Lieberman Predicts Attack Will Come Early In Next Presidency

Lacking any cogent plan to solve America's problems or a platform of coherent policy proposals, the McCain campaign has got only a few stale acts in its repertoire. One is empty headed fear-mongering. That's the role that the GOP's aide-de-camp Joe Lieberman found himself playing on this week's Face The Nation, where he warned that al Qaeda would "test the new President early." What does that mean for Joe Lieberman? That means America needs John McCain, who will be "ready on day one" to continue the Bush administration's policies of appeasement that have allowed al Qaeda to regroup, flourish, and uhm . . . presumably plan this welcome-wagon act that Lieberman is predicting. Anyway, the joke will be on everybody else when George W. Bush crowns himself President-for-Life, thus foiling al-Qaeda's plans forever.

[WATCH.]

LIEBERMAN: We need a president who's ready to be Commander-in-Chief on day one. Senator McCain is - incidentally, Senator Clinton said that over and over again and she was right. She was ready to be president on day one. Why? Because our enemies will test the new president early. Remember that the truck bombing at the World Trade Center happened in the first year of the Clinton administration. 9/11 happened in the first year of the Bush administration. John McCain is ready to take the reins on January 20, 2009. He doesn't need any training.

Joe Lieberman is an evil little Keebler elf.

He's better off crawling back into that little hole in the tree he crawled out of.

[findingthetruth]

What TRAINING did Clinton have for the truck bombing at the World Trade Center in the first year of the Clinton administration?

What TRAINING did Bush have for the 9/11attack that happened in the first year of his administration?

Is LIEberman implying that because McCain was a POW, he is TRAINED for such responses? If that's the case ---- how did Clinton AND Bush COMMAND this country WITHOUT the same experiences as McCain?

Once again ----- the GOP is reaching.

WE DONT HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE TERRORISTS TO ATTACK US!! THE REPUBLICANS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB OF DESTROYING THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE!!!! THEY ARE DOING ALL THE WORK FOR THE TERRORISTS!!!

[GHENT007]

HEY JOE WHY DONT YOU JUST GO AWAY!!!! NOBODYS LISTENING TO TO YOUR WAR-MONGERING BULLSHIT WONT WORK THIS TIME JUST GO AWAY!!! THEY WILL VOTE YOUR SORRY ASS OUT NEXT TIME AROUND!!!!!

[Lolasmom]

Joe Lieberman is GARBAGE. He never was any good.
He needs to be sent home to rot with his lovely wife HADASSAH!

What a pathetic creature.

Hope CT will dump him next time around.

I suspect that the close ties to the Israeli lobby has Lieberman cranking for McCain. It's unfortunate for Lieberman to perceive Obama that he's against Israel. Another problem with Lieberman is that he's still holding strong resentment towards Obama in solidarity towards the Clinton Clan.

"Ready on day one"

That worked for Hillary?

Will all the War Mongers stand up???

Bush had british PM Blair as his own personal lapdog..NOw, it is clear that a President McBush already has his own lapdog in Joe Liebeman....Is there any sight that is more revolting than a Joe Lieberman -cum- lapdog to McCain where the tail is wagging the dog,....pardon me while I go and puke...

[JAMES GORMAN]

WHAT IN THE NAME OF GOD,OR YAHWEH, IS THE BASIS for Lieberman claiming that a terrorist
attack will happen in the early days of McCain-hood America?? It is a pure biased assumption so that we will be stampeded into choosing the man who will have us bombing Iran in the first six months.
That will gaurantee a terrorist attack, and we will be dragged into a major conflict at the bidding of
Israel---and with their usual "maneuvering" to make sure our blood and our treasure pays.
Israel is the tail wagging the dog, and this old dog is tired of it at age 70. If their lobby wants us in Iran
with McCain, then Israel should send in the first wave of young men as troops (and I did say men)--and
some bucks should come back across the Atllantic that one time toward us from Israel. God knows
well enought has passsed that other way over the last thirty years, and I am not so sure God blesses
everything in Hebre. James Gorman

Funny how all the 911 conspiracy theorist were made to look like idiots when claims were made of knowledge before the fact. But, in recent weeks with some of the comments regarding another terrorist attack, and this remark by Lieberman stating there will be another attack, really makes you wonder. I pray to God, that if any of these animals had knowledge before hand of Sept. 11, and of any other strike, even in the future, that they are exposed, humiliated, and prosecuted severely.

[dartagnan]

Let's see if I can follow Joe LIEberman's "logic": The present Republican administration has done such a bang-up job of fighting terrorism since 9/11 that we can expect another 9/11 probably in 2009. THEREFORE we should elect another Republican president who will continue that same highly effective anti-terrorism strategy.

Uh, okay, Joe. Whatever.

[blaqntelligence]

You know, when put like that.......It makes the republicans look even more foolish. If that's possible.

[Keith52]

He's getting old don't cha know.... all the old farts are convening in the same room near the Capital building toilets in case, you know, they have to run out of the room.... It's the pissing cabal.

[takeamericanback08]

News flash...The Bush Administration has attack Americans over the last eight years.

[JackLivigni]

Lieb's days are numbered. When Democrats gain a greater majority in the Senate, and his vote doesn't make's little difference, he will get the door slammed in his face, and rightly so! Using fear tactics to manipulate the American people... no character whatsoever.

What does LIE-berman know that we do not about the next president being attacked if we do not ELECT McCain, what inside information does he have. This is not idle talk to scare We the People he has inside information. The Corporat Controled Media with LIE-berman all the way on this threat just watch CNN and there talking heads. Why has no one ask LIE-berman where he gets this info?
