Oh ho ho, Joe Lieberman is getting it now! His total divorce with the Democratic party commenced yesterday when his legislative director up and quit on the first working day after the Republican convention, and today we have witnessed SEVERE ESCALATION. In the most “Harry Reidish” move ever, Harry Reid has brutally punished Lieberman by BANNING HIM FROM WEEKLY CAUCUS LUNCHES. Those Democratic leaders, they sure know how to shake a stick. “Now he’ll have to pack his own goddamn lunch,” Reid said, except he didn’t. [Roll Call]

Thank you Connecticut for the Constitution, and this fuck face.
Geewilikers. Give’em light heck, Harry.
All the more time for Joe to get Sarah up to speed on the last 2000 years in the middle east and introduce her to those nice AIPAC folks.
They need to have the luncheons in the second story of a building so that when Joe shows up they can THROW HIM DOWN THE STAIRS, like multiple people did to Damon Wayans and Kadeem Hardison in I’m Gonna Get You Sucka.
S’okay, Walnuts will pack his lunch for him. And also pack his fudge.
Could Joe not just tell the Democrats to fist themselves and caucus with the GOP, giving them the majority?
“I will reach across party lines, and then I will just kindove join the other party and be a jackass.”
I bet they give him mad dirty looks in the hallway, too.
Wow, imagine what the Democrats would’ve done to him if he’d given a speech endorsing a Republican senator for Presidi….oh, I see.
Well, that’ll teach him!
[re=89944]MARCdMan[/re]: Next year, he’ll have to caucus with them to keep up a filibuster. President Palin won’t sign those bills into law, though.
PFFT! And here I thought they were gonna make sammiches with that neck thing of his.
That sternly worded memo can’t be far behind.
This could only get better if at the next lunch they serve bacon, egg, and cheese (the non-kosher trifecta, for the goyim out there) at the next meeting.
On bagels.
PORK BAGELS!
reid must be sure of a dem. victory in nov. or else he’s an idiot. joe will definitely move his seat to repubs. after thid insult. of course i’m no pol and they think differently.
btw, the dow dropped this pm after barney frank stated on cnbc how cool he was to bailing out risk takers. the small banks knew for a year how deep their problems were. omg, financial morons can lose money.
[re=89939]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: You’re welcome.
Did you get your Randy Newman song?
Now I hope you feel guilty, dickwad.
I pray Hopey’s first act as POTUS will be to take the hand he’ll have just used to swear in on the Koran and give Dopey a public wedgie so ginormous that Dopey’s balls pop out through his treacherous eye sockets.
[re=89958]loquaciousmusic[/re]: Yes I do. You are an exception because you are not a dickwad, dickwad.
I got the song… haven’t had a chance to play it yet though.
No really…. why do you people vote for Liberman (I know you didn’t), are people in your parts regretting that there decision?
[re=89942]norbizness[/re]: fucking brilliant.
Not so incidentally, nearly all songs written by the Smiths can fit this situation:
Is It Really So Strange?, Sweet and Tender Hooligan, Half a Person, Panic, Girl Afraid, Shakespeare’s Sister, William It was Really Nothing, Oscillate Wildly, These Things Take Time, Stretch Out and Wait, This Night Has Opened My Eyes, The Headmaster Ritual, Asleep, Unloveable, How Soon is Now, Nowhere Fast, I Want The One I Can’t Have, Barbarism Begins At Home, Girlfriend in a Coma, A Rush And A Push And The Land Is Ours, Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me, Unhappy Birthday, Death At One’s Elbow, I Won’t Share You, The Queen Is Dead, Frankly Mr. Shankly, I Know It’s Over, Bigmouth Strikes Again, The Boy With The Thorn In His Side…and lastly, Vicar In A Tutu
Now Old Joe will have to get his roast duck the old fashioned way.
With teh sexy talk:
“You’re a naughty little mallard, aren’t you.”(insert Joe’s special brand of adenoidal punctuation here)
…next thing you know they are going to take his Senate parking space away! Give ‘em hell Harry!!!
I was hoping for atomic wedgies and swirlies in the little boys room and no being allowed to sit next to him in the Senate cafeteria. And Robert Byrd appointed to steal his daily milk money, too.
[re=89956]HomoPolitico[/re]: Or, how about do like some guys I know who were trying to ditch a Kosher observant prick. They told him they were going to lunch at the Int’l House of Pork…
I know He’s ugly is not a great comeback.. But he is so fucking ugly, it’s distracting.. I can hardly focus on what I want to write..
[re=89939]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: But not the Bill of Rights – which they ratified in 1939. A little slow on the uptake?
[re=89965]magic titty[/re]: FTW. Talk about fucking brilliant.
I heard there’s be a new monthly gathering to avoid at the Senate luncheonette:
“Brown-Baggin’ with Joe.”
[re=89944]MARCdMan[/re]: Merely ‘caucusing’ with the GOP won’t do it. At least not until after the election. The ‘majority’ rules are set until the end of the session on December 31, 2008. However, Lieberman being kicked out of the caucus in November, after the election, Obama and Bidden winning and being barred from serving as senators, Johnston (SD) and Kennedy (MA) being sick and not being able to make a “caucus call” puts a Democratic Majority in jeapardy for the next session of congress. Harry Reid will have to play real hardball to prevent a rules fight unless Democrats pick up about three senate seats (which can be quite possible in CO, NH and NM).
[re=89965]magic titty[/re]: Does this mean that I as an alienated Smiths-listeing youth have something in common with Lieberman? Please say it ain’t so.
How long before the good people of Connecticut throw Joe out?
[re=90023]JamesMichaelCurley[/re]: FYI-Tim Johnson’s doing much better and has resumed his Senate duties… http://www.rapidcityjournal.com/articles/2008/09/04/news/local/doc48bc76c956f39663116713.txt
[re=90047]vintageways[/re]: No. He’s the kid who had no friends, but showed up to all your birthday parties, because your parents made you invite him.
Lunch the torpedoes!
I suppose I’ll be slightly happy if the only good thing coming out of this election is Lieberman’s relegation to irrelevance. Nah, WALNUTS will hand him a cabinet post, probably. SECRETARY OF LUNCHES.
This is really funny because I can see Joe Lieberman not having anyone to eat lunch with and sitting alone.
And the Republican won’t have him eat lunch with them either because they’d have to stop telling their antisemitic jokes (which Norm Coleman laughs sheepishly at).
[re=90023]JamesMichaelCurley[/re]: Please explain what you mean by SD and MA. Last I checked those were some kind of VD.
“You’ll never eat lunch in this town again!”
Dear Senator Reid (fuckwit, NV):
It’s about time. Did you also give him detention? Or a really vicious noogie? Did you unfriend him from facebook? Attaboy Harry. How’s it feel knowing that Nancy Pelosi (Marxist-SF) has bigger, brassier balls than you?
Thanks for nothing.
Your friends,
The majority of the Democratic party.
p.s. Paging Ned Lamont…..
[re=89939]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Have you heard Lieberman’s theme song?

Each morning of every day, Joe thanks God in prayer for his life, and that he is not a slave and that he is a Jew and that he is not a woman. Maybe Joe was stretching it a bit when he added that he is the messiah and a truly funny guy and everybody loves him. I see, by the picture posted, that he has chicken in hand and is sending nuclar secrets telepatly to the Mosad and his cousin Sarah.
Karl Rove: “Joe, you’re getting very sleepy, Joe, very sleepy. You will vote with Republicans, you will vote with Republicans….
[re=89942]norbizness[/re]: there’s two ways outta here…
Will the persecution of the Jews never end?
Poor Joe has gone astray, like he was lost in the desert… except, rather than following Moses, he’s following Rev. Hagee to Armageddon and is trying to get all his Hebrew friends to come along. Why does Joe Lieberman hate Jews?
Harry Reid is finally taking a stand and banishing Joe from the caucus lunches, but not on principle or as punishment for Lieberman’s behavior. Reid just got fed up with Joe constantly asking, “Are you sure this is kosher?” in that annoying voice of his.
