Oh, those GOP family values.


I'm following the upcoming Connecticut Democratic primary between "Rape Gurney" Joe and businessman Ned Lamont and, every so often, there's some unintentional hilarity, as when a member of the Lieberyouth was caught stealing Lamont yard signs:

"Why did you take those signs?"
"I'm just excercising my freedom of expression"
"No, you're stealing."

The Right: Dishonest? Or just stupid? We report, you decide.

Perhaps you could edify us on the following: how does a theft committed by the supporters of one Democratic candidate against another Democratic candidate in any way represent an indictment against the GOP or “The Right”?

I don't know -- could it be because Lieberman is effectively a Republican? And has Republicans campaigning for him?

“…because Lieberman is effectively a Republican?”

And you cite, as an authority, Mr. Theodore G. Peters Jr. from East Haven, a Republican, saying he’s going to vote for Joe Lieberman. I guess that is incontrovertible proof, as long as one chooses to ignore the fact that Mr. Lieberman is actually registered as a Democrat.

“And has Republicans campaigning for him?”

It was fascinating to read about those multiple buses of College Republicans that turned out to be a single bus load with no College Republicans. Nevertheless, there are presumably a substantially higher number of Democrats campaigning for Mr. Lieberman.

So based on the plain facts regarding party affiliation of Lieberman and his supporters, I assume you’ll be updating your piece to reflect that thievery and dishonesty are values held by Democrats and “The Left”.
