Lieberman: ‘I see progress.’

Wearing a pair of sunglasses newly purchased from an Iraqi market, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) said yesterday: “Overall, I would say what I see here today is progress, significant progress from the last time I was here in December. And if you can see progress in war that means you’re headed in the right direction.” Watch the video at link~

As ThinkProgress noted last night, U.S. soldiers contronted him with a very different message: “We don’t feel like we’re making any progress.” The soldiers wanted to know, “When are we going to get out of here?”

How many times has he been to Iraq? I'll bet every time he's been there he's come back with a positive assessment.

[Duncan Grant]

I guess those Iraqi sunglasses are ultra-rose colored.

27. How would Joe know? He managed to avoid the draft during

the height of the Vietnam war first, with an educational deferrment and then (when the draft got tougher) because he had a wife and a child. It's amazing that these wimps think they're experts on war.

[sinkingfeeling]

28. Then Joe should stay in Iraq and continue to see that progress and help fulfill his dreams.
