10. Mr. B, your ignorance is profound.

> No, they're likely to represent all of their constituents, not just soi-disant socialist youth.

LMAO! Joe Lieberman represents all his constituents like Saddam Hussein represented all Iraqis.

"Joe Lieberman and I have been friends and colleagues for 38 years. We ran for and won seats in the Connecticut legislature as a team of reformers in 1970. He was my state senator and I was his state representative. He rose to Senate majority leader as I became speaker of the House. With others, we formed the Caucus of Connecticut Democrats, a progressive coalition, to further the causes of peace in Vietnam and justice at home.

"I have supported him in every election he has had – until now. This year I am supporting Ned Lamont to unseat Joe."

--Irving Stolberg, former Speaker of the CT House in the Hartford Courant


"I feel I have a special obligation to respond to your July 6 editorial, “Lieberman’s run.” I am a liberal activist. I was also Lieberman’s roommate at Yale.

"Lieberman is a good and decent man personally, but he has also become a cheerleader for George Bush’s bloody, arrogant and disastrous war on Iraq.

"As a friend, I wish for him the best. As a Democratic voter, if I lived in Connecticut, I would be voting for Ned Lamont."

--David Wyles in the L.A. Times

Congratulations, Mr. B! You've just renewed your credentials as a DLC tool.

At one time, Ned Lamont owned a fund that *contained* Halliburton stock. As did Joe Lieberman. These funds were bought as a package. The Halliburton stock was one one small part of them.

The difference is that Ned Lamont no longer owns such a fund while Joe Lieberman still does.

Mr. B, you remind me of Dan Quayle: Ignorant and smug at the same time.
