Biden on the Weighty Issues
Our Ambassador to Libya and three other U. S. nationals were slaughtered. Obama and the State Department refused to give them adequate security staffing.
The U. S. is seen in the region as a slipping super-power... This is resulting in destabalization, threats to allies, and a leadership vacuum that will lead to threats to peace elsewhere.
Russia and China are vetoing our attempts to get Iran in line. It may have the bomb in six months to a year, and ways to deliver it threatening Israel and Europe.
Tens of millions of U. S. Citizens are out of work, or are working for dimes on the dollar, compared to what they were earning four years ago. In Biden's own home town, the unemployment rate is 10%.
Medicare and Social Security are going broke. Ryan and Romney have a plan. Obama doesn't.
The Obama/Biden deficit spending is adding a trillion dollars to the U. S. debt each year.
Our military cuts are poised to destroy our defense industry, leaving us with fewer top rate defense contractors, and a military service on a par with our 1915 defense structure.
Obama/Biden have been a domestic failure. They have been a foreign policy failure. The nation is in serious decline.
I disagree that this debate won't move anyone in any direction.
First Obama wasn't serious. Now Biden thinks it's all a great big joke.
Folks, you're underestimating the damage Biden did to the ticket last night. If CNN and NBC are picking up on it, severe damage has been done.
