"Ned said he would not sit back and let Lieberman attack him without a response. This shows he wasn't kidding," said Tom Swan, Lamont's campaign manager.
Lieberman is nuts and deserves to be unseated. I guess he comes off better live and in person, though. My ex used to be a reporter and often had to interview him. My ex swore up and down for years that Lieberman was the "last honest man in politics," and it took my knocking him over the head with Lieberman's dishonesty, disingenuousness, and other dis- things before he'd start to believe me (which is in part why he's my ex).

Like I said below, Lieberman is mimicking the Emperor he serves. Lying and posturing is all part of the modus operandi.

WGG: not stocks, too much chance of disappointment.
Music, I wouldn't trust my taste.
Maybe a CD at 5.5%.

Okay, I just donated to Murphy and Lamont and left a tip for Act Blue.

I can still ignore them, but they're not as cute when they're bigger (and I can actually read them!)
Off for a family adventure: the girls want to grab muffins and ride the bike to the local airport and watch parachuters ('hope there are some awake!)
(And the ads show up when you "preview," too!)

OT, but I posted on WaPo's article yesterday on the Iraq debate.
Compared to the NY Times article, WaPo came off looking good. Additionally, WaPo listed the Dems who voted for withdrawal in 2006 (all six of them).

Of course, there are plenty of non-millionaires running, namely vets, but Lamont has the money, and is standing up to the Dem machine. he's very careful about his references to the machine, but there's no doubt that they are doing everything they can to back Joe and maintain their hold on irrelevance. FW Lieberman (Fucking wanker is right) has the fight of his life on his hands, and he's losing it. I couldn't be happier.

Yup, Ol' Joe is revealing that he is indeed part and parcel of the Rove administration. On policy. And on gutter campaign tactics...
Isn't it wonderful to see the piece of shit desperate and crying with his mascara running down his face.

Given the quality of that Lieberman 'bear' attack, I think Ned will get a lot of mileage out of his new contribution. I'm picturing an ad with Ned looking at the camera, asking, 'What is he talking about? He says he's a sober, serious Senator and he gives us a bad cartoon about his 18-year-old grudge? Is that what you want, Connecticut?'
I'm also waiting for someone to point out that Weicker was willing to stand up to a President of his own party when he was violating the law, not kiss him.

I'm sure "ceasily ompete" was a typo, but I think it's up there with "cellar door" in terms of phonetic beauty.

That's what I like to see. Lamont's up to about 1:3 cash disadvantage, from about 1:10 a month ago. That's getting somewhat competitive.
Still, this one had to be tough, because it now means he can't say anymore that he's personally financing less than half the campaign.
Good to know that the bear cub ad is internet only. In all the laughing about it no one mentioned that it was completely irrelevant (website is where bad ads go to die).

Happy July 4th to all of you. I just made a flash game where uncle Sam is seen throwing knives at Joe Lieberman called Back Stabbing Lieberman. Check it out at my site here: http://zenwire.com/flashmedia-li...a-
lieberman.php. There are also other games there: bush rampage, bush-rice-terror, bush shootout, dancing bush and Blair and other political games as well. Feel free to comment for I plan to make more.
Anyways, back to the meaning of July 4th for my kids.
I was watching all the fireworks outside with my kids, and my 8 year old daughter asked me to explain what was Independence day all about. I gave her the story about colonial settlers under British rule and how we united with help to fight off the Brits and finally won our independence for the right to self rule. And when I told her that this is when our founding fathers wrote the Declaration of Independence, and she asked me what was that? I did not remember most of the words, but incredibly my wife did and we utter some of those magic words together. I told her that when I was a kid and read those words, I thought that they were the most beautifully written words I had ever read. And I told her that the meaning and values of that document was why I love America so much; this was the country that taught me what it meant to be equal and fair, good and just. But I also told her that half of it is no longer true, and my son, a typical Nintendo kid, interjected: “You mean, like Bush.” I did not even have to reply or convince him, somehow he already knew. In a way I should be glad that even my kids can see what is going on, but somehow I actually felt sad. Sad because they don’t know the full weight and tremendous implications of those words written so long ago. Sad because they don’t realize the power of words and the actions they can generate; and those specific words were so powerful that countless men have willingly died through the eons in their fleeting attempt to manifest and live out those words and its ideals. And sad because I grew up in a world full of idealistic ideas and enthusiasm, teaching us to not only help and improve ourselves, but all of humanity and mankind as well. Reaching the moon and back was just a small sampling of things to come. I am what I am is because of these words and it makes me sad to realize that my kids will not have these words and the absolute belief and trust in those very words (inscribed by our founding fathers) to guide and instill in them a sense of justice and equality. They know the world is not fair and they will never expect it to be fair. I have always hoped the world will be so, but I can no longer say this with a straight face to my kids that the world will be this way when they grow up or if it will ever even get any closer to those ideals; just like the moon is no longer feasible to travel to anymore, there is easy money to be made elsewhere subjugating the people of this planet.
