Lieberman: Congress ’sniping’ at troops.

Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-CT) appearing on CNBC this afternoon expressed his opposition to an amendment sponsored by Sen. Jim Webb (D-VA), which would require troops to rest for as much or time as they are deployed. “Give the American soldiers a break,” Lieberman said. “It’s as if the American troops have the enemy on one side and Congress is sniping at their heels on the other side.” He added that Congress is advocating a “defeat, retreat strategy.” Watch it at link~

4. Sheeptramp: Lieberman ’sniping’ at Democracy

What a tool

[rubberducky]

5. And to think he was on the same ticket as Gore.

Makes me sick to my stomach to think we could have had that snake in the white house. Maybe Gore would have dumped him when his neo-con tendencies surfaced.

8. Gore is NOT the same person he was in 2000, and he is much wiser /nt

6. Yeah, nincompoop, rest is so harmful compared to real, live bombs and bullets.

Why don't you refresh yourself with a walk down a Fallujah street. Joe?

But if Joe wants to send his daughters to war so Jim's son can take a break, I'm all for it.

21. Okay, Serious Question...Does Anyone Else Think He's Just Batshit CRAZY?

I'm really wondering about this. The stuff he says...it's just JAW-DROPPING. I mean, he says stuff that even REPUBLICANS are smart enough not to say. And he's FOR anything that everyone else in the country HATES. I honestly think he's gone nuts.
