As we saw earlier today, Lieberman is now a "no" on the public option, a position that is at odds with his 2006 promise to fight for universal healthcare.

[W]hat I'm saying to the people of Connecticut, I can do more for you and your families to get something done to make health care affordable, to get universal health insurance.

But here's a better quote, from the October 23, 2006 debate (video coming soon):

I have offered a comprehensive program, [...] MediChoice to allow anybody in our country to buy into a national insurance pool like the health insurance pool that we federal employees and Members of Congress have."

Why, that sounds like a ... public option! And it was said during the general election, not when he was trying to win a Democratic primary.

Lieberman, who is supposedly with us on everything except Iraq, delivered a bait and switch to the people of Connecticut. Elected on lies, he's now doing his best to stymie change for the American people. Par for the course. No one can say they weren't warned.

And Arlen Specter will be no different if reelected next year. These kinds of politicians -- feckless and lacking values -- will do and say anything to get elected, only to revert to form afterward.
