How about the fact that after Lieberman's snoozer, the host said, "there is another Republican..." who had just thrown his hat into the ring.

I caught that but she said that because there is already one Republican in the race, the racist, one issue xenophobe Paul Streitz of The Connecticut Citizens for Immigration Control.

that was hilarious!!!!!!!
guy kinda looks drunk, but when he spoke he was lucid and alert (enough for me anyway), so I suspect he may have done it as a joke...
either way, too funny!

I live abroad and I sent money to Lamont. I know others who did the same. I can't imagine anyone wanting to be represented by oatmeal Lieberman. Let Joe run as a Republican. Connecticut could shine with Lamont.

Actually, that looked a lot like narcolepsy to me. Narcolepsy isn't pleasant, or funny, to those who have to deal with it.
He goes into way too deep a sleep for there not to be a psychophysical connection - even if he'd pulled an all nighter, he would be unlikely to drift off on air unless he'd been sitting there for hours.
As far as him faking it - watch the head nod at the very beginning of the piece - he's obviously fighting it through out the part until he has to speak. The adrenaline of realizing he fell asleep on the air means that it's hard to tell his from his talking peice, though he seems calm enough that he may not completely realized that he'd nodded off.
Then again, IANAD, let alone a sleep specialist.

He's badly hungover. Take it from me. Been there, done that (though not on TV). Journalists are a hard-drinking bunch.

sorry but i see nothing but false advertising of the facts, not by you on this site but where i linked from.
the head sinking down and the snore were OBVIOUSLY meant as a sarcastic reaction to Lieberman on tape...
was obviously an attempt to sneer at joe and call him booooooorrringg..
which is true,
but that's besides the fact..

I'm sure he isn't the first person he's put to sleep. Damn that was funny, the sudden head jerk up as he realizes suddenly that he was dozing. And the newscaster giggling. Oh damn, instant classic. And yeah, you really wonder whether Joe tries for that soothing, I-Just-Had-An-Enema-I'm-Super-Relaxed sound or whether it's natural....well, as "natural" as anything such a calculating political "professional" could master. And if it is intentional, well, you wonder what adviser told him that. Damn, that columnist must have a full e-mail inbox right about now.....thanks.

Yup if he was hung over ... I'm sure he'll be happy to know he dozed off during the DINO Lieberman piece.

Well, since Lieberman spends a lot of time with Bush, this would explain a great many things.
Good catch, dude.

It looked like an obvious joke to me. Joementum is a boring speaker and everybody knows that. If you have insomnia, litel to Joementum and you'll be asleep in no time flat.

So I just called Joementum's D.C. office about comments he made about Adolf Hitler and Usama Bin Laden and attacking Iran! I told his intern that our leaders take an oath to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution not Israel. The intern went off on me asking if I would have the same opinion if the Senator was a Catholic! I said hell yes, and the intern said that I had a lot of accusing to do, and hung up! My anger is starting to spill over. I feel impotent/apathy! I'm not anti semitic, I'm not anti American!!!

Definitely a joke--a good slam, too! The guy is absolutely alert and the snore was as much theater as it was comment.

nobody will miss that old zionist Lieberman being kicked out of the US Senate, the only people that will miss Lieberman are the jews over in Israel, those are the only people Lieberman represents anymore
Lieberman sent 150,000 Americans off to essentially fight a jew boys war and Lieberman sent 2700 Americans to die for oil and to die for Israel's interests
and now this jew Lieberman is talking about nuking Iran, when Iran is not any threat to America, Lieberman wants Americans to go and fight another war for the jews in Israel
if Lieberman wants all of these wars so bad, why doesn't he drag his jew son out of Yale Law School and they can both go back to Israel and join the Israeli army and fight against Iraq and Iran
the whole country is getting sick of this rotten warmonger Lieberman, not just Connecticut
