Lieberman also blasted Sen. Barak Obama for voting against a resolution to label the Iranian Revolutionary Guards as a terrorist group.

"These people are responsible for killing hundreds of American soldiers," Lieberman said." Senator Obama voted against that. Now, to me, that was an irresponsible vote. And I give Senator Clinton credit; she voted for it."

This item got lost amid Lieberman's other attacks on the Democratic Party and his ridiculous comparison of McCain to JFK, but I thought it was interesting.

Just to clear up Lieberman's lies, Obama had actually co-sponsored another bill that also labeled the IRG as a terrorist group, so that wasn't his objection to Lieberman's bill. His problem had to do with the fact that Lieberman's bill did not contain clear language saying that it did not in any way authorize the use of force against Iran. The bill Obama co-sponsored did have that language. And that's the reason many Democratic Senators who also co-sponsored his bill voted against Lieberman's bill.

LIEberman!

[FrenchieCat]

26. But, Hillary praises McSame all of the time, so guess the McSame camp is just

reciprocating in kind.

[babylonsister]

31. And he supports McCain. Go figure. He needs to be fired.

I don't know how; this is the gummint.

[JanusAscending]

36. Hey Sis !!

Am I crazy, or is this Iranian vote the one that Obama missed because he was sick from campaigning so much , that he lost his voice?? If I'm right Barack was absent the day the vote was taken, which makes LIEberman's nose grow a little longer !!!:crazy:

[Alexander]

23. No, but he proposed another bill that wasn't as warmongering.

Hence why Holy Joe isn't a fan of Obama's.

He's such a DLC x-chairperson just like the one who leads the DLC now.

13. So nice of him to give her some credit.

[TheDonkey]

15. Lieberman looked like a fool when the host told him about Obama's foreign policy in Pakistan

that the administration has just recently done but Obama talked about months ago and people attacked him for it. (Attacking within Pakistan to take out Al Quida targets)

LIEberman was so spineless he couldn't even say Obama was right but just started mumbling.

[movonne]

I love that graphic. I never forgot about that video game thing but it seems a lot of my more geeky/gamer friends never heard about it at the time. Anyone who's stupidly pro-censorship gets no love from me.

[Thickasabrick]
