Some say that Democrats In Name Only are an extinct, or even a mythical species. But I believe they exist.

The Dems are so kooked-out now, one would not have to be truly 100, or even 50 percent Conservative to qualify as a DINO. But even if they didn't exist, I would have to give Joe Lieberman an honorable mention. I even say, Thank God for Joe Lieberman, even though I know that he votes with the Democrats most of the time.

In fact, Joe actually has been labelled by his own as a DINO.

Compared to his peers, he has fairly frequenty sided with Republicans on key issues, like the war in Iraq and Free Trade. Lieberman also declared himself a "non combatant" in the 2006 congressional races and refused to say which party should have the majority. The Bush White House and Karl Rove openly lent him support, winning him a vast majority of Republican votes and the election. http://snipurl.com/bo7ss

He created quite a stir when he spoke at The RNC last year.

And, he "launched consistent, deeply partisan attacks on President-elect Barack Obama, questioning his patriotism and fitness to lead." He also stated that it was a "good question" to inquire whether Obama is a Marxist.

Yes, Joe has been a thorn in the Democratic Party's side. I have to chuckle whenever I read one of their tirades against him.

And let's not forget Zell Miller, who actually gave the Keynote Address at the 2004 Republican National Convention, where he derided the Democrats' "manic obsession to bring down our Commander-in-Chief."

Since the Inauguaration, one thing is certain. I'm sure feelin' a whole lot more love for these guys than the RINOs.

I understand, and I can't quite get over that myself. You're right, it is planned, and they're milking it for all it's worth. Getting at minimum triple duty - blame Bush, make more people dependent on them and finance their strategies with Stimu-Less money.

If Lieberman would have voted against the "Porkulus", maybe I could share your admiration for him, but right now, our country may be heading for a new Depression -- because it's been planned by Democrats. There's my new theory. It's all a plan.
