LIE-berman

Connecticut Independent (Democratic) Senator, Joe Lieberman, said recently that he may switch parties if the Democrats refuse to support funding for the troops. Connecticut is a dark blue state. I can only wonder what their reaction would be if he were to do such a thing.

Next to Vice President Cheney, Condoleeza Rice, and Alberto Gonzales, it seems that Joe Lieberman is President George W. Bush's best friend. Troop escalation? Yeah, Lieberman hopped on board. Even though Joe (for the time being) gives the Democrats a slight 51-49 edge in the Senate, it feels as if he's been on the other side of the spectrum for quite a while now. There's a reason Bush and company wanted Lieberman to win the Connecticut Senate seat, even if he was/is/might be a "Democrat." Whether the Senate is at 51-49 or 50-50, I see it as evenly split because of LIE-berman's presence.
