virtues of being inner-directed versus the dangers of being other-directed?

Well, Joe is certainly inner-directed, though in that perverted way that tips to sociopathic narcissism. (Obama’s inner-directed strength, on the other hand, seems at this point to incline toward pubic service.)

This issue ceased to be about Joe a long time ago. Then it was about Harry Reid. Then it was about the Senate Democrats.

Now it’s about us.

Yeah, I guess once Joe gets the go-ahead on keeping his Oversight committee chair, he’ll hop the next plane to Atlanta to help his good buddy Saxby Charmless. After all, as Short Ride said, it’s not a good thing for the Democrats to have a “filibuster proof majority” in the Senate. Why it might mean, it would draw attention to his voting record, doG forbid.

oh, that georgia!

I’m disgusted by the Dems in the Senate, specifically Chris Dodd who has been the Lieberman’s point man here. Letting LIEberman stay on as chairman of HS is the worst case scenario, given his opposition for everything Obama claims to stand for during and after the election. For instance, Obama is against U.S. torture policy (Lieberman for continuation of Bush’s torture policy), Obama is for closing Gitmo (Lieberman all in for keeping it open indefinitely), Obama for ending the war in Iraq (Lieberman against ending the war in Iraq and wants to stay in Iraq 1000 years), Lieberman is against increasing port security oversight, Lieberman is against investigating what happened with Bush Administration …and the list goes on and on, yet the Dems are willing to leave him in the one position he’s incapable/incompetent of doing any credible oversight.

I meant to say Lieberman is against investigating the Bush Administration’s response to Katrina

practicing…

Dear [insert Senator Demowussy name here]:

Fuck you.

good one LMAO

OK. Since the news isn’t in yet, I’m placing my bet on Joe being tossed from his Chairmanship of the government oversight committee. Reasons: I can’t believe many senators actually like him. He’s a smarmy bastard who stabbed Bill Clinton in the back when he was down, and his agenda doesn’t fit the new Democratic agenda. As to filibusters, it’s a crock. On the Supremes, the Republiks will not be able to block anybody Obama is likely to nominate, and on health care they will be signing their political death warrant if they try.

I don’t think any Democratic senator thinks Joe is essential to anything they want to do (unless they secretly want to block Obama, which is doubtful). They don’t owe him anything. He gave them control of the Senate in 2006, in exchange for which he got to Chair a Committee. Even-steven. So, what is the upside for them? None, as I see it it. I think Dodd is doing the big Kabuki.

My three cents worth. Will hang my head in shame if I turn out to be wrong, though not as low as our Reps ought to hang theirs.

sorry about the whole head hangin’ thing – but they are set today to slap his wrist with removal of his enviornmental sub committee Chair, you know, the one where he actually did some good – but allow him to keep his marquee seat at HS

as the Great Orange Satan said yesterday, at this rate, he’ll be Majority Leader by next tuesday X~o

(To those of you with Photoshop skills, I beg you: Don’t do it.)

sorry, Eli, we beat you to it days ago…

:)

and joe has guaranteed the democrats should NOT have a fillibuster, we need to throw him out of the party already

Whatever happened to the nuclear option?

Ouch! My eyes!

Would love to know what intrigue has allowed LikudJoe to go as far as he has.

I wonder how much A*PAC was or wasn’t involved in the Obama’s cave to Lieberman.

Whatever happened to the nuclear option?

Democrats are more into fossil fuels and Lieberman is one of the biggest fossils around.

I think it’s plain old collegiality, plus the whole idea of 1998.

1998, you see, was when the Republicans thought they had Clinton by the balls — literally. They geared up for impeachment and were all over the teevee about how they were going to use this to win sixty seats in the House and a dozen or so in the Senate. But they wound up breaking even in the Senate (they took out a couple of ours, but we took out Al D’Amato and Lauch Faircloth) and saw their overall House margin drop by five seats. (Of course, this didn’t stop them from moving forward with impeachment anyway.)

Hiya Eli.
My guess is that lieman is too busy rooting for himself right about now to be worrying or spending any time whatsoever on anyone else’s election problems. It’s ALLL ABOUT JOE now.
I wish a psychologist would come out with something on this snake. It looks and seems to me that his entire reason d’etre is to keep himself in the spotlight, always and forever. There a psych term for that and an explanation of that kind of afliction. It’s not Narcissism, though that’s certainly playing into it. It’s about keeping self in a drama (soap opera) in front of cameras and masses of people and i really believe that’s a huge part of his, and consequently OUR, problem.

Well, it’s done.
to us by the damned dems AGAIN!
damit!
