Why Bush loves Joe (and Joe hates Ned) - a Connecticut perspective

hit the road, jack joe...

The Bush administration values Joe Lieberman because he has been a crucial ally in efforts to free Enron-style corporate crooks from regulation, transfer wealth to the wealthy, hound gays, trample on the rights of government critics and sacrifice the lives of thousands of Americans and Iraqis to dishonest, dangerous military adventurism.

Lieberman understands how, in campaigns, you can make people forget all that. You can change the subject by making fun of your opponent [Ned Lamont] for being rich. Then, with millions of dollars from wealthy donors, you can reinvent your record.

paul bass at the hartford courant evidently doesn't take prisoners... go read it yourself for a complete historical synopsis of lieberman's republican record...
