That is very interesting about moving our bases from Germany to Poland. I have noticed how well President Bush and the President of Poland get along.

"It's bad enough to play politics with delicate international matters and our country's security interests, but to undermine an elected administration in the context of a NATO meeting in Europe is unconscionable."

You said it perfectly, absolutely perfectly...

He makes me sick. I was almost to the point of punching my monitor after I read his statement. And it was especially horrible finding it in this thread. If I saw Lieberman walking down my steet I would chase him with a baseball bat. TRAITOR that he is.

Allow me the liberty of adding a few descriptive words to your post, please...

Hmm, let's see... opting out of two unsigned treaties, one of which the Senate voted against 99-0 in a sense-of-the-senate resolution, and the other the 'Toon didn't even have the guts to broach the topic with the Senate about but instead preliminarily "signed" a week before his ousting , and invoking the agreed-upon termination clause of a third treaty, is equivalent to willfully and contemptuously violating a ratified mutual-defense pact.

Where were your guts in supporting these treaties four years ago, LIEman? Why didn't you sponsor Kyoto or the ICC, hmmmmm? I think he must be a member of the vaunted European "intelligensia". Have it both ways...

So France and Germany want to spill American blood while they colonize Iraq. That's their "peace plan"? Figures.

Yes, and the personal is very important to Slavs. Note how Putin today said that he was inclined to back the US essentially because of his personal relationship with Bush.

I had not heard about Putin's statement today. That he is inclined to back the US essentially because of his personal relationship with Bush is very good news.

Politics has always been a factor in foreign policy. Too bad - but that's how it is.

"Sen. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., took a more conciliatory tone, saying he understood part of the reason for the rift: the Bush administration's balking at the Kyoto global climate change treaty, the international criminal court and the abrogation of the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty with Russia."

Once again, Lie-berman proves himself a lying sack of shi'ite. Germany has not implemented Kyoto and Germany is not on board with the ICC either. And since Lie-berman has been a Senator for some years now, he knows very well that the Senate wanted nothing to do with that "treaty." Only Algore did.

The money and manpower we have in Germany... would be much more appreciated by the Poles...

Germany is not our friend.

realize that they are willing to sacrifice a nato ally for their relationship with sadaam...

and all that entails. What is it when a nation turns traitor and executioner on its former allies, in such an evil way? It is a pretext for cataclysmic levels of war. The evil doers are gathering together against us.


We will end up at war with Germany, France, Russia, Red China and the rest of the not-so-secret communist world, INCLUDING the one here in the USA... before this is all over.

We are clearly in the fast lane sprinting towards what will be called (even by the secular experts) armaggeddon... I say bring it on... it is apparently the time of "thinning the herd" in apocalyptic proportions.

The spirit of hitler is alive and well in some nations of this planet... once again it is OUR JOB to take him and his evil followers OUT... time is up.

Wow! When you hear world leaders talking about having a "frank" or "candid" or "forthright" conversations with other world leaders, I think some of the statements made in this article is what they are talking about.

Germany and France are holding out for a big enough offer. They never do anything unless it lines their pocket. They want to ocupy Iraqu and get paid for doing it. Bet the Dems helped them think of it.

France is not part of NATO. Let's expel Germany.
