i love bob cesca. i thought i had him in my links, but apparently i didnt before today. bob is an all around awesome writer & thinker and owner of the best blog name EVER. he’s got a new book out too! he’s also a contributor to the Huffington Post, where i ran across his open letter to Joe Lieberman today. its a great read, but a long one, so i’ll only post pieces and portions here. if you havent been by his blog yet, you should sooooooooo go. now. quickly. RUN!
Dear Senator Lieberman,
Congratulations! You got away with it! So despite having supported and endorsed the Republican candidate for president — and going so far as to question the patriotism of the Democratic nominee — you’ve managed to keep your chairmanship. By rights, you should’ve been summarily ejector-seated from your committees, bonked on the head with your gavels — cartoon-style — and hauled from the Democratic caucus naked and on a rail whilst being pelted with wadded-up copies of your RNC address.
You got away with it, despite those meddling kids, right?
Not so fast.
I submit to you, Senator Lieberman, that you were punished yesterday more than you realize. Stick with me on this. I’ll explain.
