I thought he may have been right for once until I read this article:

The Back-Room Deal That Explains The Chaos In Iraq

http://www.businessinsider.com/the-back-room-deal-that-explains-the-chaos-in-iraq-2014-6

The Obama Admin was behind this disaster.

If Joe Biden is considered to be right about something, it means only one thing. We need to reconsider our former opinion.

[G Larry]

The reason it was a bad idea at the time was because it would have created coalitions that would threaten to divide Turkey and Syria.

[4Speed]

No, Joe was not right.

Iraq is being divided right now......as the ISIL in the North attacks the Malaki Iraq in the south.

How would division end up any different ? East Iraq attacking the West Iraq ?

[Cowboy Bob]

Who says that Politico is correct? They are just as daft as Biden.

[Rockitz]

I've thought that was the appropriate solution even before Biden ever mentioned it. I could probably accuse him of plagiarizing my idea. Why force people who hate each other to be part of the same team?

[Gluteus Maximus]

Oh, c'mon. As if the fact that there is not and never has been any critter called an "Iraqi" wasn't completely obvious to anybody with even a passing familiarity with the area.

There are Shias, Sunnis, Kurds, Turkomens, Chaldean Christians and on and on living in the area, but there is no such thing as an "Iraqi."

Only a blithering idiot could have seriously entertained the notion that a bunch of Muslims with their many ethnic and clan and ideological divisions could ever hope to establish and maintain the sort of civil society institutions upon which Western democratic freedoms stand.

Only a willfully blind fool could ever have imagined that Islam is in any way compatible with democracy. Islam is to its core inimical to democracy, science, progress.

But our last two drooling idiots in the Oval Office insisted that Islam is a "religion of peace". Who could actually believe that crap? You really have to have been educated at an Ivy League school like W. and Bambi to be capable of the conscious self-deception such a patent lie requires.

Going into Iraq was probably the greatest blunder in the history of our foreign policy. It was obvious to any rational person in 2003 that Saddam, stinker that he was, served the important purpose of keeping a lid on the Brit-created pressure cooker they call "Iraq." It was obvious that he had nothing to do with 911. So they made up the whole WMD lie. Nice going, scumbags. You spent a few trillion bucks that we don't have and got a bunch of our people killed or wounded. For nothing.

That's why I have equal loathing for both Rats and Rinos. Fools and villains, all of them.
