According to sources close to Vierdsonian Democracy, Sen. Joe Lieberman, the former Democratic VP nominee and romantic liaison supporter of Sen. John McCain, has made a deal with the presumptive Republican presidential nominee regarding his abortion stance.
Lieberman has long been a member of the pro-choice camp, but he appears to be ready to flip-flop on the issue to ameliorate his pal McCain. To get into the VP slot for Grampa Simpson, Lieberman, to quell the nerves of social conservatives, made a deal that if he were picked as VP, he would only nominate pro-life judges in the event he became president.
The deal appears to be Lieberman’s last try at political relevancy, since his speech at the upcoming Republican National Convention will no doubt mean he will lose his committee chairmanship on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs when the Democratic leadership reorganizes. Since Democrats are believed to be extending their majorities in both the House and the Senate this year, Lieberman will be left out in the cold if he isn’t the vice president in a McCain administration, and he will be especially screwed if Sen. Barack Obama takes the White House.
Will this get Joementum the VP nod? Well, Vierdsen’s not a betting man, and word on the street has it that former Mass. Gov. Mitt Romney is the odds-on favorite. But, if he does get the historic pick (first guy to be VP nominee for two parties), this will probably be the reason.
Has anyone else in Carolina gotten that phone call with the robot who asks you if you’d still support Mccain if you found out he shaved his armpits even if it was for medical reasons?
What is your source for this information? This would be a great scoop if it turned out to be true!
John has to protect his sources, but needless to say it came from a well-placed Republican.
So what if John McCain shaves his armpits? This story is old. If he does IT IS FOR MEDICAL REASONS and that is probably because he was a POW. Have YOU ever been a POW? I doubt it. And when liberals try to make a big deal about how “he can’t do it himself and has to have an aide do it” it’s just CRUEL and distracting from the real issues. I hope they find out who is responsible for these phone calls.
Looks like old Joe is willing to do anything to be vice president but since he was passed over it turned out to be a bad choice would’nt you say?
