[The Loan Arranger]

I was under the impression that the executive branch (i.e., the president, state department, etc..) handled diplomacy and foreign affairs and that congress merely provided funds and oversight. Silly me, reading that darn outdated United States Constitution, and forgetting that it is a "living and breathing" document that "changes, grows and adapts" as the situation calls for it. No wonder Biden, Kerry, Boxer, Kennedy, Pelosi, Kucinich, and their ilk feel no constraints in what they do or say, they don't have to abide by the constitution....

Channel surfing during the campaign we saw Biden being interviewed, I believe by Charlie Rose, and he repeated the Kerry claims to have been meeting with European leaders who wanted President Bush out of office.

He further stated that he had met with Chriac, by name, and discussed getting boots on the ground in Iraq. There has been no follow up by anyone on this. Could his empathy for the Iranians also be connected to contacts with Chirac?

Biden is one of those greasy sleazy pols who remind one of the stereotypical used car salesman. (Comment not intended to denigrate used car salesmen)
