WTF Is It Now?!?

Lieberman: "wehhhhhhhhhh!"
WATB has hissyfit over a photoshopped pic of him in blackface that was posted by firedoglake's Jane Hamsher over at HuffPo.com, then lies about her affiliation with Ned Lamont's campaign.

Arianna Huffington, the founder of HuffingtonPost.com, said that no one from the site has asked for the photo to be removed. "We did not ask her, nor would we have asked her," she said. "It was a satirical point she made in the picture, and there was nothing in the text that was racist, and there is nothing about Jane that is racist."

In fact, campaigning in Bridgeport on Wednesday night, the Rev. Al Sharpton urged African-Americans to back Lamont:

"Tuesday night the voters of Connecticut have the first national opportunity to say to the world that we are not the cheerleaders of George Bush," Sharpton said.

On edit: maybe I shouldn't be laughing, but here's the pic:
