Joe Lieberman on board of Vets for Freedom (2008 Swift Boaters)
Can we just kick this guy out now? And, if McCain follows his own policy, he will have to boot Lieberman & Lindsay Graham...

video of ad at the link:

>>>
Updated: Lieberman & Graham Serve on Policy Board of Advisors for an Anti-Obama 527 Hotlist
by Steven R


This runs directly contradictory to Senator John McCain's policy to remove any persons from his campaign who work openly with or for any 527 Organizations.

Vets for Freedom Policy Board of Advisors
Senator Joe Lieberman (ID-CT), Honorary
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Honorary

This is a Smear Group using an Injured Vet openly in a slime commercial accusing Barack Obama directly of not meeting with veterans while wanting to meet with people who "Hate" America.

<snip>

And the Relevant Policy

No person with a McCain Campaign title or position may participate in a 527 or other independent entity that makes public communications that support or oppose any presidential candidate.

1. Rules? Policies? Laws?
So they get violated. IOKIYAR.

2. CT voters did kick him out

They voted for Ned. It's up to McCain to kick him out, which he won't do. Scum bags.

3. There can be no communication between a campaign and a 527
I wonder how Joementum and Graham are enjoying the cookout this weekend?

5. I'm sure they didn't speak with McCain at all
over the weekend. Just like Lieberman never whispered into McCain's ear when he mistakenly said (again) that Al Qaeda was getting trained in Iran.

4. How does that man wash the slime off at night?
Or does he just crawl back into the swamp for a nap?

6. He probably doesn't even notice
He's used to wallowing in the stench of corruption.

7. You're probably right
I wonder how long he's been a scum-sucking toadie (no offense to our amphibious friends out there) and how he keeps getting re-elected.
