“After all, it was CHAIRMAN Lieberman that gave us "Heck of a Job Brownie", through his 50 Minute Confirmation Hearing.

Real Good GI JOE!! Real "tough questions"!!

If thats what he gives us as HLS Chairman, then he is not qualified to be chairman of ANY Committee!!”

“Lieberman has been peaved ever since he lost to a Democratic challenger, Ned Lamont.

He had had the support of the Democratic Senators during the Primary but during the General Election, the Democratic Senators supported "their party's" candidate - Ned Lamont; as Lieberman could not take defeat and created a One Man Party.

The Republicans supported Lieberman and did not give or vote for their own party's candidate.

Now Lieberman is simply doing his payback - - and costing the rest of us a Healthcare Bill with a Public Option.

Jonathan Alter hits the nail on the head in this column:

It's time to give Lieberman his wish and let him become the Republican that he is.”

“For a good month, at least.

After all, that's their normal timeframe for these types of stories when "nothing else going on in the world" !!

Case in point, when was the last time you Saw Any News From Iraq about our Soldiers? You do remember them, right? Guess they all came home and I missed the news about it.”

“Great! I can see it already.

The networks that have nothing better to put on television will probably be doing a "Reality TV Show" from a prison cell.

DId Hollywood run out of actors / actresses, along with producers and writers for "Regular TV Shows", or is this their "marketing methods" to sell Old Sitcom DVDs?

I got reality show fatigue a long, long time ago.”

Guytar replied on Nov 27, 2009 at 16:25:56

“Reality TV is one of the cheapest TV production formats. That is why it has become nauseatingly common. Three production crew and a couple of unpaid hysterical fame wannabees can create many hours of low cost broadcast time. Survivor has a lot to answer for.”

“Speaking of that, Im sick of reality TV and want to see someone get off their bottoms and CREATE a good program with no filth, violence, ignorance, or profanity that is interesting. Tall order, i know.”

“That's not as unusual as you may think. Sante Kimes (convicted of m-u-r-d-e-#) and her husband crashed a Bush event and had their picture taken with the VP. However, the two people who crashed the Obama's State Dinner are being investigated by the "Secret Service". I am definitely not trying to make that list.”

“What good is Lieberman as Chairman of The Homeland Security Committee, anyways?

Remember "Heck of a Job Brownie"? I'm sure the folks in Louisiana do.

Lieberman was Chairman of that committee when Brownie was Confirmed to Head Up FEMA. The confirmation process took less than 50 minutes to confirm Brownie, under Lieberman's Chairmanship.

Repeat, Less Than 50 MINUTES To Confirm Brownie. (10:37 AM to 11:19 AM)

“I love how Lieberman says he is against the Health Care Bill because of it's COST during a Recession.

Hey Joe, since you are against the Health Care Bill because of it's cost during a recession, are you going to tell The President to get our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan due to the Multi-Trillion Dollar Cost of the War?

Well Joe?”

“"They hold up money for Veterans, the unemployed and now the sick. Why do people support them at all?"

Apparently, ALL REPUBLICANS Have ...

.. Never Served in The Military
.. Never Been Unemployed
.. Never Had A Family Member Who Has Been Sick

And that's why they could care less about the rest of the country.

Somehow, I don't think this is possible but that's how they vote.”

None of them had a clue as to what is going on in the world or where a person stands on the issues, even though they voted for her, are buying her book and adore her.

Just wondering, is the entire GOP this inept?”

“Hey Boehner,

Have you been able to read Sarah Palin's book? Was it too big for you and other Republicans? Did you complain about it's length?

Well, if you had no problem with the book, then simply shrink that "Massive 2000 Page" Health Care Bill, for your reading ability, down to FONT SIZE 12 (like Palin's Book), change the spacing to SINGLE SPACE and you should be able to breeze right through the real 400 Page Bill.

It's amazing how manageable a Congressional Bill can become and inexcusable to not read, when you get rid of the large font and go to single spacing.

Now it's no excuses Boehner!!”

“Think of this as the Afghanistan War's unique "Draft", without calling up people that are not enlisted.

Once they get their tax bill for the war, the country will start to turn on the war real fast.

Those "Remember The Troops" magnets on people's cars, will suddenly have a price tag for every family and not just the One Percent in the entire country that keeps getting called up - over and over and over again.”
