Se, Chuck Hagel Calls Lieberman’s Bullshit

 Chuck
Hagel plastered Holy Joe on Meet the Press this morning and it’s about
time somebody called him on his garbage. Lieberman got on his soapbox
and tried to tell us that Bush’s implementation of the McCain Doctrine
is our only hope in Iraq and then throws his grand children
into the ring. He’s even more offensive today than usual if that’s
possible because he uses the 9/11 attacks and says we’re fighting the
same enemy in Iraq that attacked our country. He knows that’s a right
wing talking point that’s just not true—yet he’ll try to scare people
anyway, Shame on you!

Hagel: I am not nor any member of Congress that I’m aware of Tim, is advocating defeat, that’s ridiculous and I’m
offended that any responsible member of Congress or anyone else would
even suggest such a thing…Sen. Lieberman talks about his children and
grandchildren, we all have children and grandchildren—he doesn’t have a
market on that nor do any of my colleagues. We’re all concerned about the future of this country…

Lieberman jumps on the Iran bandwagon that Bush threw out last week
and is setting up support for an American attack on them. It seems to
be just a matter of time and many of us have been speaking out against
it. Congress needs to push back–hard on it. Hagel calls into question
Joe’s competency (yea) as well he should. When is Lieberman going to
look into the Katrina nightmare again?
