Strip him of his committee appointments

Lieberman willing to star at Republican convention


Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), the Democratic Party's 2000 vice presidential nominee, is leaving open the possibility of giving a keynote address on behalf of Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) at the Republican National Convention in September.

.....

Appearing before the Republican convention carries some risk for Lieberman. His Democratic colleagues could seek retribution by taking away his gavel on the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee next Congress.

Lieberman has had a long leash this Congress because his decision to caucus with Democrats - despite losing Connecticut's 2006 Democratic primary - allows them to hold their narrow 51-49 majority. If Democrats pick up more seats as expected in November, and Lieberman angers Democrats along the campaign trail, some privately expect there might be an attempt to deny him his bid to retain his chairmanship.

One Democratic leadership aide said losing his chairmanship could happen in that scenario, but "the bar would have to be very high."

That's because Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has a close relationship with Lieberman.

Come ON Harry!

Why does this ass rash have ANY committee appointments in the first place? He is nothing but a sum-bag opportunist. Shame on those voters for re-elected him, I wouldn't insult retarded people, those voters are more mentally challenged than that.
