LIEberman speaks to Salon.com: prepare to barf

[Neecy]

Salon: It is almost a year to the day since you lost the Connecticut Democratic Senate primary to Ned Lamont and filed for reelection as an independent. Are you happier now politically then you were as a Democrat?

Lieberman: We joke about "Liberation Day" , but there's a lot of seriousness to it. I have felt liberated.

--snip---
Lieberman: I worry that whoever gets the Democratic nomination will have a hard time scampering back to assure people that they're prepared to take on the Islamist extremists and other nation that threatens our security.

Salon: Turning to another thing --

Lieberman: They don't use that. You'll have to check it. But they don't use the term "Islamist extremism" or "Islamist terrorism" in the debates.

Salon: Are you saying it's "political correctness" on the part of the Democrats?

Lieberman: You've got to acknowledge the problem.

Awwwwww....widdle Joe is whining that Democrats don't use the insipid "Islamic extremism" or "Islamic terrorism" hate speech.

Asshole. Asshole.

1. Connecticut voters make our country proud daily.

2. It should be right wing islamic extremism. Like the DUer pointed out the other day.

3. What we have here...

Is another example of a politician using a Islamo-bogieman threat to usurp the democratic process.

Shamefully, he wallows in it like a hog in a mud puddle.

It's like an epidemic these days.

4. Yeah Joe, We Know You Don't Love US Anymore. You Love Bush** Now. We Saw You Making Out With Him

5. Oh yeah, other than the war, he's a lib. Right. Read the part about Gonzalez?

Just part of it. Visit the link already given. LIEbermann is a lying piece of work:

Q: Let me ask you about another vote -- your vote that puzzled me the most. That was when you were the only Democrat to oppose a no-confidence against Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. This was a vote that had nothing to do with the war in Iraq. And you are both a former Connecticut attorney general and someone who remembers the politicization of the Justice Department under John Mitchell during Watergate.

A: Let me reconstruct that. It was earlier in the year. I think I thought that it was essentially a political vote. And the question on Gonzales was ultimately -- he serves at the pleasure of the president. And that there was nothing but political intent to the resolution. Forgive me, I should go back and look that up.

Q: Rather than getting into that, what do you think of Gonzales now? Do you think he should stay as attorney general?

A: That's the question I don't answer. Look, I will say that his credibility has really been in doubt. He has handled his appearances here -- and I must apologize by saying --

Q: I know that you're not on the Senate Judiciary Committee.

A: I actually haven't focused on his appearances, so I am relying now on the media as to what actually happened.
