[Read the article: Lieberman's unusual take on "the facts"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It's a shame to see so much partisan back-slapping on here. I am not a Joe Lieberman fanboy, but Mr Benen's assessment is clearly that of an individual who will selectively, depending on affiliation, take some sort of hyperbolic statement by a politician--intended to make a point through exaggeration--seriously so that he might be able to play the "offensive" or "irresponsible" card. I would love to see his reaction to a similar statement by a real Democrat. When I come to Salon, I prefer to see thoughtful assessment of the news, not side-taking and name-calling. I am not a conservative person, and definitely not a Republican, but I can look to any pseudo-commentator with a blog to hear criticism of cherry-picked mishaps. Let's hear something intellectual here on Salon, please.
