Graham: ‘Joe Lieberman is a national treasure.’»


During a recent interview, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called Sens. John McCain (R-AZ) and Joe Lieberman (I-CT) “something special,” recounting their recent trip abroad. He also claimed that people around the world view McCain as a “reassuring” presence, but later admitted that no one had a “McCain sticker” on their desk:

GRAHAM: Senator Lieberman, I think, is a national treasure, because no matter how you feel about his politics, he was willing to risk everything, politically, for a cause he believed in. But to see the interaction between these two guys and world leaders was something special. <…>

I think John McCain will be a reassuring presence to the world. … It really was a smile on people’s faces, knowing that if this guy got to be president, I think we could do business with him. … I think he’s a reassuring presence. Doesn’t mean that they prefer John over Obama or Senator Clinton, but there’s a level of comfort there. <…>

Q: But some probably do prefer him, don’t they?

GRAHAM: Oh, I would think, but no one told us. No one had a McCain sticker on their desk.

4. "GRAHAM: Senator Lieberman, I think, is a national treasure" Seems appropriate...

that we should bury him then as I see it.

Edited to say:

Oh, and lets include both McCain and Graham as well since we are doing it.

6. I'm calling his office to ask why he opposed a national treasure's election to the Vice-Presidency

in 2000.

7. Excellent
I'm all for locking him in a museum, behind bulletproof glass, under 24-hour guard.

15. Sort of like a vision of Jesus burnt onto toast
or a vision of Mary in a puddle of water and oil. That kind of national treasure.

19. Threesome............
I wonder what's the story with this threesome?

They've been hanging around as a threesome for quite some time.
The recent Iraqi trip is just the most recent....with Graham off
to the left of McCain, LIEberman on the right, nodding their silly 'heads in agreement .........At least when they weren't trying to keep a straight face as McCain flubbed & 'Dubbed'.
