Can you believe that Joe Lieberman? Iran has gone to war with us, sending troops across its border with Iraq to kill perhaps as many as 200 of our soldiers, and Lieberman wants to stop them. His gall doesnt end with saying that Iran should be asked to quit it, which the administration has done. He has gone so far as to propose we take military action against the base where hostile soldiers are being trained. He is not talking about a massive ground invasion. Air power ought to do the trick, he says, adding that military strategists are the ones who actually ought to decide such things. Simply getting serious and telling Iran whats coming and meaning it might do the trick, too, which is to say, Lieberman has gone much, much too far.
After all, no one likes tough talk. It makes our enemies nervous, and also many of those who are supposedly our friends, people of the appeasing type who worry more about diplomacy than defending U.S. troops from harm. Tough talk makes people nervous in this country, too, especially some Democrats. Lieberman is not one of those anymore. He used to be, even to the extent of being Al Gores running mate. But his outrageous common sense about terrorism cost him a Democratic primary in his most recent re-election. He had to make it back to the Senate as an independent. The really irritating thing about Lieberman is not just that he thinks there really is a terrorist threat that must be thwarted, but that his arguments are so hard to refute.

America doens’t have the guts. They’d impeach Bush.
“Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran....”
Rising to the top of the Hit Parade pretty fast there.
LOL!
That sure would get rid of the dimwits, they would fall out dead in the middle of the Senate floor.
What would most contries do if another nation sent weapons and trained snipers to kill 200 their soliders?
Pretend it didn’t happen?
Remember, liberals think that America is the root cause of all of these problems, and that they would stop killing us if we would just leave Iraq, stop supporting Israel, etc etc.
They think that we deserve it. They applaud the deaths of our soldiers. I hate liberals.
