You killed him, Jane!

Was this the pic you intended to show?

He also has an eerie resemblance to the father from Alf. What that says about his position that Friends should be broadcast after 11 PM, I don't know.

Link's working now.

I notice that the real Senator Palpitane never shows his teeth when he smiles. Possibly because he goes to the same dentist Darth Maul does.

So we really don't have to worry until Lieberman starts smiling without showing his teeth, and announces he is available to be drafted as Chancellor.

Davey, if you think Lieberman looks like the dad from Alf, you probably think James Lileks is Senator Palpatine, too. C'mon, it takes more than a (very) high forehead to make an Evil Emperor (and I say this as someone with a rather low forehead).

Personally, I'm going to start referring to Rumsfeld as 'Defense Secretary Voldemort'.

So we really don't have to worry until Lieberman starts smiling without showing his teeth, and announces he is available to be drafted as Chancellor.

I dunno, PJ. People at rallies say that Joe's got a real electric handshake.

He doesn't look like the Dad from Alf, but Lieberman does sound exactly like that actor.

The site has jane dotted!!

Naw. Everyone knows that Joe Lieberman is secretly Elmer Fudd wearing platform shoes. :-)

I have long argued that Senator Joe Lieberman should switch to the Republican Party. This is the only realistic way to possibly reform the Democrat Party. Can’t he do more by staying within his current political home? Nope, he can likely only do some good by blowing their minds. Nothing less will entice folks like Brad DeLong, James Fallows, and Kevin Drum to wake up and smell the coffee. The exchange last night between Howard Dean and Lieberman regarding Israel was most revealing. It is time for the senator from Connecticut to say loud and clear: the perhaps well meaning Bill Clinton’s foolish policies have gotten a lot of Jews murdered!

Today’s committed Democrats despise their own country. The Old Europeans are to be appeased and emulated. America is supposedly a second rate nation that must embrace the socialist utopian vision. Do I should a bit like like Ann Coulter? Alas, while I think her most recent book leaves much to be desired (especially concerning the McCarthy era)---I’m afraid that she is right to suggest that many Democrats are at a gut level traitors.

As a Democrat, I must say that David T has me pegged. I really hate America.

I don't know why. It's kind of odd, because I was born here and grew up here and was educated here. I've had a comfortable life and enjoyed myself. But am I grateful? Of course not.

I think it has to do with all my liberal teachers. That and my love for the underdog. When I was in elementary school I had 3 different Communist teachers. They instilled in me a love of the USSR and the People's Republic of China -- countries where everyone was equal and dictators ruled with iron fists. Those are my two favorite countries in the whole world. Actually, I guess the USSR is gone now. I've started to develop a fondness for North Korea recently though.

America, on other hand, has always bugged me. For one thing, they say that if you try hard enough, you can do anything in America. I don't like that -- I would much prefer to live in a country where you don't have try to accomplish anything. All you have to do is want it, or "need" it.

So I developed an interest in American politics. There are two big parties in America, the Republicans and the Democrats. The Republicans are fiscally conservative -- they think taxes should be lower and government should be lower. On the other hand, the Dems force the Republicans to increase government spending. One day, if the Republicans were to gain enough power, they could stop the Dems from making the federal government so damn big, with most of the money going to welfare queens and drug addicts.

I suddenly realized the danger that the Republicans posed to my Commie aspirations. I saw the only way for me to change America was to become a Democrat. The Dems could make everyone equal, simply by taking money from the rich people and giving it to the poor people. I liked this idea -- I was always scared that I would lose in a competition. Better to never have to compete, ever.

Anyway, George W Bush has been formidable so far in stopping me from getting my traitorous way, but I am confident that in the future things will change. Bush will get thrown out of office. This will invite terrorists to attack America, because they will think we're weak. Meanwhile the redistribution of wealth will continue. I can't wait until a Democrat is President again.

The following article in today's Wall Street Journal should be read by all. The author is Lawrence Kaplan---a senior editor of the liberal The New Republic:

“If you really wish to know what someone thinks about the war on terror, however, that person's opinions about Monica Lewinsky and the Florida recount offer a more reliable guide. Were the cause something other than self-preservation, these cleavages might not mean so much. But when a global war becomes the exclusive property of one political party--and is treated, increasingly, as a touch-me-not by the other party--the whole enterprise risks forfeiting its legitimacy. “

“That most of us have resumed living by September 10 rules would hardly matter but for the inconvenient fact that America's foes still play by September 11 rules.”
