Lieberman, 'de facto' President of the USA

Living in London, I have clearly missed a critical national election or several extraordinary interim appointments of individuals empowered to act as President of the USA in his absence. 

Many reliable sources have verified that the White House (muscleman Rahm Emanuel) has ordered the Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (NV) to give Independent Senator Joseph Lieberman (CT) whatever he wants in the health care bill to get it passed. 

Giving Lieberman what he wants means removing any link to Medicare, a public option or, in fact, any health care bill which does not significantly increase the profits of the insurance industry which he represents.

This shameless senator and his wife openly tout their lobbying and contributions from the CT insurance industry.

Evidently, the Senate ethics rules do not apply to this Senator who gives "corruption" a new meaning. 

The Connecticutt Democratic Party purged Lieberman for not representing their state and party.  He ran as an Independent and was elected. 

Over 80% of 'polled' national Democrats want Lieberman removed from the Democratic Caucus and disciplined for his wrecking tactics.

The President has refused.  In fact, he appears to have appointed Lieberman the 'de facto' President of the USA.

And I thought Sarah Palin was our only "Being There"*.
