According to The Havana Note the Junior Senator from Connecticut has promised to seek a pardon for terrorist Eduardo Arocena. http://thehavananote.com/2008/07/lieberm an_to_seek_pardon_for_m.html
"Before addressing a pro-McCain event in Florida on July 20, 2008, Senator Joe Lieberman was recorded on video telling Miriam Arocena, wife of Eduardo Arocena, the Federally-convicted leader of the Cuban-American terrorist group Omega 7, that he will carry back to Washington her request for a Presidential pardon for her husband. Arocena is serving a mandatory life sentence and was convicted on 25 Federal counts in New York and 24 counts in New York."
I urge you to read the entire piece in The Havana Note.
In an op ed piece in Monday's New York Times Barck Obama defines his position on Iraq. He begins with:
THE call by Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki for a timetable for the removal of American troops from Iraq presents an enormous opportunity. We should seize this moment to begin the phased redeployment of combat troops that I have long advocated, and that is needed for long-term success in Iraq and the security interests of the United States.
