Connecticut's Democratic Senator Lieberman on the War Against Terror:
Like it or not ... we are all targets of the terrorists. We are all in this together. And to win it with the least amount of cost and human lives and national treasure, we've got to find ways to set aside our differences and put our country's safety first.
Lieberman made the remark in a speech at Fairfield University and criticized those who accuse Democratic critics of the Iraq war of encouraging terrorists, arguing such talk "demeans the freedom we are all fighting for."
Senator Lieberman, who is running for reelection as an independent after losing a primary challenge to Greenwich millionaire and anti-war candidate Ned Lamont, has previously criticized fellow Democrats who complained about President Bush's war policies:
It is time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge that he will be commander in chief for three more critical years, and that in matters of war we undermine presidential credibility at our nation's peril.
