Reid is a spineless rollover and wont do anything about it but if you want to...call his office.

1. Because we want to co-chair all the committees

instead of having the majority.

:crazy:

2. our majority

is lieberfuckinputz thin. we need him til we get more Ds in the senate.

3. Reid CANNOT do this.

Under the organizing resolution for the 110th Congress, Joe Lieberman is the head of the Homeland Security Committee. He cannot be removed from this office.

Neither can Lieberman tilt the Senate back into Republican hands. The OR for 2001 was different and allowed such a move. This one does not.

The only remedy for Joe Lieberman is a larger Senate Democratic majority in 2009. Then he can be told to go hang with the rest of the Republicans in the 111th Congress.

4. Reid cannot unilaterly strip Lieberman of his Chair

This was discussed tonight on Kos on another thread.

5. Reid is far too busy hanging onto the towel-bar...

taking it up the chute from the BFEE.

Always has...

Always will...

8. What? If you're trying to be helpful, I don't see it. nt

9. Let's see if we can parse my post and understand it.

I posted here, saying that Reid couldn't strip Lieberman of his posts even if he wanted to.

Then you pointed out that Dodd was filibustering the retroactive immunity and Reid shouldn't deal with Lieberman because of it.

Then I posted "And then there's this," meaning your point.

And then next to my avatar of Chris Dodd, I posted the word, "Priorities!"

Priorities was your point. I was affirming this. I think that's pretty self-evident.

See it now?
