Beamish Boy Ned Lamont Endorsed by the New York Times

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?

Come to my arms, my beamish boy!

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'

He chortled in his joy.

There’s more and more hope here in Connecticut that “beamish boy,” Ned Lamont has indeed slayed the Jabberwock, Joe Lieberman.

In today’s New York Times, the editors endorsed Ned Lamont in the Connecticut primary for U. S. Senate, citing, among other reasons, Lieberman’s continual blind eye cast toward Bush and his greedy grabs for more and more unchallenged power above and beyond what any president has ever demanded.

So it is much more than the war, Joe.

Lieberman had 18 years to represent Connecticut in the senate and he let valuable opportunities to “check” this current megalomaniac president – to balance the right wing religiosity and pomposity with some good old Democratic values, to represent all his constituents and not just promote his own agenda which is becoming more and more steeped in narrow-minded, religious fervor rather than broad and reasoned thinking.

He had the power and the choice to remind the prez he hasn’t been elected Messiah, only head of state, but instead he sidled up to the prez and buzzed him on the cheek.

Lately, Lieberman can’t complete a sentence without interjecting God or Lord somewhere before the period.

Is his statement that he asked God to bring him a poor challenger and instead he got a rich one funny? Not to me…just more invoking of God because Lieberman’s particular view of God is now coloring everything he does.

I would bet that Lamont believes in God too, but he doesn’t have to keep him/her/it on his shoulder like a pet parrot.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

Yes, "Joe the Jabberwock" is burbling right now.

His humongous hubris made him dismiss Ned Lamont as a nothing challenge, and in doing so he also dismissed a large group of Democratic supporters in this state.

We told him we didn’t support Bush’s fake war in Iraq and Lieberman just flared his nostrils, adjusted his tie and toadied up to W with a beatified grin.

He gave Connecticut Democrats the finger and then expected us to kiss his ring.

He got holier, and better than the people who put him in office and that, is never a good idea.

The latest political ad I received in the mail from the Lieberman camp is an upward shot of Joe with his arms outstretched like a backwoods, evangelical preacher with a box of snakes under the pulpit.

Joe is speaking to a group of high school students who don't seem all that impressed. In which Connecticut high school was he speaking?

None, the picture was taken in Merrimack High School in New Hampshire.

(If he doesn't fire his campaign literature creators then we can expect more of these faux pas to turn up from the turnips who are designing these brochures.)

Funny how inadvertently he epitomizes in this photo, the exact reason people want to send him home from Washington.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Yes, at one point in his career, Joe was brillig and slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe, but that was then and this is now.

Now it’s time for the beamish boy, Ned Lamont.

We like him a lot. And we’re going to come out in droves and vote for him on primary day.

We’re tired of Jabberwocky Joe.
