		<description>I could really care less what LIEBERMAN has to say. I have always found him repulsive and I seriously wonder where his loyalties really lie. Probably with Joe LIEBERMAN!! Ahmadinejad is always pretty darn straightforward and honest when he talks.   When dealing with this whole subject - the worst thing one can be is honest and tell the truth. Israel stole the land of Palestine and became a mean-spirited apartheid state and Ahmadinejad calls them out on it. Iraq attacked Iran with US support. In our stupidity, we decide to not even talk to them as the criminal bankers call for more war so they can become that much more wealthy and they spread all kinds of lies and deceit. We should all be ashamed.</description>

		<description>With regard to Obama and bombing, I worry only that Obama has courage enough to NOT bomb anyone.  But I hardly worry at all on that front.

What I really fear that some October surprise will give the Republicans an opportunity to start some dreadful conflagration.</description>

		<description>Leiberman is one &#039;scary dude&#039;.

John McCain wants him as his future Secretary of State( &#039;war&#039;, in leiberman&#039;s case).

Over 80% of the people of Israel want an actual peace settlement throughout the Middle East. Leiberman, the powerful Israel Lobby group here in the US, and most of the &#039;older&#039; politicians in Israel do not - they actually like it the way it is (the military/industrial machine that has become increasingly more and more powerful starting in the 1950&#039;s - President Ike warned of this in his last address to the nation).

We need a new generation of politicians, like the newly elected PM in Israel, who along with Obama can affect real &#039;Changes&#039; - away from a military solution to a peaceful/diplomatic one.</description>

		<description>Iran isn&#039;t a threat to U.S. or Israel.People who think that if they don&#039;t, at every point, have an advantage, they they are victims at a supreme disadvantage have got some screws they need to tighten. Iran is &lt;em&gt;competition&lt;/em&gt; for a pipeline from the Caspian Sea. Iran might be able to defend itself from an Israeli attack. They might be able to produce an atomic bomb. This somehow constitutes unmitigated evil that must be crushed. 

What creating enmity where there is none and ordering the dropping of bombs from high flying aircraft has got to do with &quot;having balls&quot; escapes me. Lieberman is a raving coward.</description>

		<description>Connecticut voters have soured on Sens. Joseph I. Lieberman...

..The telephone survey of 500 people was conducted Sept. 19-23 by Pulsar Research and Consulting. MOE of plus or minus 4.4%.

When asked to rate the jobs they are doing as senator, Lieberman and Dodd each drew higher negatives than 
positives, with Lieberman faring the worst...

44% of residents rated Lieberman negatively, saying he is doing a fair (26%) or poor (28%) job. Thirty-seven percent viewed him positively, giving an excellent (10%) or good (27%) rating.

The poll found that Lieberman, a registered Democrat who relied on Republicans and unaffiliated voters for 
his re-election in 2006, has lost much of his independent base.

61% of Republicans viewed him favorably, compared with 23% of Democrats and 37% of independents.

He was viewed unfavorably by 30% of Republicans, 69% Democrats and 53% of independents.

&quot;He&#039;s really polling as a weak Republican, rather than a wounded Democrat,&quot; said Barnes

		<description>I know the way Lieberman and all neocons operate is based on FEAR.  Fear at home.  Fear abroad.  Creating enemies.  Fear fear fear. 

I particularly don&#039;t care about the way these chicken hawks try to act manly, which is, they flex their muscles alot for tiny little countris, but bag it when it comes to powers that can fight back.  It&#039;s like bullies who push women and children around and then shut up when they see a big guy.  These people are not particularly tough or smart.  Case in point is Bush.  Neither tough, nor smart.

Bush tried to be that man whom the world, and the enemies he created, &quot;fear&quot;.  Guess what.  With his bellicose, bull in a china shop approach, he has turned this country into a paper tiger whom nobody fears nor respects anymore.  This sort of medival thinking has been extremely harmful to the country. 

Lastly, if I am someone like Ahmadinejad, I&#039;d be a lot more wary in the presence of someone like Obama who looks bigger, tougher, younger, smarter, more nimble than washed up, shriveled up fools like McCain who collaborated with the Vietnamese or the recovering alcoholic Bush.</description>

		<description>As a Jew I&#039;ve listened to Lieberman’s ravings about Palin. This is for him.

As you attend Yom Kipper services, the Day of Atonement, the day Jews stand before God to ask forgive for our transgressions, start searching your soul.   In our faith, God can forgive all transgressions against God but not for wrongful acts against other people. You, Mr. Lieberman, you have committed transgressions against every Jew. You have sold yourself to the CNP, the ultra conservative Right who’s only purpose for Jews is to convert them to Evangelical theology or have them burn in hell. Supporting Palin confirms that you have embraced this theology. Standing next to her as she smiles amid shouts of “Terrorist” and “Kill Him”, you sheepishly shout that “God willing, this is our next Vice President”.  Whose God are you referring to?  Certainly not the God of Abraham?   Who are you Joe Lieberman?   How can you, the husband of a wife of holocaust survivors, look in the mirror or face your wife, your children, and your family?   You are no more a Jew than Dobson, Hagey, LaFay and all the rest of them. There were Jews during the Holocaust that sided with Nazis, &quot;Hitler&#039;s Jewish Soldiers&quot;.   You, Mr. Lieberman are a foot soldier for the CNP.

As the gates are closing and God has determined who will be written this year in the book of life, don&#039;t look for Joe Lieberman. You are no longer a Jew; not yet a Christian. You are no longer a Democrate or Independent ; not yet formally a Republican. You have sold your soul, integrity, and everything that is important to our faith. Listen to the sound of the Shofar. Open your ears and your heart Mr. Lieberman. Start doing the right thing. Not the RIGHT thing!</description>

		<description>I hope after 4 weeks from today,we will not be hearing anymore from Mr. Liberman. 
He will be concerned with his own state. 
Enough of his lecturing on foreign policy,scaring approach,wars,and also his endless lecturing of American on America&#039;s enemies.
We know what Lieberman wants...another big war in the Middle East payed for by American sons and their money.</description>

		<description>As Nalogous said. I am more worried the next Pres has the right stuff to NOT be stampeded into another ill advised miliatary catastrophe because power wants another war. The Iranians dont HAVE to be a military problem. They are not Arabs and feel isolated in a middle east where racial politics is huge. They would LOVE to have decent relations with us as a hedge against another racial war like the Iran/Iraq war of the 80s. A huge portion of their population are young people that love our movies and have no problem with Western culture. If we engage them diplomatically, give a diplomatic presence in their country and let it be known we wouldnt allow the Iranian military to slaughter the Iranian people, if we dial down the rhetoric so their populace is no longer terrified we are going to invade them because of stupid irresponsible rhetoric like Liebermans. The natural course for their country as the population becomse bolder and the demographics work themselves out is a much more moderate Iran. If the people think we wont let their military slaughter them and if THEIR MILITARY thinks we wont let their people be slaughtered we will almost certainly see a natural democratic upwelling. We should remember IRAN had the first realy democratic country in the Islamic middle east before WE overthrew it. This is a problem that hostile belligerance has a much higher probability of making worse than of solving</description>

		<description>5th Estate Says: 

I believe he’s naive to think that people like Ahmadinejad and Tehran Iran will somehow become America’s friend just by…

They keep talking about Ahmedinijad as though he wields unchecked supreme executive power (like Bush and Cheney) when in fact he’s no more relevant to the issue than John McCain was to the Ossetia crisis when he presumptuously declared “we are all Georgians now”. 
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;

Exactly so their system is not OUR system. Ahmadinejad cant get a parking space without either Rafsanjani or Khameinis say so.</description>

&quot;4 weeks from today McCain and Lieberman can start working on their “Bucket List”.&quot;

Maybe after Obama wins the election McCain and his faithful companion can save the world by reprising their superhero roles as Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy.</description>
