10-reasons-why-joe-lieberman-sucks

Joe Lieberman is currently serving his fourth term as a Democratic senator for the state of Connecticut. You might remember him from the 2000 presidential election, in which he was Al Gore’s running mate. Back then, not many people had a problem with Lieberman. However, in the years since 2000, it has become painfully obvious to many people that Joe Lieberman sucks. Here’s a list of reasons why:

1. He’s not really a Democrat: While he officially considers himself a member of the Democratic party, Lieberman is more conservative than many Republicans. His own party refused to nominate him as a candidate in the 2006 election, so he had to run as an independent to retain his senate seat. He’s even been holding fundraisers for Republican candidates these days.

2. He supports the Iraq War: Lieberman has remained a firm and optimistic supporter of the Iraq War, in spite of the ever-increasing evidence that the war has been poorly handled since its start and is currently in a state of horrible f*ck-up.

3. He wants us to attack Iran: Lieberman has been quite vocal in urging military strikes against Iran.

4. He wants surveillance cameras to keep an eye on you: On a recent appearance on ABC’s This Week, Lieberman said he wants the federal government to “more widelyâ€? use surveillance cameras to spy on people across America.

5. He opposes violent video games: Lieberman is one of those politicians who likes to raise his profile by blaming all kinds of horrendous crimes on violent video games.

6. He turns a blind eye to illegal wiretapping: Recently bringing up the threat that London’s terror attacks could come over to America, he called attempts by congress to investigate the Bush administration’s illegal wiretapping program “partisan gridlock” that was leaving us vulnerable to attack.

7. He refuses to hold Bush accountable for Katrina: Prior to the most recent election, Lieberman made demands that the White House turn over potentially embarrassing documents relating to its handling of the Hurricane Katrina disaster in New Orleans. Once re-elected, he backed off.

8. He’s funded by porn: Despite his socially conservative views and opposition to sex in video games, Lieberman has accepted thousands in campaign contributions from corporations that profit from the sale of pornography.

9. He’s a pawn of Fox News: Lieberman has been a favorite of Fox News , since he has been so willing to go on the conservative channel and play the role of someone in the “opposition” party who bashes his fellow democrats.

10. Bush loves him: Lieberman has been a loyal ally of the president in the Senate. Here’s a video of Bush showing his appreciation by enthusiastically embracing Lieberman in 2006:

  1. re: video game thing

    NOTE that he actually is a MAJOR INVESTOR in a children’s video game manufacturer. Talk about being a hypocrite – the REAL reason behind his opposition to violent video games is to SELL MORE OF HIS. What a piece of sh1t.

  2. wow,what a total fuckhead. and nice job putting the ” all of the above” answer to the poll at the top.

  3. World Religion Resources…

    I couldn’t understand some parts of this article, but it sounds interesting…

  4. Lieberman sucks and it was his own idiocy that kept Gore out of the White House in 2000.

  5. LIEBERMAN RETIRE OR SWITCH SIDES OLD FART!!!! What a trader!!!!! BURN IN HELL!!!!!!

    Just saw Joe’s speech at the Repub convention – congrats, Joe, on being Benedict Arnold. One fact stands above all: George W. Bush is not wanted at this convention, and what does that say about Republican ideology? Lieberman deserves to go down in history as a loser. If anything, this makes me feel better: he fuct things up for the Democrats, and now he’s adding his magical touch to the Republicans – hey Joe, now you’ll have both parties hating you. It makes me cringe that my tax dollars pay for your salary, you should be flipping burgers for minimum wage, you scumbag.

    Lieberman just suck in general… he’s a kiss ass who happens to be a leech on John Mccains balls. And as far as Mccain himself just becuase he served in the navy and the war does not mean you are qualified to run this country look at Sadaam. If he is elected it will be just like one of those movies were the army general does what he’s not supposed to just to get ahead but he ends up being the bad guy and what always happens to the bad guy…? He dies hopefully thats not the case here but the man is obviously a moron.

  8. Joe Libbermen is a Trader! Joe Libbermen can roast in hell!

    Obama/Biden 2008!!!!!!

  9. Um…can you all please spell right? You are making democrats everywhere look retarded…”Joe Libbermen is a Trader! Joe Libbermen can roast in hell!” Come on, at lease spell his name right. And “traitor” is different than “trader” which I saw one of the other posts say. It makes me mad when children get on the internet and say stupid shit like this so they can pretend to be grown up. Go back to your cartoon network and get a life.

    Peace.

  10. [...] Just a quick list of famous conservatives and Republicans who are supporting Obama/Biden: Chris Buckley, Colin Powell, Larry Pressler, Arne Carlson, Charles Fried, Dennis Hopper, Douglas Kmiec, and the Republican mayor of Fairbanks, Alaska, Jim Whitaker.  There are a bunch more, and who does McCain have?  Joe Lieberman.  And that guy sucks. [...]

  11. [...] and illegal wire-tapping, wants to invade Iran, he supports anti-choice licence plates (!) and sucks in so many other [...]

  12. Arne Carlson, Charles Fried, Dennis Hopper,

    Hey MikeP,

    When complaining about stupid kids and their spelling mistakes, you could probably do so in a grammatically and politically correct manner. It helps to add legitimacy to your cause. You should capitalized the first word of a sentence. You should capitalized personal nouns such as “Democrats”. You should not use words such as “Um” or politically incorrect terms such as “retarded”.

    you are as much of a stupid fuck face retard as that trader Joe Libberman is. perhaps you should go back to your cartoon network as well? stupid assholes like you give democrats a bad name as well.

  14. Wow! John’s dad is really pissed at Mike!

  15. Mr. Lieberman sucks.
    He suck up to the Republicans.
    He suck up to Big insurance companies in his state.
    He like to suck, so I consider him a “sucker”.

  16. Joe Lieberman is bought and paid-for scum. He’s accepted more than a million dollars from the healthcare industry lately. And guess what? He is SUDDENLY deeply opposed to the public option. This lying, hypocritical piece of shit used to get votes by claiming he would fight for universal healthcare — but now he is literally threatening to filibuster with Republicans to keep it from happening. Seriously, kick this guy out the party. Then out of congress. And then out of the USA.

  17. Joe pretends he is independent but he votes for the big corporations…and against middle America…he won’t vote for health care reform due to his wealthy supporters and corporate donations…vote him OUT…he is a snake!

  18. Joe Lieberman will sacrifice America for israel and I can’t stand him for that.

  19. Old Joe needs to get on his Elmer Fudd hunting cloths and get his shot gun and go look for that crazy rabbit. He is is of no value to the world in the senate. He is a tool of the insurance companies and a whore for the right.

  20. Old Joe needs to get on his Elmer Fudd hunting cloths and get his shot gun and go look for that crazy rabbit. He is is of no value to the world in the senate. He is a tool of the insurance companies and a whore for the right.

  21. He is the worst of the worst, but I am pretty sure that his days in the Senate are numbered….one way or another.

    and surprise/surprise: the mofo got a deferment like his War-Hawk buddy Dick-head Cheney. The worst of the worst–what a titanic POS.

    A spokesperson told The Hartford Courant in 1994 that Lieberman received an educational deferment from the Vietnam War draft when he was an undergraduate and law student from 1960 to 1967. Upon graduating from law school at age 25, Lieberman qualified for a family deferment because he was already married and had one child, Matt.[9]

  23. Lieberman is a narcissistic corporate whore. LOVES feeling important, LOVES the largesse… in-kind contributions from the massive healthcare captors who have once again destroyed health care reform in this country… he could not care less about anyone but Joe. How completely fucking sad, someone bestowed with such an opportunity for good, only to bow to a corrupt existence. I only wish that I could understand how this useless turd wound up being re-elected, despite losing the primary election. He had better hope against karma and reincarnation, for he will surely return one day as a dung beetle.

  24. Joe Liberman does suck, indeed!

  25. Amazing to think that one asshole like Liberman stands between health care for hundreds of millions and returning to the terrible status quo.

    Liberman’s low self esteem & need for the limelight puts so many in jeopardy that is would seem comical if it weren’t so painfully true. I hate Joe Liberman.

    On another note, just yesterday I saw a bumper sticker that read (no kidding) ‘Don’t blame me, I voted for Palin.’ Really..I’m not kidding. People are Insane. (Thank you for what you said about Palin today, Govenor Swarzeneggar.) Good Website!

  26. F*ck Joe Lieberman. That b@stard needs to join the Israeli military and go fight himself instead of pushing for AMERICANS to go fight their wars.

  27. Lieberman, (R-Israel) is not a real American, and should move to the country he favors over America, the fascist state of Israel

  28. Liberman should be tried for conspiracy along with former President Bush and Dick (Shotgun)Cheney for starting an illegal, unwarranted, undeclared War in Iraq. Ten’s of thousand’s have died because of them.

  29. You know, I never thought I would be more ashamed of a fellow Jew since scandalous Ehud Olmert, but Lieberman surely earned the the title of Most Dastardly Man in American History. All his lobbying has served no purpose but to help grease the palms of the fat cats silently slipping Bennys into his wallet.
