Joe Lieberman ratchets up the McCain campaign rhetoric pushing for the bombing of Iran.

On right-winger Bill Bennett’s radio show this morning, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) expressed his openess to bombing Iran, saying that there is “an appeal to it.” Discussing the West Virginia primary results, Bennett praised what he claimed was Sen. Hillary Clinton’s (D-NY) transformation into his “style” of politician, which he said is someone who “throws down a shot of liquor and bombs Iran.”

    And did anyone follow up with a question as to just what, exactly, is the “appeal”?

    Doubtful, as it is assumed that everybody knows what the appeal is. The appeal is that it makes the big American phallus feel hard to bomb the shit out of somebody.

    Not just ‘somebody,’ Spider. Special kinds of people. Like, those who look, talk, live differently. Like, a lot differently. They’re ‘scary’

    Which is “anybody,” as long as you market them correctly beforehand.

    There is at least one person out there who could make a very impassioned case that bombing the shit out of San Francisco has “a certain appeal.”

    Wow, where did you get that photo!

    (Just wondering though, did Obama endorse Lieberman? I hope he learned his lesson…. I certainly knew what was going to happen when Lieberman went “independent.” And honestly, of all the lousy elections, Lieberman’s has touched on basically every crappy policy that has occurred in the US.)

    Talk about Luke and Darth…. Lieberman was Luke’s mentor in the Senate and in the DLC and in “post-partisan politics.” It will be life imitating art when we see Darth go to the Republican Convention to endorse Emperor Pal McSame as he has suggested he might do….

    Luke, I am your father.

    I fear they will actually start something before the election in order to win. October surprise and all that. The Democrats better have a plan to stop them.

    Does anyone know what that big growth is on the side of McCain’s face shown in the picture? You don’t usually see this view in pics but it is very noticeable here. Is this scar tissue from him having skin cancers removed?

    Talk about Luke and Darth

    Sith Lords always travel in pairs. One master and one apprentice.

    The appeal is that it makes the big American phallus feel hard to bomb the shit out of somebody.

    I am so sick and tired of being the Douchebag Frat boy of the world.

    That’s his cheek pouch, for storing cash from lobbyists.

    “Does anyone know what that big growth is on the side of McCain’s face shown in the picture?”

    That’s his freakishly oversized jaw muscle, developed to gigantic proportions through years of clenching his teeth in barely suppressed–and sometimes unsuppressed–rage.

    I thought he was just storing Joe Lieberman’s nuts for the winter.
