Somehow in a world where the cliche “Never talk politics or religion at the dinner table” flows, and in a world where Dick Cheney tells Senator Patrick Leahy to “go fuck yourself”, the tone of the New Republic to those oh so nasty deraugotary commentsd made by “liberal bloggers” at Joseph Lieberman strikes me as incredibly off-putting and partronizing.

Let the record show that Ned Lamont does not consider Joe Lieberman a whiny-ass titty baby. Nor does he believe that Connecticut’s junior senator is a douchebag, an ass clown, or any of the other nasty names liberal bloggers have called Lieberman–whom, with those bloggers’ help, Lamont hopes to defeat in this August’s Democratic primary. “I really regret that rhetoric,” Lamont said one recent afternoon, blushing a little as some of the derogatory appellations for Lieberman were read back to him.

Indeed, by taking on Lieberman, Lamont has become a hero to those who reside in the angriest corners of the state and national Democratic Party–and whose brief against Lieberman goes well beyond his support for the war. (To wit, one ardent Lamont supporter who blogs at Daily Kos recently trash-talked: “Lieberman is a disloyal, Bush-kissing, torture-loving asshole who hasn’t done shit for CT in years.”) These Lieberman-haters hail Lamont for his “Nedrenaline” and celebrate his “Nedmentum.” He is, in their eyes, “the anti-Lieberman.” “Ned has a gift,” a blogger at the website My Left Nutmeg recently wrote. “The more people see and hear Ned the more they like him and that’s the polar opposite of our current junior senator.” But, as Lamont seems to be discovering, being a hero to this rabid crowd is a strange role for a mild-mannered guy like himself.

To review:

Joe Lieberman a whiny-ass titty baby.
Joseph Lieberman is a douchebag.
Joseph Lierbman is an ass clown.
Lieberman is a disloyal, Bush-kissing, torture-loving asshole who hasn’t done shit for CT in years.

I can’t use any of these insults. They’ve been taken. I have to find one for myownself.

Okay.

Joseph Lieberman is a Poopy-Head.

I will now trademark and copyright that phrase. It’s mine. I have called people “poopy-head” in the past, and have just called Joseph Lieberman one. If you wish to hurl an insult at Joseph Lieberman, you must find one that is different than “Joseph Lieberman is a Poopy – Head”.
