Lieberman: U.S. May Be Attacked In 2009

Source: CBS News

In describing the reasons he believes the Republicans' presumptive nominee for president would be better prepared than the Democrats' to lead the nation next January, Sen. Joe Lieberman said that history shows the United States would likely face a terrorist attack in 2009.

"Our enemies will test the new president early," Lieberman, I-Conn., told Face The Nation host Bob Schieffer. "Remember that the truck bombing of the World Trade Center happened in the first year of the Clinton administration. 9/11 happened in the first year of the Bush administration."

Lieberman nonetheless distanced himself from remarks by McCain chief strategist Charlie Black, who came under criticism for suggesting in an interview that McCain's election chances would be improved if a terrorist attack occurred before November.

"Sometimes even the best of them say things that are not what they intended to say," Lieberman said. "Certainly the implications there I know were not what Charlie intended. And he apologized for it. Senator McCain said he didn't agree. And, of course, I feel the same way.

Be afraid people... Be very afraid...
That this tactic succeeds

I vote Senile Dementia onset.

Get the fuck out of here.

Isn't there some way for us to remove him from the party by force?

before the election this fall..........by Blackwater. Of course, the Blackwater operatives will make it look like terrorists did it!

Thus he's trying to make the best of his remaining ones

Gee...911 happened under the republican watch...so we should vote republican.

DUHHHHHHHHHHH. That's rightwingnut "logic" for ya.

:eyes:

of the "prior" administration so this must mean its all the fault of Bush and his failed policies.

to say that ANY attack on the US in the next 20 years is largely the fault of *.

And any 2009 attack will be Obama's fault. Poor georgey. He tried to protect us but the Dems just wouldn't let him!

that the sun will rise in the East and there will be at least one fender bender in 2009.....



:boring:

Since it would appear Lieberman has knowledge of a potential terrorist attack, shouldn't the intelligence community use all the tools at their disposal to extract the details from him? ticking timebomb and what-not...

He spends all his time talking up his wet dreams of terrorist attacks against Americans.

this scumbag was the Democratic VP nominee in 2000. This asshole is dirty and should be one of the first on the list come Bastille Day, July 14 btw.

Lieberbush must be commander of the fear brigade.
