Senator Joe Lieberman Calls Out Obama for Not Putting Country First

by John Little on 12/08/2008

I was talking to a very liberal friend today, a Hillary supporter, who said she just couldn’t get excited about Obama. She said his lack of experience was “depressing.” She’s not alone. Joe Lieberman is calling out the inexperienced one as well:

“In my opinion, the choice could not be more clear: between one candidate, John McCain, who’s had experience, been tested in war and tried in peace, another candidate who has not,’’ Mr. Lieberman said. “Between one candidate, John McCain, who has always put the country first, worked across party lines to get things done, and one candidate who has not. Between one candidate who’s a talker, and the other candidate who’s the leader America needs as our next president.”

Joe’s just awesome but I’d add “Between one candidate who comes to the aid of our allies, while the other candidate body surfs and eats snow cones.

Something is developing in the Presidential election and it’s something that only a few people are talking about. The fact that mainstream democrats may just jump ship to vote for McCain in sufficient enough numbers for a victory.

Hot Air
Lest you still doubt whether Liebs will in fact be in St. Paul despite the heavy-handed hints he’s been dropping to reporters, the theme of the convention leaked out today right around the time he was accusing Obama of not putting the country first. The theme: “Putting Country First.” Oh, and his wife Hadassah coincidentally will be a guest at a breast cancer fundraiser organized in St. Paul by a Republican group on the first day of the convention.

Riehl World View
I can’t wait to see the Lefty blogs fully respond to this. Or, is it so devastating their only hope is to pretend it wasn’t said, … or that their former VP nominee Lieberman is unimportant? One day I’m going to have to ask one of my more liberal commenters how it is they manage to get their fingers in their ears when their head is so far up their azz.

Wake Up America
Despite Obama supporters howling at the moon over Lieberman’s words, they are not a smear, a smear is a lie and it is totally truthful and appropriate to put out that McCain has been tried and true in his support for America, in his patriotism and in his efforts to reach across the aisle and work with Democrats….. Obama has not.
