Joe Lieberman Writes Letters

My favorite news blog, The Huffington Post posted an article about Joe Lieberman (I-CT) writing letters from his Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chair position to the Office of Personal Management. Joe was seeking assurance that Bush political appointee positions are not being transferred to career government positions. Awww, you know what? It's laughable that Honest Joe is now trying to do well...his job by going after Bush' midnight career appointees. He knows that it was clearly Barack Obama who saved his hide from political death after the election by allowing enough votes to keep him on as Homeland Security chair. Now Joe HAS to do something, ANYTHING to show that Obama's forgiveness was not misplaced. What better way than to at least look like you're trying to do what your job description says you should have been doing anyway. Besides recent CT Senate polls show that the fair citizens of CT would vote for Ned Lamont if that Senate election was held today. Without a doubt, Joe knows that this is not the time to screw around.
