From the link I provided....

This was a story from February 11, 2010... it’s in the second paragraph. That’s what makes it fun... he was sooooooo wrong. Of course the MSM and New York Times will ‘miss’ this strange and totally wrong prediction.

BIDEN: I am very optimistic about Iraq. I think it’s gonna be one of the great achievements of this administration. You’re gonna see 90,000 troops come marching home by the end of the summer. You’re gonna see a stable Iraq that is actually moving toward a representative government…I’ve been impressed by how they’ve been deciding to use the political process rather than guns to settle their differences.”

That was February 11, 2010. A couple of years later, US troops are gone but Iraq is anything but stable. Islamists are successfully taking over its major cities and are on the verge of threatening Baghdad.
