Bush is Holding Soldiers in Iraq HOSTAGE, but Lieberman Accuses War Critics of HARASSMENT

from Think Progress: http://thinkprogress.org/2007/04/12/lieberman-harassment/

Lieberman: Critics Of Bush�s Iraq Policy Are Engaging �In A Kind of Harassment�

This morning on Fox and Friends, Sen. Joe Lieberman declared, �I�m with McCain. I think that we are making progress over there� in Iraq. He went on to blast the majority of his Senate colleagues who have voted to begin a phased withdrawal from Iraq. Lieberman said, �I say to them�you ought to be fighting to cut the funding off instead of entering into a kind of harassment that�s involved now.� He concluded by arguing Bush�s escalation plan ought to go forward �without us back biting from here.�

Watch it: http://thinkprogress.org/2007/04/12/lieberman-harassment/

all Bush has to do is drop his demand for a blank-check to continue his occupation indefinitely - as he's said, "for as long as he's president"

that there was a memorial service . . .

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, left, and Anthony Principi, former U.S. veterans affairs secretary, right, watch black cases containing the remains of six American soldiers from the Korean War on North Korea's side of the border village of Panmunjom Wednesday, April 11, 2007. U.S. envoys entered South Korea from North Korea in a rare border crossing Wednesday after securing the remains of six American soldiers from the Korean War and pushing for action on the North's nuclear disarmament.

4. The name "Lieberman" will go down in history alongside "Quisling" and "Benedict Arnold".

That's the legacy Joe is looking at. I hope it was worth it.

5. Show him harassment

He obviously doesnt know what harassment is. Somebody needs to get that man a dictionary! What I propose, is that we actually show him what harassment is.
