MSNBC: Lieberman just said "there's absolutely nothing to apologize for

about invading Iraq. Bush did the right thing"....:puke: :puke: :puke:
what he means by "the right thing" is the "right thing" for Israel...he made his Presidential run announcement from Israel sitting right next to Sharon...why didn't he make it here in the US? hey Joe... why not have Israeli taxpayers foot the $87 billion for the reconstruction costs of Iraq than?

Oh boy, what a relief to use all caps because it is not a new thread!

Lieberman: :puke:

just my 2 cents

on Hardball.

Very disappointing.

Eloriel

their proverbial bed and they don't want to acknowledge what a mess it is..

I know Tom Harkin said he "made a mistake" and would not have voted that way if he had known they were lies..paraphrasing here.

I don't understand why he thinks he has a chance in 2004 with the country so divided over the war.

(Dang, I'm a poet and didn't know it!)

Become the Republican he's been acting like for so long?

international cooperation without a formal apology for overstepping our bounds and going back to the "don't tread on me" concepts we hold? preemptive attacks against people that do not attack us is not what this country has been about, and the 2004 election is going to come down to whether America believes it should be the new way of approaching things. i hope we win, but it is certainly made more difficult when candidates screw up like this and give legitimacy to the actions taken...

Conventional wisdom says there are five candidates with a shot at the nomination. These are (note alpha order) Clark, Dean, Edwards, Gephardt, and Kerry.

While it is mildly amusing to knock the remaining candidates, there's really not much point to it. They'll be gone after New Hampshire.

Are people going to continue to criticize Dean for uttering this phrase that so aptly identitifies a handful of the potential Democratic nominee?

Clark has great points on the war. He can really make Holy Joe look like a wimp.

be President.
Joe, fold up the tent and go home, because you have less than zero chance to be President.

...don't think he's Jewish enough.

Not my line...it's from the Daily Show.


This one's mine, though...

for what he thinks is his idea.

I dont get this train of thought.

It involves opening up vast new numbers of positions as suicide bomber fodder.






As it would say in http://www.joe2004.com/site/PageServer?pagename=targeted_joesjobstour if Liberman were honest instead of sanctimonious (this is "Joe" speakin' now...you know what I hate about politicians? I hate ones that want me to use the familiar form of their name when they just want to fuck me like some cheap hooker...that's the best reason of all to like Howard Dean- HOWIE IS TO LAME TO USE! ...but I digress; here's Joey...er...Joe):

Joe's Jobs Tour
"Joe’s Jobs Tour" is taking Joe Lieberman across the country to meet with workers and families struggling under George Bush's failed economic leadership, which I agree with mostly except for real wierd Christian fundie shit, and to share my strategy for creating jobs and expanding the military by invading every goddam country PNAC tells me to. My manufacturing recovery plan will help transform today's producers (that is, China, Japan, India and Vietnam) into the factories of the future, make worker training more affordable and accessible, and ultimately useless, except to serve PNAC's agenda, and level the globe by cracking down on anyone who dares to come within a light year of expressing that maybe, just maybe, those guys who worship Allah might have a legit grievance or 2...

get a voter registration card from our state and fill in Joe's name and mark it Repug to send to him. Maybe he'd get the picture.

No doubt the press will treat this like business as usual though.

He wants you to comment on his integerity.

My message to Joeseph LIEberman:

You traitor. You are just as evil as the Bush Administration. You're a holy rolling hypocrite.

How can you support a pre-emptive attack on another country? It doesn't have anything to do with Isreal does it? You didn't actually put the theives in Isreal over the citizens of the US did you?

You are an evil man and have no business calling yourself a Democrat. Everything about you is Republikkkan, and I think you may be a plant BY the Republikkans sent to disorganize the Democrats.

If you had ANY integrity you would be apologizing for using up valuable oxygen that other, more honest people, could breathe.

The sooner the world realizes there is no god, the sooner we can have peace. Fighting over religion is like fighting over who has the best imaginary friend.

The job of the satirist becomes ever more difficult.

- Lieberman should be ashamed of himself. He has to know that Bush* is a liar that lied to rush this nation to war with a country that posed NO threat to our national security.

- Democrats protecting Bush* must end.

Joe is grabbing for credit that he thinks is rightfully his. He was the first out of the gate after 911 (in October!) to press for whacking Saddam:

"Whether or not Saddam is implicated directly in the anthrax attacks or the horrors of Sept. 11, he is, by any common definition, a terrorist who must be removed. A serious effort to end Saddam's rule over Iraq should begin now with a declaration by the administration that it is America's policy to change the Iraqi regime, and with greater financial and tactical support of the broad-based Iraqi opposition. In time, military support will follow."

http://www.iraqwatch.org/government/US/Letters,%20reports%20and%20statements/lieberman-wsj-10-29-01.htm

The following March, he takes a "glad Bush is warming up to my idea" tone in this press release:

"I am encouraged that President Bush appears to have turned the corner on Iraq, and now seems committed to changing the regime in Baghdad. When and how we accomplish that is up to our military and our commander-in-chief. Congress should be consulted more on strategy toward Iraq — but we should also respect the president's need to employ surprise, if necessary, in carrying out his plan."

...

"That certainly goes for Iraq, where we must deal decisively with the threat to America posed by the world's most dangerous terrorist, Saddam Hussein."

http://usinfo.state.gov/regional/nea/sasia/afghan/text/0307lbmn.htm

And here's this statement from this year:

"In fact, five years ago, after Saddam ejected the U.N. inspectors, John McCain and I gave up on containment and introduced the Iraqi Liberation Act, which, when it became law, made a change of regime in Baghdad official U.S. policy. You might therefore say that, when it comes to Iraq, President Bush is just enforcing the McCain-Lieberman policy."

http://www.usembassy.de/consular/munchen/speeches/lieberman2003.htm

And anyone else who thinks "about invading Iraq...it was the right thing to do"!

lieberman and his pious ass knows nothing about how Much he owes not only an "apology" but he and the others owe "Blood and Treasure" to the People of the United States and the People of Iraq.

why some of us are not ABB?

Either I have forgotton the acronym or...

...what was I talking about?

Sorry. It's "Anybody But Bush."

he should save that money

But I often see the word "Israel" used to mean "Likud." The same way that the Europeans are supposedly so "anti-American" because they oppose the Republicans. It's a point of propaganda that we shouldn't concede.

The Iraq war was convergent with Likud's interests, not with Israel's. This is not to say that Labor has been a shining beacon of sanity, but it is a small percentage of Israeli citizens who favored the war in Iraq.

To clarify: if invasion of a sovereign state that represented no threat to us was an honest memorandum of his principles, then he should not have to apologize for his vote.

Those politicians who sacrificed distant civilians for their political cowardice, they are the ones who need to apologize. Unlike Lieberman, they knew it was wrong.

Let's see: ALL Islamic states become inflamed against the US and its allies. Wonderful for Israel.

America goes bankrupt enriching Halliburton which has no interest in oilfree Israel. Fabulous for Israel which depends on American aid.

Come on, tell me those great benefits to Israel. I want to see the list.

Who would have thought that given the mountains of evidence before the war and the verifications/validations afterward that there were no WMDs in Iraq (not pronounced Eye-Wrack) that there may be reason to conclude that we were wrong to invade?

Well obviously not Joe. Like President Crotchsock, Joe believes firmly in what he believes, and what he believes is right. There is no need for reflection on whether he may have been wrong or mislead by our duly elected Moran 'n Theif.

Joe's vision of things past and present has no need for the inflexibilities of liberalism: namely truth, facts and wisdom.

He is a man of both integrity and charisma that clearly understand the depth of Emperor Bunnypant's soul.

My only question is if Joe wears kneepads when he gives it up to this unelected fraud or does he go sans?


I don't usually take potshots at the Democratic candidates, but every time that Lieberman opens his mouth in becomes evident that he should change his party affiliation. He is a firm example of what the Democratic party needs to move away from ...and fast. Also I have decided that I will not be supporting Holy Joe. We already have too many republicans in power.

crowd.

No vote, no way, no how.

Do not let this man get the nomination. If he does, I'm OUT of the Democratic Party and I know others will join me.

I would agree with you.

If he gets the Dem nod then I am out.

If this happens then our party becomes nothing more than a wretched farce.

Joe is supposed to be the good cop, makes us lean towards him in aversion to the bad cop, but they are both cops after the same thing

Oh, and thanks for allowing your buddies at Arthur Anderson to assist in ruining the US economy.

seriously
