Major Lieberman Home State Paper Asks Where Joe is on the Bush Leak Debacle

The Hartford Courant asks why Joe Lieberman is being so mum on the whole issue of the revelation that Bush-Cheney authorized the leak of information that led to the outing of Joe Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame, as a CIA operative. The paper also notes that Lieberman, who has handily won re-election several times, is taking hits for his "perceived coziness" with the Bushies and has "appeared rattled" in recent weeks by his current challenger's strong showing.

I'd like to see Joe's political career end. He worries far too much about what is good for him and too little about what is good for those he represents. This, however, is true of many if not most elected officials, but as I've said before, I think we need a total change in Washington that would involve losing just about everyone currently serving there.
