Lieberman is sniping at Bush from a cozy position:

Democratic presidential hopeful Joseph Lieberman on Friday called President Bush's record on the environment an insult to the Republican Party.


“George Bush has been the worst president on the environment that we've had since the environmental movement began in the late ‘60s,” Lieberman said while touting his new energy plan at Don Weese's Complete Car Care service station.

“His administration has been an insult to the great Republican tradition of natural resource conservation that goes back to Teddy Roosevelt,” the Connecticut senator said, citing Bush's push to drill for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

Earlier this week, Lieberman released the details of an energy plan that calls for eliminating the nation's dependence on foreign oil, saying that doing so is vital to national security, environmental protection and maintaining a strong economy.

His plan favors relies heavily on lowering the amount of fuel used by vehicles and an emerging process for turning coal into pollution-free hydrogen.

Lieberman is a great politician. He understands that you cannot attack Bush on foreign policy at this point, so slam him on an issue that most people believe the Dems are better at, protection of the environment. I think Bush has got to go against the Republican stream and call for better fuel efficiency for all vehicles from automakers. This would take some of the Democrats issues away and is just good policy.
