... [Lieberman] doesn't get it. The fact is that we were attacked on 9/11 by Al Qaeda and its affiliates and its sympathizers, not by Saddam Hussein. And unfortunately Senator Lieberman has supported the Bush Administration’s disastrous strategic approach of getting us stuck in Iraq instead of focusing on those who attacked us. I mean, look at the places that have been attacked: India, Morocco, Turkey, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Somalia, Spain, Great Britain. What does this have to do with Iraq? And Senator Lieberman is stuck on that point...-- Sen. Russ Feingold on ABC's This Week. Feingold is contributing to Dem nominee Ned Lamont.

More Feingold ignorance on display.
A democratic Iraq working to fight terrorism is substantially better than the dictatorship Saddam Hussein supporting global terrorism.
This is not a time for ruby-slippers and dreamy-deadlines for a pull-out. The honest question is; where is the next front?
We used to pretend that the Middle East 'troubles' could be negotiated and calmed by diplomacy. Those days really are over.
The war is global and real. More than that it is for peace.
The trouble with Feingold is that he is more interested in winning a presidential election then he is in winning this war on Islamofascists.
There is no place in this global war for Neville Feingold
If we hadn't gone into Iraq first, we would have been there sooner or later. They shared one thing with their bitter enemy Iran and so many of their neighbors: the destruction of the west.
For long-term security, I am glad Russ is on the stage. He is the embodiment of the stark difference between the fantasies of the peace-movement and the reality of the dangerous world.
You can run and hide and continue deluding yourself.
Have at it.
Thankfully, there are plenty who can take the place of the weak. They will help us win in the end.
Who knows, maybe even you and Christoff will wake up and figure this out one day soon.
Chuckle, chuckle...
And Badgervan -- the idea that we need to stop "spreading democracy" to "soverign countries" is beyond hiilarity.
Yup... go Russ go.... these are your people. A very small percentage of the masses, but they are yours buddy.

You are weak. You don't care about liberty, you don't care about our nations security and you don't really care about freedom.
Thanks for your service, but you learned nothing from it.
I am willing to die to defend your cut-and-run views. I would have expected that from a dedicated serviceman who took the oath, but you are a vetran who is abdiacting that role - I would do it for you despite my complete disagreement with your dim-witted views.
As for your comments on the 60% - you are flat out wrong, misguided and unable to read a poll.
I am here for you buddy - cut and run like scared girl, and I will fend off the bad guys for you. What a waste of miliatary training you are.
Go ahead Sherman - back Feingold be a pussy and a coward and I will continue to have unwanted sex with Major Houlihan.
I am willing to serve and the age, lucky for me has gone up.
I am willing to protect you and may very well end up doing so.
Xout = coward.
