Lieberman To Introduce Resolution Praising Success Of Surge ‘Against Enemies Who Attacked America'

[kpete]

LIEBERMAN: That’s why Senator Graham and I are introducing a resolution recognizing the strategic success that the surge has achieved in a central front — the central front of the war on terror against the enemies who attacked America on 9/11/01, and expressing our thanks to our troops who’ve made that success possible.

1. Resolve this bitch

For Christ's sake liberbman and Graham, you motherfuckers are incredibly tiring.

[Virginia Dare]

25. Get 'em BOSS!

:kick:

[NRaleighLiberal]

2. So, he has sunk to brazen lies and distortion! Are they that stupid?

True bizarro world - that which is false is now true. Saddam and Iraqis now having attacked us on 911. This is just so unbelieveably ridiculous and wrong that there are no words to say.

[Disturbed]

9. These Assholes are repugnant. Will anyone in Congress

point that out? :grr:

[Va Lefty]

10. Holy Joe was never one to let the facts get in the way

of his shameless posturing.


Hey, Joe

Liar-man: living up to his name.

[BrklynLiberal]

5. It would be great if he was totally ignored.

[barbtries]

46. kinda like dennis kucinich is ignored

when he introduces something really important. this bushworld, this oppositeworld, is giving me a headache. :cry:

[notadmblnd]

6. what a repuke ass kisser

so if he passes this resolution, that will make it so? It will no longer just be McLames opinion.

[Fridays Child]

7. He needs to be slapped down by the Dems for such overtly political posturing at the expense of our t

[The Stranger]

8. What amazes me are the "Progressives" who viciously attack Nader when this POS would have been VP.

Unfuckingbelievable.

[truebrit71]

14. Nader? As in "Gore and Bush are them same" Nader?

...THAT is why that self-important douchebag was attacked, it had bugger all to do with LIEberman...

[The Stranger]

20. Nader as in "once you elect the corporate democrats, they will act like Republicans" Nader.

Your pathetic ad hominem "douchebag" proves my point.

Thanks nevertheless.

[truebrit71]

23. So Al Gore would have acted EXACTLY the same way Bush has...??

Is that your contention?

Wow. Just, WOW...

[The Stranger]

24. Go back and check who the thread is about.

And recall that this war-mongering, hate-filled piece of shit actually stands next to people like John Hagee. And then recall that he actually wants to speak at the Republican National Convention for the nomination of their candidate to the presidency.

You still with us?

Then imagine this person as the Vice President, a hair's breadth away from the Presidency, and regularly calling for more and more war, intentionally lying about Iraq and trying to confuse it with the September 11 attacks, and you will begin to see that he is not that much different ideologically from Dick Cheney.

Wow. Just, WOW.

[Virginia Dare]

31. Once he showed his true colors..

the Democrats could have dispatched of him forthwith and we'd be rid of him. We don't have the luxury now.

[truebrit71]

33. Go back and read the thread I was replying to...

The one where progressives were being excoriated for attacking Nader.

If you recall, Nader said that there was no difference between either of the candidates in Bush v Gore.

You still with me?

Progressives attacked Nader because he is a self-important arsehole...

Wow, just WOW indeed....:eyes:

[The Stranger]

34. Your pathetic ad hominem attacks on a true Progressive only proves my point.

And Nader was right about electing corporate Democrats who become Republicans, even standing in the way of impeachment. Nader has proven himself over decades as a true Progressive.

Lieberman has turned against his party and called for more and more blood to be spilled, stood with hate-filled bigots and the party of war and hate.

Lieberman is the one who deserves excoriation -- not Ralph Nader.

[truebrit71]

36. So you agree with Nader that there is NO difference between Gore and Bush...??

...I think you are on the wrong board...

[The Stranger]

52. Nice try. Not only is that a pathetic little strawman, but the bit about the "wrong board."

If you post here, you should know better than that. That shit doesn't fly here.

[Virginia Dare]

29. Sorry, I still think it would have been a vastly better scenario..

than 8 years of bushco. Any "progressive" who thinks otherwise is delusional.

[lazyriver]

47. I agree. Gore could have chosen Charlie Manson as veep and

things would still have been vastly better than the reign of terror under which we have struggled to survive for these last eight miserable years.

[Virginia Dare]

51. As much of a POS as Lieberman is..

I'd gladly take him over Cheney any day of the week. Eight years of Gore and Lieberman as opposed to Bush/Cheney? I don't even have to think about that one.

[LeftishBrit]

50. You mean it's better to have Cheney?

[proud patriot]

11. can the Dems just censure him ?

[Virginia Dare]

26. He's not officially a Dem, so can they?...

he considers himself an "Independent Democrat" which I guess means he's a republican but too pu**y to say so.

[KansDem]

12. So, we had a surge going on in...Saudi Arabia?

Against Enemies Who Attacked America

...or are the Saudis consider "friends" who attacked America?

I don't know...Help me out! I'm confused!

[VOX]

13. Does Joe-mentum think there's a surge in Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Lebanon or Egypt?

Just saying, since that's where the "enemies who attacked America" hailed from.

Joe needs a map. And a brain. And an "R" after his name.

[whatchamacallit]

15. Hey dickhead, stop wasting time on stupid shit and do the people's business

This is not what we pay you for, pant-nugget.

[bluestateguy]

16. Uh huh

Will this come before or after the resolution declaring this week "National Give All the Children Lolipops Week"?

Stop wasting our time.

[zbdent]

17. Hey Joe, don't forget the provision which also praises

the people paying the bribes for "not killing" others ...

[DailyGrind51]

18. So, Joe is taking Bin Laden's word that Iraq is "the central front"?

He obviously never read "Brer Rabbit and the Briar Patch".

Joe, then why is Bin Laden hiding in Pakistan?

[jimshoes]

19. That's just wrong on all levels

no doubt it will breeze right through the Senate though. I can't stand it but it will.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

21. Joementum isn't even a douchebag anymore

he's a f@#$ing ENEMA bag. :mad: :puke: :wtf: :banghead:

[Solly Mack]

22. Because if the resolution passes, then no one can say the surge didn't work

and the lie is cemented in Congressional record

If it doesn't pass, then it will be used to attack those who refused to pander to ignorance by framing a no vote as not supporting the troops

A person would have to be incredibly weak-minded to let Lieberman punk them this way

[Virginia Dare]

28. That's exactly what they're trying to do..

they're trying to get everybody on voting record as to whether "the surge" worked. They'll bring all sorts of "evidence" out attesting to the "fact" that it did, then they will blast the airwaves with it. They're already in the first phases of the plan.

While they blather on ad nauseum about how deaths in Iraq have gone down, they always leave out two teeny tiny little points of information. The deaths in Afghanistan have gone up, and Al Qaeda is as strong, if not stronger, now than they were when the war began. They also fail to mention that Iraq is no closer to a workable political solution than they were 6 months or a year ago.

[Virginia Dare]

27. Sometimes I wish they would bring the rack back into fashion...n/t

[marmar]

30. He's become a pathetic circus sideshow.....

:argh:

[KharmaTrain]

32. Gramps Stooges At Work...

They hope this becomes a "wife beating" ammendment so that Gramps can then go strutting around and keep ranting how "the surge is working". It's amazing how thin-skinned the GOOPers are when they're called out on this. Kudos to John Smolz of Vote Vets for shreading the right wing meatpuppet of Fleischer's 527 on Hairball last night.

Hopefully Senator Reid will either send this into committee hell or just let the clock run out and tell Goober and Joementum to go pound sand.

[helderheid]

35. Iraq attacked America?

Joe needs a vacation... come to think of it, Joe needs to retire.

[Beetwasher]

37. Finally! Something Useful!

Now all our problems are solved. Whew!

[samsingh]

38. he's a turd

[Canuckistanian]

39. It's a trap for Obama

They're going to wait and see how he votes on this.

[Maureen1322]

40. Oh, good another "Mission Accomplished" What an ass!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

41. Continuing on with the lies, I see. Perfect!

[Political Heretic]

42. He's not even a "moderate" - he's just a Zell Miller.

[The Backlash Cometh]

43. Well, look at the bright side. This is Lieberman's swan song,

[The Backlash Cometh]

44. Well, look at the bright side. This is Lieberman's swan song.

[barbtries]

45. don't they have anything better to do?!

a "success" within the biggest failure of an administration that has failed in just about every conceivable way. this reminds me in a way of the policemen who were given valor medals after they broke into the wrong home and took fire from the petrified owner.

[sakabatou]

48. Kick him out Dems! KICK HIM OUT!

[LeftishBrit]

49. Oh. so when did they attack Bin Laden then?

Lieberman is nuts!!!
