Can't find the original of this quote, but this commenter remembered what I saw. Lieberman is crowding the plate. He needs to be beaned. Maybe take away his batting helmet first. Poor Joe, still in need of TLC and some attention from the media. He's posturing and making noise. The question the media should be asking is if he is listening to his constituents or Aetna, United Health and Wellpoint--the three companies that monopolize his state. 68% of Conn voters support the public option, his state has a public option so Joe, answer why you aren't listening to the voters. I have yet to hear any journalist ask him that simple question. My cure for his opposition is to remind him that his chairmanship which he holds dear to his heart is subject to the democratic caucus and he can be removed and replaced--his response to jeopardizing his chairmanship over the public option was "Oh, God no." firstread.msnbc.msn.com
