Salon quiz game: WHO SAID IT? (Bush or Lieberman)

[iconoclastNYC]

During his debate with Democratic challenger Ned Lamont last night, Joe Lieberman tried desperately to distance himself from a president whose war he has spent so much time supporting. Meanwhile, George W. Bush was doing his best to keep his distance from Lieberman in an interview with Larry King -- not because he doesn't 'ppreciate his support, but because he said he's wary of giving Lieberman a "political kiss" -- they've already shared the real kind -- which "may be his death."

So did all the distancing work?

You be the judge.

Yes, Lieberman said last night that he would have handled Iraq differently than Bush did after the war began, and he also pointed to other issues on which he's disagreed with the president in the past. But again and again last night -- as it has been again and again over the last six years -- it sure was hard to tell one man from the other.

Think you can do it?

has the sobriquet "Bush's favorite Democrat" around his neck like an albotross.
He's trying to disassociate himself now but it's too late.
