ANOTHER HuffffyPufffyTABLOID "headline".

"POLITICO"?????????

NO attributions?????????

Please.

Lieberman_is a charter member of the "Hartford Mafia"_.. campaigning in favor of "Universal Healthcare" & then kissing the rings of his handlers in the "Insurance Capitol of the World".

BUT.. He is also an unrepentant COWARD_who loves his Committee Chairmanship more than "life itself".

He is ALL bluster.. ALL the time & he will NEVER vote to filibuster­.. EVER.

After cloture is achieved (which WILL happen).. all the Dems need is a SIMPLE MAJORITY..­. 50 votes... (in case of a tie, Biden will vote FOR the Bill).

He threatened the SAME CRAP before.. & as I predicted, he BACKED DOWN when "push" (Rahm) came to SHOVE.

It's what he does.

It's what he'll do AGAIN.

This is a NON STORY.”

“She has new chesticles”

bluechao replied on Dec 14, 2009 at 15:35:55

“She as implants, but she got them a long time ago. She had a very slim, dancer's body when she was younger.

I actually saw her as Peggy Sawyer in London in the show "42nd Street" back in the 1980's, it was her first big part and she was amazing in it. I believe she was only 17 or 18 at the time (and I was 14), but she truly stood out. I didn't realize until many, many years later that it was her I had seen when I read an article about it - she had blond hair in the role and was a slim, young girl. Her being in that role was extra notable because of how she got the part, which I knew from reading the playbill. She started as the understudy, but got the lead when the star was sick one day and the producer saw her in the role, so made her the permanent lead - which is exactly what happens in the plot of the show, itself.”

“How many times must it be said. Tarp was funded during the Bush administration.”

Lorianne replied on Dec 12, 2009 at 18:56:41

“McCain voted for it + lots of Republicans
Obama voted for it + virtulay all the Democrats

Bush asked for Obama's advice on spending of TARP since he was on the way out the door. The Obama transition team worked closly with the bush Administration and the Democratic majority Congress on that deal.

In short, just about everyone in Congress participated in this insane plan (with voter sentiment running 100:1 against).

It was a bi-partisan f-u.

Bi-partisanship .. wooo hoooo!

And you know what? It was a BAD idea from day one.
Obama and Congress are still pursueing it and it's still a &^%* ing bad idea.”

lastep replied on Dec 12, 2009 at 18:43:51

“But overwhelmingly voted for by democrats. Bernie Sanders voted against it. Many conservative republicans from mostly the south did too.

The President elect at the time it was passed came and spoke in favor of the bill to congress. You do remember?”
