Lieberman Praises McCain, Knocks Obama

[causeway_p]

Ah so the republicans have given the limelight to an Israel firster today and then tomorrow they''ll have an alska firster (Wailin Qyaylin) and on Thursday we''ll have a vietnam firster - marvellous

BTW what did the drug addict Cindy say besides asking for an other few pounds of heroin and cocaine ???

[jmurrieta1]

Not too surprising. The theme of the Republican convention this year is "George Who? Dik Who?"

It''s understandable the Repubs would like us all to forget the appallingly incompetent job they''ve done for the last 8 years.

Because the Neocons are terrified they won''t be able to siphon taxpayer money to billionaires and international corporate bosses.

Just remember: No Repugs, No Bushit.

It''s that simple.

Anyone of the Mormon faith thinking of voting for McCain should consider that Mitt Romney, clearly the most outstandingly qualified candidate for VP, was passed over because some extremist evangelical Protestant cults think that Romney is Satan''s spawn because of the religion Romney practices.

[BlueInWI]

Cool!! No better representative of the Republican Party than Holy Joe :-)

[rickstas]

LOL, Voltaire777!!!!

[kansas1946]

Can''t the Republican''s find any of their own to deliver key-note speeches at their conventions. Didn''t they have a Democrat four years ago as their key-note speaker? What was that guys name. Sounded really nutty. I can''t remember.

[CBSTV]

Why doesn''t Senator Lieberman just make it official and say he is a Republican? And to think he was Al Gore''s running mate ...

[jmurrieta1]

"In his sermons, Pastor Kalnins has also expressed beliefs that, while not directly political, lie outside of mainstream Christian thought.
He preaches repeatedly about the "end times" or "last days," an apocalyptic prophesy held by a small but vocal group of Christian leaders. During his appearance with Palin in June, he declared, "I believe Alaska is one of the refuge states in the last days, and hundreds of thousands of people are going to come to the state to seek refuge and the church has to be ready to minister to them."


This is a scary mix. People who want to bring about the end of the world because they think they''re going to be saved by ships of angels and carried away to heaven joining forces with warmongers and belligerants who favor war for their own economic advancement.

Get this: a nuclear exchange with the Russians won''t bring any angels down to take any Holy Rollers or Speakers in Tongues away to Heaven.

It would only bring about hundreds of millions of people dead and a ruined planet.

Time to take our country back from these nutcases.

[mainedoggie]

Oh for crying out loud Lieberman, would you just join this pathetic party of crooks, criminal, liars and get it over with Pleeeze!

[hazelknows]

those who make $603,403.00 and higher a year will be taxed by Obama''s plan, but according to McBush those who make more than 5 million (thats the line between middle class and rich in his lonely old mind) won''t be affected, as they get the tax break for the rich.

Israel First Traitor Leiberman is the perfece choice to head the Republicon Fascist parties charade of hate, racism, lies, cronyism, complete incompetence, absolute hypocrisy. McSame will be the first RNC Dunce Cap to come out of their fascist parties convention worse off than he was than before he went in.. Keep it up, the RNC party of NO VALUES except GREED!

[jeffstersf]

Would you GOP freaks STOP IT with Obama allegedly being a Muslim? dukakislives GET A LIFE and STOP with the lies. Oh, wait, you''re a republican, so lying is your way of life.

[jeffstersf]

dukakislives, you''re quoting the Teheran Times while claiming Obama is a Muslim? That makes you a bona fide MORON.

[shouterguy]

Interesting. When a traitorous former Democrat gets top billing over a sitting Republican president at the GOP convention.

I read where almost everyone at the Convention adores Bush. So why isn''t he speaking there in person? Think it''s because ALL his supporters are there? Period?

And Cheney -- can you say Eastern Lower Slobovia, anyone?

Sure you can.

[rave_on3]

Where do you get this ***?

Oh by the way, Sarah Palin''s youngest daughter is actually her oldest daughter''s first child. Palin just adopted her to cover up the scandal.

Sounds ridiculous, doesn''t it?

[downtowner97]

With approval ratings in the 30 percent range, Bush was given eight or nine minutes to speak, and convention planners made it clear there was no need for him to leave the White House to do so.

Bush barely knows what the White House looks like. I wonder what the special occasion is that he''s there now.

A great way for the Repukons to show us they can provoke a catastrophe and not being able to handle it after... unfortunately there is no comment section within the article page.

Lieberman is an extremely intelligent person who couldn''''t put up with the Democratic lies and flip-flops that were harming America.

He''s a lying doofus.

He''s a lying, traitorous doofus who places the alleged "security" of Israel before the security of the United States.

He''s in his element.

Enjoy.

Run John run!! Away from your President and away from your party! ROFLMAO This man is going to do everything he can to convince America that he isn''t Bush yet he has the SAME policies of Bush. Wonder how he pulls that one off! ROFLMAO

DUEL PASSPORT HOLDING AIPAC MEMBER JOE!

NO WHERE TO GO BECAUSE HE WANTS TO KEEP TROOPS IN THE MIDDLE EAST OUTSIDE AMERICAN NATIONAL SECURITY INTEREST!

HE NEEDS TO GO BACK TO THE COUNTRY WHOS INTEREST HE REPRESENTS! IT SURE IS NOT AMERICA!

THAT IS WHY HE FITS IN WITH THE REPUBLICANS THEY DO NOT REPRESENT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE EITHER!

[mcvet-1]

You''''re an example of why Lieberman turned against the Democratic Party: a wacked-out, illogical, hate-filled nut case. Lieberman is an extremely intelligent person who couldn''''t put up with the Democratic lies and flip-flops that were harming America.

No you poor 6th grade drop out, the PARTY did NOT Elect him in the primaries. GOOD GRIEF but I do wish you poor uneducated knuckle draggers would try to pick up at LEAST a Little education before you embarrass yourselves. Now lets stand.. let the Fuhrer know YOU support him even though they are HIDING him! Shout it out!! SIEG HEIL McBUSH!! ROFLMAO

[allurfears]

McCain''s TEMPERAMENT

"F*ck you! I know more about this than anyone else in the room." McCain to Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), during a testy exchange about immigration legislation

"No, I''m calling you a f*cking jerk." McCain to fellow Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, when Grassley asked "Are you calling me stupid?"

"Only an as*hole would put together a budget like this ... I wouldn''t call you an as*hole unless you really were an as*hole." McCain to Budget Committee Chairman and fellow Repulican Sen. Pete Domenici, during a Senate budget hearing.

"At least I don''t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you c*nt." McCain to his wife, Cindy, after she playfully twirled his hair and said "You''re getting a little thin up there," as reported in the book The Real McCain by Cliff Schecter.

McCain has a SERIOUS TEMPERAMENT PROBLEM. His impulsive and irresponsible selection of Palin as V.P. is just the latest example.

Americans do not need McCain with his "finger on the button", or starting new wars with Russia or Iran.

McCAIN IS OUT OF CONTROL.

Why does Lieberman support McCrazy? He is upset because he lost the Dem primary to someone with 10 times more integrity than he has. So he abandons all of his principles (except perpetual war) and jumps to the other side.

Lieberman is an opportunistic traitor to his own principles

(thanks Zerato for quotes)

Posted by dukakislives at 06:45 PM : Sep 02, 2008

Both of which had minimal influence over his formal upbringing. And yes, he went to school in Malaysia, a majority muslim country but the school was secular.

And by the way, what''s a muslim doing practicing in a christian church?

You''''re mistaken.

My bird would get priority over Bush. But, better yet, to lump Bush and Lieberman together is great. They both are at the bottom of my scum meter so they deserve each other. Now, if O''Reilly, Cheney, emaciated blonde she devil, and old cigar face were speaking, the world would see true Repubs at their finest!!!

MY Concern is the SAME as the vast majority of other American''s out here. We KNOW the Economic Plan used by Clinton and now Obama Works, we watched it for 8 years. What I want to know is Why is McSame going with the Bush Economic Plan which has NEVER, NOT ONCE, worked. To be honest with you, I have to agree with Obama, you folks just don''t get it!! I mean you talk about all these non issues and NEVER address the WORST ECONOMY in MY lifetime. Why?

You gotta read this. Crispy Article. John McCane''s lack of Judgement is evident. He''s surrounded with amateur politico wannabes, incompetent prospectors.

Public place is not the ideal place to vet a VP potential. Great move McCane... See you in 12 years from now (if you survived this grave political error!)

The Koran states that a son born to a Muslim is automatically a Muslim. Unless Obama has formally renounced Islam and declared himself a non-Muslim, he is still a Muslim. As far as I know, he has never done this.

Do you really want to revert to semantics to propogate your hate mongering? I''d think practicing his chosen religion in a christian church, openly talking about his christian faith, raising his children as christians, etc. would be enough to inform reasonable people he''s not a muslim.

Emphasis on reasonable.

Well, duh. I think the Republicans would rather give the spotlight to anyone other than Bush. In fact, they probably wish Bush would just disappear into the darkness from whence he came. I am no Lieberman fan, but I would take him ANY day over Bush.

Lieberman is neither a democrat nor independent, considering his voting record and vocal support of the Iraq fiasco.

IMO, Lieberman%u2019s loyalty lies strictly with Israel, NOT America.

I wonder how those Connecticut democrats and true independents that voted for Lieberman over Lamont in 2006, feel about that now?

I hope this will be his last term in public office, period.

[im4honesty]

''Jewish Joe'' was tossed out by the democratic party in his home district. The republicans came to his rescue and elected him as an independent. He is now paying them for the favor. His career is almost over. What a pathetic loser.

MCVET: Convince me that the Clinton plan will be what will be implemented and I''''ll vote Obama... So far, what I see and have read is that the party is being taken far to the left... Tax the rich, nationalize energy resources, etc.

Right. Perfect choice. They are both neo-cons who put the interests of Israel and their Big Oil handlers before those of the United States. They put these interests even before the interests of Party, giving an ironic twist to the term %u201CCrossing the aisle.%u201D

There are three reasons that Lieberman has broken with the Democrats and attached himself to McCain like a cancerous lesion: Israel. Israel. Israel.

The problem is, Israel is not (officially) a US state.

Doesn%u2019t seem to bother Joe. Or John.

By this logic, McCain is a Vietcong, he spent several years with them and actually made political propaganda films for them, which, by the way, probably contributed to the killing of many American soldiers.

I would drop my questioning of Obama''''s ties to Islam if I had heard a formal and clear statement from him on the issue. I have not.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Posted by whatwhy001 at 07:09 PM : Sep 02, 2008

I don''t believe you would. I''ve seen in print at least a dozen times stating ''I''m not a muslim''.

Again, we''re back to semantics as you probably want to actually hear those words pour from his lips. I''m afraid it won''t happen because 1. You are probably wont to averting your attention away from the issue if the possibility of your conceptions are about to be proved false and 2. The grounds been covered ad nauseum and to most resonable people it''s no longer an issue.

Emphasis on reasonable.

And I have problems with anyone pointing fingers at any religion without taking account for the nuutbags in theirs.

[shouterguy]

An ATHIEST!! That''''s even worse than a Muslim!
-- Posted by whatwhy001

Sayeth whom? Thou?

Big deal.

Obama is a Christian and you know it. If you%u2019re a Christian, you need to repent of your lying ways and start telling the truth. Get right or get left, right?

McCain is the closest thing we have to a secularist in this race. Isn%u2019t that like an atheist?

Will he go to hell?

And how will this help our economy or give us better education?

My friend?
