More quotes by Joe Lieberman
Shame on us if 100 years from now our grandchildren are living on a planet that has been irreparably damaged by Global Warming, and they ask, 'How could those who came before us, who saw this coming, have let this happen?'
Joe Lieberman
We cannot fulfill that purpose [environmentalism] if we are heaping contempt on God's creation.
Joe Lieberman
There are extensive contacts between Saddam Hussein's government and al Qaeda.
Joe Lieberman
I also urge the Obama administration - both on its own and in cooperation with other responsible governments around the world - to use all legal means necessary to shut down WikiLeaks before it can do more damage by releasing additional cables. WikiLeaks' activities represent a shared threat to collective international security.
Joe Lieberman
Today, we can see with our own eyes what global warming is doing. In that context it becomes truly irresponsible, if not immoral, for us not to do something.
Joe Lieberman
We need to ensure our men and women in uniform are equipped with the very best money can buy. We also have to make sure critical military technologies are developed in America and that the U.S. defense manufacturing base remains healthy and strong.
Joe Lieberman
Community means engaging constructively with like-minded nations to build strong, sustaining institutions and alliances - and bringing emerging powers into this community so future conflict becomes less likely.
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
Wes Clark put forward a middle-class tax plan, but it only helps a quarter of middle-class families, none without minor children at home. And mine helps 98 percent of the middle class.
Joe Lieberman
We must not condemn to frustration those whose job it is to protect us by failing to provide them with the necessary resources to meet the threats they face.
Joe Lieberman
I miss the days when faith was discussed in public and not the most intimate details of our personal lives.
Joe Lieberman
I'm worried that too many people, both in politics and out, don't appreciate the seriousness of the threat to American security and the evil of the enemy that faces us -more evil or as evil as Nazism and probably more dangerous than the Soviet communists we fought during the long Cold War.
Joe Lieberman
Global warming is not a conqueror to kneel before - but a challenge to rise to. A challenge we must rise to.
Joe Lieberman
In fact, five years ago, after Saddam ejected the UN inspectors, John McCain and I gave up on containment and introduced the Iraqi Liberation Act, which, when it became law, made a change of regime in Baghdad official US policy. You might therefore say that, when it comes to Iraq, President Bush is just enforcing the McCain-Lieberman policy.
Joe Lieberman
If the bill remains what it is now, I will not be able to support a cloture motion before final passage. Therefore I will try to stop the passage of the bill.
Joe Lieberman
The stronger our gun control laws are, the fewer acts of violence.
Joe Lieberman
John Adams, second president of the United States, wrote that our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. George Washington warned us never to indulge the supposition 'that morality can be maintained without religion.'
Joe Lieberman
Hollywood has glorified adult premarital sex, and that is unhelpful if your goal is to reduce teen pregnancy and out-of-wedlock births.
Joe Lieberman
I'm a Harry Truman, JFK, Scoop Jackson and Bill Clinton Democrat.
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.
