Biden on Lieberman's Health Care Stance: 'I Think Joe's Judgment is Wrong On This'

[MVX12]

Lieberman killed the most important part of the progressive agenda, and Obama's promise for health care reform and he gets a pass, and Biden calls him a "good guy", instead of calling him for what he is: the prostitute of the Senate who sells his vote for the highest amount of money any lobbyist gives him; in this case its the insurance companies.

at the same time the real base of democrats who back the public option are given a death warning by Biden.

the democratic leadership is a failure.

who am I JOE INSURANCE

[njcarlos1]

I'm starting to hate my country... really. And when you start hating one of the greatest nations in the world, what's left? I think they're getting to me... I'll be apathetic in no time. One World Government... please?

[JBBlitz]

the goverement forced lower cost will make a shortage of drugs doctors and insurance for all americans, since goverment plan will cover no more than 10,000 a year. doctors

NO HEALTHCARE REFORM PLZ

[Codger45caliber]

killing the Obamacare bill.

Does this mean the Louisiana senator won't get her 100 million dollars?

Only 291 days left until the 2010 election.

[thecruiseliner]

Time to shine the light on Leiberman.

His lobbyists.....who are they, how much money he gets.

SHINE THE LIGHT ON Leiberman.

[DillonX]

Lieberman is just a WHORE for the insurance companies and because of him they'll be no reduction in cost.

And Barack is an ass for giving into him -- should have just let him kill a good bill.

[thecruiseliner]

Leiberman's time has come.

Lets find out and publish, all the moeny he receives from loobyist, health insurance co., Israel lobby, etc.

TIME TO SHINE THE LIGHT ON LIEBERMAN.

Do you really want to have a traitor snitch, in your team? not here.

SHINE THE LIGHT.

Lieberman says Merry Christmas to all Americans! Trouble is he doesn't believe in Christmas, only profits from it.

He voted billions for Israel but spits on Americans.

Joe says to the 44,000 americans who will die this year because they are poor: FUCK YOU AND DIE!

[racevws]

Wow, lawyers trying to fix medicare. How did it get this bad?

[mintvagoo]

Mika is worthless bobble-head. She nods her head- makes quirky faces like a 5 year old with the occasional- yeah, hmm, yep and ohh Joe. . It's unfortunate her boob job didn't increase her confidence as well. Mika is to journalism- as Kleenex are to body armor.

[CommonSenseJoe]

God love Joe Lieberman! He has told these Democrats to take a hike. They treated him like trash and it comes back to bite them. I love it!

[MojoJuana]

FUCK YOU!

NO MANDATE WITHOUT A STRONG PUBLIC OPTION!

NO WAY YOU ARE GOING TO POINT A GUN TO MY HEAD AND HAVE ME GIVE MY HARD EARNED MONEY TO THE PRIVATE CORPORATIONS WHO GREASE YOUR CAMPAIGNS!!!

obama, tell the american people the part under this piece of shit bill where private insurance can cut you loose if your treatment becomes too expensive!

[CarryANationIII]

The Republicans were destroyed, the Democrats had both houses of Congress and a new, popular President who even won the Peace Prize.

And the Democrats threw it all away because Obama is a shoe-shine boy working for Jamie Dimon of JP Morgan Chase and was told to spend all the money bailing out Wall Street Bankers.

The Democrats can't even pass "health care reform" and the GOP will probably win Congress next year.

Democrats = LOLZ

Biden is the Banker's Bitch.

[MojoJuana]

lieberman was picked to play the fall guy...the white house and congress just playing theatrics in another scam to pick our pockets!

mandating americans to buy shit from a private monopony is one of the things a dictatorship do.

[SabuPtolemy]

Whoever voted for that snake, Joe LIEberman, when he decided not to accept the Dem. party's decision to dump his slimy, worthless ass feels like shit now.

This guy is the lowest of the low in politics. And that includes Republicans.

[cocobear33]

joe keep up the good work

[testing88534]

I just sent a message to Joe Lieberman and I suggest everyone does the same! He's a corporate whore and we the people need to send this bastard a message of what we want! He must decide between money or the people!

[CarryANationIII]

Yes, send a "message" to Joe Lieberman! That will show him! The next time he does something like this, we'll all WRITE A LETTER!

Oh, Joe Lieberman is so bad compared to all those other Democrats taking Bankster money, like, say, Joe Biden.

The Democratic party is a farce.

[1911arthur]

Lieberman votes every year to give Israel OUR billions so THEIR citizens can have the finest government health care in the world and then SPITS on Americans, letting 44,000 of them die for lack of coverage. He hates Americans but sure loves those Israeli's and insurance companies!

He needs to be impeached.

[lcr566]

Joe Lieberman has had no positive impact as a U.S. Senator for years - He is a pawn of the corporate "give me your money and get out of my face" machine. Check who donates to his campaign! Thanks for yet another dead weight senatorial obstacle Connecticut.

[rl0u8888]

Oh shit....Biden knows about Liberman's dirty deals with insurance companies xD He should have just said it...but he's just being a good diplomat.

[Philinspaces]

I need health care because Lieberman makes me sick!

[inmyforties]

hate him or like him, lieberman seems more powerful than the president and his biden combined. he got his afghanistan surge and now this weak sauce health care joke

[Fortinbras85]

It should also be noted that Lieberman is a senator from Connecticut...the insurance capital of the country (health insurance included).

He's just trying to do what is best for the Connecticut economy (since so much of their economy and job creation is based on financial services). I'm sure Aetna, Cigna, Wellpoint, Mercer and all the other insurance outfits have also heavily lobbied him.

[300ZXturboXX]

Did he just say " Dont ever question a mans motive? And what was the reason again.

Everything we do is based on our motive .. it defines if its right or wrong, logical or ethical.

Fuck is this dude talking about?

[facelesshorseman]

Whoa! Who let Biden out of his box!?

Have they been keeping him in Cheney's undisclosed location?

Too little.

Too late.

Harry Reid and Joe Lieberman ought to be chained together on some deserted isle where they can drone each other to death.

[3star2nr]

Mr Biden is right. Mr. Obama should be saying this stuff.

This is how you twist arms not CAVE into everything.

Joe Lieberman is the freaking al qaeda of health care reform. And our solution is to give him full control

[gmcbuses]

@3star2nr Joe Lieberman is being very boneheaded on this. Number 1 cancer you have a better survival rate if it is detected early. No health insurance it will not happen. Joe opposes affordable health insurance for people who are poor. If you are poor, message from Joe, drop dead. He opposes public option, and buy in to medicare. Joe Lieberman is acting evil.

[MaladaptiveCatalyst]

Vice President Joe Biden should just say what he really wants to say...it's okay to be honest!!!

[gallomex13]

He is wrong in everything!

[WadeBlazingame34]

Lieberman = Raging Scumbag.

[KLNDR]

Go Joe. The good one, not the asshole.
