Michael Moore Threatens Democrats

Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore, following the Connecticut primary defeat of Sen. Joe Lieberman, issued a direct threat to his fellow Democrats: Denounce the war in Iraq or you’ll get what Joe got.

In a letter to his Web site visitors, which served as fertilizer for blogs everywhere, Moore raged that Ned Lamont’s anti-war victory was the beginning of a revolution among liberals.

Writes Moore on his Web site: "Let the resounding defeat of Senator Joe Lieberman send a cold shiver down the spine of every Democrat who supported the invasion of Iraq and who continues to support, in any way, this senseless, immoral, unwinnable war. Make no mistake about it: We, the majority of Americans, want this war ended -- and we will actively work to defeat each and every one of you who does not support an immediate end to this war.”

Moore referenced the 2004 Democratic presidential ticket – John Kerry and John Edwards – as two Democrats who voted for the war who have now "seen the light,” but because they "sided with Bush . . . may never enter the promised land.”

Moore saved his most pointed criticism for Sen. Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic frontrunner for the presidency in 2008.

"To Hillary . . . You will never make it through the Democratic primaries unless you start now by strongly opposing the war. It is your only hope. You and Joe [Lieberman] have been Bush's biggest Democratic supporters of the war. Last night's voter revolt took place just a few miles from your home in Chappaqua. Did you hear the noise? Can you read the writing on the wall?”

52% to 48%

ppffft....

So when Joe wins the senate seat as an independent what message does that send out?

As often said, the Democrats need to find an agenda. Maybe the have. Maybe the war in Iraq is "the issue".

Bush and the GOP won because they were more trusted to handle security issues than the Democrats.

The Democrats can't change the subject or try to shift the attention to economic, environmental or any other of their weak assed "key issues". Maybe they realize it. Maybe they are going to grow some balls and take national security head on without being wishy washy or vague or ambiguous.

We'll soon see.

It sends out the message that the Democrats don't have a clue and that Lieberman was right all along.

I predict that if Lieberman wins the DNC will be implode.

It could happen.

That WOULD be the correct thing to do....but's it's been 8 months since Schumer announced there would be a master plan.... still no alternative to GOP, except, "they messed up Iraq". Perhaps some focus groups will tell them what to think, and what a correct alternative would be for Iraq, other than simply up and leaving, which polls poorly outside of Hollywood.

I strongly suspect Moore will wear out his welcome with the DNC long before the elections and will be given the order of the boot.

No wonder the dems want to register as many illigal aliens as possible to vote...

Joe sixpack is turned off by the parade of losers who are supported and support the democrats.

Was listening to a high up in the democratic committee and he was saying that illegals were the real core of the new democrat because they were the most interested in "human rights" (read socialism) and that they were most interested in a "level playing field".
