Happy Birthday Cole Neal! |
Senator Reid told Lieberman that he had to step down from his position as chair of the Homeland Security Committee if he remained in the Democratic Caucus. Lieberman did not accept this offer, which means that his only redress is to go around Reid and petition the Senate Democratic Steering and Outreach Committee to keep his seat.
We’ve watched for years as Joe called war opponents traitors, lied about wanting to bring the troops home to get elected, stabbed Democrats in the back and did everything he could to keep Barack Obama out of the White House. Lieberman laundered smears that even McCain wasn’t willing to launch himself.
No way.
Make no mistake about it -- Lieberman was openly threatening the Democratic Caucus in his press conference today.

Enough is enough.
Please sign the petition to the Steering and Outreach Committee, telling them it’s time for Joe to go.

In this Aug. 13, 2008, file photo, now President-elect Barack Obama walks down steps with his children and friends at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, Hawaii. As the first family prepares to move to Washington, Malia Obama, second from left, is looking forward to decorating her new room and already there’s talk of sleepovers at the White House. Sasha Obama, center, holds hands with two unidentified friends. |
The Mightiest
A lion woke up one morning feeling really rowdy and mean.
He went out and cornered a small monkey, and roared, “Who is mightiest of all jungle animals?”
The trembling monkey says, “You are, mighty lion!”
Later, the lion confronts an ox and fiercely bellows, “Who is the mightiest of all jungle animals?”
The terrified ox stammers, “Oh great lion, you are the mightiest animal in the jungle!”
On a roll now, the lion swaggers up to an elephant and roars, “Who is mightiest of all jungle animals?”
Fast as lightning, the elephant snatches up the lion with his trunk, slams him against a tree half a dozen times leaving the lion feeling like it’d been run over by a safari wagon.
The elephant then stomps on the lion till it looks like a corn tortilla and rambles away.
The lion lets out a moan of pain, lifts his head weakly and hollers after the elephant, “Just because you don’t know the answer, you don’t have to get so upset about it!” |
