Joe Lieberman, from his indie perch

In a Salon interview, the super-hawk senator talks about his "liberation" from the Democratic Party, John McCain's campaign nosedive, and why Clinton, Obama and the other Dems are wrong on Iraq.

    Jolly Old Joe Lieberman

    (To the tune of "Jolly Old Saint Nicholas")

    Jolly old Joe Lieberman

    Moral as can be;

    He looks down on everyone,

    Reeks of sanctity

    Never met a Democrat

    That he didn't scorn;

    He sure loves our pResident,

    Hates free speech and porn.

    Jolly old Joe Lieberman

    Never went to war;

    Happy to send others there

    More and more and more.

    Had two kids with his first wife

    Then he changed his mind

    Dumped her 'cause she was Reform

    Missed that the first time.

    Jolly old Joe Lieberman

    Kissed George Bush, alas

    Now he spends his days and nights

    Kissing Bush's ass.
