Hope and Change Update: Left goes after Liebermans wife
The Far Left is going after Liebermans wife because of his stand against their nationalized health care plan.
The North Star National reported:
The Connecticut senator and former Democratic vice-presidential nominee first drew liberal ire for his vocal support of President George W. Bushs surge in Iraq. Now, Democrats are attacking him for pledging to stand with Republicans in filibustering the Senate health care bill if it contains a public option or a Medicare buy-in.
One influential liberal blogger, Jane Hamsher, is so enraged with Lieberman that she has asked the Susan B. Komen Foundation to fire Liebermans wife, Hadassah, from her role as international spokesperson for the breast cancer fighting charity. Hamsher has even implored celebrities associated with the organization to pressure the foundation to can Hadassah because of her husbands position on the Senate health care bill. Talk about personal.
The Washington Posts Ezra Klein went even farther by writing that Liebermans motivation in opposing the current Senate health care bill is nothing more than revenge against those liberals who opposed him in his 2006 Senate campaign. Worse, Klein charges, Lieberman seems to be willing to cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people in order to settle an old electoral score.
What slander.
