Comments on: Lieberman likens McCain to JFK http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/03/30/lieberman-likens-mccain-to-jfk/ All politics, all the time Tue, 22 Dec 2009 04:04:44 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: FEDUP http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/03/30/lieberman-likens-mccain-to-jfk/#comment-809246 FEDUP Sun, 30 Mar 2008 20:24:27 +0000 http://cnnpoliticalticker.wordpress.com/?p=6143#comment-809246 The man responsible for holding meetings on Al Qaeda in Afghanistan was too busy running for president to do anything else, including voting on the Iran issue. If he voted that would have meant taking a stand, which is not his MO. Obama would rather, Monday Morning Quarterback on the issues. His whole campaign has been on not voting on an issue he couldn't even vote on. He no doubt would have been absent if he could have voted, since he has missed 40% of the votes anyway. With his record as a State Senator is any indication, he would have missed that vote too, had he been able to vote.

Why make the comparison? McCain is McCain, Obama is Obama, and Hillary is Hillary - each one is unique ... and I bet some people will say ... I know Kennedy and McCain is no Kennedy as a reaction to this comment. I don't live during Kennedy's time, although I am aware of that many people have a fond memory of him. Why make the comparison?

Was the democratic party in 2000 the same as it was when Kennedy was president? What's his view on us entering in a war on false pretenses? I wish this presidential vice-president wannabe would return to the way he was in 2004 when he ran with Kerry. He seems to be opportunistic.

Talk about a politician who doesn't stand for anything except his own survival... Lieberman is a sad endorsement for McCain. Kennedy-McCain is the most ludicrous comparison I've ever heard.
