Biden to Supporters: "Gird Your Loins",
abcnews ^ | 10/20/08 | Matthew Jaffe

Posted on 10/20/2008 9:43:57 AM PDT by tomnbeverly

ABC News' Matthew Jaffe Reports: Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen. Barack Obama., D-Ill., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power and he will need supporters to stand by him as he makes tough, and possibly unpopular, decisions.

"Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. "It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."

"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. "And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."

Israel might have to attack Iran before Jan 20 if Obama is elected. He will *not* support Israel.

“If the people of this country elect him, then we deserve whatever “crisis” we get and we deserve his wrongheaded reaction to it. Elections matter and have consequences. Change is not always change for the better or the right change.”

I couldn’t agree more. Biden’s statement makes me sick to my stomach. I firmly believe that once our country stops supporting Israel, we are in trouble.

I have religious beliefs that tell me so, but even If I were an atheist, I would think the same thing. Having a shining light of Democracy in the Middle East is good for Western Civilization for multiple reasons.

If our country elects Obama, we deserve what he brings us.

Gives the phrase “all enemies foreign and domestic” a whole new meaning doesn’t it?

This is the worse of the comments..

Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."

So when he surrenders to Iran on Nukes...it won't be apparent he was right...god I love Joe Biden....:-)

It’s a real shame that nobody listens to or cares what Biden says.

Everyone’s been programmed to dismiss all his statements as crazy uncle loose again.

Only if Sarah or JTP says something is it news.

Well, let’s just hope that Biden doesn’t have to do the countdown to our missile launch. Thing’ll still be sitting on the pad when it goes off.

Obama's speech in Tampa I hope gets on youtube. He's bashing America again but wants their vote. Gosh, his rhetoric is passive-aggressive. That's it. He says he'll fix everything but be afraid of the future.

Is passive-aggressive themes from the Alinsky or the Ayers' playbook????? I bet you a nickel it's in one or the other!

Sorry but this Obama saying stuff right now that meshes with Biden's stern warning.

"And he's gonna need help.

Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."

Yeah, when he invites foreign "peacekeepers" into the US to quell the domestic disturbances after an attempted gun ban, "it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."

Either that, or when he abandons Israel (as many others have mentioned), then "it's not gonna be apparent that we're right." Not then, not after our allies stop trusting us, and not after the Lord of Hosts visits a little bit of retribution on us for selling out His people.

Hey, Joey Plugs, it is ALREADY apparent that you and the Manchurian Candidate aren't right. Why don't you quit while you're behind, while we can only speculate about what an utter disaster the two of you meatheads will be - quit before we find out for sure...because real people will have to pay the price of your stupidity and his, but you two will simply write books and make a few million bucks after the country promotes you to the private sector in a few years.

Can we label him the “Angry Black Man” or is that racist?

Bingo! Barack Obama's techniques to control a community are out of Alinsky's rules for radicals. Michelle Malkin explains. Maybe Joe Biden is using a passive-aggressive technique too? It seems likely.
