TheStar.com - Democratic frontrunner Dean pummelled by rivals in debate

"Dean, who shot to the top of Democratic polls with his unbending opposition to the war in Iraq, repeated his charge yesterday that the capture of ousted Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein has not made the U.S. safer. He pointed to the 23 American deaths in Iraq since Saddam was found at the bottom of a spider hole last month and the chaos in U.S. travel where fighter jets are escorting transatlantic flights.

Lieberman went after Dean on that claim. 'I don't know how anybody could say that we're not safer with a homicidal maniac, a brutal dictator, an enemy of the United States, a supporter of terrorism, a murderer of hundreds of thousands of his own people ... in prison instead of in power,' he said."

Bubba Lieberman should run as VP for Bubba Bush! What's he doing in a Democrats' debate, anyway?
