Finally! A Democrat that I can have some respect for. Sen. Joe Lieberman has come out in public support for President Bush insofar as not trying to set an artificial time table for withdrawal of troops in Iraq.
I'm sure that Mr. Lieberman was fully cognizent of how his statements would be viewed by the majority of members of his party, yet he had the courage of his principles to put those principles ahead of partisan posturing.
There are many issues where I oppose Mr. Lieberman, but I must acknowledge and applaud his courage in his actions in this case. I would almost go far as to support him should he choose to run for his party's nomination, as it seems that the majority of Republicans are too spineless to do what is right, instead of what is politically expedient.
