Lieberman Unable to Attend Restoring Courage Jerusalem Event

Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) will not be attending Glenn Beck’s Restoring Courage event in Jerusalem next week, a spokesperson for the senator said Friday.
“Because of a family commitment, Sen. Lieberman will regrettably not be able to attend the Restoring Courage rally which Glenn Beck and others are holding in Jerusalem, Israel on August 24,” a Lieberman spokesperson told Washington Jewish Week.
Lieberman first announced his intention to attend the event, schedule permitting, during an appearance on Beck’s Fox News show in June. In subsequent discussions, the senator’s attendance was never definite.
Lieberman, who is Jewish, was a longtime member of the Democratic Party before switching to become an independent. He has long been an ardent supporter and defender of Israel.
“Sen. Lieberman supports this event and wishes he could be there in person to express his support for a secure and free Israel, for Jerusalem as the undivided capital of Israel, and for a rock-solid U.S.-Israel relationship based on shared, eternal values and common current interests and enemies,” the spokesperson said.
Lieberman’s announcement comes one day after Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) told Beck the House Ethics Committee barred members of Congress from attending the event. On Friday, however, Walsh said that after a follow-up conversation with the Committee where he clarified the event’s purpose, he could be cleared to go.

I will take the opportunity to say I am sure there are a lot of places Glenn would rather be also. Because of the times and what is going on with Israel however there is no place that Glenn would be no matter what as he clearly sees the seriousness of the situation and was more than willing to be there standing alone if necessary. I really have a deep abiding respect for Glenn. He is very courageous and he is one of a very small number of people in the entire world willing to take action and stand up for righteousness.

DDG7: Lieberman supported McCain against Obama so when he now says he hasn‘t decided who he’ll support, why would you not believe it? Chances are he’s just waiting to see if the Republicans nominate someone he can stand. There is no basis for questioning what he says about this.

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 11:06pmI love Glenn, but never understood how or why he isolated himself from the rest of the talk radio universe. He has received virtually ZERO mention or support in this effort from others who could really help him – Hannity, Levin, Rusty Humphreys, Rush….It‘s like GB doesn’t exist to them. On the other hand, he ignores them as well, even once intentionally mispronouncing Mark Levin’s name when I know damned well Glenn knows all about him. I’m afraid GBTV will isolated him further. I wish him the best in his efforts, but he is all alone in them – and needlessly, in my view.

of course he might actually have a family commitment.

Report Post »Country Publius
Posted on August 19, 2011 at 10:28pmIt wouldn’t be difficult to gaze over the socio-political landscape and simply relegate Glenn to the existing collection of dooms-dayers like Marshall Applewhite, Jim Jones, Harold Camping and Al Gore, but it would require ignoring two points:
First – There’s no “money” or “power” in it for Glenn. In fact he’s pouring more of his own money into the effort than he currently has, and possibly more than he will be able to recoup.
…And Second – Where the others mentioned above have never uttered a prediction that has been accurate, Glenn has nailed every prediction he’s made during the past 5-years that I’ve been paying attention to him.
Prophet? …Perhaps not, but he’s immersed himself in every nook and cranny of history, and so far has outlined a remarkably accurate comparison of the parallels of today’s world situations with what has happened and has been repeated in the past.
For those who would casually dismiss Glenn’s accuracy over the last few years i would warn that (to quote Friedrich Hegel) “The only thing we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history.”
Don’t know about you, but that resistance to learning from history is pretty disturbing to me, and until we cast off that resistance, our future is imperiled.

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 6:26pmFunny that LIeberman cancels the day after someone else in congress is told he can’t go. Somehow I think the good Senator is feeling some heat from the left. What “family committment” just poped up all the sudden that he couldn’t go because of it. Sounds like he might be getting cold feet.

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 6:26pmLieberman is a liar. He calls himself and indepedent but is truly a liberal. He would betray his own people to make Obama happy. Truly disgusting.

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 6:34pmNo illness…or family commitment for that matter. The buzz is in the air regarding the enemies of Israel looking to take advantage of this event. They’re in fear for their lives…and somewhat in their favor is the belief that an attack might be called off if the “big names” are not there.
