“Lieberman Hijackers” Win HoJo Skirmish

hojoskirmishThese men — a medical physicist and a poli sci prof — came head to head at a HoJo’s over the future of U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman’s phony political party. One left. The other recruited five more official “hijackers” to the anti-Joe cause.The occasion was the second organizational meeting of the Connecticut for Lieberman Party, the vehicle created to propel Connecticut’s junior senator to a general election win in 2006 after he lost the Democratic primary to anti-war challenger Ned Lamont. Lieberman created the “party” to have a line on the November ballot. Then he forgot about it.

One must ask themselves what do the two capital I's in Joseph I. Lieberman (I-CT)... (No I don't think so :-> ) With his track record ever since he came into CT via Abraham Ribbicoff, what was his and Abe's agenda for America? I've never heard of a politico so desperate to protect his hidden agenda to the point of changing parties and even kisses Republican president's in public. Didn't they take oaths to support US of America ONLY and reject all others!!! I think we got the wrong Senator during the last election.
