lightcastleSince the whole spectacle of Droopy Dog Joe Lieberman acting as the face of "why the US won't get meaningful health insurance reform" is so depressing, I present some various mean thoughts on the subject.
If Lieberman didn't exist, would Democrats have to invent him?
The only explanation for why he keeps getting let back in is that they actually /want/ him around to play "bad cop," so that they can say to progressives "we tried, but we just couldn't get that black sheep Joe on board."
King Joe pwns Rahm. (That's only if you don't believe the "Joe is the point man to play heel for Obama" theory.)
The Rude Pundit is not happy with Holy Joe.
We focus our rage on Lieberman out here in Left Blogsylvania not just because he is the kind of man who sucks his own cock in public and then grins, his semen-slicked teeth shining in the klieg lights, to the delight of Aetna and Wellpoint executives just before they shove his ass full of cash and tell him he can have it after he shits it back out. That would be enough. But it's that Lieberman actually takes pleasure in dicking over the Democratic caucus. Motherfucker said he supported the Medicare buy-in and then bailed? What kind of fuckery is that? That's just doing shit for the sake of doing shit. He's Shylock with less motivation. And that just makes us wanna go Berlusconi on his face. (Rhetorically, of course. Of course.)
