Last Democrat Standing

Monday, March 31, 2008

Poor Joe Lieberman. According to him, he didn’t leave the Democratic Party, every other Democrat in the country did: “It’s not the Bill Clinton-Al Gore party, which was strong internationalists, strong on defense, pro-trade, pro-reform in our domestic government,” he said. “It’s been effectively taken over by a small group on the left of the […]

Betting Liberally

Thursday, March 6, 2008

I’ve just returned from our third Drinking Liberally. Attendance was down; I’m hoping it was because of the basketball game. Before I retire, I must memorialize a bet that I made with another liberal drinker. I “win” the bet if the Democrats get 57 or more Senate seats after the next election and they do […]

Nancy laments

Friday, February 1, 2008

What do I find in my inbox today, but a missive from Nancy DiNardo, telling me how shocked, truly shocked she is at that fact that Joe Lieberman is not a man of his word: “I continue to be disappointed beyond words with Joe Lieberman, as are a lot of Connecticut Democrats — saddened, surprised, […]

Bi-partisanship, Lieberman style and pundit approved

Wednesday, December 26, 2007

Ever notice how Saint Joe’s bipartisanship only seems to flow in one direction? Apropos of my previous post, this is the type of bi-partisanship of which the beltway establishment is so enamored. If Tom Allen has any sense he’ll hang Joe around Sue Collin’s neck. One further point, while we’re on the subject of our […]

A legislator doing good work

Tuesday, December 18, 2007

Recently I passed on a suggestion from the comments that the Democrats in the Connecticut State Legislature should use their veto proof majority to keep Jodi Rell from appointing a replacement for Joe Lieberman, should Joe decide to depart for greener pastures. State Representative Tim O’Brien, (D. New Britain/Newington) wrote in to say that he […]

Lieberman endorses McCain

Sunday, December 16, 2007

This will do McCain no good, but can we at least hope that, come January 2009, with an increased Democratic majority, Reid will tell Lieberman that he has no need of him as chairman of anything?

Cold comfort, but comfort nonetheless

Thursday, September 13, 2007

According to a poll commissioned by Daily Kos, Ned Lamont would handily beat Joe Lieberman today, if the voters of Connecticut had another chance to vote. Most of the shift, as you would expect, comes from the Democrats and Independents who were taken in by Lieberman. By the way, it’s hard to believe that the […]

Saint Joe visits the asylum

Thursday, July 26, 2007

Max Blumenthal has guts. Here he visits a convention of Christians United for Israel, a group of certified nutcases who want to provoke a war with Iran in the hopes that they can bring on Armageddon. Featured Speaker: Our own Joe Lieberman. Is there a way to impeach a Senator? Rapture Ready: The Unauthorized Christians […]

The Day gets it, eight months too late

Tuesday, July 3, 2007

In an Editorial today, the New London Day takes Joe Lieberman to task for his support of the Iraq War. It has not yet clued itself in to the fact that Joe now has bigger fish to fry; having destroyed Iraq for no reason, he is now gunning for Iran, spreading disinformation as he goes. […]
