From Yahoo News:
HARTFORD, Conn. – Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman took another step Tuesday toward mending his relationship with Democrats, saying that Barack Obama's actions since winning the presidency have been "just about perfect."
"Everything that President-elect Obama has done since election night has been just about perfect, both in terms of a tone and also in terms of the strength of the names that have either been announced or are being discussed to fill his administration," Lieberman said during a visit to Hartford.
Whoops! Obama actions are "just about perfect" now, and yet Joe spent much of the campaign trashing him. Well then, Joe made a grave miscalculation. You might even call it a huge mistake. Or was he in a fog? Whatever. He's seen the light now.
Lieberman said he believes the rift between himself and the party stemmed mainly from his support of President Bush's policy in Iraq and will close as that becomes less of an issue.
Sure, Joe. That's all it is. Your ugly words about Obama have nothing to do with the ill will that you experience now. You may be right about the majority of your Democratic colleagues in the Senate, but not for many of us outside of the Senate. We think what you did was shameful. And now we're to believe you when you say that Obama's actions since the election which, by the way, he won, despite your claims that he was not up to the job, are "just about perfect". No, Joe. I don't think so.
H/T to Jane R.
Ugh. Can't believe he's from here. Opportunists have very little currency in the land of steady habits. Larry King is having a very interesting dialogue in this (general) regard. I'm trying to stay tuned in to the re-broadcast going on now.
ReplyDeleteI think Lieberman has nekkid pictures of the senior Dems doing wicked things with farm animals.
ReplyDeleteIt's the only explanation that makes sense to me...
In the email that Jane sent me with the link to the article, she had "What a whore!!!" in the subject line. I should have used that for the title.
ReplyDeleteMimi! I'm shocked, shocked to see such language in my e-mails. Just don't quote me on that in the body of a post. :-b
ReplyDeleteJane! I would never do that! The powers surely will never make their way down into the bowels of my blog comments. Or will they?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if he sleeps well at night.
ReplyDeletewaiting for the horsehead, maybe....
Correction: Jane did not have those ugly words in the subject line of the email but in the body of the message, but I doubt the powers would distinguish between the two and cut her slack on this one.
ReplyDeleteIT, that's about it. He's scared. What a fool he's made of his little self.
Way too little, way too late. What a wretched little man.
