Former Sen. Joe Lieberman cautioned Democrats vying for the White House in 2020 against criticizing the airstrike ordered by President Trump that killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani in Iraq last week.
"My final warning to my fellow Democrats: be careful what you do -- either out of a general feeling of opposition to President Trump or partisanship, thinking about the Democratic primary," Lieberman said Monday on "Your World."
"In the end, the American people are not going to vote for anyone for president who they don't think is willing to use American force to protect our security," he added.

Every now and then, Lieberman gets a clue, but he's still a partisan hack. I'm withholding praise because he rightly criticized Clinton during impeachment, but then fell in line and voted with all the other Dems in the Senate.

Was Soleimani responsible for the death of our beloved 'real' journalist, Michael Kelly?

The dem candidates are saying these things, because they are cowards. They are actually afraid of the Iranians. That is why they want to try to bribe them with money and appease them with concessions.
Loserman knows this and the American public knows this.
Biden is so stupid and cowardly that he advised Obama not to approve the mission into Pakistan to kill Bin Laden. Even his analogy of "Throwing a stick of dynamite into a tender box" is stupid. Tender is used to start fires. If it is blown up with dynamite the tender is destroyed and cannot be used to start fires. Biden is too stupid to even know how tender works.

Personally, I don't think the Dimms are the least bit afraid of the Iranians. My opinion is that they are FOR anyone and anything that will completely destroy America (and most of us) so they can rule the world as one world government.
They hear chants of "Death to America," and they shout "AMEN!"

Been wondering for a while when and if any traditional Democrats would speak out about their party's radical ideas and frenzied activism. It's about time we hear from a Democrat with a voice of reason concerning this frenzied campaign to turn America inside-out and upside-down. Wish there were more of them (are there any?) who have the courage and wisdom to come forward.

One thing, #10, most of the snowflakes have absolutely no clue who Joe Lieberman is. After hearing what he said, they probably think he's a extremist right wing Republican. Never forget...They're nuts.

No more appeaser monkeys. As to Obama, I think a lot of people fell more for the historic nature of a minority candidate that they felt they could vote for, vs looking at his actual qualifications. Believe me, I understand where they are coming from. But their desires devastated this country after 8 years and it is time to reelect adults, not just somebody who looks good. He suckered a lot of people that first campaign.
Lieberman was, is, and will die an old partisan hack. Always in it for himself when the bottom line rolls around.

Senator Joe Lieberman was an old time solid Democrat and a proud Jewish man. I always liked and respected him. Still do. I remember how honored and humbled he was to be selected as VP. I can't think of one Democrat senator in congress today that has that type of American Patriotism. Those days are over. What we have now is like a wild group of far left Marxists from a South American country that want to overthrow the government like a Che Guevara.
These freshman congresswomen are ignorant little twits with no life experience and have no love of our country. Anyone who thinks like them should not be a congressional representative. We should require them to have a 90 introductory period to learn our government and be able to pass a test regarding American history and the Constitution. I'm tired of hearing angry nonsense and stupidity coming from them. If they don't like it here, they can leave and go to Venezuela, Bolivia or Palestine.

JL's usage of double negatives makes for a very confusing sentence. Lofos won't comprehend.

It's amazing how much the dem party has changed since 9/11 when we came together as a great Country and when Lieberman was in office. Such dems as Lieberman and such a dem party no longer exist. In their place is a party that hates America and borders on and crosses over into insanity. Joe is talking but there is no one left in the dem party capable of hearing him.
We can hope that many independent and nominally more moderate dem voters will hear his words and realize that the party they supported in the past is gone and that what has taken its place is a danger to this Country.

#1, Obama capitalized on the killing of Osama bin Ladin. Without that, he probably wouldn't have been reelected.

Personally, we should have done this, and more, long ago. I'd really like to put one of those missiles right into the middle of a meeting of the mullahs who are Iran's current leadership, then follow up, hitting the various Iranian Quds forces. Make a final sweep destroying or sealing off their nuclear facilities.
