HAHAHAHA! Huh?
When I first saw this item, I thought it was a joke.
"Somebody in our government said to me in Sana'a, the capital of Yemen, Iraq was yesterday's war. Afghanistan is today's war. If we don't act preemptively, Yemen will be tomorrow's war," Lieberman said, during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday". "That's the danger we face."
Joe Lieberman wants to preemptively invade Yemen. Because of what? Why?
And will he filibuster healthcare reform unless we do?

I think the latest terrorist got training or something in Yeman.
So I guess we'll all fall down on our knees to Liarman and start a third war. Because, you know, we must do whatever droopy dog says.

Fruit of the Loom Bombers are being trained in Yemen, so we must invade!
Gawd, I'm sick of Lieberman.

LIEberman just wants to bomb more muslims on behalf of his Jewish masters.

What an ass! I hope he goes over there and gets captured by the enemy. Dick!

You're right JM. I never thought about that, just that he's a warmonger.

If we don't go in there and start a war, we'll have a war with them.
Nice. I guess that settles it. We'll go in there and have a war. And we will all be safe because we've seen that is the case with the last two wars.
Seriously, I never thought I'd see the day where so many folks go on TV and advocate war. Shameful.

Tuesday's war will be Connecticut, can we just nuke it now?

@JMAshby - excuse me? "his Jewish masters"? What does that mean exactly?
(If it means us...we don't want him!)

Oh, come on, Bob. Of course Lieberman's gone in front of cameras and said something incoherent and objectively stupid. It's Joe Lieberman.

LIEberman is the star quarterback of the Israeli lobby. He also has dual-citizenship with Irsael. Why do you think he was such a hawk on Iraq, such a hawk on Iran, and now on Yemen? Because those are regional foes of Israel plus they are Muslim. When I refer to his "Jewish Masters" I am referring to the Israeli lobbyists, AIPAC.
LIEberman is a whore to the insurance lobby aswell as them.

And, of course it's Sunday. He just loves those Sunday morning news shows. Especially Fox News Sunday.

I say we drop LIEberman into Yemen as a one-man commando unit and bid him Good Luck(or Riddance)

Does he want to bomb Nigeria too? It would make as much sense.

Hey, I was just thinking....this guy being from Nigeria, was he maybe just pissed of at us because no one fell for his email scam? It seems to me that nearly every email scam I've ever received originated in Nigeria.

Pooper, I could totally see that as an Onion headline, good one.

Lieberman's just using the word "preemptive" to sound hawkish. I doubt he could explain what a "preemptive" action in Yemen would involve.

Forget the terror charges. Nigerian Freedom Hater dude should be sent to GITMO first and foremost for giving Joe Lieberman something new to fucking talk "expertly" about in front of a camera.

Why not invade Nigeria? Yemen doesn't even have any oil!

Something weird is happening here. I have been thinking about Ashby's comments and wondering if Israel is really an ally.
Are we at war with Muslim nations mainly because of asswipes like Traitor Joe?
Shit.

Odd, too, that we have not heard from Dick Cheney's little deferment, Liz. Shouldn't she have been the headliner on FoxNews Sunday? Was she too busy refinancing the mortgage on her fetid soul? You'd have thought she'd be making all the rounds today...

Hielo - I hope that is not just now occuring to you. The short answer to your question is Yes. The long answer involves hundreds of bits of information that is right out in the open that no one really pays attention to.

@ JM Ashby and Hielo - careful you two. Speaking ill of Israel is the equivalent of treason in the modern political climate. AIPAC will have your asses buried in the desert.
@ mattpd - "If we don't go in there and start a war, we'll have a war with them."
Hahaha...thanks, you just gave me an awful flashback to 2003.

Because expanding Medicare will break our bank, but another war is a steal!

Ashby- It has occurred to me before. It is such a horrific concept, that I apparently tucked it away in my memory banks, never to revisit.
Apparently the thought was stored right next to the paranoia concepts of Heaven and Hell.

Roge and JM,
Hold on here...
So...it's the Jews fault that Muslim fanatics hates usses?
Would they stop hatesing usses if we Hitlered the Jewses? Is that what you're getting at?

Another incredibly stupid spin from PPP.

PPP, spinning the night away.
No, they hate us because we're in their countries, bombing their fucking children (even if by accident), messing with their politics, and supporting murderous regimes one day while turning our back on them the next.
Our foreign policy of the last 50 years was one fuckup after another.

Saw this on CNN today:U.S. fears Yemen a safe haven for al Qaeda
http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/12/28/yemen.alqaeda.terror/index.html#cnnSTCText
Still does not make sense to attack them first and stir up more hatred for the US--al Qaeda seems to have many friends and places to run and hide.

@ PPP - Thank you very much for proving my point. I made a simple comment about the vast influence of pro-Israel lobbies, and you reacted as if I'd just made a Mel Gibson-esque rant about how every problem in the world is caused by the Jews or something.
Go back and read my comment. Did I reference Islamo-fascism? Did I reference the war on terror? Did I in any way imply that it's Jews' faults that Muslim fanatics hate America? Try to keep your comments on point.
