It doesn't matter whether he has read it - the MSM and voters he is speaking to haven't, and are waiting to form their opinions based on the soundbites Biden provides for them. ;)
Mort Kondrache mad a great point yesterday on Brit's show. He said the Dems love clamoring about how Afghanistan should be the center piece on the WOT, that Iraq was a distraction and Bush lacked a plan on winning in Iraq yet when given the opportunity to offer a concrete alternative they never say what they would do. He said that if the Dems were really serious about a "change in course" they should suggest we redeploy our troops out of Iraq by years end and send them to Afghanistan to crush the Taliban and Al-Qaeda. Then he admitted that would never happen because of the antiwar movement within their party.
"Don't ya love how the libs all embraced Afghanistan AFTER the major battles were won and the Taliban driven out?! There are tons of sound bites out there (someone needs to resurrect them) of Dems and the media cyring "Quagmire!" not long after we went in."
Biden can read simple english- at least well enough to copy what he reads- so that rules him out IMHO.
Schumer though, now there's someone with the gravitas of a real idiot.
The administration should run this letter or a version of it as a Wall St editorial.
I'd also like to see a reprise of Dem comments about thousands and thousands (50K ?) of body bags before we went into Iraq ... and yet, they are having a countdown to get to the same number as killed on 9/11 ... after 3+ years of war.
Senator Biden needs a basic refresher course in geography.
The reality is that not even a million troops could successfully search out all those mountains in Afghanistan and Pakistan to find bin Laden and his cronies.
The president did the best he could, and we are still there fighting and winning.
The democrats would have us lose the war. In a more rational time, their behavior would have been called treason.
Pretty much for the last six months to a year. Afghanistan is as dangerous now as it was during our initial invasion, if not more so. It's statistically as dangerous as Iraq, for U.S. troops, which is a new development. The news out of there has been increasingly bad, and I know a number of people over there now who attest that it's a bad scene.
That said, Biden is sky high on crack cocaine if he thinks that anyone, anywhere believes the Democrats could do a better job. Just because you can criticize an obvious problem doesn't mean anyone trusts you to fix it.
One way to balance the federal budget is to have a pay per view event where Bidens treasonous hair plugs are pulled out one by one with a set of pliers.
Well according to his campaign way back when he was a candidate for president, he claimed to have been a straight A student in grade, high school and college. He also claimed to have received 4 degrees. When truth came forward, he was a low C and barely passed the law test. He's not even a good liar, that's how bad he is, and his mouth is always going. He reminds me of someone with a mistake between his brain and his mouth.
In the words of Napoleon.....
what an IDIOT....GOSH!!!!
my sister, one of the totalllllly uninformed.....
The most fun yesterday was watching Wesley Clark gas on about how the U.S. should talk to people before we start dropping bombs. Yeah, tell it to the Russians, Wes. You could have started World War III back during Kosovo if that Brit General hadn't put you in your place.
These are the same Dems who couldn't find Eric Rudolph for five years in a 150 mile radius around Atlanta.
