Lieberman's Extremities

In a more normal world, you would not filibuster your own party's premiere legislative priority and expect no consequences. As I've written, a filibuster is (designed to be) an extreme, "man against the machine" remedy in the service of deep belief; something that is,in reality, a risk. Take the risk if you want to, Joe, but expect real consequences.

Oh, wait. We live in a less-than-normal world.

Forget what I said. Harry told me to tell you you can do what you want.
