LIEberman on Imus: "I'll support whomever will be the best President - REGARDLESS of party."

[matcom]

:eyes:

thanks CT

[enigmatic]

1. What a Douchebag he is

Seriously.

[tularetom]

4. Who? Loserman or Anus?

Far as I'm concerned they're both douchebags.

[enigmatic]

9. I meant Lieberman

But yeah, Imus is a shriveled-up one, too. He got his start in Cleveland when I was growing up, and he was an ass then, too.

[KamaAina]

30. That was not his start

NBC sent him down to Cleveland from NYC after he missed one too many airshifts while being drunk and/or coked up.

Douchebag.

[xchrom]

2. ...

:crazy:

[madrchsod]

3. good god i voted for this asshole

in 2000 that is...what was gore thinking?

[wellstone dem]

5. There's all this talk about Dodd betraying lieberman

but how about Lieberman's betrayal of Dodd and others who campaigned for him, by having the integrity to live by the results of the primary?

[salin]

6. Lieberman (I - Conn)

that sorta says it all.

[donheld]

17. I = Idiot?

:shrug:

[Hoosier Dem]

22. ITs actually "LIEberman (AH-CT)

[salin]

27. Seriously there was a news item a couple of days ago that

at the opening of the second paragraph was "Lieberman (I - Conn)" I thought yes he can con, apparently. Thought the tag was funny enough to repeat. Lieberman the conman.

[sendero]

7. He wouldn't know "best"..

... if it slid out of his sphincter.

[Saturday]

8. Sounds to me like.....

he'll be on the ticket with McCain.

[BlueManDude]

10. We all know he's going to support McCain. They'll roll him out

right around the time of the Dem convention (either that or he'll be at the GOP convention)for maximum exposure.

[Shadrach]

11. He will support the republican nominee

He is that annoying!

[no_hypocrisy]

12. Duplicitous little weasal.

Reminds me of the Bishop of Bray:

Whatsoever king may reign,
I'll still the Bishop of Bray, sir!"

Lieberman will go with the winning team. THAT'S what makes him "independent".

[bdamomma]

13. boy this guy is such a thorn on our sides

I do not trust him either, joe only thinks about joe.

[renate]

25. unfortunately, this thorn in our sides is the only thing keeping the Senate Dem

I worry that he'll get so peeved about the criticism that he'll switch parties.

Hard to imagine that a guy who ran (and won) as a Democratic VP nominee, and ran for the Democratic presidential nomination, could do that, but McCain has seemed to embrace those who smeared him, now that it suits his agenda to do so, so why not Joe?

I really do worry that all the "he's a Republican in sheep's clothing" will build up to the point where he'll figure he has nothing to lose by taking off that sheep's clothing. And then we will be partially screwn--at least we'll still have the House, but having both is so sweet.

[havocmom]

14. Zell Lieberman

[xultar]

15. I call him Zoel Millieberman.

[Missy M]

16. Is Lieberman the one who determines.....

"whomever will be the best President"?

[dogday]

18. At least he can't hide behind the Democratic Party anymore

and that is the only good thing about him..

[ribrepin]

32. I am so glad that he was forced to become an independent

I just wish we could convince the pundit class to call him an independent. Lamont may have lost the election, but he forced Joe out from behind the closet door. It's too damn bad that we need the bastard to hold the Senate.

If he joins the repubs in a filibuster to block the anti-surge resolution, we should have DU monitoring the pundits to correct them if they call Joe a Democrat. We need to pound the bastards if they dare associate Joe with the Democratic party.

[blue neen]

19. That's total bullshit.

Everyone knows damn well that there is not a Republican out there who could lead us out of the devastation this country is experiencing right now. Lieberman is a sniveling liar.

REGARDLESS of party? Give me a break, Joe.

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

20. One Seat

There are 21 Republican Senate seats open in the 2008 Election. All we need to do is win one of them and then we can tell Holy Joe to go fuck himself and switch parties.

Is that motivation enough for us to work our butts off in 2008?

[TZ]

21. Worse than Zell

At least there I understand that there may have well been a mental issue (I heard a lot of people close to Zell were saying he hadn't been right in the head for a while...)
Liebermann has no excuse except for the fact that he is a moron and a snake who says anything he thinks will get him farther..hissssss

[Bill McBlueState]

23. well, so does everyone else

All of us support whomever we think will be the best President.

But anyone who's been paying attention for the last thirty years will have a hard time being convinced that anyone who's in league with the Republicans could possibly be the best choice.

[izzybeans]

24. This must mean he'll support the republican "whomever" it will be. You know

faux bi-partisan Joe and all.

[WI_DEM]

26. If McCain is nominated it will be a McCain-Lieberman ticket and I welcome it!

going up against two pro-war hawks.

[and-justice-for-all]

28. Yeah, ok..

LIEberman is still on repuke payroll...

[Richard Steele]

29. Coming from a guy who still supports B*SH, that means less than NOTHING.

Lieberman will support whoever will do the most for Lieberman,
regardless of party...or custom, tradition, rules, laws, the Constitution,
or the generally-recognized bounds of human decency.

[Hosnon]

31. As a genuine statement, I couldn't help but agree with him. However, I don't

believe that he is being genuine in stating that sentiment.

He's playing Mr. Middle.

And as a side note: I think he should use have used "whoever". According to GrammarBook.com:

1) Him + He = Whoever
2) Him + Him = Whomever

"I'll support ____ will be the best President." = 1) "I'll support him." AND 2) "He will be the best President."

Therefore, "whoever" is the correct choice.

Anal a bit???

[HCE SuiGeneris]

33. Eat my shorts! Liebersacko'shit. eom

[Clinton_Co_Regulator]

34. How about "thanks" to his supporters on DU?

There were more than a few.

[me b zola]

35. I don't see them show up for any of the post election LIEberman threads

I feel that they owe us all a big, fat apology.

[Clinton_Co_Regulator]

36. So do I

[JerseygirlCT]

37. I'm more and more convinced he's bucking for VP under McCain

what an ass.

[frogcycle]

39. if this country could elect that pair

after the current debacle, it would once and for all demonstrate that democracy is a failed concept.

[sammythecat]

38. After all, it's no big deal what party a candidate

associates with.

This guy is nothing but a self-interested creep.

I'm going to be really unfair and juvenile here for a moment and say that the fucker even looks like a creep. Ever since he tried to give Cheney a blowjob during their debate in 2000 I've had nothing but disgust for him.

[elaineb]

40. Y'all are seeing this wrong. I think this is GOOD news...

...because I was so sure he intended on throwing his complete support to the Republican candidate. At least he's stating that the Democrats have a SLIGHT chance of his support in 2008. Good on you, Joe!

:sarcasm:
