The Democrats threw Lieberman under a bus 2 years ago -- so why are liberals calling HIM a "traitor"? ?

Question

When Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut ran for re-election two years ago, his own Democrat Party did not support him.

They went with another candidate, because Lieberman dared to oppose the party line on ONE issue -- namely the Iraq war.

So Lieberman ran for re-election as an independent. And he won.

The Democrats threw Lieberman under the bus two years ago. But he won his Senate seat back anyway, without their help.

Now, some liberals on this site are calling him a "traitor" for speaking at the RNC.

It was the Democrat Party that took a dump on Lieberman -- not the other way around!

How in the world is HE the "traitor" here???

Answer 1

I was a Democrat for many years...the Democrats think they can insult you, **** on you, mess up your life and openly wish you were dead and you should remain loyal to them...I woke up after Hurricane Katrina when the Democrats were telling lies about what was happening in the aftermath and I was here and saw the truth for myself...they are insane...call me Independent...like old Joe Lieberman..lol...

Answer 2

It all comes back to simple math, my friend:

Liberal = Hypocrite

Do as I say, not as I do...

Answer 3

You're probably not understanding the true sense of the word they're meaning that in. It's something about him they just mention  because he's done something to  displease them. I'd have to guess demonrats would be far more likely to have "dual citizenship" in "israel" and  thus far better situated to understand the full implications of that.  Therefore they call  HIM a traitor

on the principle  it takes one to know one.

Answer 4

he is not a traitor, he is a man who shares what he thinks

Answer 5

Because that's what the Democrat machine does. They bully, lie, cheat and steal. Remember what Charles Shumer's associates did to Michael Steele two years ago? They stole his SSN and used it to access his credit report. These people are worse than scum. Their motto is, "Win at all costs" (including demonizing a 17 year old).

They call Lieberman a traitor because he doesn't blindly toe the party line. It makes no difference to them that he is no longer a "democrat". He "screwed up" and needs to be punished.

Answer 6

They dumped him and Pelosi has stripped him of the committies he was on, how can anyone possibly vote for any Democrat.

Answer 7

Simple

When Republicans votes against their own party they are independent ..they are mavericks

When Democrats bucks their own party they are traitors
