Lieberman should move to Israel and have his wishes come true; becoming president/premier, and kill Arafat.

6. Could it be that he's Jewish and we are killing Arabs? |
|
I know that's a harsh accusation but why would any Democrat be in favor of this crap and go to the lengths he does to defend it? This is a terrible thing to say but what else can it be? Does he have stock in Halliburton? Is he a secret PNACer? Is he just insane?

12. The third rail of American Politics |
|
Your header is correct; this is precisely his issue, and were he to have the parallels with the holocaust drawn (they're inferior creatures, etc.) he would scream bloody murder.
This is all causing a terrible rift in the American Jewish community: many are heartbroken by the level of Israel's intransigence and the irrational black and white thinking.
It is sobering to note how many left-leaning Jewish Legislators had no trouble going after Saddam; here in L.A., we have the following Congresspeople who voted for the resolution: Harman, Schiff, Berman and even Henry Waxman.
It is reckless and doomed for Jews to stake the future of their culture on the ability to subjugate an overwhelming majority. Regardlessness of the morality of it, IT SIMPLY WON'T WORK.
Lieberman is a fundamentalist, and as such does not see nuance. He is more dangerous to his own people than most Muslims are, and it's sad to see.
Of all the major religions, I like Judaism the most (admittedly, I don't like religion much at all) and would hate to see it endure another disaster, but thinking like his will hasten just such an event. Lieberman isn't a Republican; yes, he's in the pocket of the accounting industry and an enabler for other industries, but he has a good environmental record, workers' rights record and other philosophical stances that put him outside of the conservative camp. His problem is that he's a social conservative, wants to cram religion down all of our throats, and has a selfish hatred of Arabs that gives him some form of self-appointed right to do with them as he pleases.
Not only can things like this be said, they MUST be.

'Lieberman is making one of two points. Either he's just saying "USA! Not quite as bad as the worst people on the planet!" Or, he's saying "I just want to point out that some brown people unconnected to this event did some bad things!"'
Yup.

The fact that Gore picked him really makes me question his judgement.
Was Gore high?

11. Glad to see he's embraced the RNC talking points |
|
I've heard the same thing from right wing dittoheads constantly for the past two days.
The other one you'll be hearing more of: Since Kerry admitted to all those atrocities during 'Nam, shouldn't he be judged similarly to the MP's at Abu Ghraib?
My answer to them: Does this mean you now believe what Kerry said back in '71? Can't have it both ways.

13. I thank God he didn't get the nomination |
|
I would have had to switch to an Independent and vote 3rd party. There is absolutely no way I could ever vote for that POS.
The moment someone like him becomes the face of the Democratic party, it's dead as far as I'm concerned. I'm very glad that didn't happen this time around.
