Comments for Let Lieberman Go; He's an Albatross at http://www.pacificfreepress.com , comment 1 to 2 out of 2 comments http://www.pacificfreepress.com Fri, 05 Dec 2008 04:29:43 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/224-let-lieberman-go-hes-an-albatross.html#comment-370 I strognly disagree. Let us not forget that Lieberman strongly disagrees with the President on the enviornment, on stem-cell research, on drilling for oil in Alaska, on abortion, on the Federal Marriage Amendment, on flag desecration, on women's role in the world, on gay rights, on economic policies, on tax cuts, on the role of the state in general, on gun control, and on many other domestic issues. Significantly, Lieberman is an enviornmentalist whereas Bush is an anti-enviornment extremist. Bush does not just have a foereign policy agenda, but a right-wing domestic agenda. On all the issues I just listed, Lieberman stands against this Bush's right-wing domestic agenda. Domestic issues are sometimes issues of even more passion to Republicans than foreign policy issues. As a result, Lieberman would be a bad fit in the Republican Party dominated by people who strongly disagree with Lieberman on every single one of the domestic issues I listed above. The result of this is that Lieberman would not be a likely candidate to become a Republican. The Democats having control of both houses is a psycoligcal milestone that having control of only one house will not give the Democrats. Simply contorling the Senate makes the Democrats seem for more powerful and influential than if they did not. By no means should the Democrats throw away their oppurtunity to control both legislative houses of government. That is why Demorats must pray for the recovery of Sen. Tim Johnson and make Lieberman as welcome in the party as possible. - Anonymous Sun, 17 Dec 2006 09:48:37 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/224-let-lieberman-go-hes-an-albatross.html#comment-163 I agree 100 percent. Don't kick the sumbitch in the ass when you slam the door on him, though. You'll get brown stuff all over your shoe. - Jimmy Montague Fri, 17 Nov 2006 01:22:58 +0100
