Bi-partisanship, Lieberman style and pundit approved

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 sainted Senator. Does Saint Joe really believe this:

“I’m disappointed to become such a target from liberal Democrats,” he said. “Sometimes in our politics today, partisanship overcomes friendship, and that’s a value that I don’t respect.”

Let’s put aside his enormous friendship for Chris Dodd, whom, thank God, he has refused to endorse. We’ll also overlook the bad grammar. Does he really think that anyone should continue to back him while he takes positions with which he disagrees, out of friendship? The problem we have in Connecticut right now is that we have a Senator who is there only because some Democrats really believed they should sacrifice what principles they had out of a misguided sense of loyalty to the guy who is now stabbing them in the back. Does he really believe we should support someone who we believe is leading the country into a disaster, and would, if he could, bring it into another war, out of friendship?
