Quote of the Day: Joe Lieberman on himself


Why do we even bother? Well, because some Democrats apparently think Lieberman is still one of their own. News flash -- he's not:

HOST: Could you see yourself being a Republican or is that...

LIEBERMAN: It's possible.

HOST: ...far-fetched.

LIEBERMAN: Yeah, yeah. No, it's possible. A good old-fashioned New England moderate Republican.

Yeah, yeah, Lieberman is fairly moderate compared to the rest of the Republicans in the Senate, let alone the House, but what's clear -- come on, is it not? -- is that he's not a Democrat, just a nominal one, if even that, to keep his seniority. And the fact that he can see himself as a Republican -- and you know he'll do whatever he needs to do for the sake of his miserable political career, his self-glorified ego and ever-fluctuating whims, and the lingering resentments of his bitter soul -- is just another straw.

Oh, by the way, the camel's been dead for some time.

Allow me, once again, to borrow a hilarious joke from Stewie Griffin (originally directed at Meg): In an attic somewhere, there's a portrait of Joe Lieberman getting prettier.
