WHO PUSHED HIM??
I always thought he was a good guy, even when I disagreed with his position. God Bless!
I’ll bet Jo Jo’s Pedo heart just skipped a beat and his palms are sweaty. Don’t buy any green bananas Jo Jo.
RIP
RIP. You were one of the few honorable Democrats
He was a Dem and a Leftist, but still, not completely insane like we see today. I’m willing to bet there are more Repubs mourning him than Democommies.
One half of “Sore Loserman”. Still the best meme before memes were a thing.
Worthless
I’ll bet that song, “Don’t Pay the Ferryman” will be going through Xiden’s skull all night long.
me too
Took long enough - he was FAR TOO PRO-ISRAEL for the Nazi Party (aka, Democrats), so yeah, he had to go.
When the chips were down he always voted with the Dems just like Manchin.
Lieberman was a McCain supporter in 2008 and that put Lieberman in the room with Sarah Palin.
Palin offered her take on Lieberman’s passing tonight...

RIP was one of last of the good politicians in either party...
I got a chance to shake his hand, and I shook his hand as “I’m a republican and will fight everything you stand for, but thank you for supporting Israel”
But he and his family are still snakes. His brother especially. That guy needs to fall off a roof.
McStain wanted to pick Lieberman as his running mate.
RIP.
Joe Lieberman was a good man. He impressed me as an honorable man who was in pain, seeing the way his party did their crooked business.
A lefty but not bereft of principles.
RIP Joe, you deserve your rest.
My question is this....How in hell could he stomach running on the same ticket as Al Gore???
