  Norwegianity — Authority: 471

  Angry White Dude — Authority: 138
  SENATOR FRANKEN - PATHETIC, STUPID AND NOBODY LIKES HIM I thought Nancy Pelosi as Speaker was a new low for our country. I thought Hussein Hopenchange was a new, new low.

• Soundbite: Lieberman Is Still “The Same Old Joe”

  
  Mediaite — Authority: 785
  “He’s the same old Joe who has been sticking it to Democrats on high-profile issues for two decades. What’s changed is everybody else. In our increasingly tribal politics, both sides are more demanding of ideological purity than they were when Lieberman came to the Senate in 1988.” ...

  Blanca DeBree Blog — Authority: 118
  This is just horrible!  I mean if someone on the right tried to do this, they would be accused of Antisemitism, but when someone on the left does it, it gets a headline on the Huffington Post and a coveted spot on You Tube.  Oy, oy, oy, the hypocrisy!
