Joe Lieberman's Short Memory Posted by Patrick Barry

Joe Lieberman apparently has an incredibly short memory.  Either that or his audacity of deception is reaching for new heights.  Take a look at what he just said at the RNC:

"When others wanted to retreat in defeat from the field of battle, when Barack Obama was voting to cut off funding for our troops on the ground, John McCain had the courage to stand against the tide of public opinion and support the surge"

Obama? Cutting off funding for the troops? I wonder if Lieberman is thinking about H.R. 1591, an emergency bill that would have approved $1 billion for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Actually that can't be it because John McCain decided not to support the troops by voting against that bill. Barack Obama on the other hand, supported the legislation.  Or maybe Lieberman is referring to the 2nd version of the bill, the one approved by the Senate 51-46?  Well that can't be it either, since John McCain didn't show for that vote.  Barack Obama did though, and again, he voted for it.   

Looks like Lieberman needs some new fact checkers.

HT: Media Matters, for dropping these nuggets into my lap by pure coincidence.

Joseph Lieberman is neither a Democrat nor a Republican but rather an untrustworthy opportunist. Follow the money trail, and you will find Lieberman's nose sniffing the tracks to his own personal honey pot.

Joseph Lieberman works for the interst of state of Isreal..not America..He wants a war against Iran to protect Isreal..Amercan's boys dying for Isreal casey

Joe Lieberman was a whiney embarassment even back when he ran with Gore. He is pathetic as a pandering old man now.

More importantly...did you see that convention tonight? All white guys! No, I should say, all OLD white guys!

I've never seen a more out of touch group.

Get ready for tomorrow when the special guest will be "noun, verb, 9/11."

Keep up the fear mongering boys!

"Country First"? I'd rather have "PEOPLE First."

My friends...

For those who have not used a 24-hour hand, it makes one full revolution of the dial over 24 hours which means that 12 pm is at 6 clock on the dial. This features allows you to track two timezones: one using the standard time hands, and the other using the GMT hand and the 24hr bezel. The bezel has a grippy coin edge and a light but clicky turn.The included bracelet is nice and light. Replica Casio Watches features solid end links (spring bars), and the outer links of the bracelet are screwed together. The clasp has a fold-over design with a signed safety. The bracelet is a perfect fit for the Replica Wittnauer Watches and integrates beautifully with the lugs. I will mention that the PVD on the bracelet is very light and after some considerable time on my wrists, there is noticeable wear. If PDV wear bothers you, go with the brushed/polished model instead (brushed on top and polished on the sides of the case).This is a Replica Vacheron Constantin that is up for just about any task and does so with little fuss or explanation. I wore it on a twelve day trip to San Francisco and Replica Ulysse Nardin Watches kept up perfectly. The Replica Zodiac Watches is light enough to be worn without consideration, classy enough to be worn with any attire, and with the GMT complication, it is a traveler's best friend. It's amazingly accurate; many days, it showed no deviance at all, and after a month, it is usually within +/-4 seconds.The G-1 starts at $549, which is an amazing price for a watch of this quality. Many other Replica Tommy Hilfiger Watches that feature this movement retail for hundreds to thousands more, and the G-1 is without a doubt the best design from OCEAN7 that we have reviewed to date. The model as reviewed is $599, and the buyer can choose from a series of bezel colors to suit either finish.OCEAN7 Watch Company have outdone themselves on the new G-1 GMT *** a very cool watch that doesn't sacrifice quality, features, looks, or everyday practicality; For updates on content, follow Watch Report on Twitter.
