LOL. Really? Look at his history when he decided to be "independent". If he's still IND that is.

I knew he was unpopular, but I didn't think he was that hated, 51,000,000 people voted for him in 2000 to be VP. But then again, millions voted for a ticket with Palin on it, lol.

He's perfect:

He'll get confirmed: the senate loves confirming his own
He's independent, people probably mostly know him as Gore's running mate
He'll be ineffective AT BEST
Listening to him drone can make anything boring, even an explosive investigation
 
Fuck this old piece of shit. The FBI Director needs to not be a career politician, but I guess it fits the mantra of the Trump regime to just put the shittiest choices for every position he can. Hopefully his nomination is blocked by Congress.

Woah, this thread back-fired lol. I totally did not realize the hate for him, interesting.
Older gamers will naturally hate him for beating the drum warning against videogames and their corrupting influence. He's basically the early 90s version of Jack Thompson.
 
Even if it weren't for the fact of Luck Fieberman, he's not even from the IC and has a conflict of interest with his private business working with Trump. So he's perfect.

Nobody votes for the VP, get out of here

Nice response, I'm sure the VP never has an impact on someone's vote, good point, completely reasonable to assume no one ever has ever voted in one way or another because of the VP on the ticket.

And I'll stay, thanks.

I mean, in 2008 he spoke at the RNC and endorsed McCain, and he's the single person responsible for killing the public option in the ACA. He's done some things since 2000 (and people don't really vote for VP. He was mostly just along for the ride).

But muh violent videogames
But muh healthcare.

Whether it's the political equivalent to arson, murder, or jaywalking I have reason to not like him!

If anything he poisoned the ticket for me. Granted I was a dumb kid a few years out from voting so it didn't matter, but even with today's knowledge I'd clench my teeth and deal with it rather than finding myself to have been TOTALLY dumb. Better than the alternative, and possibly worth ejecting him from the senate permanently by the time Obama came in, but maybe we'd just have president McCain or something due to how dumb the electorate can be about parties.

Lol, you really think the democrats will vote for this 2 face prick? The base would murder them.

He singlehandedly torpedoed the single payer option of the ACA. He did all his damage after his VP run.
 
Remember in GTA: Vice City when we were rewarded for "attacking a woman, pushing her to the ground, kicking her repeatedly and then ultimately killing her, shooting her over and over again?" Joe Lieberman remembers.

It's that keen grasp of the bleeding edge of technology that will lead him to victory as the head of the most prestigious law enforcement agency in the world.
