Politics - Joe Blowhard

Let's get this thing moving again, shall we?

I'm a CT resident. I am a registered "unaffiliated" voter, and have been since I switched from the Green Party in 2000. Prior to that, I used to be a registered Democrat, but soon realized they are just as corrupt and incompetent as the GOP.

So, here we have Joe Lieberman. VP candidate. Used to be a party favorite. I even voted for him twice. But, my how things do change. I started wondering just who Joe represented beginning a few years back. Here we had a Democrat heavily involved with right-wing groups whose sole mission is to promote mass censorship on all forms of media. He bitched about boobies and naughty words in movies. Stood behind the "V Chip" (I guess it's too hard for parents to turn the channel or hit the "off" button, huh, Joe?). And, to make matters worse, joined the board of consultants of the Parents' Television Council. To top off his "liberal" record, as some moronic pundits and GOP dolts claim he is, he joined with those pieces of shit who dared get the government involved in the Terry Schiavo case. Joe, you lost my support forever.

While a lot of attention has been paid to the race between Lieberman and Lamont and each candidate's stance on the war, the race is about much more. For me, it's that he's aligned himself with the same right-wing extremists that have done a good job of taking over nearly every office in Washington. While the rest of the world advances, we have these scumbags trying to bring us back into the Puritan ages - scientifically, sexually and socially. What a great way to live in the modern day world!

While the voters have spoken overwhelmingly, Joe thinks it's his mission to continue because the party has been taken over by extremists. Well, perhaps it's time he looked who he's aligned with in wasting and see who the true extremists are. Joe, be a man and call it a day.
