Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore, following the Connecticut primary defeat of Sen. Joe Lieberman, issued a direct threat to his fellow Democrats: Denounce the war in Iraq or you’ll get what Joe got.
In a letter to his Web site visitors, which served as fertilizer for blogs everywhere, Moore raged that Ned Lamont’s anti-war victory was the beginning of a revolution among liberals.
Writes Moore on his Web site: "Let the resounding defeat of Senator Joe Lieberman send a cold shiver down the spine of every Democrat who supported the invasion of Iraq and who continues to support, in any way, this senseless, immoral, unwinnable war. Make no mistake about it: We, the majority of Americans, want this war ended -- and we will actively work to defeat each and every one of you who does not support an immediate end to this war.”
Moore referenced the 2004 Democratic presidential ticket – John Kerry and John Edwards – as two Democrats who voted for the war who have now "seen the light,” but because they "sided with Bush . . . may never enter the promised land.”
Moore saved his most pointed criticism for Sen. Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic frontrunner for the presidency in 2008.
"To Hillary . . . You will never make it through the Democratic primaries unless you start now by strongly opposing the war. It is your only hope. You and Joe [Lieberman] have been Bush's biggest Democratic supporters of the war. Last night's voter revolt took place just a few miles from your home in Chappaqua. Did you hear the noise? Can you read the writing on the wall?”
You DemocRATS better get on the stick and denounce the war. Or else.
The fat boy has so much mean spiritedness in him, that what he doesn't throw Bush's way, he liberally heaps on his fellow travellers.
It's time Lieberman abandon his foolish independent run and go the Zell Miller route. These people have just stabbed him in the back and tossed him into the Atlantic with cement shoes. Withdraw from the race, Joe, denounce the Dems, and become an analyst for Fox News Channel.
No kidding.
And leave anti-American scum to take his place in the Senate? I've had my fill of the traitors residing there, thank you.
He's running and he has my support.
Dembolla?
For sure. The moonbats feel so empowered they know not what they do. I love it...
She suggested that we surround Iran instead of fighting it.
I pointed out to her that US troops are in countries on both sides of Iran.
Threatening Hillary Clinton with electoral death is not a smart move, IMO.
Hillary never forgets a slight - even from fellow Dems. And a threat from Michael Moore for her to fall in line won't be pleasantly received.
Payback will be a bitch against Michael "Fatass" Moore.
You tell 'em Michael!
It looks like fatso may not be the saviour the democrats running the Kerry slug line imagined. I wouldn't drink the punch at the party.
exactly..the dems are taking this PRIMARY as the final word..there is still another election to go..I monitored the DU yesterday and they were so freakin happy Lamont won..I'm gonna monitor them again durin the real election..just to watch them cry..
LOL. The 35% Party
You used someone else's body in the picture. Michael Moore's not that thin !!!
This is really sad.
A vibrant strong Republic needs a loyal opposition party, not a moon bat lunatic group of anti American freaks
They are going to panic withing two weeks of the real election.
