None of Lieberman’s Republican buddies, on or off Capitol Hill, are backing Dennis Kucinich’s probe of Rahm Emanuel. These are the people that went ahead with impeaching Bill Clinton for trying to hide a few blow jobs that were none of their business, yet they won’t go after Obama’s right-hand man? How– curious.

Al Franken, like many junior Senators, has to spend some time in the chair of the President of the Senate. He did so today when Joe Lieberman gave a long speech on the Senate floor about health care.
