For those calling Lieberman (or Nelson, Lincoln, Landrieu).
Tell them to vote YES on all procedural votes, because Lieberman is clearly playing on words. He needs to vote YES on the motion to proceed (and the eventual motion for cloture on the motion to proceed) and on the motion to cloture the debate.

This a*hole is playing with words here, and the AP reporters are not even able to report this correctly.

1. Correct. He will vote to let the bill proceed to debate but not to the floor for an up or down vote
if it still contains a public option. I live in Nevada and just wrote Reid asking him to strip this *'s chairmanship if he votes to uphold the Republican's filibuster.

2. I thought the White House stopped Reid when he tried that in January. n/t
