Comments on: Lieberman’s Triple Flip http://thinkprogress.org/2005/02/28/liebermans-triple-flip/ Thu, 26 Nov 2009 07:23:51 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Jim http://thinkprogress.org/2005/02/28/liebermans-triple-flip/comment-page-1/#comment-2839 Jim Wed, 02 Mar 2005 14:02:07 +0000 /?p=345#comment-2839 Kindness, thank you for the intellectual rebuttal. I just get a little miffed when one side (Judd in this case) constantly arranges the facts to support a statement of discussion without taking the entire problem into context. I agree 100% that the same thing could be said to and about the republican side as well. Another problem I think about a lot is the amount of anger, emotion and sometimes vile that people have for the President. It's probably because that's one of the few positions in government where everyone supposedly has a say. Regarding Bush, I'm know he's not perfect but if you really want to make a change then go after Congress because aren't they the ones that make the laws anyway?

With that in mind, what kind of bargaining can be had when one side effectivly says the other side is the only one that is going to give in? I mean, that isn't bargaining. So your parody while well meaning is completely appropriate if you were to say the same things to the repub side.

You actually have people in Congress that are willing to cross party lines and try to come to an agreement and understanding on an issue? And some people are upset about that? And they're also upset about conflicting comments over a 6-7 year period? Thank the lord that EVERYONE's statements aren't permanently archived for future rebuttal and ridicule! Oh I almost forgot, it must be Bush's fault. Wait a minute. You actually have people in Congress that are willing to cross party lines and try to come to an agreement and understanding on an issue?

Perhaps Conn. will get it right someday. Sen Lowell Wieker was a thorn in the Republican’s side for years. Sen Lieberman’s a thorn for the Democrats. Perhaps Conn. will get it right someday.
