Desparation is Unbecoming, Joe

On the eve of the latest Quinnipiac poll showing Ned Lamont pulling ahead of Joe Lieberman in the CT primary, 54-41, Joe started singing a very different tune on Iraq:

"I supported our war in Iraq but I have always questioned the way it was being executed," Lieberman said.

"This administration took far too many shortcuts. We continue to suffer the consequences, as do the Iraqi people."

Interesting choice of words from the man who went out of his way to tell us all this:

It’s time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge that he will be the commander in chief for three more critical years and that in matters of war we undermine presidential credibility at our nation’s peril.

It seems undermining the president's credibility is practically treasonous, but undermining the president's competence is OK. Got that? All clear?
