He was a lousy politician, a troublesome disruptor and he won't be missed.
Great comment and he voted for the war in Iraq
word.
I'm sure he is in a warmer place.
He was a warmonger who put Israel's interests above America.
He was a completely useless democrat a shield for big pharma and the medical industry he is the main reason why we don't have single payer health care in this country I'll not shed a tear for him.
He wasn't a Dem. He was an Indie and was elected as one. He caucused with Dems (most often) because even back then the GQP was corrupt as sin and had nothing good for the American people just like today - otherwise, yeah, agree
At least he did one thing properly. Health care is not a right.
_Psst_
All Democrats are shields.
@@whiskeymonk4085 Only someone who had proper coverage would say that.
@@DDd-gm8uz Darn straight. Proudly shielding this great country and even its most ignorant citizens. #VoteBlue
Strange how that happens to everybody
Best comment today. 🏆
Will his tombstone have No Labels?
Brilliant, sir.
Lol, that's funny.
Clever, but we'll have to wait a year to find out, when the marker is laid.
The man who voted for Iraq's war.
So, is this proof that evil does not live forever?
his fake godmyth called him is what happened. his tribe is the only people that are saddened by this stroke of luckOwitz.
He was called by his father Satan to go home,
got both Kissinger and Lieberman this year.
And nothing of value was lost...
Not a fan
a dubious legacy
Who cares.???
Whatever did he accomplish for the taxpayers in the USA after 24 years of griftng a living ..
Let's see how many national news programs report on your passing..
True
Sad you don’t know his accomplishments. Only Trump made people pay attention to the news for the first time in their lives, but then people turned to the far-right and believe Fox News, Newsmax are “independent news.” Fair and balanced. 😂🤣😆
@@brazilnut8898 At least people won't be rejoicing around the world when it does happen.
@@brazilnut8898 Or in other words, you know he's right, have no examples to offer, and feel like you need to compensate for your dented ego. Got it.
Hallelujah!!!😊
Ah, the Senator Manchin of his day, prevented the public option (Medicare for All) so that we ended up with Obamacare. He will be truly missed by all the rich healthcare insurance CEOs!
and his friend Mc Cain who ran up to the front of the senate to vote thumbs down on repealing it. That was the deciding vote
Time to meet his God and answer for his deeds.
Also, Millions of killed Iraqis and Palestinians
Good riddance.
Lieberman was a PoS who tried to outlaw video games, skateboarding, and rock music.
Sounds like some good laws to me.
Really? Had I known all that, I would have voted for him!
@@BillSmith-rx9rm YOu would have been voting for FLOTUS Tipper Gore cuz it was her gig, he just me2'd it
@@JuanHernandez-ev4bbyou sound like a Boomer who is soon to follow Lieberman.
@@taxirob2248You sound like a kid who will never own a house.
This lefty infighting is very entertaining. Carry on.
Happens to all of us.
Lieberman became progressively less liberal as the years progressed after 2000 presidential election. However, I remember he did A LOT of lying during his campaigning with Al Gore. May his soul make restitution.
Bye bye *rolls eyes*
OOO THE SECRETS WE WILL DISCOVER ABOUT LIEBERMAN ... 'DEATHS, REMOVALS & RETIREMENTS' TIC TOC, TIC TOC!
AIPAC has lost an investment...
Good bye and good riddance to a backstabber.
Senator Aetna.
The slave insurance company 😢
Exactly
TERM LIMITS
We, the people, limit them by voting in a fair system - how about get rid of partisan Gerrymandering and the filibuster for starters? eff term limits, the concept is meaningless without fixing the machinery of democracy
@@tomaspita7244 Filibuster is made up by Senate rules, blame current parties and Senators. Originally, Senators had to stand and talk as long as they could, then vote would take place.
@@raybod1775 Thanks. I'm well aware of the origins and history of the made-up antidemocracy Whig rule giving 'a corrupt junta' the ability to veto majority rule in the greatest deliberative body in the world (founder)
Here is my take on the mechanics of our republican form of government (which the states are constitutionally guaranteed)
Give all eligible Americans *equal* access to the polls
Eliminate partisan Gerrymandering so its 1 person, 1 vote in the House
Eliminate the made-up filibuster so the Senate can function
Codify against Citizens United and remove ALL money from politics
Circumvent the Electoral College with the popular vote compact - The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC) is a proposal that would maintain the Electoral College while ensuring that the candidate who wins the national popular vote becomes president.
Unpack the stacked extreme court of activist jesters (SCOTUS - shamed court of the United States)
Lieberman was never a favorite of mine.
War monger. Don't want ceasefire in Gaza. Now more oxygen for others.
The man just passed away and almost became VP. Show some respect.
Why? He was a serial advocate of mass murder.
@@CoolAce1-dv1pnagreed. He was a good and decent man and he and his family deserve respect.
You do realize that the real war mongers are the people calling for ceasefire right? After all we can't allow a clear cut victory for either side to occur because that might allow **gasp** peace to break out. So the war mongers want to only reset the cycle of violence again so in a decade or two we are right back at square one just as we have seen play out for decades now.
How many Iraqis died because of the war criminals he supported? How many American citizens died because they couldn't receive affordable medical treatment because of Lieberman? I'll save my condolences for the children of Gaza, thank you very much.
Has a better chance of standing for something in death than he ever did in life
Boy couldn’t handle the stress
I care! I wrote him many times and always got a response and I thank him!
Just imagine if Al Gore would have won
That's a call back lol
At least you didn't say "would of won".
He would have stopped being my Senator sooner, so it would have been a greater win.
A big reason Gore lost is because he picked Lieberman as his running mate.
We wouldn’t have invaded Iraq in response to 9/11. The Iraq war was and remains a catastrophe. We can thank Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz for creating a crisis that continues to this day.
The world is a better place now.
No Great Loss. Traitor!
Sorry, I have no love for Joe Lieberman
It doesn't matter if you have no love for him. He has passed away.
thoughts, prayers, disdain, love.. nne of it matters now. He has fallen
Not a single person asked you. This isn't a survey.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He is at peace. NO MORE OF THIS WICKED WORLD.
He unfortunately contributed to its wickedness during his political career. Although he became more balanced in his views in his later years.
Rejoice!
The most fitting thing we could do to mark Joe Lieberman's passing is to pass a public option.
😑 .... anyway.
Bye Felicia.
Fatality.
He was kinda useless at this point any way.
He never worked across the isle, he was a traitor
Was it Sen. Lieberman or Joe Manchin that founded No Labels? I forget. They traded top spots at one point.
Lieberman was NOT a Democrat, he was a registered Independent - but like Bernie he caucused with the blues.
I broke my hip, or rather full pubis from a direct imppact less than a year ago. Men survive broken hips better than women on average.
When I read the headline "..dies from a fall" all I could think of was Putin and the Kennedy spoiler campaign that is designed SOLELY to through the 2024 election to the House. (RFK JR's #1 money man happens to be DJTs #1 money man, Tim Mellon). I thought... " _Did Joe finally get it?_ "
ALF will be sad.
turncoat
I Get a kick out of blue infighting.
I would have died too if i were him in the present state of affairs in USA. I bet his last breath was so fucking amazing.
"Breaking news" for this guy?
Now the flowers will grow 😁
Gta 6 to be released on this date in the future would be iconic
Say it ain’t so.
He seemed so honest.
When is the Big Guy following suit 🤔... c'mon Mr. Reaper 🙄
When the Big Guy (in the sky) "goes", your fairytale will be over and no matter how many times you give Tithe (10%) you'll be just like the rest of us who live in reality instead of imaginary friend picture books
Someone at the rest home didn't put
The wet floor sign down.
Congratulations you just kill
A politician.😑
My heart goes out to Senator Lieberman's family relatives and friends for their loss.
May ADONAI comfort you in His fathomless love and care, as you grieve and mourn your loss of Senator Lieberman. My condolences.
Worked with Ch9na.
Drumpf?
@@tomaspita7244 Lieberman, was a Lobbyist for China's ZTE.
W.H.G.W.-WHAT HATH GOD WROUGHT?! OH THE HUMANITY!😮😢😮😮
He's as dead as the Affordable Care Act?
He's in Purgatory now, just like he wanted.
Thanks for the betrayal memories.
Well, that's one less member of the Likud Party.
Who pushed him? 🧸
People quality > Party.
Anyone can pretend to be anything to win votes (ex: Santos), but not everyone = high quality. McCain should have picked him even if loss seem inevitable in '08 with the market crashing and the great recession looming. I voted for Obama and waited until 1-2 am during election night for confirmation with friends, especially as Palin's choice confused me, but I would have considered McCain and thought about the choices more if he was VP.
Gone not nearly soon enough
Rip
Who gaf
I never understood why some believe we must speak well of someone after their death regardless of the life they lived. I was happy to say I learned to detest this man when he was alive and apologize to no one save his family for saying so now that he is dead.
Fair enough
The archetypal stalking horse, a total phoney.
This is why older politicians need to retire. Age 82 makes people fragile, something as basic as a fall can take them out.
Queen Elizabeth II worked up to her last day and she was 96. As long as a person is of sound mind, how long they work is their own business, imho.
But he couldve been pushed down a flight of stairs, who'd know?
@@rosemarie20she’s not a politician, she was the UKs mascot for tourism
@@conditionallyunconditional5691 Yes, much like Mitch McConnell with his "accidental" falls.
Goodbye
Like him or not, making disgusting comments about his death is just sad. What kind of people are we??
We are good and decent, unlike him.
thank you katherine
He accelerated the death of individuals with pre-existing conditions and those who couldn't afford healthcare. I don't condone it, but as someone waiting to dance on the grave of Mitch McConnell, I certainly understand it.
Why does he have a big nose?
The Patriot kind 👍
Had Gore chosen a better running mate, we'd be living in a much better world today.
but would the oceans be boiling?
It wasn't Lieberman's fault at all. He was very popular at the time.
Fact
Gore didn't even win his home state of Tennessee, where they know him best.
Sen. Lieberman became a "cheerleader" for the Republican Party, according to this young reporter? I sure don't remember THAT!!! Sure, he was a cheerleader for a few of his republican friends, but for the whole party? Where did this girl go to college, and how old is she? She doesn't know what she's talking about. Or maybe it was just in the script they gave her to read.
In 2024 you have to be Team Red or Team Blue, there are no nuances. He was a nuanced person who repeatedly was sent back to Congress because he had a "D" after his name and the Republican Party wouldn't even endorse their own candidates in CT.
"Where did this girl go to college" College is indoctrination.
I was around for all of it and she is dead right. Lieberman became a horrible man after 2000. He sure championed many more right wing causes and the excesses of Likud. The world is a better place without him.
@@daveh1869 better place without him in politics - ewe know nothing about his civilian contributions, familial affairs, or civic responsibility
@@tomaspita7244don't care. What he did with his political power outweighed any good he could have done in his own backyard. And he ruined the possibility of Medicare for all in 2009. How many lives could have been saved with single payer healthcare? No debate on that, the statistics don't lie.
NEXT!!! STEP RIGHT UP!!
Siehp Joe Liberman I'm from CT😢
bye lieberman. otherwise......schumer and netanyahoo would live in the white house.
Eighty years is a pretty solid run..
and a deuce kicker to boot. Happy trails Joe LieBerman
No comment.
He didn't do anything for the American people
While I am sorry for Senator Lieberman’s family, I really wish the members of No Labels would hold off until the threat of trump is gone.
82 eldery a fall is deadly at that advanced age he had no business still in office. Biden if he is reelected wont last four years with out the need of a walker or he will fumble bumble fall serve the rest of his term from a nursing home.
While I might agree with you on an upper age limit for elected officials, Joe Lieberman left office 11 years ago
How did the famous turncoat fall? Did he slip on a banana peel? I never liked him. But I think he might've been killed.
we did NOT hear "hospital window" but we didn't hear 'broken hip' either, so yeah, I hear ya
🥺 Such a sweet Man. I miss those days when Politics had normalcy and this Country wasn't a joke like it is now bc of Magats. RIP Sir 🙏🏽✝️
It’s the democrats hate that’s continues such mayhem.
@@davajames5839 It's both sides....hence why I am an Independent. GOP & Dems are like choosing poop or vomit atp. Either way your going to stink.
@@davajames5839What a foolish thing to say. Think before you write such nonsense.
If it weren't for politicians like Lieberman and their centrist BS, this country wouldn't have elected Trump.
