Lieberman: If I were the president I'd ask Rumsfeld to leave.

Is that "calling for Rumsfeld's resignation?" Hmm...

Edited to add that he just said this, on the radio, to Ed Schultz, upon being asked by Ed if he would call for Rumsfeld to resign.

7. What did we expect.
A statement of strength from Joe PencilDick?

I wonder if he was whining when he said it.

2. Ask him to leave? "Pretty please, Donnie?"
You don't ASK such an incompetent fool to go, YOU ORDER HIM.

9. It was hardly a forthright statement. And how cynical of Joe to think...
...that he could "unkiss the president," at this late date.

3. Why is he just now realizing the war's going badly?
He thought it was going great just a few weeks ago, why the sudden change? If anyone can convince me that this is a heartfelt change of mind and not just a cynical ploy for the primary I'll donate $100 to DU.

4. "And then I'd Hire Myself As As Sec. of Def."
"Did I mention I'll be looking for a new job in January? Hint, hint, wink nudge.."

Tranparent. Pathetic. Douche.

5. Calling Lieberman a weasel is animal cruelty
Don't malign the poor weasel. He's a shitstain that the good people of Connecticut will flush soon enough. Mixed metaphor, I know, but what can you do?

6. A situation LIEberman will never find himself in.
Edited on Fri Aug-04-06 03:38 PM by spanone
Too little too late, joe.

edit thought: I guess this means if Lieberman were president, He would have

Rumsfeld as his Defense Secretary????? That's how it reads to me.

15. Sorry Joey....
Edited on Fri Aug-04-06 02:53 PM by TwoSparkles
You can't kiss the pResident one day, and the next day try to
kiss up to the progressive wing of the party.

Stop, Joe...before you end up with a scorching case of mononucleosis.
