Are you stupid or are you trying to manipulate opinion.
Your spin that Joe Lieberman is a member of the Democratic Party is pathetic.
Joe Lieberman is an INDEPENDENT not a Democrat.
Lieberman was defeated in the Democratic Primary (because he was too much like a Republican).
"In 2006, Senator Lieberman was elected to a fourth term as an Independent".

Lest we also forget that Joe Lieberman was a DEMOCRAT candidate for Vice-President and President. But, you Democrats, of course, would like to sweep that bit of history under the rug. Can't handle it when one of your own "sees the light" and defects, can you?

"Lieberman stumping in FL"
Lieberman IS a stump. But hey, someone has to change Johnny's Attends and remind him what his name is.

America is not Joe Lieberman's first priority. When you consider that the only thing tying him to the Republicans is his war stance, and he considers the United States' fortunes second in that regard, then what he is becomes quite clear.

I have a very hard time accepting "political lizards" be it locally, (Rouson) or nationally, (Lieberman), you know the ones that change parties to suit thier political ambition!
Eight years ago, Lieberman had some not so nice things to say about then, Governor, now, President Bush or the State of Florida for all that matters, after that nighmarish 2000 Presidential election. Yet, leading up to the State of the Union speech, 2007 he was cozily embracing President Bush!
I like some others, see this as a "political lizard"! Did I mention that I am a Republican, well I am! I would have Hillary, stomp for Senator McCain than Loserman, oops, my bad Lieberman!

I see the Anarchist Accountant is now on this thread spreading some more of his hate-filled anti Republican garbage. Go back to your bean counting, loser!!!

I am proud to be a Jewish Floridian and I believe that supporting McMoreWar goes directly against the core Jewish value of "tikkun olam" or heal the world. Soon-to-be-President Barack Obama without a doubt has this Jewish American's vote.
GOBAMA!!!

Cutler! Don't you see the contradiction in your post, or is it convenient to only say you're a Jew while trying to make a point? "McMoreWar"? "Tikkun Olam"? What kind of wound are you healing by throwing names? Go back to eating your cheese smothered beef taco!

Not even "McLieberman" can save the GOP now! Looks like Dumbya and PIG Cheney and the rest of the RePIGLican Thugs will be McOut on their collective McButts come January. Oink. PIGS. REPIGLICANS. Oink. McPig. McSame. McShame. McTerrible. McOink. PIGS!

Cutler doesn't exist. Another pathetic attempt by the Obama Trolls to take us down the road to destruction.
Believe nothing that is posted on here by the Obama Toadies. They are an arrogant, pathetic, bunch of liars that make Bush look like the Pope!

who cares about this guy, lieberman is such a pathetic excuse for a human being i cannot imagine anyone wanting to be in his pressence or hear his opinion on anything...but then again fox news has viewers so what do I know
Posted by: | July 18, 2008 at 04:25 PM
lets face it, folks...were ISRAEL not involved, joie would as silent as a mouse!!
americas foreign policy decisions are not dependent on what is good for zionists, are they?
Posted by: | July 18, 2008 at 04:39 PM
can a candidate run on a platform that promises that by 6 p.m. on january 20, 2009, bush, cheney, rice, powell, rumsfeld, feith, wolfowitz, ashcroft, gonzalez and anyone else you can name will be in jail for treason and sedition?
THAT would be a SURE WINNER!!!!
Posted by: | July 18, 2008 at 04:42 PM
4:42, by that time all the letter O's will be removed from the whitehouse keyboards, so they won't be able to type the words "treason and sedition".

Obama = Bush = More of the same.
NADER = CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!!

You need to put the beer down as you must have the DT's and are hallucinating.
Trying to tie Obama, a Democrat, with Bush, a Republican, is pathetic.
Maybe when you stop hallucinating you will realize that it is McCain who is willingly touting the Bush/Cheney policies.
McCain/Bush/Cheney 2008...Not!
Posted by: | July 18, 2008 at 07:12 PM
I repeat:
Obama = Bush = More of the same.
NADER = CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!!
Obama is becoming a repub just like the rest of them!!!

4:39 -- Spot on. Joe's only interest is the safety of Israel. If he sacrifices America in the process, so be it.
Posted by: | July 18, 2008 at 08:59 PM
And Israel is also interested in the safety of the U.S. Piss off Israel like Obama and his advisers plan to and it puts the U.S. at risk. Very short-sighted and juvenile approach.

The McCain Toad at 9:20 has a carefully indexed book of Rove Talking Points to spin any possible response you could make. What he lacks are morals, decency, and a clear picture of the disaster his handlers have planned for our nation, should they ever succeed.

Obama is already a DISASTER! We'd be better off with the idiot boy Bush than Obama.
Vote for Ralph Nader. The candidate we can trust to change D.C.

Joe Lieberman? The Independent Senator from Israel? Hmmmm.
