Here's Joe on the Ray and Diane show from yesterday morning (mp3), in just his latest attack on Democrats - and Harry Reid in particular:

Q. There was a big flap yesterday about some comments made by Harry Reid concerning Gen. Petraeus, and the outgoing Peter Pace, saying they were incompetent, basically. Is that useful, and do you know that to be true or not... It's generally being reported in a lot of places.
LIEBERMAN: I don't know what Harry Reid is up to. I was very upset, even offended, by what he said about General Pace and General Petraeus. Look, you call General Pace incompetent? That's abs - this is a man who has devoted his entire life to the Marine corps, the service of our country, defense of our country.

Q. Why is he doing this? Why is Reid doing this?

LIEBERMAN: I have no idea. Then to say that Petraeus is out of touch? I mean, Harry Reid in Washington says David Petraeus, who's in Baghdad, away from his family, heroically trying to rally our forces and succeed over in Iraq... that he's out of touch? I mean, it's just - the danger here - my colleagues who have been opposed to the war have said "we're opposed to the war, but we support our troops." But when you start to attack the top two generals, you know, that's... that's wrong. I hope he apologizes, I just hope he misstated...

1. That's it--YOU'RE OUTTA THE CAUCUS NOW, ASSCLOWN!

Harry Reid has suffered your sorry traitorous shitbag self for far longer than he should have.

[BlueStater]

4. Reid keeps being to nice to this little turd and Lieberwuss keeps stabbing him in the back n/t

[whistle]

7. Exactly, Lieberman needs to resign now, even those who backed him in CT

...are turning on his sorry war mongoring ass

[otohara]

2. Lieberman Is Laping Up All This Attention

he now receives.

Who ya gonna call when you need a nasty ass comment about a democrat from a so called democrat?

[Solly Mack]

3. someone get that needy little nothing a blankie

[TwilightGardener]

I love that breathless "Oh my heavens, well I NEVER!" bullshit

he pulls out of his ass to indicate his smug self-righteous indignation. Fucking prick.

[Sparkly]

5. So much fake hysteria! Reid didn't oust Pace. Are they upset about that?? nt

[Liberal Veteran]

6. You know, at this point, I despise Lieberman more than Bush.

They are both wastes of air, but Lieberman always seems to have something nasty to say about democrats, but NEVER says anything bad about republicans.

[rec_report]

12. *Exactly.* The self-serving little maggot should have changed parties...

a *long time ago,* and been a moderate Republican on domestic/environmental issues, and conservative on foreign policy/defense issues.
But no.
LieberBush knows he would have lost CT running as a Republican, so the no-integrity pondscum ran as a Democrat.
:mad:

8. 2009, boys and girls.

And then, Joe gets his new office, in the senate office building broomcloset and no committees.

It'll be bad for the people of CT, but hey, you get what you vote for.

[rec_report]

14. Hey! Not all of us in CT voted for the maggot!

LIEberBush got a big (illegal) cash infusion from KKKarl Rove's team - just before the 'election.' Ned Lamont filed suit, but the Reichwing Hartford Courant chose to bury the story (of course).

9. I listened to what Reid said, and his "out of touch" remark was

linked to Pace & Petraeus being YES MEN to Shrub!!! Sorry Joe, but damn it, that's what they are! I think the Generals are obliged to sound loyal to their CIF in Public, but these guys never wanted to tell Shrub the truth in private either! At least Gates seems to be doing that. Of course, I don't know how long he's going to keep his job by doing that either!

I personally am TIRED of Reid saying he's sorry...all Dems apologizing! Tell the damn truth and stick to it!

10. Right-Private military jets, golf courses, private clubs, huge salary, health benefits & pentions

paid homes, seeing no actual combat duty, just ordering others to die for BushCo & corporate profits & imperialism.

Fucking Lieberman; "this is a man who has devoted his entire life to the Marine corps, the service of our country, defense of our country."

Generals have very, very decadent, spoiled & cushy lifestyles!

[rec_report]

11. Yeah, where were the 'insurgents' when LIEberBush was in Iraq?

n/t

[Major Hogwash]

13. Does Joe know he sounds like an idiot more each day to real Democrats?

I've seen the picture of him with a helmet on, it didn't help his image as a warmonger any.
