As we reported a week ago, Sen. Joe Lieberman has now publicly
stated his intention to pull in signatures for a petition that
would place him on the November ballot as an "independent" should
he lose the Democrat primary vote.
Right now, this is simply doing the smart, conservative thing,
given the weird political environment we are living through.
Lieberman is still expected to win his primary, but that hasn't
stopped people like Hillary Rodham Clinton from betraying just how
nutty the Democrat Party is. She announced her support for
Lieberman, but linked it to his winning the primary. If not, then
he was out of luck.
Good riddance, we say. If the Republican Party were smart, it
would be encouraging Republican votes for Lieberman, paying for TV
ads for him, and doing whatever they could to help a true patriot
and an honorable man who shouldn't have to put up with the
simple-minded shenanigans and foul-mouthed ravings of the loony
Daily Kossacks and Deaniacs. This is a Democrat Party that under
Dean's leadership and Kos's political mania is currying the favor
and financial support of corporate entities that enable child
pornographers on the Web. This is now a party that would prefer the
votes of convicted murderers in their party's elections than
Lieberman's vote in the Senate.
Come on over to the light side, Joe. You and the Republican
Party would be better for it.
