Ned Lamont Speaks to NH Democrats

2008, Ned Lamont, Video Posts No Comments »

New Hampshire is getting a huge amount of attention this election cycle. It was lavished with attention and candidate visits last year because of its first-in-the-nation primary, and this year because it is a swing state.

Apparently, NH is where the action is. So when I had the chance to go to the Merrimack County Democrats fundraiser to see Ned Lamont speak, I took it. Below are some highlights from his speech:

Joe2006.com Not Hacked, Apologies Requested

Joe Lieberman No Comments »

The investigation into the primary election day crashing of Joe Lieberman’s website at Joe2006.com is over. Gabe gives the rundown at CT Local Politics, but I just want my apology.

As a Lamont supporter who is also known to be a blogger and a user of the internet, I was one of the amorphous group of Lamont supporters who were accused of “hacking” Joe Lieberman’s website.

I am waiting for my apology. Senator Lieberman, Marion Steinfels, Dan Gerstein and Sean Smith may address their apologies to LiebermanIsSoVerySorry AT spazeboy.net. All will be cheerfully accepted and posted to the blog.

10 Commandments Weekend

Atheism, Joe Lieberman No Comments »

Surprise, surprise! Joe Lieberman is up to something that offends me. This time he’s co-sponsoring — actually, he’s the only co-sponsor — legislation with Sam Brownback that will designate the first weekend in May as “Ten Commandments Weekend” because May doesn’t have enough state-sanctioned supernatural hooey in it.

Friendly Atheist asks three good questions:

Which version of the Ten Commandments is Brownback referring to?

What do the first four Commandments have to do with anything?

Whom do I dislike more: Brownback or Lieberman?

As to which version, it seems that the orthodoxies of Brownback (Catholic) and Lieberman (Jewish) disagree on what the Ten Commandments are.

As to what the first four have to do with anything, I’d love for someone to explain that to me too.

As to which Senator Hemant dislikes more, I think it’s probably Brownback.

Five Years…

CT, Joe Lieberman No Comments »

…of war.

MikeCT has a run-down of events around the state today over at MLN, and excerpted below are the ones I think are nearest to New Britain:

There is also an April 12 event at Wesleyan University: Statewide Anti-War Student Conference and Rally.

McCain’s Monica? Enter Indignant Joe!

2008, Joe Lieberman 4 Comments »

CT Bob is praying that the story in the NY Times about John McCain is true. The NY Times report broke news about McCain’s possible romantic involvement with a woman who is not his wife, way back in 2000.

Personally, I could care less who John McCain is or is not doing the horizontal polka with, but I am excited by this possibility raised by CT Bob:

I just realized that if it turns out McCain was indeed boning this woman, we’ll possibly be treated with the spectacle of Joe Lieberman wagging his finger at him from the Senate floor! Holy fucking shit!


Transcript, with slight modifications emphasized:

“Such behavior is not just inappropriate, it is immoral. And it is harmful, for it sends a message about what is acceptable behavior to the larger American family, particularly to our children.
[...]
He failed to show that he understood that his behavior diminished the office he hopes to hold, and the country he serves, and that it is inconsistent with the conservative mainstream values that he has advanced, as a Republican candidate for president”

Joe wouldn’t do that to McCain of course, because he would only be screwing himself. The “Straight Talk Express” is the only ride he’s got.

LIVE STREAM Ned Lamont and Kal Penn for Obama

2008, Ned Lamont, Video Posts, Wesleyan University 5 Comments »

Today I’m going to venture into the world of live streaming, which is a departure from the videoblogging I have written about (and done) in the past. So if there are any kinks in the process, please forgive them.

As part of a final push for Barack Obama in CT, Ned Lamont (who needs no introduction here) and Kal Penn (of Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle fame) are appearing at UConn, Wesleyan University, and Yale University today, rallying students to Obama’s candidacy. As you may already know, Ned Lamont endorsed Obama–an endorsement that just got a lot more meaningful since the race is between just two candidates who are polling within the margin of error of each other in Connecticut.

Here’s a live stream of their stop at Wesleyan University (LIVE from approx. 4pm to 5pm EST on Feb. 1, 2008):
