President Trump’s order to take out Qasem Soleimani was morally, constitutionally and strategically correct. It deserves more bipartisan support than the begrudging or negative reactions it has received thus far from my fellow Democrats.
The president’s decision was bold and unconventional. It’s understandable that the political class should have questions about it. But it isn’t understandable that all the questions are being raised by Democrats and all the praise is coming from Republicans. That divided response suggests the partisanship that has infected and disabled so much of U.S. domestic policy now also determines our elected leaders’ responses to major foreign-policy events and national-security issues, even the killing of a man responsible for murdering hundreds of Americans and planning to kill thousands more.

People like Joe Lieberman and Scoop Jackson don’t grace us today.
We are all just eggs to used to make the globalist omelet.
If the American body count has to rise to accomplish that, well to people like Nancy, so be it.
Joe Lieberman: Why can’t 2020 Democrats admit that Soleimani’s death makes Americans safer?
Because Obama gave Iran $150 billion to finance their terror operations and granted Soleimani amnesty from his war crimes in the illegal Iran Deal.
“We are all just eggs to used to make the globalist omelet.”
So true. Hopefully their throats will be the first to be cut by our enemies.
IF this fool was a candidate today - you can bet your Obama he’d be on the plantation.
“Criminal Act... Morally wrong... Undeclared war... unprovoked aggression... Orange Man Bad.... etc.
Joe LIEberman is behind a wall of millions of aborted babies just so he could try to become vise prezzy! He made a mockery of what being an orthodox Jew is! 24 hour Clock being right once a day does not forgive his being wrong the other 86399 seconds in the day.
1) Joe should also be asking why the MSM can’t admit that it makes us safer.
2) True story: a poorly-informed person at my work on Friday morning was asking why we were assassinating a leader from a country that is an ALLY of ours. The person she asked replied, “I don’t think anyone considers Iran to be an ally.”. Then the poorly-informed person said, “But I thought 0bama gave them billions of dollars, and why would he have done that, if they aren’t an ally?” .
Shaking my head.... Just kept my mouth shut. Have enough trouble staying under the radar on some of these things.
Joke “the conscience of the Senate” Lieberman is still alive? Send in the clowns.

Because they are Sore losers, man!
The only answer: TDS
Because Trump did it. Nothing he does will ever be acceptable to the Dims or their media lackeys. Even if he were to resign they would call him a quitter. We should just go ahead and get this nonsense over with. Start treating them like they treat us.
Bump
I remember those, thanks for the memory. They were all over FR after the 2000 election.
Because the commie left will NEVER give Trump credit for anything..EVER..admitting Trump is right is to admit that they are wrong and they will never admit that, especially in an election year. President Trump could have killed Hitler and the commie left would have trashed him for it. Remember, this is the same left that said NOTHING when Obama used drones to kill over 2500 people throughout his 8 years, no one said a word because no one in the media ever reported on it
Lieberman is right, and that explains why he is no longer a democrat.
We cannot wage this war in a defensive spirit. As our power and our resources are fully mobilized, we shall carry the attack against the enemy--we shall hit him and hit him again wherever and whenever we can reach him.
We must keep him far from our shores, for we intend to bring this battle to him on his own home grounds.
American armed forces must be used at any place in all the world where it seems advisable to engage the forces of the enemy. In some cases these operations will be defensive, in order to protect key positions. In other cases, these operations will be offensive, in order to strike at the common enemy, with a view to his complete encirclement and eventual total defeat.
