Which Joe?The New Republic really likes Joe Lieberman, who has scored 4 straight 'A's in their primary blog: Liebererman[sic] is just as critical of the Bush administration's post-war planning, but his criticism carries a lot more weight, considering that he's already made clear that he supported the war. As Lieberman said to Kerry last night, "It was time for decisiveness, which is what people expect in their president, not uncertainty and ambivalence." That line may not win Lieberman many votes, but it's straightforward and honest, which is more than you can say about some Democratic posturing on Iraq.One of my friends like to joke that there are two Joe Liebermans, one who went with his beliefs in the Senate and another who pandered to the Left during the 2000 campaign. Looks as if the old Joe Lieberman is back, at least for now. |
