Lieberman Parrots Obama Hamas Smear

Election Central:

It was only a matter of time, really. If you ever doubted that Joe Lieberman would be using what's left of his "Independent Democrat" credentials to legitimize the GOP's bogus "Hamas endorsed Obama" attack, here he is on CNN doing just that...

When Wolf Blitzer pointed out that Obama also labels Hamas a terrorist organization, making his position the same as McCain's, Lieberman said, "that's true," adding that Obama "clearly doesn't support any of the values and goals of Hamas." Then, with depressing predictability, came the inevitable caveat.

Mr. Luttwak is Jewish like majority of Jewish Americans prospect of having Mr. Obama becoming next president of United States makes him insecure especially with the Israel policy. Frankly this is a genuine concern for all Jews around the world thinking that an American president that may have some sympathy for the Muslims will make the Jewish people out of balance no matter how many times Mr. Obama pledges his alliance to American protection of the state of Israel this insecurity will not go away. I do not think that Mr. Obama will get the Jewish vote and that will not cause him to get elected, but he will sure continue to get bad press.
After all NYT is published in NY and needs the Jewish support to continue publishing so it has to address this insecurity of majority of its customers. I think if Mr. Obama gets elected it will be a joy for all the Muslim no matter what his religion be on the contrary if he is to be beheaded this will be done by a fanatic Jew like what happened to Mr. Robin rather then a Muslims since like Mr. Luttwak they are more insecure about him then anybody else.

It never dawned on me before, but I wonder if Lieberman is being so stupid because Obama was once involved in the Muslim religion? And as we know, some Jewish people do not like Muslims. Just wondering if this is why he would be so stupid and vindictive.

[FreedomRider]

Lieberman speaks the truth and the comments made truly show how liberal liberals are. The truth is a slander when said about a liberal, but a lie said about a conservative is the truth. Fascism anyone?

[GBecker]

Lieberman is an idiot and somebody (Reid?) needs to stuff a rag in his ugly, hate-spewing, lying mouth!

[OnePartyEqualsTyranny]

Wow, liberals are liberal and good old Joe a conservative. Thanks for the Truth your learning.

[heal57]

Joe Lieberman was always the way he is; it's just that politicians hide things better than others. He has always been pro-Israel first, and a senator second. Muslims are not all the same just like Americans are not all the same, Christians are not all the same; and so it goes. I take Lieberman for the runt he is [just my humble opinion].

[eej]

loki you know better. WTF are you doing?

[DatelessNerd]

So, Bill Clinton, do you still think Joe Lieberman is "a good man, a good Democrat," and someone who'll "do Connecticut proud?"

And the next time you see Harry Reid, ask him why Senate Democrats gave Lieberman a standing ovation after he defeated their party's endorsed candidate.

Harry Reid should take away liebermans chairman ship from him also.

Ditto.

Lieberman should be required to be registered as an agent for israel.

[heal57]

Yesm that's exactly what he is; an agent for Israel. He's certainly not for the US.

[mamacat]

At this point, I would have to say that Lieberman just plain doesn't make any sense. I suppose, deep inside the cavernous construct that constitutes his consciousness, there is a little voice telling him where to go and when to do it. For all the rest of us, the question has to be, what happened to ye, Joe?

[eej]

Lieberman may be freaking out, realizing he is about to be left out in the cold.

[TMAN]

This Lieberman is precisely what has brought the world to where it is today. We can never solve anything with unprincipled people like this in our governments. They only know "down & dirty. Shills for other governments. Hell, shills for other party's, other agenda's. Back door deal makers, on the con, men like this have no ethics and no morality and they can't stand the light of truth.

[hopelessobama]

al gore's vp is standing tall, telling obama-cult the truth about their false prophet. sorry kids, but barry is not going to save the world. he is not in this for you. he is in this for one person: barack obama. he is perhaps the worst human being in history to ever run for office, and his continued campaign is a stain on america. america will never recover if it elects a phony chicago sell-out over a heroic veteran and champion of true change and reform. obama is bush on steroids, or is it just coke???

[wesinohio]

Why no hope? You haven't been listening or thinking. The grownups are coming on the scene now, jr. Wake up to a new world.

[heal57]

Joe Lieberman is a phony, like John McCain. Your 'veteran' served his country honorably but married into money so he could have a senatorial career and eventually the Presidency. Lieberman supports this man who is verbally abusive to his wife, flip flops on everything, DOES NOT SUPPORT THE VETERANS BILL, changed his mind about torture; yes, a POW from Viet Nam now says torture is okay. I think MCain doesn't remember half the stuff he's said cause of his age. He's angry, undisciplined, and the only thing worse than him is Joe [the elf] Lieberman.

hopeless,
You really chose a good name for yourself. You sound so bitter, and kind of pitiful.

[GBecker]

Hopeless and clueless!

[hopelessobama]

the retelling of facts is not a smear:

spokesma for hamas claims to want obama to win the presidency : FACT

you can squirm all you want, but the fact that terrorists show now hesitation in their choice for president should worry americans. barack's appeasement of iran, cuba, n. korea has lead these groups to believe obama is a pathetic weakling. unfortunately, they are right. obama is perhaps the most gutless, spineless human to ever run for office, he is the human embodiment of waving a white flag in surrender.

[suzyhein]

find out who said it. find the entire quote:
“We don’t mind–actually we like Mr. Obama. We hope he will (win) the election and I do believe he is like John Kennedy, great man with great principle, and he has a vision to change America to make it in a position to lead the world community but not with domination and arrogance,” Yousef said in response to a question about the group’s willingness to meet with either of the Democratic presidential candidates.

you idiot.

[heal57]

hopelessobama: You sound like a Nazi.

[jimme]

for someone who's never met him,probably never been in a room alone with a black person, you sure know alot about Barrack. To call him the worst in history without even knowing the guy shows you're a true repugnant,i'm sorry,republican. Quit talking out your rear,you sound moronic. How about georgies close friends(Saudis) in the middle east? Is that okay with you? Together they've ripped off this country and the world,but that's okay? I'm surprised you didn't use Barracks' middle name, like all of the other childish repubs. When he wins, you and all of your ilk can kindly leave this country. You can join bushco in Saudi Arabia and eat sand,if he's not on trial of course.

[debwarot]

I gotta wonder - do you really believe this nonsense or are you some sort of evil, but incompetent , troll? It doesn't really matter, just keep spewing out this garbage. Sure, some will listen and a few will even believe you, but most people will recognize you for what you are - a trash peddler!

[CaptainSunshine]

Idiot. We have to thank the good people of CT for this one!!

[eej]

Joe was counting on that permanent Republican majority thing when he turned traitor to the Democrats.

He doesn't look too happy.

[dotmafia]

On CNN’s American Morning earlier today, Kyra Phillips reported that during a recent trip to Baghdad “dozens of Iraqi soldiers and dozens of students at Baghdad university” told her that they “don’t want to see a Republican president.” “Out of every single one that I talked to, one person said they supported John McCain,” said Phillips.

Asked to respond, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT), who is an ardent supporter of McCain, dismissed what the Iraqis told Phillips as an “unscientific poll.”

Lieberman is a traitor to America and a complete idiot.

He wants Americans to not believe what people in Iraq say, but believe Hamas when they say they like Obama.

F**cking moron.

[heal57]

My husband is Jewish and supports Obama. We want a President who will be strong on defense, but fair on policy and willing to talk with our enemies. Our Veterans know who really supports them; Barack Obama, not John McCain.
I have no problem that Hamas, and others [[including various rebel groups] would welcome new leadership in the US that is not part of the bully cowboy style imperialism that we have become known for. Many good things will happen in the future because of this shift in US politics.

heal57, I could not agree with you more.

My father is Jewish and I was raised in the religion.

A Canadian for Obama 2008.

[CanuckforObama]

And the IRA probably favored Tony Blair back in '97 over John Major because he was someone they could work with and... wouldn't you know it...we now have peace in Northern Ireland.

And this cheerleader for the Iraq War, the greatest foreign policy catastrophe in U.S. history, is supposed to be taken seriously on foreign policy matters?

[debwarot]

An excellent comparison- thanks for posting it.

[nativeeyes]

This morons actually thinks people listen to him...


He's a non issues and licks Mccain's sack when his wife won't..

Mccain is going senile and taking reach arounds from Liberwoman....
