HANOVER, N.H. Joe Biden painted a vivid scene for the 400 people packed into a college meeting hall. A four-star general had asked the then-vice president to travel to Kunar province in Afghanistan, a dangerous foray into godforsaken country to recognize the remarkable heroism of a Navy captain.
Some told him it was too risky, but Biden said he brushed off their concerns. We can lose a vice president, he said. We cant lose many more of these kids. Not a joke.
The Navy captain, Biden recalled Friday night, had rappelled down a 60-foot ravine under fire and retrieved the body of an American comrade, carrying him on his back. Now the general wanted Biden to pin a Silver Star on the American hero who, despite his bravery, felt like a failure.
He said, Sir, I dont want the damn thing! Biden said, his jaw clenched and his voice rising to a shout. Do not pin it on me, Sir! Please, Sir. Do not do that! He died. He died!
The room was silent.

“I honestly do not think Biden is lying. It is worse. He cannot tell the difference between the real world and the world in his head.”
the other possibility is that Bidn has been so used to making up stuff with impunity for decades in front of small audiences, that he doesn’t fully understand that practically everyone on the planet now has asmart phones that contains a vid camera with the result that every public word and every public action is nearly instantly available to all of the billions who watch the internet, and that therefore there is no such thing as a lie told to a small public group that stays just with that group ...

If you think it’s a whitewash try watching the video with it
Same thing they did to him In 1988 they took him out with the kinnock plagerism side by side.
