News Flash for Jim Gerlach

Joe Lieberman is NOT a Democrat Jim. He left the party formally last week to run as an independent. He really left the Party long ago though. He ceased being one of us when he allowed Bush to kiss him. Stop misleading people in your press releases. Gee, and you wonder why we're angry. Try these:

you voted for an illegal war

the very first vote you cast in Congress was to exempt Tom DeLay from strict ethics rules

you lied on your FEC reports

you voted for CAFTA

you accepted money from Tom DeLay's PAC

you allowed national security risk Karl Rove to raise money for your campaign

I could go and on and on, but then you might think I'm angry. We cannot have that now, can we? 2500+ dead Americans in Iraq for nothing is nothing to be angry about is it? The only rational question is, why aren't you?
