Damn those independent thinkers! Who in the heck do they think they are, making a decision based on their own values rather than mob rule?

Have a good posting day.

RIP

More so than any other Congressperson, Dem, GOP, or I,

Lieberman is "sponsored" by the insurance industry. That doesn't necessarily prove that he's in their thrall, but to suggest him as some sort of "independent thinker" is a bit of a stretch.
Independent thinker?

You've gotta be shitting me! Hadassah Lieberman (born Hadassah Freilich in the refugee camp of Prague, Czechoslovakia, on Mar. 28, 1948) is the wife of United States Senator Joseph Lieberman (ID - CT). She is the daughter of Rabbi Samuel Freilich, a Holocaust survivor from Munkács, Carpathian Ruthenia (now Mukachevo, part of Ukraine and predecessor Ukrainian SSR since 1945, 1939-45 by Hungary of Axis powers), who died in 1993, and Ella Wieder Freilich, also a Holocaust survivor who died on August 6, 2004. She grew up in Gardner, Massachusetts, where her father was the rabbi at Congregation Ohave Shalom. She obtained a BA in Government and Dramatics from Boston University in 1970, and an MA in International Relations from Northeastern University in 1971. She has worked as a Research Analyst at Lehman Brothers (1971-72), as Director of Policy, Planning, and Communications at Pfizer (1982-85), and as a Senior Program Officer at the National Research Council (1990-93). Hadassah has also worked for the lobbying company, APCO Associates, that had many pharmaceutical and healthcare corporations among its clients, as well as four major drug companies such as Pfizer. In March 2005, Hadassah was hired by Hill & Knowlton as "senior counselor" in the firm's "health care and pharmaceuticals practice." Hadassah's close relationship with pharmaceutical and healthcare corporations while her husband introduced legislation benefiting these exact companies has raised questions about improprieties and conflict of interest.[1]
