Holy Joe and the Church of Doublespeak

Via Talking Points Memo; Joe Lieberman manages to talk out both sides of his mouth in the span of a single sentence:

"In fairness we don't know if Rev. Wright said these inflammatory, anti-American, racial comments every Sunday, but I would not continue to go to a synagogue where that kind of rhetoric was spoken," Lieberman said, adding, "I think it did raise questions in people's minds about why did he stay in the church that long," but he said he would "take (Obama) at his word" and move on.
