Netroots livid with Lieberman holding on to his key committee chairmanship

You fucking better believe it. The netroots are also majorly fucking pissed off with the impotent Senate fuckwits for allowing him to keep it and for not dyeing the banks of the Potomac red with his waste of blood. Glenn Greenwald:

Senate Democrats believe it's important to reward someone with a powerful Chairmanship who has been a vehement supporter of George Bush, the war in Iraq, the full panoply of anti-constitutional abuses, and an amplifier of the most toxic right-wing toxic points. At the same time, they consider it a good thing to scorn their supporters on what they consider to be "the Left." For anyone willing to hear it, they've made as clear and resounding a statement -- again -- about who they are and who they do and don't listen to.

A neocon and longtime Bush rump-swab, once shortlisted as the rethug VP candidate, is awarded a powerful chairmanship instead of a deserving Democrat. Disgusting.

What next, reaching across the aisle to give Lindsey Graham a hand job? Don’t [you] have any principles?

-- That would be no, commentmitter.
