Lieberman on the floor not regretting his vote on the IWR.

[Mass]

Repeating the same talking points than Bush about the international community thinking that Saddam had WMDs.

Dont withdraw or there will be civil war in Iraq, Iran, and Syria.

[LeftCoast]

1. What is wrong with him?

:grr:

[WePurrsevere]

11. Why does LIEberman even call himself a Dem anymore? Is there anything that

he disagrees with the RW RepubliCONs on?

I still can't believe this weasel of a man was Gore's running mate... :puke:

[fedupinBushcountry]

2. CHICKENHAWK

His statement makes me sick.

[tridim]

3. Just like his President, he needs to go

The Connecticut people should be able to handle that.

[Gingergal]

4. I hope Lieberman runs again for president

so he can have another humiliating defeat. Why can't he just keep his mouth shut?

[Stand and Fight]

5. That Sorry Piece of Shit

He ought to go to Hell. Why doesn't he just change his political affiliation? He's obviously nothing more than a Republican Neo-Conservative of the first level. Disgusting... How do they work with this guy?

[ray of light]

7. Go across the aisle, Loserman, your not helping.

[still_one]

8. we are already in the middle of a civil war liberman, YOU IDIOT!!!

please change your party affiliation

[Jacobin]

9. of course he doesn't

Israel loves the U.S. blowing up its neighbors so it can expand unimpeded

[still_one]

20. where is that coming from?

because Lieberman is Jewish, are you making some association?

The U.S. went to Iraq because of the bush administration and congress giving bush unprecedented power enabled by the morans in this country who not only elected him twice, but gave him a rethug congress

[Jacobin]

31. Yes, of course I am

Why do you ask?

[still_one]

45. because liberman does NOT speak for all Jews in this country

yet alone for Israel

boxer and feingold are Jewish and opposed the war in Iraq as two notable exceptions

[BigYawn]

54. You are exactly right...Israel is more important than democratic party

to Sen Lieberman.

[still_one]

58. frankly nothing is more important than the U.S.

over any political party

and going into Iraq not only WAS NOT IN OUR BEST INTEREST, it was based on a lie, unethical, immoral, and is being done in our name

[Mass]

10. He accuses the debates to be partisan debates

(what does he think Bush is doing?)

Talking about the past will reduce the support of the war!

[bahrbearian]

12. Now I've heard it all .. Reading from the Bible.

[WinkyDink]

13. Not to put too fine a point on it, but

Joe IS Jewish (hey, HE made it a big deal, about when he would work if V-P).
Removing threats to Israel might be a good thing to him.

[Mass]

14. But the war in Iraq does not remove a threat to Israel, on the contrary

Feingold is Jewish too, so are Levin and Boxer.

[still_one]

22. It is so easy to stero-type that all neocons, and PNAC

represent the Jewish opinion in this country, when the majority of Jews are liberal, didn't vote for bush or the neocon agenda

[Canuckistanian]

35. Right! And is Dick Cheney Jewish?

Of course not. And Cheney is a charter member of PNAC.

[still_one]

43. so is rumsfeld and others who are not Jewish

[KoKo]

32. Yeah...but their are Sharon supporters and those who want to work for

Peace...There really is a difference. Just like here in America there are Bush Policy Supporters and those of us who feel he's gone "THE WRONG WAY."

Liberman seems to hold "loyalties" to something besides the Christian Right...so we need to take that into consideration...don't we? :shrug:

[Mass]

37. So it is not the fact he is Jewish. It is that he is an idiot.

[still_one]

44. sounds like you hit the nail right on the head

[KoKo]

49. He is an Idiot who has loyalty to a "cause" that interferes with his DUTY

as a Senator from Connecticut. However, CT does still make money from "Defense Contracts" and he saved their Navy Base in Groton. So, he uses his War Mongering to tell folks he saves their local industy...while still supporting efforts that have to do with his relgious loyalties.

So, see, it's hard to go at Lieberman because he always has a "defense."

:shrug:

[KoKo]

50. CT...a state full of Bedroom Community Stock Brokers, Venture

Captialists,Wall Street Lawyers, Old Money Gentry, Defense Community i.e. Military Bases and Indian Gameing....

Lieberman does well for them all. (I don't think I've seen a connection to the Indian Gameing...but who knows...the way he's chummed it up with Bush...maybe theirs a DeLay/Abramoff/Reed/Norquist connection somewhere there. Big Money/Wall Street/Old Money Wall Street and Defense are the big things that run that state. It's "socially Dem" but loyalty is always about what's in the wallet and the trust accounts.

I lived there once...in the heart of the beast...Greenwich, Ct.

[BigYawn]

55. I disagree...Saddam was an openly declared threat to Israel..n/t

[Dinger]

15. Fido Ought To Go Back In His Doghouse,

and stay there. Woof - woof

[Stand and Fight]

16. Somebody shut this bastard up.... Now and forever. n/t

[flpoljunkie]

17. Lieberman has no honor--the same rotten shit they said back in Vietnam,

and we were right about Vietnam--all those dominos did not fall. George W. Bush welcomed the head of Vietnam to the White House just this year.

Bullshit, Lieberman. Stop peddling this scurrilous crap! "Encourage the terrorists!" Lieberman uses the same disingenuous lines as Bush. We will stay there as long as it takes and no longer"--Bush's exact words!

[radio4progressives]

18. Does Lieberman have to make another run in '06?

Are there any prospective anti-war/populist Dem candidate to run against that freak?

[still_one]

25. There was a rumor that Paul Newman might run for his seat

but haven't heard anything about that for some time

[Mass]

26. After this, I will welcome anybody.

[still_one]

29. I am from California, but will contribute to anyone who runs against him

[Mass]

34. I am from MA, but I feel the same way

[mmonk]

56. I'm from NC and will do the same.

[Douglas Carpenter]

61. I'm outside the U.S. at this time -- but I will certainly contribute

to a credible primary challenge

[Idioteque]

19. The Democratic Party is finally getting on the same page with Iraq...

...leave it to Holy Joe to screw it up.

[still_one]

23. forget about him

as long as the majority in the party do the right thing he will become irrelevent

[Mass]

21. For god's sake, Levin watered down the amendment so that all

could sign it and Lieberman is not happy.

He will vote against it.

[flpoljunkie]

27. Where do Lieberman's loyalties,priorities lie?Certainly not with his party

Supporting the troops is not sending them to war because you want to, but when you have to. Shame on Lieberman, Bush enabler. He disgusts me.

[BigYawn]

57. Lieberman is convinced he helped Israel and USA by removing

Saddam who had openly declared demolition of Isarel.
If Saddam attacks Israel, US was bound to jump in as an ally.

[Idioteque]

39. If Lieberman is gonna be a turncoat, Levin should put the good stuff back!

Lieberman should shut his mouth and abstain from the vote. Every word out of his mouth is a stab in the back to his party.

[Stand and Fight]

24. Of course he'll vote against the Levin Amendment!!!

But vote FOR the Warner Amendment -- could this bastard be anymore of a D.I.N.O.?

[flpoljunkie]

28. Will they be voting on the Levin and Warner amendments tonight?

[Mass]

30. Tomorrow.

[joanski0]

33. Lieberman has made me so sick to my

stomach. He sounded just like bush*, only a little more coherent. Yes, he said he was voting for Warner's amendment and against Levin's amendment. Lieberman says No timetable. Lieberman says forget how we got there, and so much more. Lieberman has made me hate him.

[damntexdem]

36. What a RINO? Defender of torture!

We also need to get rid of Lieberman.

[Career Prole]

38. Miserable piece of shit says the problem is a lack of trust between the

Executive branch AND THE DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS!!

You fucking moron, who on earth trusts those lying bastards anymore?!
The fucking repukes don't even trust the Executive...they're only in it for the money.


Question: Does anyone in Connecticut own a yellow dog? May we borrow it?

Lieberman MUST go!!
:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

[joanski0]

40. Warner says "we are so fortunate that our

friend, the Senator from Connecticut has joined us". Well, this is the final straw for Liebershit. What a slobbering pig.

The Senate is adjourning until 9:45 a.m. tomorrow.

[Career Prole]

46. "Fortunate our mole, the senator from connecticut, has joined us"

He hasn't joined you yet, Warner...that's why we're mad!

[many a good man]

41. Howard Dean needs to kick his ass

[fujiyama]

42. Words cannot express my disgust

whhen I see that photo.

:puke:

What scum...I wonder what happened to the Lieberman defenders.

[Generator]

47. Is anyone surprised? He's a true believer in the neo-con deal

And he always was and always will be. This may be worse (yeah..actually loads worse) than>insert your least favorite compromised doing it to get elected> Dem. At least they EVENTUALLY at least pretend to care about their base and get with the team. Lieberman will always be on the other team on this issue.

[IndianaGreen]

48. Bush kissed Lieberman on the cheek during last years SOTU speech

Holy Joe might as well been kissed by bin Laden for Bush and bin Laden are terrorists that delight in butchering innocent men, women, and children.

[mmonk]

51. He needs to be thrown out with

the neocons if possible. Lying a nation into war cannot stand. Trying to conquer the middle east over the next 30 years can't be allowed to happen. It will break us. Any member of this country's government that wants to continue perpetuating lies needs to GO, whether they are republican or any lapdog traitor democrats. Sorry, but I won't sell my soul for a victory with ANY pro war pro lying democrat as my nominee for such a "victory" will be hollow.

[leesa]

52. Lieberman works for Israel first. I wish Israel could be free of the

fascists controlling it.

[wisteria]

53. Lieberman, so out of touch and misguided. n/t

[flpoljunkie]

59. NYT writes entire story on Levin/Warner amendments w/o mentioning

Lieberman is voting for the Warner/Frist amendment, only that he saw the proposal as a "potential turning point."

http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/15/politics/15cong.html?ei=5094&en=1b0f7720627f5fd3&hp=&ex=1132117200&partner=homepage&pagewanted=print

Democrats said the plan represented a shift in Republican sentiment on Iraq and was an acknowledgment of growing public unrest with the course of the war and the administration's frequent call for patience. "I think it signals the fact that the American people are demanding change, and the Republicans see that that's something that they have to follow," said Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic leader.

Mr. Frist said an important reason for the Republican proposal was to offer an alternative to the Democratic call for a withdrawal timetable. "The real objective was to get out of this timeline of cutting and running that the Democrats have in their amendment," he said.

Mr. Warner said he decided to take the Democratic proposal and edit it to his satisfaction in an effort to find common ground between the parties on the issue.

Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, Democrat of Connecticut, said he saw the proposal as a potential "turning point" in Congressional deliberation over Iraq and related issues.

[Mass]

60. The huge difference is that the Republicans refused to ask Bush

to say that the occupation was not PERMANENT, but rather used the vague, Bushlike terms "NO LONGER THAN NEEDED".

But you cant really ask the NYTimes to report accurately on that.
