For those of us who are actually Conservative, the Lieberman loss is simply inconsequential; his Party nominated a slightly-more-liberal Silver Spoon baby.
For those of you who wail and gnash your teeth about the Lieberman Loss, a reminder:
[Joe is] a proud liberal Democrat who supports partial-birth abortion, embryonic stem-cell research, gay rights, affirmative action, reparations for slavery, gun control, higher taxes on the top 2 percent, distribution of condoms in public schools and driver's licenses for illegal aliens.
What does Joe oppose? School prayer, the American Legion's flag amendment, Sam Alito, drilling in the ANWAR and any phase-out of death taxes.
Last year, Joe's rating by Americans for Democratic Action was 80. The ACLU gave him an 83, the NAACP an 85, the AFL-CIO a 92, LULAC a perfect 100. In 2004, Joe got a 100 rating from the National Abortion Rights Action League and a zero from National Right to Life. His American Conservative Union rating was zero. His Christian Coalition rating was zero. The National Rifle Association, which grades by letters, gave Joe a big, fat "F."
Some local "Conservatives" think that losing Joe will be the end of the world.
Frankly, RETAINING Joe will be the end of the world--for unborn babies, and most of the orderly society we call America.
Bye, Joe. Good riddance.
