Joe Lieberman is the new Zell Miller

I know even less than Joe Lieberman about the situation in Baghdad, but I'll confidently say this - I trust a reporter, in this case CNN's Michael Ware, a whole lot more than I do a Republican sycophant in Washington.

From what I'm reading, violence in Baghdad might be down slightly since the U.S. surge began, but violence is up all over the country.

Well, we've heard from McCain that things are better in Iraq, and we've heard from Joe Lieberman. Who's next? Was Rudy busy yesterday? What about Newt Gingrich?

I've got a good idea - why not get former Senator Bill Frist on the phone - he's masterful at diagnosing a situation with just a few minutes of video.

Lieberman and McCain - perfect together. Perfectly ignorant and ideologically programmed to believe that someday we'll be victors in Iraq.

Pathetic and sad - two men with a lot of good qualities, politically ruined (as they should be) because of their myopic views on this misbegotten war.

Joe Lieberman really is the new Zell Miller - loved by Repubes, despised by Democrats the world over. Joe's simply an ass with a trunk.
