Lieberman staffers paid to lie?

At the Greenwich Lamont rally Friday evening, I spent a good amount of time videotaping the Lieberman "volunteers" who were milling around the edge of the crowd and generally being obnoxious. I took shots of many of them and asked every one if they were being paid to be there.

EVERY ONE of them loudly said, "No, I'm just a volunteer." Not a single one admitted to getting their lobbyist money from millionaire lawyer Joe Lieberman.

And yet, in today's Hartford Courant, we see this quote from Marion Steinfels (Lieberman's Communications Director):

Marion Steinfels, a Lieberman campaign spokeswoman, said the Lieberman workers had stayed within bounds.

"They went to Ned's rally in support of Joe Lieberman," she said. "My understanding was there was no inappropriate behavior."

I guess Marion was too busy counting her DC lobbyist money to have noticed the "sno-cone" remark made by one of her vicious little curs at the rally. (see previous article)

Earlier in the day, Lieberman said he had been unaware of an earlier incident in which a group of his supporters tried to drown out a speech by Lamont supporter Jesse Jackson.

Classy bunch of people you got there, Slimefels. I wouldn't be surprised if you've had to cover all the mirrors in your home, because you felt a little odd every time you saw Karl Rove's reflection staring back at you.

Steinfels said Lamont's supporters had been harassing Lieberman for months.

"Our events have been continually stalked by Lamont supporters. There's a lot of emotion out there," he said.

First of all Stupid, we're not harrassing your boy. We ask questions, we drive a stupid float around, and let the magic happen.

And we may be Lamont supporters, but we're NOT PAID BY THE LAMONT CAMPAIGN, and we don't receive our MARCHING ORDERS FROM ANYONE!

You can't comprehend the fact that we simply feel that Ned Lamont is the only man who can stop the damage that Lieberman is doing on a daily basis. We do this because we are passionate about the issues.

YOU, on the other hand, need to BRIBE these poor, uninformed kids with your DC LOBBYIST'S MONEY, and then YOU SEND THEM TO LAMONT EVENTS! I have video of your STAFFERS being loaded into LIEBERMAN VANS after the rally.

And you pretend not to know the difference.

Marion, either you're a baldfaced LIAR, or you're too STUPID to see it. Either way, you should stop paying these kids little drabs of money, and do some good in the world by putting the $10 million into a scholarship program for inner-city kids. THAT would be something to be proud of, not your lame and desperate attempts to disrupt Ned's events.

And we will be at EVERY event from now until the Primary, keeping your kids under video surveillence. We don't trust you to use good judgement as things get worse for your boy.

Smarten up, Marion.
