Lieberman to lose committee chairmanship

[Popeye]

I sure hope this comes to pass though the article goes on to state he will still be allowed to caucus with the Democrats. I hope Lieberman will feel properly chastised by the loss of his chairmanship, maybe this potential humiliation will cause him to start putting the interests of his country before the interests of Likud and Israel.

Democratic leaders are discussing a major reshuffling of Senate committee chairmanships, according to multiple sources, and the proposed changes include ousting Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) from his coveted chairmanship.

Lieberman, a former Democrat who supports Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for president, is likely to lose his gavel on the Homeland Security Committee he has chaired since January 2007, say the sources who see him being replaced by Sen. Daniel Akaka (Hawaii), the committee’s third-ranking Democrat.
