Reid and Lieberman, what and some DUers don't understand...
Advertisements [?]
You guys just applauded in a President Elect Obama who wants CHANGE and a bi-partisan atmosphere. Obama has reached out to his opponents and was gracious. Obama isn't going to practice the politics of division nor is he out to punish folks and I don't think he'll want the democratic party to do that either.

Reid has made the decision to oust Lieberman from his chairmanship. Just cuz Reid won't ram a 10ft pole up Lieberman's ass and run him out of the democratic caucus doesn't make him a bad leader. In fact it makes him the type of leader that Obama wants in the party.

Why is it that some people are having problems understanding that Reid did make a fucking decision? He told Joe he's gotta let it go and step down. Yet all I see are posts about how Reid must go and Reid sucks, Reid can't lead and , Reid can't make a decision. Those posts make no goddamned fucking sense.

Reid is ousting Trader-Joe by giving him an out while trying not to embarrass his ass. That is leadership. That is CHANGE. That's your new politics.


Seems to me that people here need to start living the example that Obama is setting forth, though I doubt it will happen.

Oh...and if you're wondering...no actions will be taken against Bushco under Obama either. So, go ahead and get that fact under your belt.
