Today's credit where it's due dept.: Lieberman voted against Clarence Thomas because of Anita Hill's testimony.
@rickperlstein He prevented Medicare buy-in for 55 -65 year olds - and he literally said the reason he was against it was that it was too popular with Progressives huffpost.com/entry/lieberma…
@rickperlstein And on the other hand, he was the single vote that kept the ACA from having a public option. I hope he enjoyed his publicly-funded health insurance as his health declined.
@rickperlstein Is it too cynical to assume he did this knowing Thomas already had the votes?
@rickperlstein He did it cuz he had cover..enough votes where in place
@rickperlstein First positive thing I've seen anyone say about Holy Joe, since the news broke. Okay, I'll give him that, but it feels like giving Mike Pence props for doing his job on Jan 6.
@rickperlstein No credit: Would have voted for him otherwise.
