Joe Lieberman is one of the few remaining anti-appeasement Democrats, so naturally Daily Kos front page writer “Hunter” is spewing venom at him: Daily Kos: Lieberman Goes The Full Zell.

I have to hand it to Joe Lieberman — seldom has a man been willing to so publicly void his intellectual bowels in newsprint or to such impressive effect.

This classy opening line is followed, in the usual Daily Kos style, by a rambling 2000-word rant full of childish ad hominems, concluding with the only definition of “appeasement” they’re willing to recognize.

I can think of only one example of recent Democratic appeasement: the way Senator Reid and others have constantly appeased Joe Lieberman, in spite of Lieberman’s constant and increasingly rabid attempts to undermine his previous party. As has been amply demonstrated by Joe himself, appeasement does not work.

Remember that the Daily Kos writer who calls himself “Hunter” is the same person who posted a deliberately dishonest, laughably stupid defense of CBS’s fraudulent memos, pretending to be an expert and succeeding only in proving himself a complete fool. If you enjoy inadvertent comedy mixed with vitriolic hatred, his Rathergate post is a sort of classic in the genre.
