  • Joe Lieberman is among the few representatives of this representative republic who comes close to complying with demands of natural law: what Mother Nature, God or Whatever Power decreed to be the reality of the real world, God, democracy, capitalism, the US Constitution and free, fair and affordable commerce.

    Demanding that every corporation, farmer, business, outsourcer sweatshop and nonprofit, tax-exempt, organization and church markets the cost in the wholesale and retail price of his or her product and service of every worker, consumer, and taxpayer paying healthcare insurance premiums or pay healthcare provider and living (including pension and healthcare), enabling parents to love, nurse, nurture, discipline, protect and provide for every child (job) they conceive and fund schools, infrastructure, national security, government services and etc. with money derived from wages or independent business profit.

  • What a turncoat. That's the respect Lieberman shows our president? After he begged to be let back into out party? I think after we win our healthcare reform, Lieberman should be kicked to the curb. He's not even a good Independent!
