Hey AJ in Fla, you're way doesn't work. Fascist social platform, trickle down "let them eat crumbs" economics, and hawkish interventionism foreign policy ain't exactly "mom and apple pie" either. If you got a new plan we're happy, no overjoyed to listen but if you're trying to roll out the same insanity on a different day then bring on your worst fears because history shows Americans will stand behind Stalin to rid the world of Hitler. We did it before and we'll do it again, without batting an eye. Socialism is soooooo the lesser of two evils in contrast to fascism.

Lieberman has decided to go his own way. Now, the Democrats can go their own way next year when the Democrats strip him of his chairmanship and not let him become a part of their caucus.

Strip Leiberman of any leadership roles, he is a traitor to the Democratic Party, and to think I used to like him, perhaps he should be sent back to Minsk along with Gramm.

I'm am (or should I say was) a Democrat much in the same mold as Joe Lieberman was. The crazy libs in the party can't stand the fact that he beat them as an independent and now want revenge in the only way they know how. The crazy Kos crowd is the reason I am an independed today. Give'em hell Joe, just like you did in 2006 and let them eat cake!

We won't need the party jumper Lieberman come next year anyway. AJ in Fla: get over yourself. God's not against anyone, except haters. Patrick: if you respect Chuck Hagel, you won't vote for McCain. Hagel wouldn't. Ridgeway: Organized religions of EVERY flavor are the original terrorists. Christianity has a pretty awful history. Of course, you'd have some sense of history to understand that; most brainwashed Jesus freaks don't. They just believe in a book put together 400 yrs after Jesus died, leaving out anything that didn't fit their morally corrupt, misogynist principles. Jesus was a radical, dude. He wouldn't approve of Hagee OR Wright OR most of the so-called 'leaders' of faiths.

After reading several posts on these CNN blogslately it looks like my suggestion is working. Mostly Obama supporters ranting here. Thanks CNN for posting your own downfall.

If you are a supporter of any other candidate than Barack Obama, you should probably give the CNN blogs over to the Obamabots so they can talk to themselves. That's why you haven't heard from me for awhile. There are other news websites that are more unbiased and filter out posts that are just plain nasty. My suggestion to all who are anti-Obama is to stop watching the CNN network and stop using the CNN website until they start reporting and posting unbiased and fair news. And until they stop posting attack type blogs from pro-Obama people against people like Freida and Sharon Minnesota.

Boycott CNN who most likely won't post this!

Joe Lieberman has to be relagated to the "cheap seats". All his power should be stripped away and he should be left to lobby for Israel from the parking lot.

On second thought maybe McBush could tap him for VP???

Bad mouth "turncoat" Lieberman but carefully defend the rights of the poor mistreated souls at Guatanamo Bay. I couldn't write a funnier movie than what real life in liberal America looks like. No wonder it's the party of comedians (Franken, Alec Baldwin, et al).

Lieberman is a big fat 0. He was a 0 the minute he dared to think he should do us all a favor and run as an Independent. McCain doesn't need him and the Dems don't want him. Get off the stage, Joe. Your 15 minutes of fame are over.

As much as democrats would like to throw Lieberman "under the bus", they need him to maintain their 51-49 advantage in the Senate. This whole Lieberman story demonstrates how cynical politics is. Lieberman is using his relationship with McCain in order to appear that he carries more gravitas than he does in reality. In order to gain a few more minutes in the spotlight, he is doing his party (and country) a great deal of harm.

Actually, can we go ahead and get Reid out of there too? I'm in favor of kicking Lieberman, Reid, and Pelosi out. If we can do that and maintain Democratic majorities, I'll be ecstatic.

Harry Reid-you think you can mess with Joe Lieberman's career in politics because he is not falling in line with your stupid democrat colleagues, the "bully-bunch"!???? Well, karma's gonna get ya' if you don't watch out!!!! Look what happened to stupid Kennedy with his brain tumor! Hateful, power hungry, pro-death politicians better look at what they're supporting and how they are not emulating the morals our Country has depended on to make it the great Country it has been. The problem with our Country is there are too many Harry Reid's in Washington. Too many power hungry sheisters who don't care about the American citizens, only care about getting kick backs and bullying people in the Senate/Washington. I hope Harry Reid gets his!

Joe Lieberman is a traitor, he probably has affiliations to Israel. His main agenda is the well being of Israel, just like the other iranian mole who gave ideas to GWB to attack Iraq, so that iran could take over iraqs power base. Which is what had essentialy happened. If McCain gets to power, Joe will be running the show.

I suspect the Mr. Reid will choose a typical Democrat, Socialist w/ communist tendencies Liberal,Anarchyst, perhaps someone from Vermont " The pedophilia state",. or someone from California w/San Francisco values ie: In favor of gay marriage, abortion on demand,
and all the rest, etc....!!!!! but most likely one of our outstanding politically and morally corrupt politicians.

God help us...!!!!!

JOE LIBERMANN is unethical. H ecares more about ISRAEL than America. As an Army Recruiter in NYC, no Israeli Americans ever join the Army. In Northern New jesrsey, all I keep getting was, I would rather join the Isreli Army than the US. The Israeli's want us to do their dirty work in the Middle East. We went into Iraq worried about Saddam been a threat to his neigbours, now we are using the same logic to go after Iran, then it will be Syria, then Saudi Arabia. American's need to wake up, we are been used as idiots to do ISRAEL dirty games. ISRAEL HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, WHY ISN'T THAT A PROBLEM. SAUDI ARABIA SHOULD GET SOME TOO, I bet there won't be any UPROAR about that either!!

Just like liberals....can't have descent. Anyone who descends from the Democrat Party is a "Judas." In a time where bipartisan support and united action is what the American people want, you all cry foul at TRUE Bipartisanship. Lieberman, a former Democrat, has voted on many issues with the Democrats but feels that McCain, regardless of his party, is the best man fit for the presidency.
