Yes, Lieberman is still a Democrat: he's discovered the spirit of togetherness in a campfire, marshmallow toasting, sharing kind of way:
But Lieberman said Friday, in an interview with editors of several Hersam-Acorn newspapers, that he has benefited since the election from the new spirit of nonpartisanship in Washington promoted by President Barack Obama.
He jokingly referred to it as "Kumbayama," connecting "Kumbaya," the title of a spiritual song about togetherness, with the president’s name.
Kumbanaya, as defined in Wikipedia:
"Kumbaya" (also spelled Kum Ba Yah) is a spiritual song from the 1930s. It enjoyed newfound popularity during the folk revival of the 1960s and became a standard campfire song in Scouting and other nature-appreciative organizations.
The song was originally associated with human and spiritual unity, closeness and compassion, and it still is, but more recently it is also cited or alluded to in satirical, sarcastic or even cynical ways that suggest blind or false moralizing, hypocrisy, or naively optimistic views of the world and human nature.[1]
Senator Lieberman was the recent co-author of this editorial, along with McCain explain the importance of 'winning the war in Afganistan
(That) is why it is so important for the president to reject the temptations of minimalism in Afghanistan and instead adopt a fully resourced, comprehensive counterinsurgency strategy, backed by an unambiguous American commitment to success over the long term. In doing so, he must invest the political capital to remind Americans why this fight is necessary for our national security, speak openly and frankly to our nation about the difficult path ahead, and -- most of all -- explain clearly to our fellow citizens why he is confident that we can prevail.
Prevail? What is the opposite of minimalism, Senator? Maxi-bombing?
I don't believe you have ever defined what 'winning' is in Iraq, but that's not important.
Isn't it just zippy that you have a whole new country to try those failing tactics with?
