Joe Lieberman has spent every day of the last two years sliming the Democratic party in op-eds, interviews, campaign events, and Republican political conventions; he has called the current president-elect dangerous and unpatriotic in recent months. He has done all of this because back in 2006 he lost a state primary and watched as major players in the Democratic party put their weight behind the party candidate, which is what happens in politics. Also, he loves War. This is the larger picture. Now: why won’t Harry Reid strip away this asshat’s chairmanship already, and why is Lieberman pretending that he has leverage? One would think that a Supermajority could shed the one 66-year-old virgin who actively campaigned against it.
And with that we have today’s latest development!
“Senator Lieberman’s preference is to stay in the caucus, but he’s going to keep all his options open,” a Lieberman aide said. “McConnell has reached out to him and at this stage his position is he wants to remain in the caucus but losing the chairmanship is unacceptable.”
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.
Harry Reid will end up giving Lieberman a full seven chairmanships.
That’s all.
Lieberman Aide Threatens Reid: He’ll Bolt Dem Caucus [TPM Election Central]
I have the feeling that this is the point at which mild-mannered Harry Reid has security pitch Lieberman’s desk out the window, preferably with Lieberman attached. But I am all hopey these days.
Is it really this difficult to get rid of a known virgin? I mean really.
FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD AND HOLY…
Strip away, we don’t need this turncoat in our midst, in our caucus, and least of all in our Senate. Connecticut, surely there is some hobo on the streets who would clean up real nice and shiny and represent you better. Bring out the gimp.
C’mon Joe — enough threats. Get the f*** out. Go. Shoo. Are you still here?
Strip! Strip! Strip!
maybe Joe the Liarman can go work with Virgil Goode in their pretend-world where everyone is white and loves baby Jesus—oh wait, nevermind.
The implied message is that Joe thinks the Dems have a shot at 60.
What about the Alaska and Georgia vote counts does he know that we don’t yet?
Joe, have you been stuffing Eskimo ballots down your pants again?
Maybe we can have Lieberman perform some humiliating frat house stunts to keep his chairmanship, and then deny it in the end. I’d love to see him delivering pizzas to the Congressional Page housing in a dress.
Send him as US ambassador to Tehran.
‘And if he cheat…. I will crush him’
Screw Joe Lie-berman. Let’s cut to the chase:

Damn you and your epic fail, Harry Reid. The correct response was “And?”.
Reid just doing this to see how retarded Lieberman can be; Joe hasn’t disappointed so far.
Lieberman has GOT to have photos on Reid. Or Pelosi. Or Reid and Pelosi. Or Reid and Pelosi with Emanuel refereeing.
give him the most meaningless ones for 2 years, strip him as if he were about to lose his virginity in 2010, and have whoever runs Dem in CT whip his ass in 2012.
Joe has got to be praying for the Democrats to win Alaska, Minnesota, and Georgia. That gets the Democrats to 60 seats… but only if Joe stays.
Then Joe has the leverage to tell Harry that he must give Joe back his chairmainship. And take his virginity.
Reid should call him back for one more meeting under the pretense that the leadership is going to acquiesce, then Carl Levin should hit Joe with a fucking folding chair.
Kicking Lieberman out now will put the GOP in charge of the Senate during the lame duck session, which could be a complete fiasco.
My deli tray is also unacceptable.
He’s like pocket lint; no matter how hard you try, you just can’t get rid of it!
Cooperative game theory suggests doofusberg’s shapley value is high. Sorry - had to say that.
“We need to unite and come together to ignore all the stuff I said about Obama being a naive danger to the country and wondering if the country could survive a Senate with 60 democrats. It is important that I not be held responsible for anything I said or did or my constant and repeated attempts to slander the Democratic party and make sure it lost elections. I must never face consequences, that is the unity we need.”

Also someone should gag him in case he tries to talk-drone his assailants into a somnambulistic stupor.
Ugh. I am trying for something snarky but I’ve got nothing. Kick him out. Make him cry. He defines douche and don’t want to have to think about him ever again.
Reid isn’t a real Mormon. Real Mormons ruin their opponents’ carreers and take away the rights and privileges of people who disagree with them.
I think he should be put in charge of house training the Obamas’ new mutt.
Lieberman and Nader… is this some kind of an independent douche-a-thon?
ThePuckStopsHere: Oh man, there’s some professional shit going on at Sarah Palin’s “official” 2012 site.
“There have been a lot of people who have been very negative in the last few days about her despite all of the hype. She mentioned to us that there have been reports about her whereing a towel around, that she didn’t know Africa was a continent, that she was going rouge early, etc. The liberal media is definetly out to get her! Show her your support every day and she will get through the negative press.”
That was so funny it was like my last abortion, which I love.
Joo Liebercunt is a man-shaped pile of porcine fecal coliform
NewSpence: Naked upside down horns on the front yard? Or is that too Wisconsin-ish?
sing it
Unforgivable in every way
Burying Al Gore, Stumping for McCain
That’s why, asshole, its incredulous
That you have the gall to seek mercy from us
To ignore your evil would be unforgivable too
I just had an ostragasm.
I seriously cannot watch him talk anymore without seeing and hearing Droopy Dog. Thanks Jon Stewart.
Dump the Bum! That face would make such an awesome Halloween mask. Keep that, throw the rest away.
Has he even acknowledged Obama’s win or congratulated him? Joe didn’t just campaign against Obama; he can’t stand him. He will cut off his votes to spite Obama’s face.
I think he should give him the chairmanship and then I’m thinking Reid should re-enact that scene from the Untouchables where Al Capone calls together all his underlings and takes a bat to the one who was disloyal
You can tell he’s been palling around with W too much, since W loves the word “unacceptable” to describe things he can do fuck-all about. Every time he uses it I think “you keep using that word…I do not think it means what you think it means.”
The story of Joementum, as told by an 80s buddy cop thriller:
Joe “Monday” Lieberman has been given traffic duty in a smog-filled highway tunnel (chairman of the coast guard subcommittee) due to his Mavericky antics (appearing at the Repubtard convention). That’s precisely when the vaguely European bad guys (Democrats) hatch their nefarious crime plot (Barry Hussein agenda) and, in a dramatic gesture, his ornery commanding officer (Mitch McConnell) throws his gun and badge back to him and tells him to get back out on those streets. This immediately segues into an upbeat montage of Kenny Loggins songs.
American “Camp” Calls Lieberman “Unacceptable”
Headline fixed. As you were.
He’s a sore loserman.
I have grown to hate this mealy-mouthed fucktard more that WALNUTS. At least McCain is interesting in a train wreck sort of way. I really didn’t like this guy when he was on the reservation, much less now.
Wasn’t this guy supposed to carry Florida? Seriously, they didn’t put him on the ticket for charm or good looks: There was a square hole and he was supposed to be the square peg to fill it.
Maybe he is the albatross that the GOP needs around its neck right now.
On another note, I sure hope Reid is unfurling some elaborate jedi mind trick or elaborate trap on old Joe. The thought that he didn’t unload on him makes me nauseated.
Shame on Connecticut for sending this loser back to DC.
So that’s what it looks like when it sleeps.
I love this clown’s sense of entitlement. Show him the door. And when I say that, I mean get some angry bastard like Jim Webb to rip a door from it’s hinges and pummel him to death with it.
If I were Harry Reid, I’d reach across the aisle to Joe Lieberman… and grab his testicles in a deathgrip. Then I’d (as Harry of course) pull him real close, so he can smell my Nevada death breath, and then pull some badassmuthafuckah lines out of Pulp Fiction or Dirty Harry to use on him.
norbizness: You got to play out that professional wrestling pun a little bit. Here is your scene, as called by the immortal Jim Ross:
“Reid and Lieberman are talking. Their in the center of the room, Lieberman is going to shake Reid’s hand…WAIT!!!! ITS CARL LEVIN!!! What is here doing here?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! He’s got a chair. LEVIN JUST ANNIHILATED Lieberman with a chair. OH MY GOD. GET HIM OUT OF THERE.
NOOOOOOOO. This has to be the most despicable act in the history of the Senate!!!”
I think we need to do to this guy what Dan Savage did to Santorum. I propose that Lieberman shall henceforth be the embarrassing moment when you make a wet fart, and you put your hand down the back of your pants to check if any shit made it out, only to bring you hand out and find it totally covered. That’s my suggestion, anyway.
I suggested before that Lieberman be given an ambassadorship to get rid of him but now I’m afraid even Ambassador to the Moon would be too much to ask. The GOP doesn’t really want him since he’s not hardcore on so many of their issues, he’s obviously a traitor to Democratic or progressive principles, and there is no way to recall him. Time for extraordinary rendition.
Wait, wait… Why is Lieberman still in the caucus? Does he just show up and everyone’s too embarrassed to ask him to leave?
Decoy: Screwing quoting Pulp Fiction, maybe just sick Zed & the Gimp on him
Make him the Drug Czar!
His incompetence would kill the War on Drugs within weeks and make him feel all self-righteousy and stuff.
I say Guantanamo for that piece of shit.
Hillary helped elect Obama. Lieberman helped character assassinate Obama. Hillary doesn’t have a chairmanship. Liberman doesn’t have a place in the Democratic Party.
coolcatdaddy: I’ll toke to that!
Fuck Lieberman in the ear. Collins, Snowe, Specter and Lugar should all get some love before that shitstain.
Make him ambassador to Israel and then undermine him until he quits.
There’s no more room in the Unicorn Tank, especially for a putz who pissed on it.
MARCdMan: True. Lets wait a couple of months, then start all the Leibertastic antics.
Assuming that Barry has based his entire political career on episodes of the West Wing I think it’s clearly that time in the program for someone to get an ambassadorship: Joe Leiberman, Envoy to the country of Africa perhaps? Or somewhere really exciting and vital, like Finland.
I just read on Huff Post that Old Joe threatened to caucus with the GOP is he doesn’t keep his chairmanships (this guy deserve neither a chair, nor a ship) unless we acquiesce.
In the words of W: We do not negotiate with terrorists.
WTF? Everytime I saw that old bastard he was with McCain or he was slamming the Democrats. When in god’s name is Reid going to grow a pair and kick that old bastard over the the other, much smaller side of the Senate where he votes anyway?
“if he doesn’t” I meant to say
proudcitizen: Yes!! This is the perfect time to do it, just like in the Godfather movies, everybody gets it at the same time.
It’s pretty easy:
1. Strip him of every chair, honoriffic, and preferred parking spot he has.
2. Shun him, Old Testament style.
3. Take the tens of millions of dollars left over from Obama/Biden and sink in into the Senate race for Connecticut ‘12 against Joe.
4. Repeat steps 1-3.
Lieberputz deserves the full treatment, but this is not Hopesman’s way, nor does it help the Dems short or long term. Best to do this as he has all along, Chicago style, string him along: “Sure, Joe. All is forgiven. Bipartisanship ya know!” He’ll never know when the hammer is coming…
Unacceptable? Christ, Joe, you pathetic sack of shit, what’s unacceptable is your continued presence in the U.S. Senate. Yes, go to the republicans, you dickhead, and get your ass fully and truly whipped by the good people of CT when you come back up for reelection in 2012, you asshat.
God damn, I hate Joe Lieberman more than I’ve ever hated any one or any thing in my life. Can’t CT pass a constitutional convention to throw his sorry ass out of the Senate? Indict him for fraudulently impersonating a statesman or something? Go, Joe, go.
Now you all know why Anteater Joe was never circumcised; there is just no end to the prick!
Lieberman is the living incarnation of Elmer Fudd. If left alone he will eventually shoot himself in the face with his own shotgun. That is why he wears a WWED bracelet.
“Lieberman Camp Calls Potential Punishment ‘Unacceptable’”.
Funny, I was thinking of the same word when he pulled some of his antics during the presidential campaign.
I say we sic Rahmbo on him. He’d carve him up like a nice brisket and serve him for Passover.
flush him like the aborted fetus he is.
Cape Clod: A glorious image. Thank you.
lieberman can suck cock-ASS
can’t they just make up some committee he can be on all by himself, and it can be in the basement, and eventually he will just shrivel up and not annoy us any more? I just find him more annoying every time i see or hear about him and this picture you use makes it worse, but that’s ok
MARCdMan: Point taken. Wait until after the Inaugural Address, in which Barry declares the new Marxist American Republic of Islam, then (in a public ceremony in front of Walter Reed) strip Lieberperson of his chairmanship and assign him the Senate subcommittee on non-ferrous metals. Won‘t happen, though. Unacceptable. Harry enjoys the vigorous thrusts he receives from Joe through the anal pore too much to abandon such an intimate experience.
I hope Liebermorph is simply left to dangle. Let him betray his voters by reversing himself on long-held positions, show he has no core—they’ll get tired of his spite and dump him. If he votes with the Dems, fine. But he should have no committee positions other than cloakroom tidy-upper. I really think it’s important to approach this calmly and rationally, let common sense be our g-g-g….gahhhmmpphhhga…when his alien captors extracted his charisma they forgot to remove the anal probe!! GRAB SOME VICE GRIPS! BETTER YET, THWACK HIM WITH THE CHAIR!! HANG HIM BY THE SHORT HAIRS!! STOMP HIS NADS!! GRAB HIS ANKLES AND FLUSH HIS HEAD!!
Wow. ALL-CAPS rage feels pretty good.
The the person who said control would change if he switched….no,it would not. The only way control ever switches is by special condition, agreed to prior to a two year session (the last switch we had when Jeffers switched was a special condition), and no special condition exists.
There is no practical reason not to kick Joe out, right now…other than the fact that we are dealing with a load of financial BS, and it would be destracting from real work that needs to get done, and a possible expulsion of Ted Stevens.
So, Harry offers him Vets affairs, and Joe turns it down, leaving Harry little choice but to “drag things out”, make one more offer, and then kick his butt right before recess, so even if the Republicans attempted a quorum call to force the issue it would be a moot point.
In any event, it is going to be a sad Christmas for Joe….luckly he is not much of a Christmas kind of guy.
Why do you keep saying Lieberman’s a virgin? If the shot wasn’t cropped so tight, we could see Brent Bozell takin’ the Straight Talk Express up his poop-chute in THAT VERY FOTO.
Move his desk down to Storage Room “B”.
Kill the motherfucker already. He’s practically begging for it.
chascates: Might I suggest ambassador to South Ossetia, Zimbabwe or Afghanistan?ggtt
The anger against Joe Lieberman goes back to 2006. He was not the only Senator who continued to support a forever occupation.
But even then he was unique as a Democrat in going out of his way to taunt those whose support he demanded.
I don’t know what this means in terms of his reaction to the loss of the chairmanship. Is he going to kill himself? Start a nuclear war? Take his ball and bat and go home crying to Hadassah or madrassa or whatever his wife’s name is? Publish a book “Bad Things ’bout Harry Reid”? Much confusion here.
Lamont ‘12!
Or me. Crap, I’ll only be 28.
Send him to Gitmo. Isn’t that where all traitors go?
Reid is a spineless wonder. Lieberterd shouldn’t get a chair or even be allowed to sit for that matter! I say they bring back the stockade and have Lieberterd locked in it while the Senate is in session and have the other Senators throw tomatoes in his face! Let me make one change. How about hitting him in the face with a cactus?!
LBOtomist: Isn’t the WWE based in CT? And shouldn’t taking out Lieberman be a job for Degeneration X, who would do it in an effective and highly amusing manner? Or perhaps Y2J can go all biblical and apply the “walls of Jericho” on Liebertraitor? (Sometimes there’s just nothing else to watch on a monday night.)
Ok this is how it’s gonna go. Obama hired Rahmbo Emanuel to top gun for him because he knows Lieberman needs a big fat stinky gefiltefish delivered to him in the dead of night, wrapped in a copy of the Chicago Jewish News.
If that doesn’t work he’ll just stab him in the eye.
oh and btw-
“They shook hands. But Obama didn’t let go, leading Lieberman - cordially - by the hand across the room into a corner on the Democratic side, where Democratic sources tell ABC News he delivered some tough words for the junior senator from Connecticut, who had just minutes before hammered Obama’s speech before the pro-Israel group AIPAC in a conference call arranged by the McCain campaign.
Watch video of the encounter on the Senate floor HERE.
The two spoke intensely for approximately five minutes, with no one able to hear their conversation. Reporters watched as Obama leaned closely in to Lieberman, whose back was literally up against the wall.”

As the antique, but still menacing, rappers say: Supersoak that ‘ho.
Rahm needs to leave Lieberman a flaming bag of feces on his porch for Christmas.
we all know liebermans political career is over in 2012 but lets not hasten it…instead lets make him finish out with the gop hacks he ran too after 9-11. put him in political pourgatory so we can all gawk at him and say “hah-hah!”.
