Gates slams Biden in new memoir

The Hill ^

[oldbrowser]

A twofer, knock down possible contender Biden and promote Hillary.

[Boiler Plate]

Since when does plagiarism equal integrity?

This appears to be a ‘get Biden out of the way’ support Hillary move, with something in it for him in the end. I would sooner trust a scorpion in my sleeping bag than any of these political hacks.

This is not news to us Freepers. Biden has always been a joke. Not funny though, when he is helping to bring our country down.

[WayneS]

So then you’re saying Biden is stupid.

Okay. Now tell me something I don’t know.

[PGR88]

saying Biden has been wrong on "nearly every" major foreign policy and national security issues for the past 40 years.

Gates is stealing my words with attribution! I have always said - whatever Biden proposes, doing the exact opposite is the correct course.

[ex-snook]

How about Kerry? He has made more effort in one year than Hilliary did in four.

Gates described Clinton in “the sort of glowing terms that might be used in a political endorsement," Woodward wrote. “I found her smart, idealistic but pragmatic, tough-minded, indefatigable, funny, a very valuable colleague, and a superb representative of the United States all over the world,” Gates writes.

The rehabilitation of HRH by the overlords continues.

Nailed it!

Funny, the same story on Drudge has the title as Gates slams Obama.

[Boogieman]

“Gates calls Biden “a man of integrity,” but questions his judgment”

So, he might mean well, but he’s dumber than a box of rocks.

[SERKIT]

Biden: Often wrong, never in doubt. What a maroon.

[PGR88]

On the Osama bin Laden raid, Gates writes that he initially opposed the operation, but eventually decided it was “one of the most courageous decisions I had ever witnessed in the White House.”

I simply can not understand any of these political hacks who calls the decision to go on the bin Laden raid "courageous." It was f***ing money in the bank, even if it were to somehow fail. for good measure, once OBL's body was out, I would have dropped a couple 2000 lb bombs on the house, and left a crater the size of football field as a final gesture to the Pakistan Gov't.

If one is working hard to do exactly the wrong things, is that a good thing?

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Hillary or no Hillary....after Obama.....Joe Biden is the dumbest human being in the universe!!! As for Gates.....I agree with his assessment of Obama being a dummie....but IMHO....when that occurred...Gates should have publically handed in his resignation!!! Problem solution....defeat all Democrats and RINOs, come November, 2014!!!

[Boogieman]

Even if it was courageous, it’s no credit to Obama, who was on the golf course when someone else made the decision for him.

[ex-snook]

"If one is working hard to do exactly the wrong things, is that a good thing?"

Well Kerry working for peace in Iran and Israel sounds like the right thing. I wish the GOP was working on it.
