Joe Lieberman Has No Soul
Joe Lieberman has emerged from the ashes destined to play this critical role in his senatorial career. He wants to be the man to kill health care reform. He lost the Democratic primary in Connecticut, but nationally this seemed like an unworthy end for a long time champion of the people. We were heartened to see him hang on to his seat by going Independent. We didn’t want to see a senator with such high stature replaced by a lowly newcomer.
But Lieberman underwent a metamorphosis. Maybe it was age or maybe it was bitterness, but he’s turned into a mean old man. No longer interested in helping his country rise to a higher level, he has fallen back to siding with old money interests. He is more comfortable now being a shill for capitalists. His humanitarian self has turned to ice.
Perhaps when the democrats in his state abandoned him he decided to abandon them. Like a Mayan priest in a human sacrifice ritual he intends to rip out our hearts and hold the still beating blood soaked organ in his hands and take a bite out of it. This is how he intends to go out, in a lavish show of treachery and brutality that will immortalize him as a Brutus, holding a blood soaked knife he just stuck in the back of the people who trusted and depended upon him.
What made you do it Joe? Have you decided in the end your true friends resided in office building penthouses and only there can your feats be appreciated? Only there will you receive the trophies you deserve and have been cheated out of. Only there will you be appreciated.
The birthers are looking for Obama’s birth certificate. They believe he was foreign born and not qualified to be president. I want to know if Joe Lieberman’s still has a soul. I believe he’s lost his and is no longer qualified to debate among the living.
