Stop Being Salty!


For those who don't know about this turn coat prick, here's a primer...

"Lieberman was re-elected from Connecticut as an independent in 2006 after losing the Democratic nomination because of his support for the Iraq war.

After his 2006 election, the Senate Democratic leadership agreed to give Lieberman the Homeland Security Committee chairmanship if he provided the decisive vote to make the Democrats a 51 to 49 Senate majority. However, with additional Democratic senators likely to be elected this year, that agreement is expected to be null and void in the new Congress." (Courtesy of these guys)

So here we have this dude that for lack of a better word is salty that the Dems didn't annoint him in '04 over Kerry (although Kerry earned the right to get the nomination). 2 years later he ran independent and won and now he's backing McCain, opposing Barack's plan to withdraw from Iraq as a concession to defeat and is considering speaking at the GOP Convention later this year.

Funny thing is, dog you didn't get nominated cause you didn't have the votes. But you're still in Congress, so fall back. I'm now realizing that from now until November (thank God it's only 4 months) we're going to see a parade of people who are better off with their mouths closed stepping on the soap box.
