Of course the title is hyperbole, you dingbat. But beneath the tawdry, childish sensationalism lies a straightforward fact -- Joe Lieberman has to be tossed out of the Democratic Party. Right fucking now.
The instant Joe said, in his whiny-ass concession speech:
Tomorrow, our campaign will file the necessary petitions [to secure a place on the November ballot] so that we can continue this campaign for a new politics of unity and purpose.
was the instant he stopped being a Democrat, and he should be treated as such.
Right this instant, he should be stripped of all of his committee and caucus memberships, and every other perk that comes with being a Democrat, including every cent of funding he gets from the party.
The moment Joe announced his run as an independent was the moment he left the party, and it's only right that the party help him out the door.
