Lieberman to Baldwin: 'Make My Day'

Conn. sen. defiant after actor threatens run

Share

(Newser) – Alec Baldwin has "no use" for Joe Lieberman and is kicking around a move to Connecticut to run for his Senate seat in 2012—to which Lieberman tells CNN, "Make my day." The independent says he respects Baldwin as an actor and comedian, and "if he wants to run, that's his right."

Baldwin talks to his children like they are pieces of crap. He is a mean spirited monster. I hope he does run so Lieberman can run those audio tapes of Baldwin calling his child an asshole. Reply

"Treats his children like crap"....and you took this from a phone recording where a woman has been playing mind games using those children to drive their father to the breaking point. You must not have much in the way of life experiences where you have never seen an estranged parent battled and beaten till they almost snap by the opposing parent who only wants more money for child support, perhaps they want full custody in a battle and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. I hope you continue to be so lucky in life for if you are not lucky enough to have missed that then your just spouting off to hear yourself talk. I have seen a parent completely loose all control due to such mind games, the other parent knows exact;y which buttons to push to make it happen. I do not approve of the crap Baldwin said but it was indeed an isolated incident and I also have said things before I wish I could take back but once spoken you can't erase words

Oh, yawn....another skank deadbeat dad whining because he has to pay a pittance to support the family he abandoned. If there is anything worse than a subhuman poor excuse of a man who leaves his family, it's a deadbeat dad who whines about even the pittance he has to contribute to the one raising his kids. Women....you can stop the whining and deadbeat crap in an instance: don't be afraid to let the courts, public, friends, coworkers, and family know you need money INSTANTLY because deadbeat hasn't coughed up. Funny how they pay early after that. Well, maybe it won't stop the whining, but who cares? They're mental children, anyway, if they dumped the family, and will outgrow the whining when and if they decide to grow up.

Senators See Upcoming Vote on Obama—Not Health

Eye constituents' votes in 2008, not polls on health care

Nov 19, 09 10:18 AM CST
(Newser) - The upcoming Senate debate on health care reform, like the House vote before it, will be more a referendum on President Obama than a reflection of constituents’ concerns, Andrew Gelman, Nate Silver, and Daniel Lee write. What happened in the House is clear: 31 of 39 Democrats who voted no... More »

Dems Should Embrace a Health Care Filibuster

Open, Senate debate is preferable to backroom negotiations

Nov 11, 09 1:07 PM CST
(Newser) - The Senate is broken, writes Steven Pearlstein , its members so mired in dysfunction they don’t even realize how undemocratic current legislative practice is. The mere threat of a filibuster is enough to kill a bill, a fact that "violates the letter and spirit of the US Constitution."... More »
