Important! Let's HUMILATE Joe and the media for their website saboatage

[debbierlus]

Lies....

This issue should NOT be dropped. It is VERY important because it shows that JOE was the one using the 'despicable' tactics and it shows how the media parroted his claims with NO proof. Worse, I watched the bloggers disprove the story, and yet, it is still BEING REPEATED TODAY BY THE MSM.

This is a tactic that is often used on election day. A unethcial canidate will pretend to be a victim of their opponent by making up a story about their opponents 'tactics'....Invariably, the opponent will be vindicated that they never did anything wrong, but it usually doesn't matter because the election is over.

Mitt Romney made false claims against Pat O' Brien campaign tactics in the governor's race four years ago, and they were lies. But, he won the election, and the story was dropped.

LET'S NOT LET THIS STORY DROP.

Let's make a HUGE stink about this......Let's get it out to the public that this is one of the oldest tricks in the book. Let them know that the American people will NOT tolerate such PATHETIC games.

Who is with me?

1. where are the blogs that disproved it? I'm with you ;-)

I'd love to see the results.

I just tried to get into securesites, the host, and it's locked down. Not even a clickable link from the front page.

4. How about talking about his wife's career?

Lieb's smear campaign was only semi-effective. Totally sleazy but semi-effective.

Lieberman is asking to have his ass kicked again so I think the most effective and efficient way to do it is:
1) get Michael Schiavo to make the rounds with CNN, etc. and tlk about why HE supported Lamont
2) talk to the people of CT about what Joe Liebeman's wife does for a living
3) start calling Iraq "failed nation building" and stop calling it part of the "war on terror" since it never had anything to do with the search for bin Laden.

6. What does his wife do for a living anyway? nt

8. She works for one the largest lobbying firms in DC

He is literally in bed with lobbyists:

Mrs. Lieberman signed up with Hill & Knowlton in March 2005. The firm’s clients included GlaxoSmithKline, the British pharmaceutical giant that manufactures flu vaccines along with many other drugs. In April 2005, Mr. Lieberman introduced a bill that would award an array of new government “incentives” to companies like GSK to produce more vaccines—notably patent extensions on other products, at a cost of billions to governments and consumers.


Hill & Knowlton was a defendant in tobacco class-action lawsuits because of its role in propaganda disputing the deadly effects of smoking.

Other clients Mrs. Lieberman's employer included: Enron, the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI), the Saudis, the Kuwaitis, American International Group and Boeing.

So this is about much more than Lieberman's support for the failed experiment in nation building in Iraq.
