Lieberman, Collins set to announce new Iraq group

http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Lieberman_spearheads_Iraq_group_1207.html

Senators Joseph Lieberman (I-CT) and Susan Collins (R-ME) will announce tomorrow the creation of a "bipartisan consultant group" of chairmen and ranking members of Congressional committees "to facilitate government process affecting Iraq," RAW STORY has learned.

Information released by Lieberman's office did not indicate whether the group would include chairmen and ranking members of committees in the House of Representatives, but RAW STORY has learned that the invitation is to be extended to Senators only.

The announcement comes the day after James Baker and Lee Hamilton released the eagerly awaited Iraq Study Group report to a lukewarm reception from observers and politicians alike.

RAW STORY is currently attempting to confirm which Senators have been invited to the meeting and which of those plan on attending.

But continue with the cheap shots at Israel.

Sorry. I forgot. Israel can do no wrong and our foreign policy goals should be directed in their interests, and not our own.

Thank you for continuing to remind me of this truth

should be held in some other way than shots at Bush and his warmongering?

how's that?

I'm very excited about this plan. Let's do it!

yeh, Joe, like you have an credibility you turncoat slime.

I think they should be renamed 'gropes'. as in groping for time.

barkeep: Hey Joe, whaddya like?

Joe: Nothing american. I have other obligations. Hit me with a Corona.

anything on the homeland security committee, i mean anything useful?

A more useless duo you could not find.

...in pro-Lieberman editorials this year.

Given the handling of Katrina, that is nothing to be proud of, though.

and i really hate the name "Homeland" it reminds me of "Fatherland"

Garofalo said, "If we do this, we're doomed."

Senators Joseph Lieberman (I-CT) and Susan Collins (R-ME) voted for the Iraq War Resolution.

:shrug:

Which would be good, putting aside that these two pro-illegal war fucks are useless on this issue.

He's no longer a Democrat.

HE IS NO LONGER A DEMOCRAT.

This fact must be repeated, again and again. He is not a member of the Democratic party.

I was watching C-Span for a while today, and some of those R's are starting to let fly about their new-found distaste for dead American soldiers. I guess they got the go ahead. Too much more of this kind of behavior, and Joe is going to become even less in stature than he is now.

This Tuesday, Loserman said he opposes a "politically motivated withdrawal" of troops in the Iraq war of aggression.

He is sounding more and more like a rethug operative. Too bad we have to pay so much attention to him!:puke:

He's a pompous ass whose only purpose for establishing this committee is to give himself a higher profile in the new Congress. Sue won't get a word in edgewise...this is Joe's show.
