Comments on: Protestor Demands Probe Of White House Over Katrina, Lieberman Responds He Won’t ‘Play Gotcha Anymore’ http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/30/lieberman-katrina/ Wed, 25 Nov 2009 23:32:20 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: alis http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/30/lieberman-katrina/comment-page-2/#comment-1639531 alis Sun, 04 Feb 2007 20:52:10 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/30/lieberman-katrina/#comment-1639531 Lieberman is afraid that if he encourages any "accountability" re: Katrina, someone might start holding HIM accountable for the $385,000.00 "petty cash" campaign expenditure. He sure doesn't want to be held accountable for buying votes on the street in the CT primary. Maybe he made a deal: he doesn't look into what happened in N.O. and Bush will bury the investigation here in CT.

My nephew lost his school and parent. This was not caused by Katrina, but by the "AFTERMATH" . So don't blame this on the weather.... Put the blame where it should be Lieberman.

Democrats don't control the Senate anyway. With 60 votes required to accomplish anything, no progressive legislation from the House will see the light of day. Better to jettison the irstwhile democratic senator from neoCon-neticutt now from the caucaus and look for honor in opposition. Give the republicans back their rope: Then take the Senate in 08 by a landslide. Note to Sen Reid. Democrats don’t control the Senate anyway.
