Lieberman to Fight On!

I feel bad that the Dems axed Joe Lieberman in such a distasteful manner. At least he is going out with a bang when he runs as an independent in the coming election.

"I think it would be irresponsible and inconsistent with my principles if I were to just walk off the field," Lieberman said in an interview with The Associated Press a day after his loss to the political newcomer in a race that was considered an early referendum on the
Iraq war.


It is too bad because this guy truly votes his conscience and tells it like it is. He didn't toe the party line of the Cut-And-Runners and instead did his own thing. I hope he wins the Primary or at least seriously thinks about running for President in 2008. I also agree with Cheney when he says this about the Dems.

"When we see the Democratic Party reject one of its own — a man they selected to be their vice presidential nominee just a few short years ago — that would seem to say a lot about the state the party's in today," he said.

Yup he was a Democrat through and through in everything except the Iraq War and they turned on him like rabid dogs. A man that stands up for his principals and what he truly believes in is torn apart by the so-called "Progressive" party. I guess "Progressive thinking" is just echo-chambered group-think. While "Progressive measures" are punishing those that don't agree with the entire party line. Man he looks beat in this pic:
