Disclosure: I worked for the Lamont campaign doing web design and production and some writing for the official blog (from 9/5/06 to 11/07/06).

(Bumped.) While Joe Lieberman asks us to think about the "good stuff," while he still fails to call for any real Bush administration accountability on Iraq, and while accepts TV ads from a Bush-supporting Republican PR firm comprised of many of the same actors who bungled the Iraq war and its aftermath (including Dan Senor and Bill Kristol), the continuing debacle in Iraq continues unabated:
This includes three heroic servicemembers from Connecticut who have been killed in action in the last few days alone:
Sen. Lieberman has failed our troops by blindly supporting failed policies.
Support our troops. Elect Ned Lamont (D).
As of Tuesday, Sept. 5, 2006, at least 2,654 members of the U.S. military have died since the beginning of the Iraq war in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count.
This includes three heroic servicemembers from Connecticut who have been killed in action in the last few days alone:
- Marine Cpl. Jordan Pierson of Milford, age 21:
For hours during the Sunday wake, his tribe of friends manned the parking lot while much of the town shuffled past the impossibility in the casket. Impossible that this is the Jordan who was once a center for the wild energies of his friends. Impossible that the 21-year-old could take a form that didn't feature the mischief of his toothy smile.
- Marine Lance Cpl. Philip A. Johnson of Enfield, age 19:
"He was hell-bent on being a Marine," said Ron Jackman of Longmeadow, Mass., a family friend who was serving as the Johnson family spokesman. "When he found out he was going to Iraq, he was hell-bent on going. He had no fear whatsoever."
- Army Pfc. Nicholas Madaras of Wilton, age 19:
According to the Department of Defense Pfc. Nicholas Madaras, 19, died on September 3, in Baqubah, Iraq. He died from injuries he suffered when an improvised explosive device detonated near his dismounted patrol during combat operations. Madaras was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 68th Armor Regiment, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Fort Carson, Colo.
Sen. Lieberman has failed our troops by blindly supporting failed policies.
Support our troops. Elect Ned Lamont (D).

Have you taken a look at Joe's blogroll?
The No to Ned site's post for August 29 has a picture of Osama Bin Laden with a Ned Lamont bumpersticker on his turban. It reads "Four out of five terrorists agree... Lamont for Senate!"
Once again, this is the first link from Joe's official site.
Remember the huge stink Joe's campaign made over Jane Hamsher's blackface photoshop? And now Joe's blog blogrolls this?
Someone needs to blog about this everywhere.

What looks like a chip on Lieberman's shoulder is really Lieberman's failures coming home to roost.
The mechanic at the local repair shop told me today he will remove Lieberman stickers for free.
