Lieberman Savoring Life On Both Sides of the Aisle
Democrats Want Him in Caucus Despite His Backing McCain

By Paul Kane
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, June 6, 2008; Page A17

Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) was running a few minutes late as he bounded onstage to cheers from environmental activists gathered in a park near the Senate chamber on Monday for a rally promoting climate-change legislation, which he is sponsoring with some of the Senate's staunchest liberals.

"I just said good things about you -- that's a true test," Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) told Lieberman, drawing laughter from a crowd that understood that not many Democrats have nice things to say about Lieberman these days.

Lieberman's outspoken advocacy for John McCain's GOP presidential candidacy crossed a line this week, prompting Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) to corral the 2000 Democratic vice presidential nominee into pointed face-to-face discussions.

Lieberman went beyond simply promoting McCain's candidacy on Wednesday. He joined a conference call in which Republicans attacked Obama's position on Iran moments after the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee had delivered a foreign policy address to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

4. Not for long, Traitor Joe, not for long.
Better enjoy it while it lasts because pretty soon you're going to be completely irrelevant to both parties. And what will the repukes do with you then?

6. I'd like to see the Democratic blogosphere do a public renunciation
or disavowal or repudiation or something VERY PUBLIC to disown the bastard.

Anyone in with me? This bastard has GOT to be driven from our ranks--especially now.
