Has there been too much bipartisanship or too little?

The reward Joe Lieberman will receive today is justified by the claimed need for more bipartisanship harmony. Is it even possible to have more than we have now?

    ughhh.....

    clinton as secretary of state... christ... she's a warmonger....completely unimaginative....a throwback to the age of von clauswitz...a political dinosaur...AND morally repugnant:

    "In my heart I'm a liberal. In my head I am a conservative [neocon]."

    Gawd what a disgusting asshole. For me it's just the opposite: In my most vile disgusting base emotions (greed, control, prejudice, intolerance) i'm a 'conservative', while in my thinking brain (progress, possibility, imagination, creativity) I'm a progressive.

    Remember:

    - voted for preemptive attack on Iraq without knowing anything about Iraq

    - voted for the 'patriot act' without knowing anything about it

    - voted for preemptive attack on Iran without knowing anything about Iran

    - Threatened to 'Obliterate Iran' if it preemptively attacked Israel (but tellingly, did not threaten to 'obliterate Israel' if it preemptively attacked Iran, which is the far more likely scenerio).

    - Repeatedly proclaimed that McCain would make a better President than Obama.

    - Repeated attacked Obama for palling around with terrorists.

    If she's sec of state, the frickin' honeymoon is OVER!

    Already got my bumper stickers:

    IMPEACH OBAMA NOW!

    I'm with Greenwald - there is waaaay too much mindless obedience in this bullshit country.

    Oh - did you notice that the Obama transition team announced the Cardinal Sin for the Obama administration? Guess what it is? LEAKING! "If you leak, your're gone!" - That's the rule!

    Not, "If you lie to Americans, you're gone!"

    Not, "If you embezzle, you're gone!"

    Not, "If you are corrupt, you're gone!"

    No, there is only one sin and that is disloyalty to the President. Not disloyalty to the American people, but disloyalty to Dear Leader.

    Fuck it. Change my fucking ugly ass!

    We're finally on our own.
