Lieberman On Iran: If We "Knock Out A Base Of Theirs," Then "Yes, They May Respond"

Joe Lieberman gave a press conference with local reporters in Connecticut today. It was a pretty lively affair. You can watch the video here.


He addressed the question of whether hostilities with Iran might have adverse consequences (our favorite):

"So what I'm saying is, if we knock out a base of theirs, if we have to do that, at which they're training these terrorists, yes, they may respond. But look, they're already on the move against us, and they're killing people as a result of it. I hope this is not necessary."

1. Someone ask that cretin how many relatives he has that are
prime military fodder, and ask him if they intend to go fight for the war he's promoting.

3. i will give john mccain kudos for this
he is promoting the iraq war, he has one kid in the naval academy and another is being deployed to iraq. he didnt use his influence to keep his kid out of combat it appears.

at least he practices what he preaches.

2. Joe and the Neocons are aching to open their Pandora's Box.
All they'll get is a variety evils flying out of that box.
