FWIW, I thought this libertarian rant had at least a few chuckles at Lieberman's hypocrisy. His loss to a moonbat dem campaign should not hurt. Reagan democrats get more of a party that left them.

Lieberman was one of those Democrats who got 9-11. This write goofs on him for what he was pre-911 and then for what he was post-911. It's just a hit-piece. Sad.

[DoughtyOne]

Lieberman has been one of the less objectionable idiots on the left, even though has all too often been insufferable too. It's difficult to feel sympathy for someone too ignorant to disassociate themselves prior to this, from what has become the democrat ash heap.

[tallhappy]

This "Reason" bozo apparently didn't think Lieberman was liberal enough.

[thoughtomator]

The author ruins an otherwise good article with his misplaced mentions of Terri Schiavo. That any libertarian could support having a citizen starved to death, deprived of that most fundament right, the right to life by court order of all things, is abominable and unconscionable. The "freedom to put disabled family members to death (to make sure they don't talk about how they got disabled)" is not on this libertarian's list of freedoms to defend.

[DesScorp]

Yet more proof that Libertarians are worse than useless.

I didn't know Tim Cavanaugh was from Connecticut!

His observations may be 100% correct, but this rant is also 100% hypocritical.

A rant is right. Waste of bandwith!

When all is said and done, Lieberman is/was still nothing more than a liberal Democrat--i.e., the enemy; someone to be defeated.

His support for the President's war effort does not confer absolution. He's a political opportunist, just like the rest of the lying scumbags that infest DC. Indeed, I submit that we saw the real Joe Lieberman during the 2000 campaign.

It's the business of the people of Connecticut who they elected to represent them. My fervent hope is that the rejection of Lieberman will further expose the virulent anti-Americanism that has pervaded the Democratic party.

I about fell out of my tree last night listening to Savage imitate Joe. Also LOL'd when he suggested Joe was a good guy and would have done well for himself as a liquor store owner in the back with his feet up sleeping while the young clerk worked out front. It was funny as heck.

It's too bad that his support for President Bush's war in Iraq provides such an easy explanation for the downfall of Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-CT).

This year's elections are not truly a referedum on the war, as the liberals claim. It's about payback for the Clinton impeachment, and the Democrats will try to leverage any issue they can to get Bush impeached. If they thought they could get Bush impeached over the White House Easter Egg Hunt, they would use it. Lieberman had to go because he would not go along with impeaching Bush. He wouldn't even try to game it, as he did with the Clinton impeachment.

Cynthia McKinney's defeat last night must have been disheartening to the agitators pushing their impeachment-driven agenda. But they got Lieberman.

Shockingly, no mention of the fact that Joe has NEVER held a private-sector job after he got out of graduate school.

An amazing accomplishment - to never be in a responsible position your entire life.

[stinkerpot65]

I don't buy it. I think Lieberman is sincere, but mistaken. I would never vote for him, but I like him.

I'm no libertarian but this piece is fantastic; the best piece on Dweeberman today! Loserman is an opportunistic, unprincipled statist who today has one issue (admittedly the Big Kahuna: national security) kinda sorta right. That's not enough and Joey deserves to have his smarmy, two-faced, Al Sharpton's butt-kissing self kicked to the curb. I'm appalled at the support the Nutmeg Nosegay is getting here on FR today! Fie!
