Sen Joe to serve the way he was elected!! an Independent Democrat

but I’m going to be an independent because that is how and why I returned to the Senate. I was elected as an independent, I was elected, I believe, because I said to my constituents in Connecticut, “I’m, I’m as fed up with the partisanship in Washington as you are. I promise you I will put progress and, and patriotism ahead of partisanship and polarization.” So I’m going to—I am now an Independent Democrat, capital I, capital D. Matter of fact, the secretary of the Senate called my office and asked, “How do you want to be identified” and, and that’s it. Independent Democrat.

SEN. LIEBERMAN: Yeah, we checked with history and actually in the late ‘70s Senator Harry Byrd of Virginia listed himself as an Independent Democrat. You got to go back to the mid-19th century to find the last Independent Democrat.

OK so all of you ( JP, fIFE, duh) who want to tie the Demoncrats to the KKK will say that Sen Joe and Sen Byrdman are related with the KKK just because both serevd at one time as Independent Democrats.
Of course all of you will be wrong as usual but you will say it.
