Lamenting Lamont

Ned Lamont was tonight's guest on The Colbert Report. I wanted to make a super-simple observation of what Lamont sees as the major difference between he and U.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT). Lamont claims that Lieberman wants to spend more money in Iraq while he wants to "invest" in America through programs like universal health care, education, and other social programs. In a nutshell, the difference between these two candidates is the hole they intend to throw YOUR money down.

 

It's like getting to choose what your mugger spends the money he steals from you on--drugs or booze. Either way, you'll still end up being robbed.
