Lieberman = Idiot Idealogue

Well after his little "speech" last night, the Republican Party looks more like the Nazi Party, Good luck to all of them.

Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, the Democrats’ vice presidential nominee in 2000, urged Democrats to cross party lines Tuesday night and cast their votes for Sen. John McCain of Arizona, telling they they could “always count on him to be straight with you about where he stands and to stand for what he thinks is right regardless of politics.”

Lieberman, who is now officially an independent but continues to caucus with the Democrats, was addressing delegates at the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., but he was really speaking to millions of Democrats watching at home on television.

“What, after all, is a Democrat like me doing at a Republican convention like this?” Lieberman asked.

His answer: “I’m here to support John McCain because country matters more than party.”

Lieberman, who was widely reported to have been a finalist to join McCain as his vice presidential running mate, returned to that theme over and over.

“John McCain’s whole life testifies to a great truth: Being a Democrat or a Republican is important. But it is not more important than being an American,” he said.

Lieberman praised McCain’s support for President Bush’s “troop surge” in Iraq, casting it as a principled stand in the face of widespread popular disagreement.

“When others wanted to retreat in defeat from the field of battle — when Barack Obama was voting to cut off funding for our troops on the ground — John McCain had the courage to stand against the tide of public opinion and support the surge, and because of that, today, our troops are at last beginning to come home, not in failure, but in honor,” he was to say.

Lieberman’s address had been highly anticipated at the convention, four years after another official Democrat, Zell Miller, then a senator from Georgia, gave a fiery address at the 2004 Republican convention urging Bush’s reelection.

Lieberman took a less outspoken tack, but he made it clear where he stood: with McCain, whom he has accompanied on foreign trips as an unofficial adviser on foreign affairs.

“Only one leader has shown the courage and the capability to rise above the smallness of our politics to get big things done for our country and our people,” Lieberman said. “And that leader is John McCain.”

By contrast, Obama, the Democratic nominee, “is a gifted and eloquent young man who can do great things for our country in the years ahead,” he said, “but eloquence is no substitute for a record — not in these tough times.”

Speeches by Lieberman and former Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., followed a brief address by President Bush, who spoke to the convention by satellite from the White House. In a break with tradition, the sitting president did not get the marquee speaking slot — during the hour the broadcast television networks were covering the action — reflecting convention organizers’ concern that Bush’s unpopularity could drag down the ticket.

Afterward, in an interview with NBC News, Lieberman repeated that “John McCain is the best choice for president,” but he demurred when asked if McCain’s little-known running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, was ready to take over if disaster struck. “Let’s hope for the best. John is in great shape,” he said.

Palin has provided an unwelcome distraction after her announcement Monday that her unmarried 17-year-old daughter is pregnant and that a private attorney has been retained to represent the governor in an investigation into the dismissal of the state public safety commissioner.

Lieberman said it was initially awkward to be speaking at a Republican convention. But he said, “I didn’t expect my party to take the turns it did, especially on national security and foreign policy.”

Any port in a storm, in other words, eh Joe? What a bunch of bullshit.
 
Interesting how that played out. There he was "preaching" to all us Democrats "look at me here, if I'm here, why do you think I am" like he's the arbiter of the party or something.

It isn't like the Democrats are perfect or anything, I mean being baby killers is a big red blot and all, but still...
 
If it had anything to do with him being Jewish, as opposed to being an idiot idealogue, he wouldn't be so traitorious.

Jews are much more loyal than that. Of course, being the ignorant white trash you are, how could you be expected to comprehend anything even that simple?

Loyal only to Israel.

Loyal only to Israel.

I'm more educated than you, more well-read than you, have more money in the bank than you, come from better stock than you, and not under suspicion of child molestation like you are. Try again, jackie.

See, here's the thing, noseboy: Lieberman, being a jew, is... you guessed it... loyal only to Israel. McCain will be more of the same, and that included unlimited asslicking of the Knesset and whatever they want. Things wouldn't be that sure under Obama. That's why Liebstein crossed lines.
 
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz try again. I have two college degrees, am currently working on a third, read Atlas Shrugged in third grade for sport, have 6 figures in the bank and don't fuck vinyl.

Idiot.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I have two BAs, an MA, don't want any more, wouldn't wipe my dog's ass with Atlas Shrugged (and no one reads shit like that in the 3rd grade), and the only way you have six figures in the bank is if you count the two decimal places. I don't fuck vinyl either except in your masturbatory fantasies... and I really don't want to know about that.

Back on subject, now that we've established neither of us is white trash... like your daughter is... anyone who discounts the power of AIPAC on Capitol Hill and its influence on Congress (specifically Liebstein) is a politics moron or simply in denial. There's no other explanation for why American foreign policy has been 110% in favor of Israel for the last 30+ years despite all of the disadvantages it has brought us.

Taxpayer money to the tune of $5 Billion a year goes to Israel as foreign aid, gets funneled back to AIPAC where it trickles into re-election campaign funds for Senators and Congressmen who play ball with the tapirs. Don't give me any shit about AIPAC not being a real PAC and not contributing... you know perfectly well that money talks and bullshit walks on the Hill, so something's going on.

Think Lieberstein isn't hipdeep in the cash flow? Ah-ha-ha-ha.
 
"John McCain had the courage to stand against the tide of public opinion..." What a fucking idiot. McCain's job is to represent the will of the people, not thwart it.

Lieberman is a worthless cunt.
 
Was Atlas Shrugged even around when Jack was in 3rd grade?

Yep, the book was written in 1957 and was her last work of fiction (Fountainhead was another beauty). My mom was a member of the Objectivist society in Boston, and starting in 1962 (when I was 8), we used to go to the weekly discussions downtown which Rand hosted. That's how I got into it, that book was a footprint for some of Rand's Objectivist rhetoric.

from wiki:

The theme of Atlas Shrugged is the role of the mind in man's life and, consequently, presentation of a new morality- the morality of rational self-interest.[4]

The main conflicts of the book surround the decision of the "men of the mind" to go on strike, refusing to contribute their inventions, art, business leadership, scientific research, or new ideas of any kind to the rest of the world. Society, they believe, hampers them by interfering with their work and underpays them by confiscating the profits and dignity they have rightfully earned. The peaceful cohesiveness of the world disintegrates, lacking those individuals whose productive work comes from mental effort. The strikers believe that they are crucial to a society that exploits them, denying them freedom or failing to acknowledge their right to self-interest, and the gradual collapse of civilization is triggered by their strike.

The novel's title is an allusion to the Greek Titan Atlas who was described as literally holding the celestial globe on his shoulders (as per Atlas), discussing what might happen if those holding up civilization suddenly decided to stop doing so. In the novel, the mythological analogy comes during a conversation between two protagonists, Francisco d'Anconia and Hank Rearden, near the end of part two, chapter three, where Francisco (convincing Rearden that he is under-appreciated) tells Rearden that if he could suggest to Atlas that he do one thing, it would be to shrug.

In the world of Atlas Shrugged, society stagnates when independent productive achievers began to be socially demonized and even punished for their accomplishments, even though society had been far more healthy and prosperous by allowing, encouraging and rewarding self-reliance and individual achievement. Independence and personal happiness flourished to the extent that people were free, and achievement was rewarded to the extent that individual ownership of private property was strictly respected. The hero, John Galt, lives a life of laissez-faire capitalism as the only way to live consistent with his beliefs.

In addition to the plot's more obvious statements about the significance of industrialists and mental work to society, this explicit conflict is used by Rand to draw wider philosophical conclusions, both implicit in the plot and via the character's own statements. Positions are expressed on a variety of topics, including sex, politics, friendship, charity, childhood, and many others. Part of this is the theme that its broad array of ideas are in fact interrelated by their basic philosophy, and the significance of ideas to society and to one's life.

Atlas Shrugged portrays fascism, socialism and communism – any form of state intervention in society – as systemically and fatally flawed. However, Rand claimed that it is not a fundamentally political book, but that the politics portrayed in the novel are a result of her attempt to display her image of the ideal person and the individual mind's position and value in society.[5]

Rand argues that independence and individual achievement enable society to survive and thrive, and should be embraced. But this requires a "rational" moral code. She argues that, over time, coerced self-sacrifice causes any society to self-destruct.

She is similarly dismissive of faith, in a god or higher being, or anything else as an authority over one's own mind. The book positions itself against religion specifically, often directly within the characters' dialogue.


Rang pretty clearly for me at 9, that's all I can say.
 
lol.

also, it's not at all impressive to have multiple college degrees. I think 17 college degrees add up to a graduate degree.

I know, discovering the human absorption protocols/mechanisms/effects for MSM, glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate for my masters and PhD papers in clinical nutrition wasn't much of a contribution to science or humanity at all, but we all try.
