Wow-Joe hit the nail on the head.

[Kieri]

"How the heck can we be in a battle in which we are fighting as Democrats and Republicans against each other when these terrorists certainly don't distinguish based on party affiliation? They want to kill any and all of us."

In spite of all my issues against his voting record, Joe "GETS IT."

It's kind of hard to argue about left v. right if your heads are getting cut off.

[JennysCool]

"How the heck can we be in a battle in which we are fighting as Democrats and Republicans against each other when these terrorists certainly don't distinguish based on party affiliation? They want to kill any and all of us."

Good for you, Joe. I'll bet his support grew exponentially overnight. Lamont is a joke.

[CBart95]

Would someone tell Lieberman to cool his jets? Silence is golden here.
No one care what the former VP thinks...if he thinks at all.

[Moose4]

On this issue, if on no others, Lieberman does indeed get it.

He'll always be the sidekick half of "Sore Loserman 2000" to me, but he does understand what we're up against with Islam, at least partially. And he does strike me as a basically decent human being, albeit one with views I very much disagree with.

We are in a war for our very survival. Israel, Europe, the U.S., we are all in this together, whether we like it or not.

Europe and the leftists world-wide can determine to help, or they can practice subtrifuge and fall back on being rescued later.

We have confronted this type of situation before. Some of us learned something from the last go-round. Others will simply NEVER learn.

[JohnnyZ]

So are the Democrats going to split over the war now or what?

[llevrok]

Politically, today's averted air bomb threat could not have been better timed for Joe.

Somethings in the water in Connecticut must be...
Those people are gaganutz.. course it is close to Massachusetts..
Must be some runover in the aquifer..

[RichardW]

That's good Joe. That's the way to stick it to this Lamont weinie. He couldn't find his way to the men's room when it comes to terrorism.

If Joe keeps it up, he will win by 75% of the vote. Lamont is a perfect example of a total dork. I wouldn't vote for him for dogcatcher. And I'm sorry to sullie the reputation of dogcatchers who earn an honest living.

[Cincinna]

Al Quaida has just given Lieberman an edge over his peace loving, Pacifist opponent Ned Lamont.

Lamont tells us there is no real danger. This will flush Lamont out on National Security issues.

Lieberman has always been correct on those issues, and the contrast is highlighted by today's events.

[colorado tanker]

I don't agree with Joe much on domestic issues, but I think I'd probably cross the aisle to vote for him in Connecticut, just to stick it to Lamont and the MoveOnMoonbats.

[johnny7]

And Lamont deftly responds... “DOH!”

[Rummyfan]

"How the heck can we be in a battle in which we are fighting as Democrats and Republicans against each other when these terrorists certainly don't distinguish based on party affiliation? They want to kill any and all of us."

Wow! He makes a good point there. Wonder if any of his brethren in the Dem Party are taking note?

[TheDon]

Sounds like the Rat party has left Joe, not the other way around.

[TheDon]

So much for the Rat Party appealing to the middle as not being soft on defense.

[contemplator]

Joe is essentially going directly after the conservative vote. At this point he knows he stands a better chance of getting Republicans to vote for him than to change the mind of the Democrats who have him tagged as a traitor to the party. The real question here is will he be able to combine enough Republicans and Democrats to pull off an overall victory in a blue state? I'm leaning towards yes.

[AmeriBrit]

The loonie-left tossing Joe aside and supporting Lamont may have been the best thing that could happen to Joe. Perhaps now we'll see the real Joe Leiberman step up to the plate and show his colours. By the looks of things his first step is in the right direction.

[Nachum]

Joe moves away from the dark side of the force.

[BoBToMatoE]

Joe is correct.
