Danbury CT paper chides Lieberman for getting stuck on 2006 election

If only he'd given as much of a shit about 2000. (Follow link to read about Lieberman's "fixation with seating charts." It's so Joe. :eyes: )

The Lieberman hand-wringing might be interesting to him, but even his strongest supporters must be wondering when the senator will move beyond the 2006 election.

So it was interesting this week to hear that Lieberman had proposed a war tax to fund, as he said, the war on terrorism as well as health care for military personnel and veterans.

"Every American has a responsibility to share in the burden that our soldiers are now carrying in defense of our freedom " and that means paying the costs of this war more adequately and equitably than we are today," he said.

Lieberman's right that soldiers are carrying the burden. But is this a serious proposal? No. Lieberman said he doesn't plan to seek a vote on the idea.

Even those who didn't vote for Lieberman in November have higher expectations for him than this. Pouting about the last election? Proposing a war tax without any plans to pursue it?

Then there's his fixation with seating charts....

1. Bitterness and rejection by the democrats has driven him nuts.

He's a nasty, petty, vile, ugly, bush**-ass kissing little man.

2. He has his seat for 6 years; if there was a time to act petulant

and get away with it, now is it.

I suppose one could make a comment on the intelligence of his home state, but I'll forgo.
