1. Oh gawd!

:puke:

2. Ummm...why?

I'm sure no one is surprised that he's endorsing a Repub,
but why THIS Repub? McCain has no chance, none at all...
and Traitorman knows it.

So what's up with this?

[Happyhippychick]

3. I think they were both fighting over who can get his nose farther up Bush's anus

and along the way they fell in love.

This is the second time today that I have referenced Bush's anus. Deepest apologies to the DU world.

[Glimmer of Hope]

4. He is such an ass.

[hfojvt]

5. Why isn't he a party loyalist?

He should support whoever wins the Republican primary.

[Crunchy Frog]

6. I still can't fathom what Al Gore was thinking

when he chose him as running mate.

I wonder if he will be keynoting the Repuke convention this time around, and if so, will he challenge Tweety to a duel?

[bobbolink]

18. That's what I keep wondering.... Why, Al, WHY???

:wtf:

[Tesha]

7. I wonder how many of the national "big name" Democrats are still glad...

I wonder how many of the national "big name" Democrats
are still glad they supported this asshole in favor of
the *NOMINATED DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR U.S. SENATE*
back in 2006?

Didn't they do a swell job???

8. His true colors shine through

No surprise there :puke: :puke: :puke:

9. lieberfuckenputz strikes

again.

biggest mistake gore made.

[Owl]

11. Yep.

[lyonn]

21. Imagine what this endorsement will do for McCain??? nt

[Leopolds Ghost]

23. It will give him Desperately-needed JOE-MENTUM going into New Hampshire. n/t

[RC]

10. You'd think the least he could do would be to support Hillary.

After all, she is pretty far right.

[acmavm]

13. Didn't the Clintons support old Joe when he pulled his Independent

Democrat bullshit?

It seems that way to me, but I could be wrong.

edit: and I don't care enough about either the Clintons or Liebermann to Google it.

[Crunchy Frog]

19. They supported him in the primary

but not after Lamont got the nomination. To be fair, many national Democrats whom I otherwise admire supported Lieberman in the CT senate primary, including Obama and Boxer.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

12. He's just spreading his "JoeMentum" on the barren field of Republican candidates.

And, it still smells as bad as it ever did.

[karynnj]

25. but he may take the whole Lieberman wing of the party with him

After all Mark Penn ran his 2004 campaign and argued why he was clearly the right choice.

[Nutmegger]

14. Sickening, just sickening.

And to think people defend this rabid repuke bastard.

:puke:

[BrotherBuzz]

15. weather permitting? This is a joke premised on a given...

:rofl:

[Fridays Child]

16. Can he be kicked out of the party?

[SoCalDem]

17. Didn't we all guess this already? n/t

[iamthebandfanman]

20. is that supposed to surprise people?

cause it doesnt me.
why people keep associating him with the democrats ill never know.
people call him the 'independent democrat' and i remember right after the elections news people saying oh he'll caucus with the democrats... bullshit...
i say we cut off all ties to that man.

doubt thatll ever happen tho.
so long as hes up the DLCs arse

[Liberal In Texas]

22. Possibly it's part of an independent ticket gambit.

I still think we're going to see some kind of 3rd party or independent ticket formed for '08. Maybe ole Joe thinks that there is a possibility of a McCain/Lieberman coalition.

Just an idea.

[MyNameGoesHere]

24. joe asswipes loyalty was neither to the Democratic party or

to the USA. His loyalty lies east.

[pansypoo53219]

26. what pisses me off

is the ridiculous amount of coverage this got. WHO CARES who joemental lieberfuckenputz endorses.
REALLY.
