 Lieberman Seeks to Exploit Terror News for Political GainPosted on Aug 10, 2006Sen. Joe Lieberman seized upon news of the foiled British plane bombers to say that a victory for his Democratic rival, Ned Lamont, in November would constitute a victory for the terrorists. You know, when John at AMERICAblog asked who was going to be the first one to exploit this situation for political gain, he thought it would at least be a Republican….

VP Cheney has echoed Joementum’s conflation of the Lamont win with a strengthening of Islamist power. Well, he’s gotta blame someone beside himself. Something tells me that we gays will be shouldering our share of the blame some time soon.

I am tried of playing the scare game and beside I don’t have enough freedoms to play another round. I know why don’t we play reality. Then we will see what the real terrorist stole from us and maybe regain our civil liberties. Some tell Joe we don’t want to play any more.

Lieberman, like the GOP, is despicable in suggesting that vote for Lemont was vote for terrorism. This man does not have any character. As far as I am concerned, he can join other scam artists in the GOP.

I guess Lieberman is too stupid and blinded by sore loser rage to understand that we’ve already lost Iraq along with our credibility in Lebanon. Anyone in the Muslim world would have to be a total moron to believe anything America says….we’re proven beyond a reasonable doubt hypocrites. Why should another plot come as a surprise to anyone? And why does being opposed to a war that’s been a total moral, political and economic failure make one unpatriotic?

Lieberman thinks:
“Gee, only 30% of American adults can say what year 9/11 happened. So…, if peopkle are THAT stupid, chances are there are plenty of voters who are stupid enough to look at this new terrorism plot report and think, “Gee, now I realize the Iraq war was a great idea after all! I’d better vote for Lieberman!’...”

Sen. Joe is a de facto Republican. He abandoned the Democratic party Tuesday night.

Another RepubliCrat campaign strategy. My feelings toward Lieberman are quickly aligning with those feelings I have for Ann Coulter.

“Sounds like a sore loser to me. And the words also sound like that of the same speech writer for Dubya!”
