Login HereWhen asked about his Connecticut for Lieberman candidacy having a negative effect on Democrats in House races in the state of Connecticut, Turncoat Joe said:
"Well, I guess I should say that they should have thought of that during the primary, but here we are."
Yes, here we are, you odious Turncoat.
Oh, and for all those who have been questioning whether Lieberman is campaigning with Republicans, you can watch Lieberman and Chris Shays campaigning together on video at a rally. Including Chris Shays saying about Lieberman that "we have a national treasure" in him at this public event, while introducing him to the crowd -- and then later hugging him on camera (and then getting an admonishment from such PDAs in the future from a skittish Turncoat Joe).
Any questions now?

voters of CT: get him outta there.
More PDAs with Republicans? Sounds like the KISS image may become the lead vehicle in a train instead of a single, stand-alone thing. Just keep building those floats . . .
Gotta send this to, em, Stephen Elliot.
Joe? A turncoat? I’m absolutely shocked! SHOCKED!
(Somebody tell Harry Reid!)
Dear Joe:
The voters of Connecticut do not negotiate with hostage-takers. Good bye.
xxoooxxx,
Concerned Citizens
Yes, here we are… we’re lookin’ at you, Joe, and it ain’t a pretty sight. Pouty, petulant, entitlementified.
Shoulda named it Lieberman for Lieberman.
“Any questions now?”
Yes. What is Joementum-speak for traitor?
petulant little bastid!

That bears repeating.
Chris Shays was *partly* right, the Republicans have a national treasure in Turncoat Joe. The Democrats, not so much.
And what a petulant, childish thing for Joe to say….”they should have thought of that”. Ick. I don’t even live in CT, but I’m sending another donation to Ned. Maybe Joe “should have thought of that”, too.
Oh yes. Joe Lieberman is a turncoat alright. What I find most aggravating is Lieberman’s turncoatedness on the placing of Israels interests in the Middle East over his country’s interest. On this crucial issue (peace in the Mid East) I see no light between Lieberman’s position and Senator Clinton’s.
Lieberman: “they hate us all”
Me: “No we hate you, Joe!”
All those bikers and not one of them called him out as the wuss chickenhawk fearmongering bastid that he is?
ps– that was a helluva hug.
“They” should have thought of that during the primary? They? So Joe had no responsibility to think about the bigger picture that should have included Democratic candidates for the House, I guess, because, after all, he was too busy thinking about how he was going to do an end run around the primary results, and his ego prevented anything else from fitting in the framework of that larger picture.
Ooooooh, Christy – the chutzpah of that statement from Joe sent my blood pressure up about 10 points.
Memo to Chris Shays. Get your head checked out.
Speaking of the Lieberliar recruiting with Republicans meme, anyone else notice their comments over at HuffPo disappear in that Stephanie Elliott post?
Really Steph, if you’re going to bash FDL and Jane on another site, don’t be such a sissy that you delete the comments that are critical of your behavior. If you were a real man, you’d have the balls to just admit you were wrong on the issue, apologize to Jane, and we could all move on.
Memo to Joementum: Get your head out of your ass.
sonate @ 18
Or, just get your head and ass out of the race!
Actually I do have one (a genuine one)
The Dem AG who was confirmed to be at the plant at the same time Lieberman was - Is he seeking re-election or is it an off-year?
If he’s not on the ballot, I don’t know that he’s “campaigning” with Lieberman, if we go by Lil Stephen’s narrow view. I mean, the AG wouldn’t be “campaigning” himself, just appearing and supporting HoJo. Plus, less downside for the AG since he wouldn’t pay the price this year.
Just a thought.
And I can’t believe (well, am I really surprised, no, but christ on a pogo stick!) what HoJo said: “they should have thought of that during the primary…”
Why that … crap, I can’t think of anything to call him that is bad enough … oh, REPUBLICAN!
FU HoJo!
very nice not so thinly veiled threat.
what a homunculus.
There are some good lte’s in the Stamford Advocate (a couple that stink too) I especially liked one that ended like this:
(emphasis mine)
The majority of Americans, opposed to the failures of this administration, are rising against these insulting violations of the law and the ethics on which this country was founded. We need leadership with a backbone not a wishbone, and we will have our chance to vote for change in November with Ned Lamont and Diane Farrell.

I just sent this link to our senator’s aides. I think we all need to flood J-Lie’s colleagues with this link. What more proof do they need?
was poor old joe SMILING after he proclaimed that ‘they hate us all” ???
it was bad enough that he laughed about possibly tanking CT democrats running for the house but smiling after saying ‘they hate us all” ???
Lieberman is such a tool
can’t access it– tis archived behind da wall.
Uh. Mah. Gawd.
That is just amazing.
But Lieberman and Shays weren’t campaigning together. No.
They were fucking picking out china patterns.
oh bother, I cannot read today, sorry for any confusion.
True Carl Cameron: Cites the “Far left.”
Christy - I’m sorry this is off-topic - got here too late for the Armitage thread - but was curious what you thought about this exchange on Monday’s Hardball - part of the Noron and Isikoff transcript:
O‘DONNELL: Did the White House know that Armitage was the primary source for Bob Novak and perhaps even Woodward.
ISIKOFF: Fascinating question. One of the things we describe in the book is this phone call by Will Taft, the State Department legal adviser, to Alberto Gonzales, the then White House counsel, right after he‘s contacted the Justice Department, to tell them that the State Department and Dick Armitage has information relevant to the investigation. He tells that to the Justice Department.
Taft feels obligated to tell the White House something. This thing is blown up. It‘s a huge Washington firestorm and the White House is under heat. Taft calls Gonzalez and says well I think you should know that we at the State Department have some information relative to this investigation. They are worried at State, Taft, that the White House is going ask for details and if they know it‘s Armitage they will leak it to pass attention away from themselves.
O‘DONNELL: So did the White House know it was Armitage.
ISIKOFF: Gonzalez never asked any follow up questions. He just said thank you very much and never asked for the details about Armitage. Taft and Armitage breath a huge say of relief and the White House, at least at that stage, had no idea the identity of the leaker.
O‘DONNELL: Because Karl and Scooter Libby and others in the White House could have said listen it wasn‘t it was Dick Armitage, if they knew.
ISIKOFF: They would, presumably, loved to have had this information back then as a push back to the heat they were getting. Of course they had complicity of their own. They had, you know, Rove not only confirmed the story to Novak, he then volunteered the information to Matt Cooper a few days later. So and Scooter Libby, of course, had already talked about it with Judy Miller of the “New York Times.” So their hands were not clean on this, but it is ironic that the primary guy who set the chain in motion was Dick Armitage, a moderate in the administration.

(is Isikoff full of it? Or, if he’s right, why would Abu blow it off?)
Jane at 29 — I know. Jeebus.
HoJoSpeak translation:
“You’ll see. You’ll be sorry. I’m gonna come back and get you and you’re gonna be the ones who wanna be my friends and I’m gonna say NO cuz I won’t need YOU!” [wiping snot bubble from nose on sleeve]
“They should have thought about it during the primary?”
Translation:”He-who-dared-run-against-me should have realized that even if I lost,I would show my respect for democracy and my ‘fellow’ Democrats by fucking them all.”
everhopeful at 29 — from what I have heard from a number of folks, Gonzales has never been a criminal attorney, and his experience was less than substantial in that arena. I’ve seen him described on more than one occasion by current and former DoJ folks as a sort of “empty suit” whose experience is all administrative and corporate, and not much else — and it may not even have occurred to him, if that’s true, to ask the follow-up question. Not all lawyers have substantial courtroom experience and trial practice. I don’t know a lot about Gonzales’ prior legal background before he sat on the TX Supreme Court bench (to which Bush appointed him, as I recall) — maybe some of our TX readers can fill in the gaps on this — but in my experience, folks who haven’t worked in a particular legal area are often completely out of their depth in trying to work in it (that’s why I always recommend to friends the name of someone who specifically specializes in a particular field when they need someone to address a really specific legal issue).
Weepy HoJo engaged in lobbing thinly veiled threats. Jeezuuu, and it’s only nearly September. Fuck the popcorn. We may have to resort to cake.
Isn’t it amazing that if the GOP loses the Senate, it could be because they’ve lost control of their own far right wing (in Rhode Island). But if the Democrats lose they House, it could be because the leadership is too compromised to drop the fucking hammer on this churlish little turncoat and support the duly elected Democratic nominee. Then Rahm runs around telling people that Joe Lieberman is a “Democrat.”
Maybe he ought to watch more Fox News. That may be the best piece Carl Cameron’s ever done.
Bush says he won’t get out of Iraq no matter what. Israel “sidesteps calls to end blockade” of Lebanon. Yo Israel. This is a humanitarian thing here. Lieberman’s strings are pulled by the Israeli government. The leaders of America, Israel and Hezbollah are war criminals.
What. A. Dick.
Unbelievable. Truly just unbelievable.
Any Democrat who votes for this turd … well, I can’t even finish the sentence. And NARAL should be so incredibly ashamed.
Over at Eschaton, the topic of “how can Lieberman exit this race with his dignity intact?” was being discussed. I said that the only way he could get out of this with any dignity is to commit seppuku. We could all feel badly for his family, shake our heads at the tragedy of it all, and maybe the Lifetime Network could make one of its patented movies out of the last years of his life. “Fatal Hubris: The Joe Lieberman Story.”
But I don’t think that even a noble suicide would help him now. His legacy is set in concrete. He’s closed the last door to A Graceful Way Out.
I just hope most Republicans in Connecticut can’t hold their noses long enough to vote for him, and Lieberman finds out what happens when you depend upon the kindness of the GOP.

sorry, the edit function was a hoot to use for that too!
As we all know by now, Jack Kemp will campaigning with Joe Lieberman. Here is an article by Kemp explaining why he is supporting Joe.
http://www.townhall.com/column.....the_senate
There are three things here that Kemp does not point out (even if you go and read the complete article.)
1. Lieberman lost the Democratic primary to Lamont, a decision which Lieberman refuses to accept. Kemp expects Democrats to be happy with that?
2. Lieberman is running as an independent in name only. He is getting vital support from Republicans. Kemp expects Democrats to be happy with that?
3. Lieberman’s narcissism is endangering the election chances of three Democrats running for the House. Kemp expects Democrats go be happy with that?
Finally, the people of CT need to ask whether Kemp really has the interests of the people of CT at heart. Kemp is big time lobbyist and you can be sure he does not support causes that help ordinary folks. His firm is called Kemp Partners, and one of their major businesses is “Government Relations.” You and I know what that means. Are the people of comfortable knowing that one of Joe’s biggest supporters is a lobbyist for big corporations?
Kemp is also a founding member of Empower America, a rightwing think tank. Kemp is also close to Robert Kagan, co-founder with William Kristol of PNAC, those wonderful folks who brought you the war in Iraq..
Here are a couple of things Kemp and Lieberman have in common: Both ran for VP and lost (Kemp in 1996, Lieberman in 2000) Both lost in primary campaigns for the presidency (Kemp in 1988, Lieberman in 2004)
I can’t believe that ANY Democrat would vote for this schmuck after a statement like that! He is now freely admitting that he tried to blackmail the party into voting for him. He laughs about it. Outrageous. God, how I despise him. Going to donate more to Ned right now.
Joe can raise campaign funds by running a kissing booth.

Of course RGJoe is kissy-face with Shays. Shays is giving RGJoe the cover to change his position on the War on Iraq without undermining our Commander-in-Chief. That’s probably worth more than a kiss; the whispering is the clue.
All these years in the public eye, on teevee, and neither Shays nor RHJoe can see how icky their interaction is gonna look through a camera lens? Shake, hug, ear-lick (flutter-kiss), long whisper, giggle, step-back, high-five, laugh… light cigarette.
Maybe now we know the source of W’s latest presser madness — RGJoe’s got some new GOP-boytail. Shays, Kemp, Hannity. Watch for JimmyJeff to show up at the WH to relieve W’s pain soon.

“should have thought of that during the primaries”

sorry if that’s been mentioned already…

Yeah Rummy and BushCo are nothing if not ballsy. THEM, calling US fascists…it boggles the mind. One of us is wiretapping without warrants. One of us is holding American citizens, without charges, indefinitely, without access to attorneys. One of us is refusing American citizens entry into the country, for refusing to incriminate themselves, again without access to attorneys.
Yeah Rummy, keep taking whatever it is that you are on…your insights into the situation keep getting more creative!
Reid can say publicly that Joe will loose all senority on committees next year, should he be elected in November.
The precedent for this is Sen. Wayne Morse in 1953:
Morse realized that his defection would cost him his seniority on the Armed Services and Labor committees, but he believed that his eight years of Senate seniority entitled him at least to remain on these prime committees. Consequently, he was unprepared for Majority Leader Robert Taft’s decision that he be removed altogether from the Labor Committee—his most prized assignment.
It goes on, interesting reading

Yesterday, it was TRex’s “petulant”, today it’s Jane and “churlish” and Christy’s “odious.”
Around our house, The Kid is learning to read. Sometimes that means getting a new book off the shelf and working through it together, and other times it means taking an old favorite, and looking at the words more than the pictures. One of his favorite oldies is from Beatrix Potter of Peter Rabbit fame: “The Tale of Mr. Tod.” The title character is a fox, and his nemesis is the “odious Tommy Brock” - a badger who goes into Mr. Tod’s home when he’s is not around, eats whatever he wants from the cupboards, sleeps in Mr. Tod’s bed, grubs up the neighborhood, messes up the place, and generally acts like a big “party of one.”
The “Odious Joe Lieberman” really hits home with the under-five crowd, and the adults who read with them!
So is there a party HQ for CT for Lieberman? Are people going to change their voter registrations to CFL? What is a political party? What does it stand for? How does one join it? Are there party rules and such? Officers? Are there no basic legal issues here?
I mean, how is he getting away with this shit?
I will say it again, in NM one cannot run for office again after a primary defeat by running under another “party/no party” banner. Against the law in NM.

OT:
The Repubs are broadcasting their intent to spend now thru the 9/11 anniversary hawking the war and need to stay and inflict more insane destruction. The Demos need to START RIGHT NOW on their own offensive, in support of an imminent timeline for withdrawal. The best way to do this is indicated by Barney Frank, who has an excellent posture of clarity and precision without wimpiness over at the HuffPost today:
Barney Frank rips up the fiction that Dems are mostly pacifists, a bias carried in too many editorial boards in the country, by writing:
Their argument is that the refusal of many Democrats to support the war in Iraq shows that President Bush’s opposition is unwilling to use force against terrorism.
There is, of course, one factual refutation of this partisan distortion. Every Democratic senator and representative but one voted for the war in Afghanistan. It is this war that represented America’s reaction to the murders of thousands of Americans on Sept. 11 . It was the Taliban regime in Afghanistan that was sheltering Osama bin Laden. The reaction of the overall majority of Americans, including virtually all Democrats, was to support the Afghan war as a necessary act of self-defense.
The Massachusetts 4th Congressman rips the clothes of the emperor with his sensible kicker:
Whether or not one subscribes to the geopolitical aims that motivated the Bush administration’s intervention in Iraq, it is clearly invalid to assert that support for that war is the indispensable badge of one’s willingness to confront terrorism. Only by adopting the techniques of the big lie can the vice president make his case that those opposed to the Iraqi war fail to understand the importance of a firm response to terrorists. In fact, given the deleterious effect it has had on our effort in Afghanistan, and the enormous boost it has given to anti-American forces around the world, the big truth is that the Iraq war has damaged our ability to fight terrorism.
Americans were united in their response to the mass murders of 9/11. The war in Iraq has weakened the United States internationally and divided it domestically, while draining needed resources. It is precisely because the Iraq war is not defensible on any other terms that the Bush/Cheney approach uses the big lie to defend the war in Iraq on grounds that in fact describe the war in Afghanistan.
Barney is exactly on target.
That bears repeating, again.
But seriously, the voters “should have thought of that during the primary”?! WTF?! The voters did think about that during the primary, and decided to NOT vote for you to get you out of the race, yet.. here we are, indeed. Here we are dealing with you drawing out the Republican vote, endangering House seats just so you can lose the general election to the Democratic nominee. Awesome. So glad we’re all here. I’m so pissed I could open a “strong” tag AND NOT CLOSE IT! (ugh.. XHTML humor.. it’s not all that funny, is it?)

Can’t we get more people to make those phone calls- While we’re at it- Hartford Courant has an article reflecting the less than full support of the Democratic leadership for Lamont-Running afraid that Lieberman might win- Of course he will if they don’t speak loud and clear- We need to call- Shumer, Reid -Pryor-Lincoln-
It makes a difference-Howard Dean has been very clear about this issue- Joe Lieberman is the past and Ned Lamont is part of the future New Direction Democrat-

Christy Hardin Smith @ 36
Even if he has some resume-fodder indicating government employment as a trial lawyer, there’s no reason to believe he’d actually gone to trial or was any good at it if he had. Plenty of prosecutors and civil govt attorneys are political hacks who the rest have to pick up the slack for (and the hacks usually get paid a lot more).
I still think so much of this hinges on Armitage’s credibility — would he really go to State and directly to State with the information without tipping the WH? I mean, he’s a moderate (supposedly — so he’s left of the clearly insame MFs), but does that mean he’s Switzerland? He remains a partisan in the employ of the WH who was working to disseminate information to smear someone. I know I have a low opinion of the guy, but I can’t say that I have a read on him specifically as to whether I think he’d be more scared of Cheney or DoJ.
The Gonzalez conundrum cuts both ways. He could be too dull to ask the follow up, or — he didn’t ask because he already knew and he was too dull to ask what he should have.
Joe Lieberman doesn’t care about the voters, he cares about his precious senate seat. He and the Republicans are using each other. Honor, dignity, commitment to democracy just don’t figure into Joe’s equasion. He wants to go back to Washington, good money to be had. The people of his party be damned. They didn’t vote for him in the primary so too bad for them, he has relieved himself of his duty and loyalty to the party.
Joe is beneath contempt, he’s gum stuck to the bottom of your shoe. It’s why he failed to win the primary. If he wins another term it will be all about Joe, all the time. He has his FU attitude packed and ready to go. Vote for Ned Lamont, Lieberman has screwed us enough.

There is something deeply sick and rotten in our government right now.
It might be true that Harry Reid can’t do much at this time about Droopy Joe’s seniority, committee assignments, etc., but he certainly could speak out strongly about Lieberloser, strongly censuring his behavior and comments, urging him to drop out of the CT Senatorial race with this stupid and devisive Independent run.
