Is this the same Holy Joe who sold all his values down the river to be a yes man for Al Gore? It can’t be.
The United States shouldn’t feel obligated to allow U.N. forces to play a role in stabilizing a postwar Iraq, presidential hopeful Sen. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., said in Tucson yesterday.
“The U.N. truly lost its will in refusing to implement or enforce the resolution that it adopted,” Lieberman said, referring to the measure that required Iraq to disarm weapons of mass destruction.
“They can help us achieve what we want and share the costs, but I wouldn’t feel obligated to bring them in.”
The United States’ commitment to removing Saddam Hussein and its willingness to risk American lives has earned the United States the right to determine the fate of post-Saddam Iraq, Lieberman said.
That fate, ideally, would be the establishment of a democracy, but Lieberman said it will take time to reach that goal
But it is the same Joe. Well put, too.

Keep this Mountaineer in your thoughts:
West Virginia woman who joined the Army because there were few jobs in her hometown is among a dozen soldiers reported missing after a supply convoy was ambushed in southern Iraq, her father said Monday.
Jessica Lynch, 19, of Palestine, worked as a supply clerk with the Army’s 507th Maintenance Co., said her father, Greg Lynch.
“The only thing they can tell us is she’s missing,” Lynch said.

Not a bad night for the Oscars- Best Documentary is awarded to a fat, lying, prevaricator, whose research methods are almost as bad as his politics(more Moore lies here and here, Best Director awarded to a sexual predator and wanted fugitive from justice.
Not bad guys.

Well, apparently it doesn’t matter how dirty, smelly, and annoying you are, you can’t stop the American war machine (a good lesson for both hippies and the French).
