Liberal Thinking

Rachel Maddow (and she is by no means alone) wants Joe Liebermann thrown out of the Democratic Party, the party of Liberals, for his actions in behalf of John McCain. She (they) should look up the definition of the word.
Liberal: Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded.

I picked on Ms. Maddow, because she prides herself on being "liberal."

Barack Obama, notably, suggested that Liebermann remain in the Democratic Caucas. Seems he knows what liberal thinking is.

Update: Tuesday, 1:30pm
Besides which, you might want to keep in mind that pretty much everything Obama has done has worked. Those who have been second guessing him are, um, nowhere. He might have a clue. Or two.

    Leave Lieberman alone. The Dems have an opportunity to prove themselves "liberal" and accepting of differences. Otherwise it would be the same partisan politics, even within the party itself.

    Please, for the country's sake, put partisan politics aside. The only thing lower than Bush's ratings were Congress, and that's why.

    Besides, lethargic bodies need gadflies. So there...
