The obstructionist de jour and royal ass extraordinaire Connecticut senator Joe Lieberman has threatened the DNC that he will run as a Republican in 2012 if they don't stop pressuring him on the health reform bill in the Senate. His reasons for objecting against the bill is the expansion of Medicare include those as young 55 years and the public option will increase the debt, yet he was oh so for it in 2000 when he was the candidate for Vice President on the Democratic ticket.
I was laughing when Al Franken shut you down after you went over the allotted 10 minutes of open debate on the bill, and your buddy John McCain try to use this incident to make an empty hypocritical speech about "I’ve been around here 20-some years. First time I’ve ever seen a member denied an extra minute or two to finish his remarks. … I just haven’t seen it before myself." Uh liar, and we all know it.
The little obstructionist has said that he is doing this on "principle, not politics", but seems to be coddling his buddy John "the Maverick" McCain and his foolishness last year. Principles my ass, Lieberman, we all know what is really brewing and if you run regardless of what your political affiliation is you are going to lose in 2012. Your constituents in Connecticut have made it known that they have an axe to grind against your ass and you deserve it. I wish Harry Reid would have thrown you under the bus back in January, but he was trying to be nice to your two-timing ass for the 60 votes in the Democratic Caucus in the Senate. Oh 2012, is the year you will get-got by somebody from your state on the ballot because even the majority of your own constituents doesn't even like you anymore.
