Since 2001 over 1700 of our American war fighters have been killed and almost 15,000 have been wounded in Afghanistan. It has been a brutal slug fest with our forces squaring off every day against one particular enemy: The Taliban.
In August the Taliban shot down a Chinook helicopter costing the lives of thirty members of the elite Seal Team Six.
The feeling in the Intelligence Community was that this attack was carried out with help from spies on the ground and it was “payback” for the team’s involvement in the killing of bin Laden. How did the Taliban know Seal Team Six was the unit that killed their hero? Our idiot Vice President Joe Biden told them so.
Shortly after the bin Laden kill Idiot Joe said this at a formal ceremony, “Let me briefly acknowledge tonight’s distinguished honorees. Admiral James Stavridis is a, is the real deal. He can tell you more about and understands the incredible, the phenomenal, the just almost unbelievable capacity of his Navy SEALs and what they did last Sunday.”
Defense Secretary Robert Gates’ directive that no one reveal the unit’s exact identity meant nothing to Biden. To the Democrats this is just “Joe being Joe.”
Now Jackass Joe has outdone himself with his latest bray telling Newsweek, “Look, the Taliban per se is not our enemy. That’s critical. There is not a single statement that the president has ever made in any of our policy assertions that the Taliban is our enemy because it threatens U.S. interests. If, in fact, the Taliban is able to collapse the existing government, which is cooperating with us in keeping the bad guys from being able to do damage to us, then that becomes a problem for us.”.....

He is dumb and just does not care — and I think it is part of the Obama plan to “vaporize” the war on terror. The present feeling is that Obama is trying to make it look like the Taliban are not a factor that he has to deal with and thus make it easier to declare the “war on terror” over. Especially since the death of Bin Laden (which Obama really had little to do with).
So these two lefty thugs stand up and say the Taliban are really our friends....as if any sane American, especially our military, believe them. Just another part of the Obama plan to synthesize an “accomplishment” that never happened.
The living lies continue and will not stop until after 2012.
Ron Paul believes the same as Biden.
Too bad they won't use it.
Since Biden is a good Democrat, this gaffe/idiotic statement will be glossed over.
In far of being called bad names I refuse to say who I think set up Seal Team 6.
But it came from up high.
Is this a trick question?
Also, Biden was chosen since the Clintons didn’t want Hillary to accept the VP nomination. For the Clintons, it had to be the presidency or nothing. No way could the Clintons be in the shadow of Obama.
You might be on to something...
Biden is an a$$
You win a seegar for quote of the day.

I only wish he were dumb. One of the most stupid is more like it.
“Look, the Taliban per se is not our enemy. That’s critical.”
He’s probably repeating what he’s heard Obama say at briefing after briefing. Sounds stupid to us, but might be a hint as to the real Obama foreign policy.
That is very defining of the Obama Administration.
I guess we can decipher who really is the enemy(to them).
“Since Biden is a good Democrat, this gaffe/idiotic statement will be glossed over.”
Yes, it was difficult to find a Democrat more stupid than Hussein.
Not only CAN he be that ignorant ... he IS that ignorant.
Hint Hell, that is the condensed version of our foreign policy.
