Did Joe Liberman go to Iraq?

[FreedomAngel82]

I'm listening to the Majority Report and was thinking about Liberman coming out recently on the side of the Bush gang. Did he really go to Iraq? Anyone know? I think he's been offered some sort of deal with the neocons.

1. I think his plane got diverted to fantasy-land, since he seems to be

talking about a country no one would ever mistake for Iraq.

2. Where he visited appears questionable according to Time's Michael Ware.

"Time magazine Baghdad bureau chief Michael Ware on Morning Sedition this morning:


"I and some other journalists had lunch with Senator Joe Lieberman the other day and we listened to him talking about Iraq. Either Senator Lieberman is so divorced from reality that he's completely lost the plot or he knows he's spinning a line. Because one of my colleagues turned to me in the middle of this lunch and said he's not talking about any country I've ever been to and yet he was talking about Iraq, the very country where we were sitting."

3. yes, and he's the only one to come out with an optimistic outlook

4. That ass did go to Iraq and ate real turkey meals in 'Green Zones' while..

real soldiers were out soldiering and eating turkey roll meals in some god forsaken mess tent.

5. If he went... I hope he stays.

6. he did not go to Viet Nam when it was his turn to put his

ass on the line and fight for his country.....just another chickenhawk.

7. He was in a HIGHLY SECURE Military base at Thanksgiving

and ate turkey with the troops so I guess that qualifies as being there. I wish they had ploped his ass on Haifa street in Baghdad with nothing but his mouth for protection.

8. Oh of course

Did he talk to any soliders or just loyalists? I remember when Bush did that fake turkey thing they had soliders fill out a form that asked their political parties and if they had ever been a democrat etc. and only surrounded Bush with friendly soliders. So did they do that with Liberman? I think he's more-so just plain lying out of his ass and was offered a job or something from the neocons.

9. They're talking about Liberman on Majority Report now

Plainly saying he's a huge fan of the whole Israel thing and Sam says he thinks he's trying to get a job with the neocons and run in 2008 with a John McCain type if not McCain. Definitley check out the third segment about Liberman. They aren't afraid of losing Liberman but whether he was taking some Jewish democratic voters with him if he left the party and that's why they're afraid to get rid of him. Sam says it should be obvious he doesn't care because he aligns himself with Christian neocons. I also think that the neocons use Liberman to show their so-called bipartisan work and how they're friendly to other people of faith.
