Ever since he received President Bush’s official smooch of approval, Sen. Joe Lieberman has moved much more aggressively to the right, putting some of the more hawkish types from his new crowd to shame with his saber-rattling rhetoric about Iran. Here, the Brave New Films team charts Lieberman’s nearly complete transformation in recent years.

Joe Must Go!
Demand the Steering Committee remove Joe Lieberman's position within the Democratic Caucus.
We CANNOT tolerate a leader of the Senate Democratic Caucus who supports George Bush and McCain's War in Iraq. We CANNOT tolerate a Democratic chairman of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee who endorses and stumps for McCain. We call on the Senate Democratic Steering Committee to strip Joe Lieberman of his chairmanship and his leadership role.

Democrats May Kick Out Joe Lieberman If He Addresses The Republican National Convention
July 12, 2008
Robert Novak reports that Democrats consider Joe Lieberman's planned address at the GOP Convention in September the "last straw" from their colleague from Connecticut:
Despite assurances to the contrary from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Democratic insiders are certain Sen. Joseph Lieberman next year will be kicked out of the party's caucus and lose his Senate chairmanship if he addresses the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., as planned.
Lieberman's Democratic colleagues willing to accept his support of Sen. John McCain for president consider speaking to the GOP convention as the last straw. Lieberman was re-elected from Connecticut as an independent in 2006 after losing the Democratic nomination because of his support for the Iraq war.
Earlier, The Hill reported that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was mum as to what role Lieberman would play in the Senate next year:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Thursday did not rule out removing Sen. Joe Lieberman from his coveted chairmanship in 2009, but he pleaded for critics to leave the Connecticut Independent alone.
Asked whether he plans to retaliate against Lieberman next year by stripping him of his chairmanship on the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, Reid said, "Let's talk about this year" and stressed Lieberman's importance to the Democrats in the 110th Congress.
Robert Greenwald and Brave New Films have launched a petition drive that would have Democrats strip Lieberman of his committee assignments...

I just loved your picture of McCain and Liebermann captured and placed as the "ghostly twins" from the movie, THE SHINING. I laughed and made a copy of it to send to my Republican friend who is a long standing member of the Log Cabin Republicans!!! 
Kicking Lieberman out is overdue. They never should have let him caucus in the first place after he defied the voters of Connecticut who obviously did not want him on the ballot.
