78. You are attributing statements to me that I never wrote.
Edited on Wed Aug-13-03 05:05 PM by GumboYaYa
I never said anything about facism or called anyone a fascist. I never said Lieberman is a Republican. I never said he was Lynne Cheney etc., but he does agree with them on some issues that are very important to me. You obviously have an axe to grind over this issue and you are not paying attention to the content of my posts.

The First Amednment is a big issue to me. I oppose any laws that blur the line between church and state. Lieberman does not. There is ample evidence of that whether you acknowledge it or not. I also strongly support freedom of speech and abhor even the most remote forms of censorship. Joe does not share that view with me. As I said before, Joe Lieberman is the anti First Amendment candidate. That scares me. I guess I'm not allowed to state own opinion without being accused of being a prevaricator, liar, and anti-Semite.

For another example, Lieberman has proposed anti spam legislation, another intrusion on free speech. I can go on all day with these if I have to do so.

It is fairly obvious that your vitriol is based in defense of a Jewish heritage. Just for your info, I share the same heritage but not the same belief system. My family had to escape Germany in the early 30's because of intense bigotry and hatred and I abhor that type of hatred. Please stop attributing those ideas to me. I honestly disagree with Lieberman's positions on some key issues.
