Daschle, Gephardt and Lieberman are evil--antichrist evil. It just makes the Bush administration come across as honest and trustworthy. They just look better every minute.

For a clear rat picture of their rat plan. It is to drag out any and all BS that has to do with Enron and 911 from now up to the fall election. I mean anything. There is also 2 so called demorat smoking guns they plan to unleash in early November late October.
This includes getting TV (their buddies in the media) to cover a 24/7 smear of Bush and republicans all summer and fall. That is the plan. It as all laid out at the dnc and their many web sites on the net. You see a rat does not keep a secret and they brag about it all and they slip up. I love it watching rats fall. I think the media that helps the un american democrats with this plan should be held accountable and closed down for un american activity.

Lieberman will seek a subpoena if WH doesn't provide info...Very clever! Did he bother to tell the White House he'll seek a subpeona before running off to the press with this statement? From the article, the White House Counsel is busy still gathering the info. Lieberman wants, but Lieberman's statement, with the headline conveniently supplied by the Associated Press, makes it sound as if the WH is stonewalling and is doing something illegal.

We need to remove them from office forever. That is the only way we will ever see any kind of big government reform. Dog was so right yesterday, with his thread. The liberals are out to destroy our country. They can not remain a viable party. Did you know, it was the rats that carried bubonic plague? How appropriate.

Isn't Lieberman's biggest contributor Citicorp? They are Enron's biggest creditor too! Do you think that Lieberman is being pushed to get the Enron money back for Citicorp so he can get future campaign contributions?

Do you think that Lieberman is being pushed to get the Enron money back for Citicorp so he can get future campaign contributions? Gee, it sounds like a plan to me - for Lieberman, that is. He's almost as disgusting as Gore was. That was a matched pair!
Citicorp is one outfit I dislike. Very arrogant and abusive of "consumers" in my experience. If Lieberman likes them it's a good reason to be suspicious of their intentions.

Lieberman's the head (was a few months back at least) of the DLC, Democratic Leadership Council...the group that refuses to divulge their donors, though they bragged in a "Progressive" article that they and their Wall Street helpers sent Clinton from Arkansas to the White House, and their biggest donor was Bernard Schwartz of Loral.
They have five tiers of business donors, based on $$$$...Enron is one of their top donors (4th tier, I believe, no specifics mentioned), and Citigroup, Coca Cola, American Express, Goldman Sachs, etc. are big DLC donors.
They ask their members to divulge all...other organizational memberships, etc. (remember Hillary asking that of White House employees when she first arrived in DC?), and Hillary's a player, as is Sen. John Edwards...along with many of his big $$$$ Trial Lawyer buddies.
Sen. Lieberman could do the honorable (not hypocritical) thing here and tell the truth about Enron, DLC....especially in light of his and Edwards' pretenses of being faithful, honorable God-fearing men.
This is the group, NDOL.org=DLC, the "Progressive" article has been removed from the web. Still searching....

He's waiting for Hollywood to do a movie on his mispent life. Henry Gibson can play Lieberman.

Things have gotten pretty quiet over at the GAO lately. I guess somebody made a lateral pass to Lie-berman. So much posturing.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Hold On White House, it's just a few more months until we free you with our votes from the dastardly Daschle democrat senate majority.

Lieberman wrote,
"More than seven weeks have passed ... and the committee has received virtually no information from you." Hey, Senator Lieberman that's pretty decent time compared to how long the good junior Senator Mrs. Clinton took to find her Rose Law Firm billing records. What's the hurry?
