Lieberman: 'I don't agree with' McCain's new ad

[47of74]

Source: CNN

In a new radio ad released Thursday, McCain takes on the record deficit spending by the Obama administration, which has defended it as an effort to pull the country out of the most severe economic crisis since the Great Depression.

"President Obama is leading an extreme, left-wing crusade to bankrupt America," McCain says in the new ad, I stand in his way every day.”

Asked about McCain’s new ad Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union, Sen. Joe Lieberman said “You know, every now and then, John McCain and I disagree.”

“I don’t agree with that,” Lieberman added referring to McCain’s attack on Obama for record federal spending in the last year. “I think that the president understands the importance of bringing our government back into balance. Look, he came in at a most difficult economic time, inheriting a national debt that had doubled in the preceding eight years.”

Wait a week or two. Lieberman will be singing a different tune by then.

1. Lying little weasel

Now that he stabbed the Dems in the back on healthcare he's trying to kiss ass with stupid statements like this. And the saddest part of all is that he'll probably get away with it. As far as I'm concerned, he can rot in hell.:puke:

19. That should be enough to get Joesnake on the right track. n/t

3. 1/ John McHoover. 2/ Did LIeberman see his poll numbers and decide to change his tune?

3/ A member of the Democratic Caucus should disagree with McCain more than every now and then.

5. Perhaps, that and his

ever obsessive need to be in the spotlight.

[Unvanguard]

4. He voted for the stimulus package, didn't he? I'll take it.

He's still awful, but he's an awful Senator who's on our side on some important questions.

6. What part of HIS-OWN-polls being roadkill is making him disagree with Mc5PL;ANEs?11 n/t

7. Slimy liar. This is the guy that spoke at the republican convention for McCain-Palin and stood on

stage with her nodding his head agreeably and smiling when she called Obama a terrorist and Palin's fans were screaming about Obama "kill him". It's too late Joe, you are lying.

[Marr]

8. True-- it's a *corporate* crusade to bankrupt America.

And Obama's just serving in the ranks, not leading the fight.

[roseBudd]

11. Grrenspan acknowleged during the campaign that McCain had no credible plans for paying for his $3

$3 trillion dollar tax cut skewed towards the wealthy. What is it with Republicans & math?

It's not just the spending stupid, it's the loss of revenue from tax cuts.

12. Joey wants a turn on top.

13. Lieberman destroyed any real health care reform - Now he'll pretending to be against republican

and big corporate money interest, so he could keep his chair and bring up his dismally grim numbers in Connecticut....The lying two-faced pile of pig shit Lieberman.
