Connecticut Newspaper Apologizes For 2006 Lieberman Endorsement

My comment below cut off after 1st sentence.

What the¦..????

Oh my God! the all wise editor of a newspaper apologizes for endorsing Joe Lieberman! What water was he drinking, him and his editorial board? How come a large number of Democratic primary voters
in Connecticut knew about Joe(I'll run for vice-president; but I will keep my job just in case)Lieberman?
Once again, the press has misread the "the minds of the people" and got it wrong once more. They have eggs on their face and well-deserved. Lieberman goes on, like the energizer bunny doing more and more harm and trailing McWar like a tail; thus sending a signal to 'Jewish" voters that McWar is to be their man. And then we say it is racist when African-Americans, because of Senator Barack Obama's great qualities, vote for him in droves, and it is not labeled as "Ethnic Pride".
Hillary whines about being asked the first question on one debate and she is not called on it.
Bill Clinton questions Barack Obama's patriotism, and they complain he is being compared
to Joe McCarthy. Well you can look it up. Bill Clinton, in his desperation, took a page out of Joe McCarthy's playbook. Have the Clintons no sense of shame, at long last? Enough said.

And you guys still think the media leans right?

The Democratic party basically ran Sen. Liebermann out on a rail and then this paper wonders why he ran as an independent and he supports John McCain? If the paper was fair and balanced, it would have no problem with Liebermann courting McCain for the VP slot.

But we already knew by the headline that they aren't fair and balanced, didn't we?

The last line is the best, a nice way of saying "Joe's career is ends on Jan 20, 2009." He becomes completely irrelevant as soon as we get one more Dem Senate seat.

Is there a method for CT citizens to "recall' him? He still has four years to do whatever damage he can come up with.

THIS MAN IS A DISGRACE TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. THOSE PEOPLE IN CONN WHERE CRAZY. I DON'T SEE WHY THIS MAN JOIN THE REPUKE PARTY.

I would like a similar apology from the moronic voters of Connecticut. Joe Lieberman is the Senator from Israel not Connecticut, and is has been plain for all to see for years. Liebeman doesn't even seem care about CT. He has his eyes on an Executive job where he can cause as much havoc in the Muslim world as he can. And if has to be McInsane's nanny to get there, so be it.

Joe Leiberman will help McCain with the Independents in the general election, although he is probably not too well liked by his former Democratic friends...

Lieberman should be recalled by the voters of Connecticut.

The fact that they voted for Lieberman after voting for Lamont puts Connecticut vuters in the same realm as Florida and Ohio when it come to voting SNAFUs. Connecticut should do the right thing and get their turncoat, runamuck, turncoat out of there.

I'm sure there is tons of buyers remorse in Connecticut these days however, now that Lieberman is safely re-elected and can't be recalled I don't think he cares very much how sorry anybody is. He pulled the wool over Connecticuts eyes, they fell for it, we all have to live with it.

Lieberman really cracks me up. How's the push for war with Iran going Joe? Never trust a politician with dual Israeli citizenship.

One question? How badly has LIE-berman hurt this country in money and lives. We are so far in debt over this war that LIE-berman and friends like BUSH strated for personal reasons that it will take MANY generations to get us out of. And the CORPORATE CONTROLED MEDIA was there to back BUSH AND LIE-berman at every stage even NOW they back McCain.

Too little, too late.

We are, however, entertaining offers of your first-born.

In the meantime, explore alternate employment opportunities in a field more suited to your inclinations... like photocopy machine maintenance.

Lieberman is a neocon Zionist. Period!

Can we get a revote?

The newspaper's circulation went for Lieberman by 1-5%, and frankly the independent state GOP apparatus raised lots of money for him instead of the Republican candidate, who was terrible. The Lamont grassroots organization was fantastic, and I got canvassed in an area that gets skipped over for everything except tight state representative races. Were it not for the bombardment of pro-Lieberman ads targeted at the low-information voter, Lamont would have won the Senate seat.

The Day was not instrumental in Lieberman's victory. Blame middle and eastern Connecticut and the Hartford Courant and New Haven Register for endorsing Lieberman. Seriously, the Day's endorsement had little bearing on the result.

Also, the Day's editorial board is about three people, and they are more interested in local issues like moving lighthouses and not having natural gas pipelines run through their city.

Can we swap Connecticut for Puerto Rico?

Joe Lieberman [ I ] Israel

I don't understand. I thought this was the man we were all supposed to want for vice president. I thought everyone who voted for Nader's ticket instead was a traitor to goodness and decency and social justice.

I must have gotten that wrong.

This ignoble individual would span the entire political spectrum and, ally himself with the devil to gain power.

What? Are they apologizing for making a mistake, or being stupid, or I guess both, huh?

We have the fine folks of Connecticut to thank for returning to office a wrinkled warmonger and blithering hypocrite. To think they preferred him to Ned Lamont!

Why can't voters see such men for who they really are? It shouldn't take the intelligence of a theoretical physicist or cosmologist to see the obvious for what it is.

the damage is done now.

Lieberman's actions have all the stink of him hoping to land a veep or cabinet appointment from McCain.

Once McCain is dispatched in November, watch just how conciliatory to Democrats he suddenly becomes.

I'm so sick of seeing those two Muppet faced losers together in every picture.

They look like Ernie and Bert!
