Biden was politically astute. The war in Iraq made George W. Bush — and the Republican Party in general — less popular than syphilis among American voters by 2006.

Sure. Political expediency always works better than actually protecting the country. Never knew my fellow conservatives were so gutless.

After 9/11 Biden said that Afghanistan should be bombed, then bombed again. But no boots on the ground. After Bush II’s invasion of Iraq Biden said that Iraq should be divided into three separate nations: one for the Kurds, one for the Shias, and one for the Sunnis.

Biden was right each time. (Oh, how it pains me to say that.)
