Isn't this a Hillary moment?

"Aw jeez, not this $#it again!"

[icwhatudo]

and so it begins...

Thinking about it now, he said, a more accurate comment would have been: “I was near where a shot landed.”

Well, in that case, I've been to outer space, since I was "near" where the space shuttle landed. What a liar he is. Typical dem.

[hsalaw]

“Unfortunately, it fits into his profile, and that’s exactly why he should be terribly careful about statements that may not quite parse out or deconstruct under scrutiny.”

I think if we parse out and deconstruct this statement, this guy's calling Biden a liar. But why use three words when 30 will do?

“Isn’t this a Hillary moment?”

Close but not quite unfortunately. At least he had fire in the vicinity. This was an exaggeration. Clinton just flat lied.

Dishonesty fits into the “ends justif means” thinking of a corrupt leftist. “Could have been shot at” is just as significant as “was shot at” when you’re a great humanitarian...

Democrat ticket ... Bullsh*t Bill & Captain Chickensh*t ...

From the article:

"Patrick Campbell, legislative director for Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, said Biden should be careful about how he describes his experiences, especially when making political points."

“Veterans don’t like it when people mischaracterize their service, people who overstate what happens to them,” he said.

“We have names for them.”

“No one got up and ran from the room—it wasn’t that kind of thing,” he said. “…It’s not like I had someone holding a gun to my head.”

Nor is it like he had a brain in his head...I wonder what good it would do to hold a gun there? Funny, though, no one can corroborate or no one else can remember these incidents. Especially odd, since it was obviously “seared into his memory.....”

He’s plagiarizing again..

[HIDEK6]

Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.) — whose garrulous ways have led to a number of verbal gaffes over the years — has revised a dramatic comment that he was “shot at” in the Green Zone during a trip to Iraq.

That would have been Hillary and Chelsea. I understand that they cheated death by doing the serpentine move, then picked up two machine guns from blown-up Marine emplacements and charged the Taliban, killing 46 of them.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Sometimes, one’s own flatulence can be mistaken for a gun shot. Sometimes it can even be mistaken for machine gun fire. Knowing Biddy like we do, I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

[RDTF]

and betcha he ducked

[Defiant]

Biden described three incidents on two separate Iraq trips in which he felt that he was shot at or might have been shot at. Only one of them took place inside the Green Zone, he said, and involved a “shot” landing outside the building where he and other senators were staying. He added that the vehicle he was traveling in the day before might also have been hit.

What's the problem, LBJ got a Medal of Honor for less than that.

[Psycho_Bunny]

Shite’ de la bulle’

[river rat]

What should frighten folks, is that this fool Biden has been on the public payroll in IMPORTANT positions for too many decades!!!

Time to fire the incompetent, lying clown.

[Kiss Me Hardy]

That’s some knife-carrying dawg, pardner!
