Lieberman: U.S. May Face Terror Attack In 2009
Say it ain't so, Joe:
Sen. Joe Lieberman warns the United States will likely face a terrorist attack in 2009 and feels Republican presidential nominee John McCain will be better prepared to handle the imminent attack than Democratic rival Barack Obama.
"Our enemies will test the new president early,” Lieberman says during on interview Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
“Remember the truck bombing of the World Trade Center happened in the first year of the Clinton administration, and 9/11 happened in the first year of the Bush administration," he notes.
Time out!
Now wait a cotton-pickin' mintute! All this time, we've been assured that Bush's invasion and occupation of Iraq was launched to PREVENT terrorists from attacking the US. Yes, the hows of this process were a little hazy -- I recall something about Iraq being "flypaper" that would somehow lull all who hated Americans into directing their fire at National Guard volunteers instead of flying more jets into New York.
And now Lieberman says it was all for nothing?

Okay Mike, you have said enough! Whatever liberties I must give up, I will gladly do so to keep me safe from those who hate us because we are "free!"
This calls for a preemptive strike and a repeal of the rest of the Bill of Rights, not to mention a continued suspension of the rest of the Constitution and voluntary torture to prove we are not homegrown terrorists.
[END SARCASM]
Perhaps ol' Joe is stumping for his pro-war friend John McCain. On the other hand, maybe he is stumping for his pro-war friend Obama. Looks like we'll be bombing Iran either way. Brace yourselves!
Is Lieberman saying 9/11 was a "test" for Bush? Sheesh, talk about overkill. Wouldn't a drug test have been better?
Hah, ha, ha, ha, ha, hah.
