The Democrats decided Sen. Joe Lieberman’s fate this week after booting him from the Environment and Public Works Committee. A registered independent from Connecticut, Lieberman enthusiastically supported presidential candidate John McCain during election season, which rubbed some staunch Democrats the wrong way. The slap-on-the-wrist move was a blow to environmentalists, as Lieberman introduced the first climate bill in 2003, co-sponsored the Climate Security Act, and was known to criticize the Bush administration’s policies on global warming.
