		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;…Either someone has some catastrophic dirt on this guy and he sold his soul rather than have it come out in the open or he’s always been a superficial shit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ooh! Ooh! Pick door number two!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;1)”Resected Attorney General” - possibly true;&lt;br /&gt;
2)”Centrist Democrat on the Senate floor” - bullshit;&lt;br /&gt;
3)”Al Gore’s high-minded running mate” - unbelievable bullshit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lieberman has always been a Republican pretending to be a Democrat.  When he ran for the Senate seat in 1988, Lieberman ran to the right of the Republican Lowell Weicker.  So much so that he received the endorsement of Bill Buckley in the National Review.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;From near the end of the NY Mag article:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Look,” [Lieberman] tells me, “I like Obama, I was in the civil-rights movement, I went to Mississippi to register voters. I’m not going to attack Senator Obama.” (He brought up the same patronizing line, more or less, at the Agudath dinner.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1.  “I like Obama, I was in the civil rights movement” is first cousin to “Some of my best friends are black.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.  “I was in the civil-rights movement, I went to Mississippi to register voters.”  Lieberman’s a natural soul-mate for McCain.  They both use something brave and noble that they did in the 60s as their credential — singular — and don’t dare let it go.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;He’s been a turd for a long, long time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remember his holier than thou crap as he advocated for Clinton’s impeachment?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh yeah, Wonkette got that right.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;“&lt;em&gt;Nothing in Joe Lieberman’s long and placid career—a respected attorney general in Connecticut, a centrist Democrat on the Senate floor, Al Gore’s high-minded running mate—could have presaged his current status…&lt;/em&gt;“&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is the peculiar thing. Either someone has some catastrophic dirt on this guy and he sold his soul rather than have it come out in the open or he’s always been a superficial shit.  A person with integrity doesn’t wake up one morning transformed into a person who has none. I’m betting he’s always been slimy shit.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
