Lieberman "They want to kill us all" talking on CNN....
Lieberman just stated the terrorists don't distinguish between Democrats and Republicans they "want to kill us all". He is for scaring Americans the same as Bush. Somehow I don't have the feeling "they want to kill us all", just the people who have invaded Iraq. What is with him on this issue.

2. Joe Lieberman sits down to pee.
Edited on Sun Feb-12-06 12:30 PM by Old Crusoe
That's not intended as a sexist remark, only to suggest that I want Democrats to stand up for their party, for the tenets that hold it together, and for the individual versus the corporate state. I'm tired of sycophants like Zell Miller and Joe Lieberman, two of the most pro-Bush Democrats imaginable.

I hope Connecticut Democrats choose LaMont in their primary.

Let's bid Lieberman a swift adios.

12. Me, too!
And I have more gonads than Lieberman!

Mine are just tucked INSIDE my body, and thus, more protected and tougher than any pair of "balls."

17. I don't doubt that you have bigger and more balls than Joe Lieberman.
I don't doubt it for a second.

Also, I'm guessing you're for General Clark in 2008 and would say that his chances improve every time Joe Lieberman opens his mouth.

41. LOL
I literally laughed out loud when I heard Lieberman on Sean Insannity's radio show Friday because Sean said that the Dem Party would win on more national security issues if more of them were like Lieberman. :rofl:

I thought to myself, "No, you idiot, Sean, the Dems would have more national security creds AND wouldn't have to give up their liberal ideals if the General was in the forefront."

Lieberman doesn't have national security creds - I can honestly say that all Lieberman has is treasonous thoughts by placing Israel ahead of the United States. What's good for Israel is not necessarily synonymous with what's good for the USofA - and my Jewish husband agrees with me.

14. Hi, annabanana. Not meant as a sexist remark, only to say that
Lieberman does the bidding of the administration no matter what instead of standing up for himself.

That is, standing up to think, or pee, or anything else.

7. sell out dems speak of "the terrorists" just like republicans...
...as though there was this vast army of unidentified enemies out there waiting to pounce on unsuspecting Americans. This is social control by fear-mongering, plan and simple. Maybe Lieberman and the other dems who do this-- and virtually all of them do to one degree or another-- maybe they've really bought into the notion that since 9/11 America has been facing a rabid horde of barely restrained "terrorists." Nonetheless, it's basically a lie, and at best a terrible oversimplification. What America faces is anger at American policies and behavior. It is entirely within our power to overcome that anger, but instead of the political will to make serious changes in the way America conducts itself, we get the cheap and easy way out-- fear-mongering and a "war on terror."

44. I agree, mike-c
You say "What America faces is anger at American policies and behavior. It is entirely within our power to overcome that anger, but instead of the political will to make serious changes in the way America conducts itself, we get the cheap and easy way out-- fear-mongering and a 'war on terror'."

If not for our policies, there would be no reason for people resorting to acts of terrorism. Our actions in invading, and occupying Iraq will keep providing reasons for Muslims to respond by retaliating against us. Bush has created far more "terrorists" than Osama ever dreamed of. Every heavy handed action, every injustice we inflict, and every death we cause in the Middle East only adds more fuel to the fire.

I am not afraid of terrorists except the ones currently in the Bush administration. They are causing violence to increase against us overseas, while destroying all of our social safety nets and bankrupting our country here. Those are the ones who frighten me.

9. Senator Lieberman is correct, Democrats died on 911 also
Democrats have died and are dying in Iraq also. The terrorist organizations don't bother about political ideologies, all they bother about is how many Western infidels they can kill at one time.

23. Well
When they plant bombs where innocent children are congregating in Baghdad, when they blow up pizza parlors in Jerusalem, and when they fire rockets haphazardly from the Gaza Strip, I don't believe your beloved, discerning terrorists are being very discerning.

33. "I" haven't killed one....and neither did anyone in the World Trade Center
Edited on Sun Feb-12-06 12:35 PM by ...of J.Temperance
Neither did any of those innocent Iraqi women and children blown up daily, neither did the innocent children in the Jerusalem pizza parlor...yet it didn't seem to matter to your discerning terrorists. If you want to justify such frivolous killing, be my guest. Just don't be surprised when people find your defense abhorrent.

The examples that I'm giving are supposed to say to you, that the terrorists don't bother what political ideology a person has, they will kill anyone and they do kill anyone.

On Edit: Dammit spelling error.

35. Since it has been pretty well established that Saddam and Iraq...
were not involved in 9/11 why are those innocent Iraqi women and children being blown up daily. Because we invaded Iraq on a lie, plain and simple. As far as the Israeli bride, that is between Israel and the Arab countries and has been going on forever. That does not have to do with Americans. I believe we have dropped bombs on Iraqi and Afghan weddings too which resulted in many deaths. They were not terrorists. I am totally against the terrorists but I am also against creating terrorists which the Bush administration has managed to do.

38. I agree
I was against the Iraq War and I'm still against the Iraq War. Senator Lieberman is correct though, the terrorists aren't bothered if a person is a Democrat or a Republican, the terrorists aren't bothered if a person is a Liberal or a Conservative, they kill regardless of a persons political ideology.

I am for breaking this cycle of violence...and this means calling out ALL terrorist attacks. I will not justify any terrorism by pointing out the terrorist attacks of someone else.

Our freedom to invade any country that we damn well please, that is . . .

Joe, go home. Maybe you and Zell Miller can get together and drink yourselves senseless. You are worse than useless.

That's my opinion on the matter. He makes decisions based on the best interests of Israel, not the Aerican People.

We have a winner...and it only took 20 or so posts.

Knowing this basic fact makes most of Joe's actions understandable...no need for sophisticated analysis here.

He's one of the point men...

25. Well to be fair, the Anthrax was sent by an American Terrorist
that is probably still employed by the U.S. government.

It can't be easy to "acquire" biological weapons from the army unless you have some pull..

An American intelligence operation--unless of course you think that the US government just can't make the case against Hatfill, while having NO PROBLEM securing evidence for 'rendition'.

40. They torture credulity


With their cries of fear. There has been forever those who would harm others. Why this need to have the American people cower over this latest manifestation of threat to personal safety? You live with it, or you stand like a deer in the headlights and suffer the consequence. That consequence entails allowing a cabal of fear-mongers to grasp absolute power over our lives.
