Sticks And Stones

Teresa’s boy-toy has decided that Joe Lieberman needs a good case of name-calling. Mr. Gigolo is coming out swinging at Joe, calling him (gasp) a “Republican Sympathizer”. Egads! Them there’s fightin’ words. Kerry better watch it or Joltin’ Joe might decide to pop him one up side of his finely coiffeured pointy little head.

The Donks are really piling on poor Ol’ Joe after their preferred candidate, Ned Lamont, defeated Joe in the primary. Chris Dodd, the other Senator from Connecticut, hasn’t even spoken to Joe since the primary and in the Senate the Donks are considering strippng Joe of his commmittee chairs. Now they’re sic’ed Butthead Kerry on Joe ... all because Joe won’t toe the party line on the war. Unbelievable.

For the record, according to latest news reports, as soon as Lamont won the primary the Hildabeast donated $5,000 from her HILLPAC campaign funds to Lamont’s campaign. Her husband, Slick Willie, who endorsed Joe, has gone silent and is sulking back at the mansion. Perhaps Slick Willie understands that Lieberman was the closest thing to a Moderate that the Democrats had.

Now they’ve driven the party off to the Far Left and there may be a hard crash ahead because the Donks haven’t figured out yet that the majority of people in this country are Moderate or Conservative. Their “base” has shrunk to the point where only the Liberal Moonbats are left to support them. John “F’ing” Kerry’s attacks on Joe should be worn as a badge of honor by Joe. If Kerry hates it, it must be good.

What the media, the Donks and Kerry may have failed to notice is that approximately 300,000 registered voters cast their vote in the Democratic primary and Lamont won by only 10,000 votes. 300,000 voters is about 7.5% of the total population of registered voters in Connecticut. I predict Joe will win in a landslide in November ... and the Donks will lose a good friend and a voice of sanity in the party. I also predict that Democrats will blame it all on an “uneducated, ignorant population” of voters in Connecticut. That won’t go down well with folks in the Constitution State, birthplace of George W. Bush ...

Kerry Calls Lieberman the New Cheney
_{(ABC NEWS) - Aug. 20, 2006}

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., blasted a fellow Democrat, Sen. Joe Lieberman, for continuing his bid in the Connecticut Senate race despite a narrow loss to newcomer Ned Lamont in the Democratic primary earlier this month. I’m concerned that [Lieberman] is making a Republican case,” Kerry told ABC News’ “This Week with George Stephanopoulos” in an exclusive appearance.

Kerry accused the 2000 Democratic vice presidential candidate of “adopting the rhetoric of Dick Cheney,” on the issue of Iraq. “Joe Lieberman is out of step with the people of Connecticut,” Kerry added, insisting Lieberman’s stance on Iraq, “shows you just why he got in trouble with the Democrats there.”

Kerry called Lieberman’s independent bid a “huge mistake” and applauded businessman-turned-politician Lamont as “courageous” for challenging Lieberman on the war. Of his own views on Iraq, Kerry stated forthrightly, “The course of this country in Iraq is making the world more dangerous.”

Kerry, the Democrat’s nominee for president in 2004, supported the 2003 Senate resolution that ultimately led to the invasion of Iraq, and was criticized throughout his White House bid for then opposing a measure funding continuing operations in that effort. The Bush campaign seized on what they described as Kerry’s wavering views on Iraq, which in part led to the senator’s 2004 election defeat.

Since 2004, Kerry has steadily sharpened his opposition to the Iraq war, calling for a steady withdrawal of U.S. troops beginning last year. Kerry told chief Washington correspondent George Stephanopoulos, “Iraq is not the center of the war on terror,” while also asserting, “Iraq is in a civil war; of course it’s in a civil war.”

Kerry said he supports the efforts of Senator John Warner, R-Va., to introduce a second resolution on Iraq if and when the country descends into outright civil war. Kerry believes that moment has come and reiterated, “We have to set a date for the withdrawal,” before concluding, “The absence of diplomacy is putting our troops at greater risk and is reducing our ability for success.”

On the uncertain ceasefire involving Israel, Lebanon and Hezbollah, Kerry said the near-month-long violence “set back” Hezbollah, but did so “at a greater cost to Israel.”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
