Not Your Sweetie

Two termites
Joe Conason Diary

As if any new spigots of pap were needed in the pre-presidential race, two more have opened up with Joe
Lieberman gushing on the right and Al Sharpton gurgling on the "left." These two look like opposites, but only to
the untrained eye. While both would resent the comparison, the paragons of public piety resemble each other in at
least one crucial respect: Neither the New York preacher nor the Connecticut senator is a loyal Democrat. Each has
sought publicity by undermining the party whose nomination they now seek.
