John McCain has many problems, from his anger issues where he disrespected his wife in public to his endorsement from the satanic John Hagee who ‘s begging for war and Armageddon (do you think we can get him to volunteer to be the first casualty?) to Clayton Williams who likens bad weather to rape, but his cozying up to Joe Lieberman, the ultimate hawk and deceiver when it comes to anything that has to deal with Israel and US foreign policy is one of the more distasteful associations for him to have at this time in America. Why? Well Lieberman wants to incite America to war with Iran, taking a page out of the Bush playbook of instilling fear in the general population. With rumors that he might very well be the VP running mate swirling around, Lieberman’s recent and misleading exaggerations seemed to have really upset Obama. One issue American Jews seem to be distrustful of Obama and mean Joe is trying to parlay that FEAR into voter points.
Lieberman has wasted no time in questioning Obama’s positions on Iran and Israel, two topics on which Lieberman and McCain agree. Just one day after Obama clinched his party’s nomination, Lieberman joined Republicans on a McCain campaign teleconference call assailing Obama following his foreign policy address to a leading Jewish group.
Obama is trying to convince Jewish voters he’s their friend, and mean Joe is telling them otherwise. It’s almost as bad as trying to convince the public he’s not Muslim, or that he stopped beating his wife who reportedly talked so disparagingly about white people. Disproving innuendo is a fruitless exercise. Perhaps that’s why Obama has the glare he does. Nevertheless Joe’s the point man for the McCain campaign’s foreign policy assault on Obama and there’s nothing anybody, including the Democratic establishment which “hopes” he doesn’t take things too far, can do about it. Let’s hope voters can see through this dog and pony show. I’m betting on the people, this time.
