House Votes Showing; H.R. 3962/Obamacare is Dead Issue; Won't Pass Senate without Joe Lieberman & Blue Dog Democrats; Lieberman Says: Army Ignored Islamic Terror Warning Signs over Fort Hood KillingsBy Marc Chamot
There’s one U.S. senator I really admire very much. He’s neither Democrat nor Republican; he’s a former Democrat who was backstabbed by his party, and then became an Independent, named Joseph Lieberman.
Ever since then, Old Joe had pretty much gotten his head screwed on right. I would say that Mr. Lieberman is one of my favorite senators in the U.S. senate. Even though I don’t agree and support some of his issues, but lately he’s been there for our country.
A once very liberal Democratic senator from Connecticut, and learned pretty much how politics is played in the U.S. senate, he’s more for the people rather than partisan oriented politics and he has won the admiration of many folks around, including this blogger.
While being a happy Democrat, along came his re-election to the U.S. senate seat that was coming up, but liberal Democrats were unhappy by Joe Lieberman’s constant pro-Israeli and anti-terror/pro-war stances that they decided to get rid of him. So they packaged another Democrat to run against him, who ended up winning the primary.
Wikipedia: “Lieberman sought the Democratic Party's re-nomination for U.S. Senate from Connecticut in 2006 but lost to Ned Lamont, a Greenwich businessman and antiwar candidate.
Lieberman was officially endorsed by the Connecticut Democratic Convention, which met in May. However, Lamont received 33 percent of the delegates' votes, forcing an August primary.
In July, Lieberman announced that he would file papers to appear on the November ballot should he lose the primary, stating, "I'm a loyal Democrat, but I have loyalties that are greater than those to my party, and that's my loyalty to my state and my country."[119] He stated that he would continue to sit as a Democrat in the Senate even if he was defeated in the primary and elected on an unaffiliated line, and expressed concern for a potentially low turnout.[120] On July 10, the Lieberman campaign officially filed paperwork allowing him to collect signatures for the newly formed Connecticut for Lieberman party ballot line.[121]
On August 8, 2006, Lieberman conceded the Democratic primary election to Ned Lamont, saying, "For the sake of our state, our country and my party, I cannot and will not let that result stand," and announced he would run in the 2006 November election as an independent candidate on the Connecticut for Lieberman ticket, against both Lamont and the Republican candidate, Alan Schlesinger.[122]”
Joe Lieberman doesn’t owe the Democratic Party anything, he’s his own man, and he supports issues that he sees fit. He owes no allegiances to President Obama and the Democrats, one of the reasons he did not support then candidate Obama for the U.S. presidency, was his fear for what would happen to Israel with an Obama presidency.
Mr. Lieberman prevailed over these Democrat’s back-stabbings, and pretty much is changing the course of what the U.S. senate is today. Mr. Lieberman epitomizes what a politician should be.
There is nobody more bi-partisan than Mr. Joseph Lieberman. Everybody raves about very partisan, former Senator Teddy Kennedy and what he did for Democrat liberals, but in my opinion, Kennedy couldn’t hold a candle, or a toilet seat to Mr. Joseph Lieberman.
While most Democrats don’t want to appear on Fox News, to Joe it’s no brainer, it’s the place to be at this moment.
Joe Lieberman has now taken the leadership roles on two crucial issues that are facing the United Sates at this moment. The last weeks’ Islamic terrorist shootings, by a U.S. military Moslem officer, Nidal Malik Hasan at Fort Hood, Have Radical Muslim Extremists Infiltrated Our Military? It Was an Act of Terrorism; Fort Hood Killer, Palestinian/American-Major Nidal Malik Hasan was a Muslim Terrorist: and the ill advised healthcare reform bill that the U.S. congress just paced. A Nancy Pelosi & Obamacare Reform Nightmares! H.R. 3962, Hello Socialism and Goodbye Free Markets; Provides Automatic FREE Healthcare for Newborns of Illegal Immigrants & Exempting Undocumented Immigrants from Massive Fines:
Sen. Joe Lieberman called the Fort Hood massacre an act of "Islamist extremism," he is the first and only Washington politician to admit and call it as he sees it. He calling for a senate probe into the shootings, he wants to go even further, he wants to know why the army ignored all of the warnings that were behind the killer’s love for extremist’s Islamic views, and his hatred for America and the U.S. military. Hasan has been known to say, “Islamic laws come first before the U.S. constitution.” Hasan’s classmates had complained to the top brasses about it, they didn’t do anything until it led to the murders of our 13 servicemen at Fort Hood.
At this moment there are even more disturbing news about Hasan, he’s also being linked to radical mosques, and Imams who took part in the 2001 terrorists attack on the World Trade Centers, and Mr. Lieberman was right when he said, “If Hasan was showing signs, saying to people that he had become an Islamic extremist, the U.S. Army should have ZERO TOLERANCE.” There’s going to be a whole lot of army and intelligence questionings being asked behind this tragedy, it may be the end for people to fear about being called RACISTS when they suspect something from some of these Islamic slimes.
And now after the Nancy Pelosi healthcare bill which went through the house, Joe Lieberman adamantly said he will not support it, and he will not support any costly “public options.” So if these Democrats, yes, the ones that backstabbed Joe Lieberman three years ago, think that they are going to get to use him every time they want, they got something else coming, because Joe Lieberman is his own man, he’s not a sold out hack for Democrats nor for the Republican parties.
Did the more conservative and moderate Blue Dogs Democrats finally get the message from the PEOPLE? Here are Democrats who did NOT VOTE for the H.R. 3962.
This is the one lone Republican who voted for Nancy Pelosi’s Obamacare bill; Joseph Cao, a freshman Representative from Louisiana's District 2. Mr. Cao voted in favor of the bill.
Here are the 39 H.R.3962 Democratic heroes!
Some of these are the 24 proud fiscal conservatives “Blue Dog” Democrats in the house, defied Nancy Pelosi’s Obamacare agendas and voted against H.R. 3962. It looks like the Blue Dog Democrats did get the people’s message! 2010!
The Democrats were more widely divided with 219 voting for the bill and 39 voting against it. The 39 who voted against it are as follows: John Adler (New Jersey Dist 3) Jason Altmire (Pennsylvania Dist 4) Brian Baird (Washington Dist 3) John Barrow (Georgia Dist 12) John Boccieri (Ohio Dist 16) Dan Boren (Oklahoma dist 2) Rick Boucher (Virginia Dist 9) Allen Boyd (Florida Dist 2) Bobby Bright (Alabama Dist 2) Ben Chandler (Kentucky Dist 6) Travis Childers (Mississippi Dist 1) Lincoln Davis (Tennessee Dist 4) ) Artur Davis (Alabama Dist 7) Chet Edwards (Texas Dist 17)) Bart Gordon (Tennessee Dist 6) Parker Griffith (Alabama Dist 5) Stephanie Sandlin (South Dakota) Tim Holden (Pennsylvania Dist 17) Larry Kissell (N. Carolina Dist 8) Suzanne Kosmas (Florida Dist 24) Betsy Markey (Colorado Dist 4) Jim Marshall (Georgia Dist 4) Frank Kratovil (Maryland Dist 1) Dennis Kucinich (Ohio Dist 10) Eric Massa (New York Dist 29) Jim Matheson (Utah Dist 2) Mike McIntyre (N. Carolina Dist 7) Michael McMahon (New York Dist 13) Charles Melancon (Louisiana Dist 3) Walt Minnick (Idaho Dist 1) Scott Murphy (New York Dist 20) Glenn Nye (Virginia Dist 2) Collin Peterson (Minnesota Dist 7) Mike Ross (Arkansas Dist 4) Heath Shuler (N. Carolina Dist 11) Ike Skelton (Missouri Dist 4) John Tanner (Tennessee Dist 8) Gene Taylor (Mississippi Dist 4) Harry Teague (New Mexico Dist 2)
And after the house, now we know that the Senate Blue Dog Democrats won’t vote for it either, along with Senator Joe Lieberman an Independent, Obamacare is a DOA issue now. As I said before, folks, if President Obama cannot get the House and Senate Blue Dog votes for his far left-wing issues, his policies and agendas will not get through, and thank goodness for that! Let’s be prepared for the next rounds of Obama defeats, global warming policies, Cap and Trade, and then early next year, Amnesty.
