More quotes by Joe Lieberman
Senator Barack Obama is a gifted and eloquent young man who I think can do great things for our country.
Joe Lieberman

That's not censorship. That's common sense.
Joe Lieberman

Joe Lieberman
The difference in this town - here in Washington - on the war is not between Democrats and Republicans it's between people who believe essentially we've already lost in Iraq and it's time to get out - and most of the rest of us.
Joe Lieberman
It (Lewinskygate) has...compromised his moral authority
Joe Lieberman
The stronger our gun control laws are, the fewer acts of violence.
Joe Lieberman
I have a reputation for giving unpopular answers at Democratic debates. I never used marijuana. Sorry!
Joe Lieberman
I am genuinely an Independent. I agree more often than not with Democrats on domestic policy. I agree more often than not with Republicans on foreign and defense policy. I'm an Independent.
Joe Lieberman
Dear Mr. President: ... We urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraq sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.
Joe Lieberman
I mean, accidents happen. You learn from them and you try to make sure they don't happen again.
Joe Lieberman
I've spent the last year listening to Americans, and the state of the union that George W. Bush lives in is very different from the state that most hardworking Americans are living in.
Joe Lieberman
