Libtards Take Aim At The Liebermans
By Wyatt Earp | December 15, 2009
Joe Lieberman’s wife Hadassah is under attack from a group of idiot liberals. They want her removed as a spokeswoman for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation because they disagree with her husband’s voting record.
And here I thought the priority was fighting cancer, not the pursuit of a political agenda.
Washington – Sen. Joe Lieberman – whose opposition to a public insurance option has drawn outrage from liberal groups for months – is used to finding himself in progressive crosshairs. Now it’s his wife’s turn.
Activists are setting their sights on Hadassah Lieberman, launching a celebrity-studded petition drive to convince the nation’s largest breast cancer non-profit to end the Connecticut senator’s wife role as a spokeswoman.
The move to pressure the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation came the same day Lieberman’s husband angered Democrats by announcing that he would not support an expansion of Medicare to cover individuals under the age of 55. (H/T – CNN)
And Lieberman was right in withholding his support. Unlike many of these liberal activists, Lieberman is worried about this administration’s out-of-control spending. Where is the money for the expansion going to come from?
Mind you, the Komen Foundation has already been involved in a controversy involving banned Jewish doctors this year. Now some of American liberals want to banish Hadassah Lieberman? In my opinion, the Komen Foundation should forever stay apolitical, as both liberals and conservatives have been diagnosed with this terrible disease.

This is the libtard MO. When they can’t argue the facts, they resort to name calling, boycotts and general nastiness. And if the Komen foundation falls for this crap, they’ll lose my support.
As much as Lieberman is talking about fiscal responsibility, he sounds more like a republican than a lot of the republicans.
The whole thing is like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

The foundation said Hadassah stays. They finally got one right! Next on their hit list will be Evan Bayh’s wife since he voted against the spending bill. Some Dems are beginning to see the light when it comes to spending like there’s no tomorrow.

Lieberman was not concerned enough about out-of-control spending to vote against the $1 trillion plus omnibus spending bill last week, which includes 5,000-plus pork projects and other earmarks. he even bragged about walking three miles on the Jewish holiday to cast (or is that cash) his vote. Remember when the Democrats claimed they were going to end the eeeevilll Republican practice of earmarks? So much for that. Not that the Republicans have any moral high ground here; they spent like drunken sailors for the past eight years, but for Lieberman to cast himself as the guardian of the public treasury makes me want to puke. The whole bunch in Congress need to be voted out, post-haste.

One of the lines going around is:
What’s the difference between liberals and the Mafia?
The Mafia won’t go after your family!

True dat, proof.
Liberals, on the other hand, have the mindset of terrorists: they always go after the soft targets.

These “activists” should be beaten; seriously.

WalterC – I’m with you. If they bow to pressure, I’m done with them.
MeToo – Good news! Glad common sense ruled the day.
Rick – At the expense of the sick. Despicable.
Jim – I have said here a few times before that I want every member of Congress and the Senate voted out.
Proof – Good point.
Wes S. – And their reasoning is so nonsensical it boggles the mind. The activists will make a cancer foundation suffer because the activists care about health care? Hello???
Randal – I’m in!
