Lieberman On Conservative Kristol: "If Kristol Says What I'm Doing Is Right, It Must Be Right"
The New Republic | Jonathan Chait | June 15, 2007 09:36 AM

Perusing the Weekly Standard's promotional package (which isn't online), I came across this testimonial from Joe Lieberman:

"If Kristol says what I'm doing is right, it must be right."

1. Well, "right" as in, the political right.

As in, whack-job, Pat Robertson-esque kind of right.

But correct? :rofl: Joe-mentum needs a push towards "reality".

[Enrique]

2. Lieberman is such a suck-up

it is unpleasant to watch him.

[daa]

3. Thank you Connecticut eom

[Elwood P Dowd]

4. Just about every prediction ever made by Kristol has been wrong.

What a POS Neocon.

[DFW]

5. It is right--far right.

I think someone planted a magnet on the right side of the Senate floor,
and inserted iron plates in Lieberman's suit pockets. He seems unable to
withstand the attraction from that side of the chamber.........

6. Exactly, Joe. Because it sure isn't Left! n/t

8. Joe's right in fact he's too right to be a Democrat.

Joe, please change your party affiliation to Republican. We don't need you and we don't want you.

10. Wes Clark on Joe: "Only someone who never...thought seriously about national security..."

Frankly, I'm a bit more interested in Wesley Clark 's opinion than Kristol's. Here's Clark (via HuffPo):

After wrongly supporting George W. Bush's strategic blunder of attacking Iraq, and continuing to support Bush's failed policies after the invasion, Senator Joe Lieberman made irresponsible comments this weekend regarding military action against Iran.

On CBS's Face the Nation, Lieberman said, "If don't play by the rules, we've got to use our force, and to me, that would include taking military action to stop them from doing what they're doing."

<snip>

Only someone who never wore the uniform or thought seriously about national security would make threats at this point. What our soldiers need is responsible strategy, not a further escalation of tensions in the region. Senator Lieberman must act more responsibly and tone down his threat machine.

15. Yeah, those PNAC folks sure were right-on with that Iraq project.

A dazzling piece of strategy any way you slice it.

[Phredicles]

16. Who's worse: The war-mongering idiot or the suck-up to the war-mongering idiot?

Thanks again, Connecticut...:puke:
