The Ukraine never knew the money was on hold after all it was delivered on time. So Joe, but I have to disagree with you on this.
Republican in drag.
The only thing this old commie has ever been right on is Israel, but everyone seems to thing he is a moderate. Hell, the Democrats were absolutely anti-semitic when he ran against them as an independent, but he still gladly caucused with them.
So very many of our politicians are clueless, incompetent fools.
First, we had Alexander stating that he believes the dems made the case that our President did try to use the aid money to elicit an investigation of Biden.
Now, we have this idiot ex-politician basically stating the same thing.
The only fact witness the dems had stated categorically that President Trump wanted nothing from Zelensky but, for him to do the Right Thing. To do what he was elected to do and that is end the rampant corruption in the Ukraine.
Joe Lieberman has been saying a lot lately over the last couple of years that have raised my opinion of him considerably from when he ran for VP. He took responsibility for his acquittal of Bubba and saiod it was a big mistake. His judgment of this situation affirms my newly found respect of him and shows consistency.
Inappropriate? Really loserman?
“...would have wanted...”????
The Founders would have seen through the farce and would never have let it get this far. The 2 allegations were not even crimes.
The House Dems had nothing, but with the help of the compliant media, they were able to string things (investigations and more unfounded allegations) for nearly 3 years. And they vow to continue as long as they have a House majority.
Remember when I lived in Connecticut in the 1980s. We used to joke that we had a Republican Senator (Wieckert) who acted like a liberal and a Democrat Senator (Liebermann) who acted like a conservative.
I think Senator Liebermann was the last of the JFK Democrats. Nowadays, the nuts in that party make FDR look like a Conservative.
Lieberman would've toed the demonicRAT line.
Did it occur to Beck to ask Lieberman about the appropriateness of Biden's threat to withhold aid unless the prosecutor investigating his son's employer was fired?
Actually, the founding fathers would have hung Joe and Hunter Biden on the gallows.
Did Trump’s lawyers ever bring up the U.S. Ukraine Mutual Aid Agreement? Or the fact that Ukraine got its money within the time allotted?
“Lieberman voted “not guilty” on both articles of impeachment against President Bill Clinton during his Senate impeachment trial in 1999.”
...why should have have voted guilty, it was only OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE and SUBORNING PERJURY, and it was clearly proven?
Nice try, Joe.
Those of us who see shades of grey have long respected Lieberman even though we often don’t often agree with him.

Because by doing so he confirmed to the new reform minded Ukrainian President, and to the world that was listening in, that, unlike the previous administration, he and his administration were not going to have the Ukrainians fire anyone to receive US aid.
President Trump thus removed all doubt that he and the Trump administration are also corrupt as the last US administration.
President Trump confirmed that he and his administration have no plans to loot Ukraine like obama, Biden and others not yet named have been doing.
President Trump confirmed that he is also going to prosecute those who have been looting Ukraine.
Oh my ... no wonder they are doing this impeachment nonsense.
They must throw as much shade and manure as possible on President Trump to distract the masses and the asses away what from they themselves actually HAVE done and actually ARE doing!
You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time ...
Yeah ... until the people wake up, that is ... uh oh... :)
He also added that the voters will have the opportunity to decide Trumps fate in November and that it would be how the Founding Fathers wanted it. He believes that if the framers saw Trumps acquittal, they would respond, This is what we intended.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The FF’s would probably have went back to the drawing board to ensure BS like this wouldn’t happen again, and yes, they would have had the Bidens and the other traitors be the main attraction at a hanging party and ran it on Network TV for all to see what will happen when you F’ with the bull..
(TJefferson would have been so het up he would have invented TV, just for the occasion)
I didn’t always agree with Lieberman but at least he was an adult.
The Democrat party could use a lot more like him nowadays.
Thanks for speaking up senator Lieberman. But there was nothing wrong with the phone call. And had he asked for help with the Ukrainian aspects of the Bidens criminal investigation quid pro quo it would have consistent with his authority to conduct foreign relations and our ukraine treaty indeed the Ds couldve impeached him for not faithfully executing the laws of the United States etc
The whole impeachment hoax is ridiculous. The phone call was perfectly fine. Trump obviously had seen the video of Biden bragging about getting the prosecutor fired, which seems a prima facie case of corruption on Biden's part. Trump probably mentioned it because of free association since he was concerned with whether Zelensky would be serious about combating corruption in Ukraine. He may not even have been thinking of Biden as a potential opponent in 2020 when he made the comment.
The Democrats who keep complaining that Trump delayed aid to Ukraine voted against the aid--total hypocrites but no chance they will be called on it by the media.
Until he specifically apologizes for his treason, I will never forgive Joe for his action/inaction during the 2000 Florida recount fiasco. He was there when Democrat lawyers were disqualifying the absentee ballots of deployed military voters due to the lack of dated postal stamps. During that time, we could send mail from combat zones by simply writing “free” where the postage went, so there was no stamp to cancel.
Disenfranchising military voters exercising their franchise from a combat zone is as low as it gets. Joe is a traitor, and I wouldn’t piss on him if he were on fire.
