Lieberman's A Prick!

Yeah, yeah, I know ... What else is new ...

Unfortunately, it's not a case of the MSM taking the blinders off and getting hip.

H/T to Libby Spencer, for her "Fun with typos", who in turn, Libby H/Tipped Atrios for the pick-up.

AP writer Nedra Pickler, in her boilerplate filing on the breathless Vice President speculation that is running rampant out on the World Wide Web (check out Memeorandum for a peek), "Obama veep announcement expected in coming days" has this little gem (with our emphasis added);

His top contenders are said to include Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. Less traditional choices mentioned include former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge, an abortion-rights supporter, and Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Democratic vice presidential prick in 2000 who now is an independent.

God Bless'em ...

Lieberman just wasn't a prick in 2000, he's grown and built up his prickness with each, and every, day that has passed, to the point that he has become Stumblin' Bumblin' John McCain's Mini-Me, and should be sitting on the red side of the aisle in the not-soon-enough future.

So, a memo to the rest of the MSM;

Add this to your style manuals ... Joe Lieberman, from this day, forward, should always be referenced to as a prick.

Look "prick" up in a dictionary, and, at least one of the definitions indicates "See Joe Lieberman"
