Not much new has happened for Liberman since the post on Wednesday, except that he has returned to the senate and is attending to his duties there for the time being. But out of curiosity, what exactly is Lieberman's voting record issue-by-issue?
Attatched is a long LIST of his voting history. It is listed in alphabetical order according to category (i.e. veterens issues, science and medical issues, Indigenous Peoples etc.) Next to the issue is a Y for yes or a N for no according to how he voted. Each issue has a link which explains the situation in further detail.

Lieberman Approves Obama's National Security Team
Joe Lieberman seems to be returning to his duties as a Senator of CT after everything which has happened over the presidential election. He and Chris Dodd recently approved a grant of $38,000 on December 1st for the Volunteer Fire Department which was made possible by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) program.
Lieberman is still full of praise for President elect Obama and on December 2nd he publicly announced his approval of Obama's National Security Team. He Said quote:
"I applaud President-Elect Obama for assembling a talented and bipartisan national security team. At a moment in history when our nation faces both great dangers and great opportunities in our foreign relations, the President-Elect has begun to build an administration that can lead America forward on the world stage with purpose and principle."
Because Lieberman is a chairman for Homeland Security in congress, his approval of Obama's work in National Security provides valuble support to the President elect (even though Lieberman nearly lost his position a few weeks ago). Also, notice how Lieberman puts focus on how Obama has chosen a bipartisan team. Lieberman is an avid supporter of bipartisanship in congress.
