Joe Lieberman isn't just a surge fan, he's a Mark Steyn reader as well. Sweet, sweet centrism -- now featuring the far right!

i wonder if lieberman, peretz, jim nantz, and mark steyn get together to discuss the impending islamic doom. the connecticut party for joe lieberman for connecticut meetings must be a hoot.
as much as i generally enjoy being right, my pleasure in racking up i told you so points about joementum is more bitter than sweet.
Anyone get the sense that Goldberg wants Lieberman to jump? IIRC, he was/is pro-war, and among the "serious" people worried about Iran.
Jump, Joe. The rule organizing this Senate is fixed in the firmament, and only 60 senators can change it; even if Joe becomes a Republican, he'd simply codify what we already knew.
If the Dems win a few more seats in 2008, I'd love to see them boot him from the caucus. I won't hold my breath, though.
Iraq is the last war America is going to fight for 20-30 years.
Maybe the warheads are secretly lefty peaceniks?
Let's screw it up real good so America never forgets what happens when we invade other countries?
Jim Nantz?
What about Phil Simms? Billy Packer?
now we also know that when it comes to lifetime appointments to the supreme court, joe lieberman considers the filibuster to be beyond the pale, but when it comes to non-binding resolutions, not so much....
...which argues that Europe is succumbing, demographically and culturally, to an onslaught by Islam...
Which is a (very) short step away from foaming at the mouth and screaming about the mud races.
"I'm the Lorax," [Lieberman] said. "I'm saving that one tree."
He's the Lorax alright, but he's not saving any damn trees. He's chopping them down as fast as he can.
the real question is this sort of nut with these sorts of views on Middle East politics was welcome in the Democratic party in the first place.
When Jeffords jumped to the Democratic causus, the Senate re-organized immediately. I don't think it takes a supermajority.
That's because Daschle had made a deal to add that to that session's organizing rule, Rat (partially due to the leverage granted by the 50-50 split). As far as I know, Reid and McConnell didn't come to any such agreement.
My colleague Steve is correct. The Republicans could have held out for a rule that would have changed control if a seat flipped parties, but they would have looked rather ghoulish considering it was Sen. Johnson and not Sen. Lieberman who was foremost in the news at that point.
To show you how scrofulous his fall from corpulent grace has become- like der Lieber Christopher Hitchens also loves the Steyn masterwork. These are the twisted idiot brothers of Himmler.

I'm glad he shared this little nugget with the Connecticut voters last year.
Oh.
What a complete tool.
