Has Lieberman commented on the Libby verdict?

Just wanted to know if he has lent his support to Libby?

:grr:

1. I asked this question the other night. Very little response.

I can find nothing that Lieberman has said since the verdict. Pretty revealing.

Why hasn't he been asked by anyone in the press to comment on Libby's conviction?

4. Probably because he has absolutely nothing to do with it.

He isn't a member of the White House, he didn't work with Libby, and he hasn't been mentioned in the trial. However, I'd be interesting in knowing what he'd say, if only to find out how he'll reconcile his love of moralizing and his love of Bush.

6. He had nothing to do with the Clinton WH, yet he was the first one

out there from Clinton's party moralizing about Clinton's behavior. Why shouldn't he be the first one from Bush's party moralizing about what has happened in Bush's/Libby's behavior??2??

7. Exactly.

And the fact that Lieberman pushed the WMD lies harder than Libby and Cheney ever did.

And WMD's, by the way, is another subject that Lieberman really doesn't talk about anymore either which is curious since he never shut up about them before the Iraqi War.

Which is also the way he went "mute" after Enron collapsed...because he was the largest recipient of Enron cash in the U.S. Senate and which is why he came to their defense early to slow down and hinder investigations into his crooked client.

2. Why would he do that?

Just because he supports the war doesn't necessarily mean he would support Libby

3. Seems he's too busy cheezing it up for Sam Fox at the moment

But wait an hour or two and you'll see him all over the cables as soon as Nancy Pelosi finishes her press conference.

5. I'm not interested in what republicans have to say.

8. Perhaps it's the Mel Sembler connection between Liberman and Libby

So, I wouldn't expect any comments about Libby/trial outcome from Holy Joe anytime soon if ever.
