Joe Lieberman: Great War, or The Greatest War?

[tony45347]

YEA!!! WTF now Lieberman you're McCain lovin ass lost and now you will lose your seniority because you backed the wrong horse!

[mason3081]

Previous post was directed at a 9/11 conspiracy theorist a few pages back.

Joe Lieberman is contemptible because he seems to view the U.S. government as a handy bodyguard for Israel. He is strongly aligned with the right-wingers from Israel, and would happily annihilate Iran to punish them for their aggressive talk and support of Hezbollah.

This isn't about him being Jewish any more than W.'s self-delusion is about him being a Christian. They are both ideological warriors, and dangerous.

[iamjesus666]

Joe Libermann is delusional

[Thesouthman]

joe Liebermann is a fucking OPPORTUNIST!!! WHAT A NERD..

[kmardes]

bottom line, america has absolutely NO business being in iraq, period. its blatant occupation, set up for the long term - forever. having bases dotted all across those lands is what brought 9-11 on in the first place. we wouldn't like it if other powers placed their forces in canada and mexico.

[kingrexrex666]

what a bastard....gives aipac a bad name....

[tragicnation]

What a pathetic puppet

[TruthForYouToo]

The basic question is: "Did Bush take his eye off of the ball (Osama bin Laden) and invade Iraq using lies to justify it?" The answer of course is, "Yes". Now, over 4,000 American troops are dead, about a 1,000 more people than were killed in 9/11 - and, there is no end in sight. This is a $3T war and it is killing the U.S. economy. Tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi citizens are dead due to the U.S. invasion. How can an illegal and immoral war be "right" for America?

[TruthForYouToo]

Lieberman, Bush, Cheney, Perle, Lefowitz, Rumsfeld, Rice, McCain. Tenet, and the lame-brained Reublicans in Congress, and all the rest of these idiots out there in America, are all the same: narrow-minded, stupid, morally corrupt, right wing nuts, anti-reason, anti-science, liars, cowards, and the list goes on. These people have all but ruined America and dumb shits like "ArmySoldier" asshole can't see it as it hits him in the face. They all are myopic nutcases.

[zak2di]

listening to this guy insulting th american people, he thinks we are stupid like most of those who voted for him, wake up folks

[beckpod1]

we can always depend on lieberman to confirm where the bias is. he'll take the shit and smear it all over his face...

He will stink like who ever he is defending...

He has the delivery of a severly constipated old man...and a firm disregard for any real truth....

Bush even kissed this man....Conneticut keeps this guy in business...Are the voying machines rigged or are they just stupid?

[AbuWaleed123]

Too bad we don't see the rest of the video where Lieberman basically says "Petraeus, I want you to invade Iran."

Look it up, there are plenty of other videos on youtube that show it. It is at the end of Liebermans "questioning".

Israeli blood is not worth one drop of american blood. No more war for isfake.

[wonk22]

How many so-called "American" Jews that are calling for war against the Iragis have sacrificed their children's blood?

[oldjoe5]

Lieberman's loyalty is not to the USA but to Likkud party

[Garcia0384]

No war for Isreal, no money for Jews.....They should be trotted off to the ovens..

[mrch1no3]

GO Leiberman speaking the truth, his colleagues (DEFEATOCRATS) refuse to acknowledge the undeniable facts presented to them by the commanding gerneral who IS acually on the ground in Iraq. They pick and choose to see, hear, &a agree with bits of facts to fit their DEFEATIST agenda.

Dems have invested so much into Iraq war/surge FAILURE that they are NOT interested in hearing the truth & simply will NOT accept any evidence of success OR progress bc it doesn't align with their FAILURE agenda.

[TruthForYouToo]

You have been completely brainwashed by the neocon propaganda machine. Review what started all this, the lies upon lies that got us into Iraq. The total bungling by Bush and his minions. This is an illegal and immoral war by any measure, and still the perpetrator of "9/11" goes free. This war is about oil for the U.S. for the future, and secondarily for an infinite U.S. presence in the Middle East to protect Lieberman's Israel.

[ArmySoldier11BRAVO]

TruthForYou you have been brainwashed by the liberal isolationist defeatist propaganda machine. Regardless now about why we went into Iraq and the mismanagement of the way the war has been handled, we created this mess and now have some kind of responsibility to fix it. Always focusing on the past and defeat will not secure success and progress. I agree it is true we went in for oil, to protect US interests and to protect Israel & I do NOT have a problem with that. I STILL SUPPORT THE MISSION!

[TruthForYouToo]

It DOES matter how we got into Iraq. It's both illegal and immoral, so should we continue the illegality and immorality because we are doing it now? Hell, no. We broke Iraq; completely destroyed their country & murdered thousands of innocent people. Their is NO WAY we can "make it better." We need a responsible disengagement, but a complete one. Iraq's people will decide what they want to do with their own country. I do not support anything about the so-called "mission". It's baloney.

[ArmySoldier11BRAVO]

truthforyou, the US military has "murdured 1000's of innocent people"...screw you for making such an irresponsible and completely heinous claim. You couldn't possibly know the sacrifice our military makes to SELFLESSLY serve. You wouldn't have the courage to put your life on the line for this country, and you don't have the right to defame or attack the good name and honor of our troops. You libs always focus on the past and wish defeat for US...cowards ready to give up, f*ck you p*ssy!

[TruthForYouToo]

FUCK YOU JACKASS! MURDERER. BULLSHIT ON "our military makes to SELFLESSLY serve you." Young guys are coerced and lied to by unscrupulous recruiters; they make promises they break; they pay off the recruits - we have a force of freakin' mercenaries. If they had any balls, they would lay down their weapons and say. Hell no, I won't kill another innocent person for George Fuckin' W. Bush. So, "ArmySolder11Bravo" bullshit, you can kiss my ass. You don't know shit from shinola. You beyond help.

[TruthForYouToo]

Suck a dick, you yellow prick. You are a goon, a non-thinking stupid goon. Bush and Cheney's goon. You are a coward - you don't have the freakin' guts to take a moral stand for what's right; you simple do as you are ordered - you have no brain. You're an killing automaton and you think you're "serving your country". Get a life, Jack.

[GIJonathan730]

I'll give credit to Lieberman for being one of the only people who is not a Republican and relized that the enemy that attacked us on 9/11 is now killing our troops in Iraq.

[ourcause]

Are you serious???? lol the enemy that attacked us on 9/11 was moles within the U.S. govornment. Where have YOU been for the last 5 years? Stop watching Fox News.

[mrch1no3]

ourcause, YOU ARE A COMPLETE MORON! Actually its been almost 7 years, which only confirms to me you haven't bothered to turn on the news, read a newspaper, educated yourself, or keep up with any current events (LOL).

So, according to you Fox is the only news channel that believes terrorists attacked us on 9/11? You are obviously an idiot bc I hate to break this to you, but NO news channel (not even the liberally slanted ones) or any credible politician (Dem or Rep)believes your conspiracy

[ArmySoldier11BRAVO]

With all the people out there that despise Bush & all the 1000+ people that it would have taken to pull off the most horrendous attack in history...don't you think with all of the leaks & whistleblowers there would be at least someone out there (if not 100's lined up) who were directly involved with hard/believable evidence that would love to expose & bring down this admin. It would be the biggest NEWS scandal ever they would love to run it but its NOT on the news bc NO ONE RATIONAL BELIEVES IT

[kmardes]

if you tell your fat sister to get off the remote so you can change the channel from fox, then you might learn something. the media moguls control the masses, and there are very few of them. the jewish lobby controls american tax dollars going to israel, and we fight their wars for them. its clear as day to 95% of the world. the u.s. has bases in god knows how many countries. can you say 'empire'? its just painted with a different brush, and you're just a pawn. yes, i was in the army too.

[MACKATTACK1970]

Joe Lieberman is the biggest traitor, scumbag, backstabber in the history of mankind.

This filthy sleazybag does not work for our countrys best interest nor does he care about the citizens or well being of our country.

Plain and simple, this piece of filth should be arrest for the traitor he is, locked up and the key thrown away.

Lieberman is a traitor.

[mason3081]

This administration is too incompetent for them to pull off a grand conspiracy. They're not (with a few exceptions) evil, just delusional.

Don't dilute the case against the Bush White House (cronyism, Justice dept., torture, permanent detention of suspects, illegal wiretaps, etc.) with conspiratorial fantasies of them planning a terrorist attack on their own country. It looks just as bad as the perfectly intelligent Muslims in Egypt, Morocco, etc. who believe that Israelis planned 9/11.

[FeelFreeToArgue]

Facts? You want some facts? The drops in deaths have come from 1) paying off former insurgents to stop shooting at our troops. 2) a cease-fire initiated by the very Mahdi Army that is still ceaselessly vilified 3) a withdrawal by American forces to the 6 or so heavily defended multi-billion dollar permanent bases we're building in Iraq, and 4) a shift in focus to killing Iraqi civilians safely from the air. Take those facts, you party-betraying warmongering little neocon.

[FeelFreeToArgue]

Hey, all you people ranking me down - which of my reasons are wrong? Or, perhaps you're upset at my characterization of Mr. Lieberman, in which case I also invite you to disprove those characterizations. Otherwise, I will assume you have no ammunition for your beliefs, and are merely upset to hear that your country does atrocious things and that this established neocon liar continues his lying ways.

[ambientdiscord]

lieberman was the one that write the legislation that allowed bush to pretend he had the right to go to war with Iraq. lieberman was also the one that wrote the initiation of war with Iran in the "Iranian ntl guard = terrorists" he is just trying to make the war sound good for the tv cameras.

[Garcia0384]

You need to stop referring to this character by name and simply refer to him as Jew....No sense in confusing people as too what his background and motives are...

[3SM3x]

Lie-Berman is a worthless piece of horse shit...

ROOT in HELL fool !

[RJWooller]

TOTALLY AGREE

[cincinnatusnow]

Neocon agendas cloud the truth.If you are benefitting from the Iraq war agendas the glass is partially full it seems- and what about the defense stocks some of these guys are making money on? The defense of our nation is priority one-not agendas or profits.They should be more focused on Afghanistan,but it must not be as profitable or important to the neocons -eliminating Israels ememies seems to be more of a concern than terrorists threatening Americans.

[xpowerlinex]

have these guys been under a rock for the last month?! What about those facts?

[andystokie]

"drop in American deaths" well last year, the first year of the surge saw the worst year for US deaths, and unfortunately the deaths are again on the rise.

[mcalien24]

did he ask questions? or did he just say were doing great but really not that great. and certainly not great enough to end this war.

what the fuck connecticut? vote this guy out!

[gulffrit]

Where are the photos of how bad Iraq is? Haven't seen any? Guess the Liberal media doesn't want you to know it is not going as bad as they report. There are careers that need the US to fail in Iraq so they can continue reporting their flawed ways.

[xxironballzxx]

i stopped it at "the charts you've shown". yeah im sold all the lines going down! forget logic just pass me the kool-aid dude.

[ytofhassan]

Zionists like Lieberwomen wants another war for Israel and these liars help him to kill more Americnas for Israel and oil.

[socctty]

Joe Lieberman is as asshole. A large amount of the success is due to two things: Sadr called a cease-fire before the surge, and Sunnis stopped attacking Americans and Shiites BECAUSE WE ARE PAYING THEM TO STOP. Thus developing a scenario where they are essentially dependent on us paying them, and where they extort future payments out of us in exchange for not killing Shiites and American forces. Does that make ANY sense?

As for you anti-Semites, no one takes you seriously. Its not 1936 anymore

[ArmchairRevolution]

"As for you anti-Semites, no one takes you seriously. Its not 1936 anymore"

Ron Paulbots are partying like it is...

[mcalien24]

i completely agree. anti-semitism is one thing. however, criticizing our policies toward israel is quite another. those are often conflated in efforts to defend israel. i feel that lieberman is actively working in israels interest. The problem is, its becoming more and more acceptable to say that our interests are synonomous with israels. they are not.

[socctty]

I agree that our Israeli policies are flawed. I'm not accusing people who criticize them of being anti-Semites. The Anti-Defamation League has a tendency to do that, which is a shame, because it means no one takes them seriously.

However, it's one thing to say "Our blind support of Israel handcuffs us", which is valid, and another thing to say "Lieberman is a fucking Jew who doesn't care about America" or "the gun is the only solution to the Jewish problem", which paraphrased Mein Kampf.

[Garcia0384]

There is only one solution to the jewish problem: The Gun.

Words and reasoning will not do, they will rape and scorch the earth to "survive" and now they are all about the preemptive strike crap.....Fuck them and anyone who defends them.

I will not sit down here and watch America go down the dumpster because of these worthless people...

Who was the dumbass that gave them a crap load of money and a damn country? They should be roaming endlessly and kicked out repeatedly..

[bodah44]

I know what you mean about those pesky jews there outside my house now raping and scorching as i type im just so scared mabye you could come over with your small dick and even smaller racist retard brain and save me

[ArmchairRevolution]

"Words and reasoning will not do, they will rape and scorch the earth to "survive" and now they are all about the preemptive strike crap.....Fuck them and anyone who defends them."

Eichmann called he wants his hatred back.

[Garcia0384]

Joe Lieberman is a fucking jew, he could give a rats ass about America....He wants the country that he conned to elect him into office to throw itself onto a grenade for Isreal.....Fuck em, no wonder they trotted off these damn people to the gas pens and ovens...

[PreetSG]

I do not like Lieberman but I hate racists like you more! It is him not his race or religion. In what way is he throwing a grenade for Israel? He is doing it for his own political base. No one deserves to go to be killed in the millions for crimes they did not do. I seriously hope you apologize...

[russelljgarner]

i hate joe liberman

[devikkyrn]

Since when do you start a war with the goal of not having people die? You can't point to the decreased death count and call that progress. We're not in Iraq to lower the death count.

[proteanview]

Lieberman is an agent of a foreign government. He, like Feith, Podhoretz, Kristol, Perle, Krauthammer, Frum, Wolfowitz, is a terrorist. He is an enemy combatant. His Iraq war has killed more Americans than bin Laden & Hussein combined. Americans are dying as they shore up the Mosul-Haifa pipeline, giving recently privatized (US companies) oil to Haifa, Israel. This man should be hanged or sent to Gitmo... the 'tropics'.

[saympson]

O Rly?

[fkhabiri]

Lieberman is truly disgusting..

[elpretentio]

can lieberman possibly stick his head any further up patraeus' ass?

[ro266]

Liebermann Independant/Republican, how can the people of Conn live with themselves after putting this warmongerer back in office??????

[gobigorange99]

How can people in Conn. voted this guy back into office? I guess ole Joe only watches Foxnews. Damn, Joe pin a metal on the Gen why don't you!

[saympson]

go watch the daily show faggot

[luvmegan]

Saympson What is the daily show faggot? Is it Hannity or even Dick Morris? You must be the "You Tube Faggot." Do yourself a favor, learn punctuation and logic skills before embarassing yourself further. On the plus side, at least you are terse. Small minds usually are.

[saympson]

aww how cute, you are offended by me not using correct puctuation ?.l/;?

[gobigorange99]

Did I offend you? Hey asshole, I don't need to watch a TV show to make my own opinion. But you on the other hand have to watch Foxnews so they can do will the thinking for you!

[fishhead06]

Joe Lieberman: John McCain's running mate.

[crosshillchris]

What is his angle? - what is he trying to gain?

[haobio]

I can't believe he was democrat eight years ago.

[neotoy]

he seemed totally baked.

[brick4sale]

Lieberman is evil he wants to blow up Iran so bad, I say we strap him to the bomb and grant him his wish.

[hobo71]

nanquan491

[holdingcompany]

Joe Lieberman.

Wouldn't it be great if he got his face shot off in the war?

[hennypenny247]

Amazing how you so-called pacifists can spew the most vile, violent sentiments.

[tngu77]

I agree 100%!!!

[gbgzp]

What a tool! Joe "Elmer Fudd" Lieberman wouldn't know about facts if it slapped him right in his jowly face.

[ikekll]

[MISSBEBEBLUE]

yellow belly turn coat sell out ass

[nanquan491]

Doesn't Joe Lieberman look like a Muppet?! :D

[ArmchairRevolution]

More like Snoopy ala The Daily Show.

[nanquan491]

Btw I agree with what he said, regardless of his Muppethood.

[ikekll]

"Thats a Q'dtat"

[UTBESUX]

Lieberman is one of the biggest political frauds in the United States! He was a Democrat & then when people didn't vote for him he changed to Independent & got help from Republicans. Of course he won the election with the help of Republican voters. That is a BIG F.U to the people. There should be a law against it. Our system is a joke. I recall during his debates in the 90's he called Machine in rage as he called them were ANTI FAMILY and ANTI u.s that BAND? RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. Clueless!

[ImperiusRex]

i don't agree with him on many things, but I'm not sure why anything you said makes him a "fraud." His political positions seem sincere, he doesn't appear to be corruptable into voting against his principles, and regardless of how he got re-elected in the last election, the fact is that the general population of his state overwhelmingly chose him to represent them again.

[gbgzp]

The fact is, he campaigned on an anti-war platform and now he champions it like the rest of Bush's lap dogs. It's amazing to think that you honestly believe that a politician is being sincere when he's talking about all the progress that's taking place in Iraq and that too much attention is being paid to the failures. Have you not been paying attention the last five years?!

[ImperiusRex]

He had NOT campaigned on an anti-war platform. Don't see how you can say that he did.

Personally, I never supported the war, but I'm not so close-minded to believe that he can't genuinely hold his positions (simply because I can't relate), regardless of the popularity of those views. I certainly don't see how he benefits politically by supporting American foreign policy, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt in his sincerity.

It doesn't help our cause to argue in such childish ways.

[gbgzp]

OK, I stand corrected, he didn't campaign on an anti-war platform. But the argument he and his elk make that ant-war advocates don't acknowledge the progress made in Iraq is totally misleading. At every turn, the Bush administration has failed to acknowledge the mistakes and pitfalls they've made and ignored any advice that they found to be contradictory to their plan. The US will never get out of Iraq by having papers run stories of school openings in Baghdad. Lawmakers need to face reality.
