Remember "He's with us on everything but the war"?
Shithead.

Leiberscum will never go for any kind of health care reform because he has to protect his own interests which are the insurance companies.

Even though Hartford, Ct., was once called "the Insurance Capitol of the World" they have shed so many jobs that I don't think that title holds anymore.

Joe will put the insurance companies before his constituents like he does everything else. No one has seen or heard from him around the state. I despise Harry Reid's awarding this clown a chairmanship.....he should have been stripped of it, and tossed out on his ass. I loathe Lieberman.

His maxim is "Israel before US.

Actually, what's "next to impossible" is for Joe to be with the Democrats on "everything but the war".

Right.

Everything but the war, health care, presidential nominees, etc.

Talk about returning evil for good. But sadly, many of us saw this coming back then.

Any government that fails to meet the needs of large segments of the population for economic and social stability for a long time becomes less legitimate. As the government loses legitimacy, threats to replace it by one means or another rise.

The government then has two choices on how to deal with that loss of legitimacy and the resulting threats. It can either step in and do what is required so that fewer people face the problems or it can resort to more authoritarian methods of repression of those who threaten to replace the government in power.

China's communist government considers the Uighur population to be a threat because they reject the Communist doctrine based on materialism. That was also the problem with the Falun Gong and the Tibetan Buddhists. But it has also been the problem for the American conservatives who are trying to enforce their strange ideology. It explains the pressure to steal elections and conduct dirty tricks, as well as the expanded actions by right-wing extremist groups like the anti-abortionists, the racists and the anti-immigration groups.

That's also the basis for why Obama is dropping in the polls. Fewer and fewer people see him acting to protect them from the economy or from the American medical disaster-zone that is good primarily to make a few more people rich and occasionally provide pretty good medicine (but unreliably for anyone but the very rich.)

Holy Joe didn't give a crap when the Patriot Bill was passed real quick. This guy just needs to be sucked by a sink hole except that even the earth doesn't want such a self centered jerk who never thinks about anything but himself. There is nobody but nobody who I find more disgusting that Holy Joe. He's worse than Ben Nelson and Max Bucksrus and Evan Bayh and that is a statement in itself.
