Reasons not to vote for Lieberman and Kerry.
Joe Lieberman primes the pump for the Media Whores to start a "Dean is an anti-semite" smear.
Former Vermont governor Howard Dean and Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (D-Conn.) clashed sharply here tonight in a lively debate among the Democratic presidential candidates, with Lieberman asserting that Dean would reverse half a century of U.S. policy in the Middle East and Dean accusing his rival of demagoguery.
Dean denied that his recent comment saying the United States should not take sides in the Middle East represented a shift in U.S. policy, but Lieberman accused him of abandoning American values by turning away from longtime ally Israel.
"It doesn't help, Joe, to demagogue this issue," Dean said. "We're all Democrats; we need to beat George Bush so we can have peace in the Middle East."
Saying Dean was wrong in asserting that his statements put him in the same place as former president Bill Clinton, Lieberman replied, "Howard Dean's statements break a 50-year record in which presidents . . . have supported our relationship with Israel based on shared values."
[snip]
Lieberman and Kerry both attacked Dean on Monday for his comments on Israel. They said that, if Dean is serious, his stance would represent a radical departure from decades of U.S. policy that has tilted toward Israel. Kerry repeated that criticism this afternoon before television cameras. Dean said that while the United States long has had an important alliance with Israel, the situation in the Middle East demands that it take a more evenhanded approach to the region
Lieberman and Kerry can't beat Dean on energy or ideas, so they take the Rove-ian road.
Swell.
