Lieberman Continues to Impress
Joe, get it over with and switch parties already!:
Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman, increasingly isolated in his own Democratic party because of his strong support for the Iraq war, today called on the White House and congressional leaders to form a special “war cabinet” to provide advice and direction for the war effort.
The Connecticut Democrat’s “Bipartisan Victory in Iraq Administrative Group,” designed to take some of the political edge off the war debate, would be modeled after similar panels during the Vietnam War and World War II.
Lieberman, whom the Bush administration has praised repeatedly for his war stance, defended the president. “It’s time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge he’ll be commander-in-chief for three more years,” the senator said. “We undermine the president’s credibility at our nation’s peril.”
You know, it’s good to see many Democrats of high visibility being more vocal in support of the war – kudos to Lieberman, Obama, and Clinton…
If Lieberman switches parties, he’ll lose reelection. I’d rather have a sensible democrat in power than the alternative.
ditto
We know that we have at least one sane democrat! I have long respeced Liberman, he’s an honest democrat, which is hared to find nowadays.
