The senators' positions with the group, which describes itself as a grass-roots advocacy organization

that word dosen't mean what you think it means, senators

Vets for Freedom

But are they for the Truth? Why only Freedom? Why not Vets for Freedom AND Truth? And considering their mission, add in douchebaggery.

Vets for Freedom, Truth and Douchebaggery. That's got a nice ring to it.

Sounds like someone looked into the group after their attack ads, which prompted Joe and Lindsey to drop out before the story was broken.

In other words: McCain's policy only applies to those in known positions. Only leave when it looks like your cover will be blown.

Lieberman is a retarded douche. He stands in complete solidarity with anyone who supports killing Arabs and Muslims, for whatever reason. Even if that person also supports annihilating the Jews (Hagee), it's all gravy as long as they also want to kill them some Muslims.

Worthless sack of shiat doesn't belong in any party.

So does Hillary and Gore.

Why doesn't Lieberman go ahead and declare as a Republican? Admittedly, since he's not my Senator, I don't keep track of him as well as I might, but I don't see anything about him lately that looks terribly independent.

I didn't like Hillary when I was younger because she hated on video games with Joe. As my political knowledge evolved, my feelings didn't change for either of them.

It appears my home state (CT) has finally caught on to him, though.

Yeah, but that was mostly Tipper Gore's thing.

They'll vote him back in in 2012.

sure they did.

/sarcasm

a lot more convenient that McCain having to actually live up to his own rules.

Nestea Plunge: Lieberman is a shameless scumbag.

And treasonous.

See, CT is weird. On one hand, we are rich - so we should be voting Republican. On the other hand we are well-educated and in the crunchy northeast, so we should be voting Democratic. Third, we have many Jews and blue-blood old people. They vote Lieberman.

But he's backing McCain, and CT is not going to turn red this November. When's he's back up for re-election they will bring it up several times.

Joe Lieberman (Senator (I)srael)

There are pockets of "rich" for certain, but as an ex-resident you seem to be overlooking that 40% of the population lives in cities (Bridgeport, Waterbury, New Haven, Hartford) that are not exactly middle class nirvanas.

Fairfield County, with the exception of the Bridgeport area and much of Stamford/Norwalk, has gone Republican in recent past.

I used to be a Joe fan because he knew how to get more than our fair share of pork. But now that I'm on the outside looking in, it's fairly obvious that a lot of that goes to defense and particularly to EB and Sikorsky. Without EB, the whole SE corner of the state would be unemployed and homeless, save for casino workers. Once Joe fails to get appropriations for EB, he's toast.

I really hate lindsey grahamn, he is a truely awful senator. Basically I runs around all day, with his akward nose in mccain's asscrack.

I was sitting in traffic in columbia sc one day and saw a big tour bus with patriotic cram painted all over the side, like helocopters and soldiers and stuff, and it said "veterans for freedom" It was a real wtf is that tacky thing; interesting to know who's bus it was now.

Marcus Aurelius: Vets for Freedom, Truth and Douchebaggery.

And now, a message from Vets for FTD:

[Gravitas voice]
Barack Obama...claims he supports the military. But who's military is he really supporting?
www.theforce.net


I guess because he is a secret muslim, he is AGAINST PEACE AND FREEDOM ACROSS THE GALAXY....

I heard one of those ads the other day and i almost busted out laughing before remembering how stupid the average TV viewer is. Their big charge is that Obama has Never sat down with General Petraeus in Iraq for a briefing on the war!.


As if Junior Senators are allowed to summon actve duty military leaders to meetings whenever they want.

" General Ike? Senator Joe Sneed- yeah I'm the new guy from Rhode Island. Listen I know you are bussy with that whole D-day Thing and all, but could you drop everything and come over to my office to personally explain to me how the whole war is going and precisely our strategic objectives? Say, tomorrow, noon-ish?"
