- ekspiulo, on 06/25/2008, -33/+223Machiavelli tells us never to tolerate an enemy in our presence. In modern terms, the Democratic party needs to get real about its mission and its values and throw this mother ***** out on the streets.
- BobConway, on 06/25/2008, -26/+150Being an "Independent" is fine, but being McCain's lap puppy is taking things too far.
It just ain't kosher! - gmackenzie, on 06/25/2008, -45/+158Welcome to the United States of Israel.
- debunkthelies, on 06/25/2008, -24/+122AIPAC front man, Liarberman, what a piece of work.
- davidrools, on 06/25/2008, -17/+101Normally I'd support some diversity in the party, keeping things balanced and not too radical. But there's also something to be said about unity, and working together for common goals, and this guy is the guy in the boat rowing the wrong way.
- inactive, on 06/25/2008, -12/+77To call attention to the fact Lieberman put's Israel's interests ahead of America's interests is not anti-semitic. It's pro-American.
- inactive, on 06/25/2008, -22/+81Psssst. That letter "I" doesn't stand for "Independent".
- poogy21, on 06/25/2008, -17/+69As a fellow Jew, I hate asking this.. but; How much money is he doing this for?
- MemeWarrior, on 06/25/2008, -2/+47"It is not anti-Semitic to criticize the policies of the state of Israel."
-Colin Powell - ChristPissed, on 06/25/2008, -7/+49Do not confuse anti-zionism with anti-semitism.
There are thousands of Hasidic Jews throughout the world who on occasion burn the israeli flag to remind us that Zionism is not compatible with, or equivalent to Judaism. - Shao00, on 06/25/2008, -21/+61I can't digg this enough times. This guy is a RNC puppet and the senator for the state of israel.
- xutopia, on 06/25/2008, -5/+38I am disgusted with comments like yours.
Don't make this about anti-semitism. It isn't. We hate AIPAC because it's taken over world politics for a while now. This has nothing to do with racial or religions discrimination. - magicmarker44, on 06/25/2008, -21/+48Lieberloser should be a hint as to how the Dems are complicit with BushCo & the Greedy Oil Party in all their corrupt and evil schemes.... Why won't the Dems do their Constitutional duty and impeach the obviously guilty bastards? Because we have a one party system in America, and We The People have to rise up off our lazy backsides and take the power back before it's too late!
- sagat, on 06/25/2008, -2/+25One country under Moses.
- paralentor, on 06/25/2008, -8/+29Ever notice Lieberman and his bedfellow William Kristol have that same Jack Nicholson Joker smile. Isn't it obvious they are cold blooded reptilians in disguise. These duel Israeli-American citizens just chant war year after year. Israel should be able to handle it's own affairs without 30 billion a year coming from middle class tax payers.
- IanThal, on 06/25/2008, -57/+77I have huge issues with Joseph Lieberman's politics which is why I dugg this video, but I am also disgusted by the blatant antisemitism in the digg comments section. The attempt to turn the Senator's turncoat behavior regarding his own political party into an excuse for bashing Jews in general or Israelis in particular is obscene and unacceptable.
- Vermifax, on 06/25/2008, -3/+19There is no anti-Semitism here. There's anti-Zionism, for which i have no problem with.
If Lieberman really put his Judaism above politics and everything else....he'd be a good guy.
Lieberman traded his Judaism for Zionism years ago, which makes him a bad guy.
www.jewsagainstzionism.com - badllama77, on 06/25/2008, -2/+16I am Jewish and I have to say I am getting annoyed with other Jewish people who think we should blindly support everything Israel does. I was raised learning of all the things that our people have had to endure over the centuries and I see the behavior of Israel and am often ashamed. They are like a child of abuse who grows up and starts abusing others. I understand they are dealing with a very hostile situation but their solutions are not worthy of a forward thinking first world country. At one time the Irish rebelled against the British with bombings etc. and when the British responded in the wrong way with martial law and imprisonment without trial people were outraged. Jews need to step back and look at the situation objectively without this idea that Israel is always right. Many of us dislike what is going on here with the war and our policies towards prisoners, how can we not hold countries such as Israel to the same standards.
- cabdirazzaq, on 06/25/2008, -6/+20We become shocked but in reality, there are dozens of Lieberman out there making all the shots. The only difference is that they work behind doors. These people control the media and they have de facto given their approval of Mr. Obama following his AIPAC appearances. Nader said it best, if Obama continues to censor himself to appeal to these people, his views will sooner or later become like theirs.
He (Obama) went from accurately describing the Palestinians as "the most oppressed people" to claiming that their oppression was due to themselves. - bushputz, on 06/25/2008, -14/+28The only reason Wormtongue Joe is allowed to stick around is that his being a DINO (Democrat In Name Only) gives us the majority in the Senate. We lost the chance to elect another Democrat to his seat in 2006, and will have to wait until 2012 to really get rid of him. In November, we will gain several more seats in the Senate, and won't have to put up with this clown. In the meantime, he needs to be stripped of all rank and power.
- ZoMommEY, on 06/25/2008, -10/+23It seems inconceivable that Lieberman would be tolerated in the Democratic party....but there is a reason. I don't agree with it, but understand it. It has to do with votes in the senate and if Democrats push Liberian and he defects in name and not just in heart in deeds as he is at the moment then the democrats will lose the balance in their favor that they have in the Senate right now. Personally I think the democrats in congress and the senate need to stop being controlled by fear and act boldly and without showing fear. These are hard and extraordinary times. The American people would appreciate boldness and reward it. The democrats need to grow some balls and I don't mean start playing the republican game but to start standing up for what is right and good. All of America is disgusted by the corruption and double speak in D.C., Republican voters as well. Obama did it, now lets hope the rest of the Dem.'s can get invigorated and inspired to be what they were meant to be. The party that opens it's arms to everyone, not just the ones that look, act, talk, and smell like each other. We are the party of non conformity and that is good. That is our country we were founded by, misfits from different places and all walks of life.
- jstohler, on 06/25/2008, -4/+17He'll definitely be out on his ass come November, but in the meantime the Dems need him to maintain majority in the Senate. It's truly an unfortunate situation that someone so slimy can wield so much influence.
- allowners, on 06/25/2008, -14/+27The Lie Berman must go.
- ChristPissed, on 06/25/2008, -16/+29"A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gate is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared."
~Cicero discussing the current evil murderous U.S. Zionist Occupational Government, back in 45 BC - laserblazer, on 06/25/2008, -2/+15History is replete with 9/11s, and long before Niccolò Machiavelli was ever born. For example, take the Spartacus revolt. Roman troops had smashed the rebellion to pieces, but were ordered to form a crush (like a cattle crush except with lots of men) to drive the remnants of the Slave Revolt to Rome to terrify the Romans and allow for expansion of military powers (sound familiar?). This was a classic false-flag type attack (like 9/11) and was probably old at the time.
- PHiZ187, on 06/25/2008, -10/+23Connecticut is as ashamed of Lieberman as we are proud of our other Senator Chris Dodd.
- bushputz, on 06/25/2008, -5/+18IanThai:
I agree. Lieberman needs to be booted out ASAP.
As far as the antisemitism is concerned, I think a lot of people confuse government with citizenry. Just as many people hate Americans because of the actions of the right-wing idiots in charge, a lot of people hate all Israelis and Jews because of the conservative government of Israel.
What everyone must realize is that people are people - we have differences, but we are all more alike than we are different. We must learn to separate government from populace. The people of earth must take back control of their respective rogue governments - poprocksandsoda, on 06/25/2008, -5/+18So let me get this straight ... this is the guy you voted for in 2000 (5 electoral votes short of winning office) as VP but now he has to go from you party. Somehow I wonder if him very likely running with McCain has anything to do with this rhetoric.
- IanThal, on 06/25/2008, -6/+18You are arguing that Lieberman's support of Bush and McCain is a product of his Judaism and even insisting he is disloyal to both Democratic Party and to America because he is a Jew.
That's antisemitism-- and it ignores the fact that most Jewish-American voters and politicians are staunch Democrats. - RC155, on 06/25/2008, -10/+22Lieberman - just Another Mossad sleeper cell called into action.
- cheesylobster, on 06/26/2008, -1/+12As a young Jewish American, I must say Joe Lieberman does NOT represent the mainstream sentiment of the American Reform Judaism movement, and that he stands for the exact opposite ideals that I personally believe in.
This man has been corrupted by money and power, as has been the case for so many of his peers as well. - TinternAbbot, on 06/25/2008, -7/+18A Republican who works with Democrats is post-partisan and a real American, but a Democrat who works with Republicans MUST GO.
- Iztikeit, on 06/25/2008, -1/+11And bring in more people like Nancy Pelosi....Admit it, the Democratic party is as much of a joke as the Republican.
If you think the roles were reversed (the Republicans just took the house and the senate from the Dems) do you think the Republicans would just sit there totally inactive as the executive branch runs around doing what ever it pleases? - GangsterCompute, on 06/25/2008, -5/+15In the 21st century, is it still a good idea to follow advice just because Machiavelli delivered it?
- fowleryo, on 06/25/2008, -4/+13god, the idea that you're automatically an anti-semite because you don't support israel is pure propaganda. as much as a lot of people don't want to believe, israel and jews are two different things.
- kanabiis, on 06/25/2008, -2/+11Yea, fine job that Democratic majority has done, I loved it when they Impeached Bush, and remember how they got us out of Iraq as soon as they took over....
majority is a joke. - kenedamick, on 06/25/2008, -11/+19Senator Joe Lieberman = Senator Palpatine
- mmmmmbiscuits, on 06/25/2008, -1/+9You = Lumpy from 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special
- OC73, on 06/25/2008, -12/+20And yet you all can't get enough of Chuck Hagel. Hypocrites.
- fvarbel, on 06/25/2008, -18/+26Out with the traitor.
- SuperMoses, on 06/25/2008, -0/+8"My awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish state with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power, no matter how modest. I am afraid of the inner damage Judaism will sustain - especially from the development of a narrow nationalism within our own ranks, against which we have already had to fight strongly, even without a Jewish state." - Einstein
Lieberman is now a part of that group Einstein was talking about. - stfucupcake, on 06/25/2008, -1/+9I agree, it's an easy cop out.
Don't say it's anti-semitic (racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-christian, insert your personal beef here) unless it actually is. - inactive, on 06/26/2008, -1/+9This isn't about Jews, it's about a foreign government exerting far too much control over US policy. Our government is supposed to look out for the interest of US citizens. Here's a list of policymakers that hold dual Israeli-US citizenship:
Michael Mukasey (US Attorney General)
Michael Chertoff (Head of Homeland Security)
Richard Perle (chairman of the Pentagon's Defense Policy Board.)
(caught passing Highly-Classified National Security documents to the Israeli Embassy.)
Paul Wolfowitz (Former Deputy Defense Secretary)
Douglas Feith (Under Secretary of Defense and Policy Advisor at the Pentagon.)
Elliott Abrams (National Security Council Advisor.)
Lewis "Scooter" Libby (Cheney's ex-Chief of Staff.)
As anyone can plainly see, all of the offices that shape American foreign policy have been completely co-opted by the Israeli government. Imagine what you be would thinking right now if they were all Mexican citizens, and had steered us into a war with Guatemala. That ***** would never fly. It is not antisemitic to expect that our "civil servants" not put American interests in second place behind the interests of another country. - 55mph, on 06/25/2008, -4/+12Put Lieberman on the ground in Afghanistan as a foot soldier and let's see how long he maintains his neo-con platform.
Old men make War. Young men die. - bjs3171, on 06/25/2008, -1/+8who the ***** is Lieberloser? That is not a real person. Are you 3?
- poprocksandsoda, on 06/25/2008, -1/+8Dude lighten up this is the US Election and not the Italian Renaissance. My mom voted Bill Clinton because of his looks ... that's the reality of today's voter.
- LoveCrumb, on 06/25/2008, -1/+8I feel your pain, honestly. Please bare with me a moment and let me tell you what I see.
A country is not a person. And it is every American's right to disagree with another country's politics without being dragged into a personal slander case. I am offended when people loose sight of the actual debate at hand when they hear a trigger word which they then use to pry logic from the table and redirect the course of discussion towards something that was not stated. It is politically immature to sit and wait to hear these words and then pounce. If you have this reaction every time you are confronted with a communication that harbors these said triggers, you yourself are a sycophant. Sorry Buddy, but we are Americans! Love - MrErr, on 06/25/2008, -3/+10Jews are entitled to self determination but not at the risk of destroying arab lives, which is what zionism does.
- Disregard, on 06/25/2008, -1/+8Yes 3000+ people have never died in any world event before.
