LIEBERMAN'S CLOSET DOOR COMES CRASHING OPEN-- YES, HE IS A TOTAL REACTIONARY

To the Democrats and progressive independents who scoffed when Ken and I warned you about Lieberman... suck on this. I especially rejoice at the discomfort Lieberman is causing his pals Hill and Bill, Obama, Reid, and Schumer. Indigestion doesn't begin to describe what they deserve for coddling this vicious miscreant and Bush/Cheney enabler.

One of the questions Newsweek asked him, rather cluelessly, was "as a lifelong Democrat, do you ever worry about the kind of judges a Republican--any Republican--might nominate during the next four to eight years, when liberal justices are likely to retire? " Apparently Newsweek is unaware that Lieberman has supported the worst of the Bush judicial nominations and has played a key role in confirming the most extremist and fanatical judges in contemporary history. Maybe Newsweek needs to hire professional journalists. In any case, Lieberman said he is concerned, but not really very much. He knows McCain and he knows he'll make the right decisons. (FYI, McCain has supported every single far right extremist fanatic ever nominate for a judgeship without one exception. Even if Newsweek is unaware of that, Lieberman isn't.) He doesn't care about choice either. I wonder if that will be big news to the enablers at NARL who teamed up with Rove and Cheney to make sure he was re-elected in 2006.

Lieberman also stated unequivocably that he will campaign against Hillary or Obama and for McCain and that he will act as a Judas goat in trying to lead Jews away from the Democratic Party-- but that he has no intention of giving up his place inside the Democratic caucus. I wonder if Harry Reid reads Newsweek.


UPDATE: AND IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING...

Lieberman continues to vote with the radical right on all their key issues, including on granting retroactive immunity to Bush's criminal telecom cronies.
