"the president has made something exquisitely clear to each of the generals: He said do not occupy any portion of that country that you are not confident within 18 months you're going to be able to turn over to the Afghans. Do not occupy what you cannot turn over."
If true that's extremely troubling. And it should be obvious to anyone with half a brain that if it is true you should keep your trap shut about it.
Joe Biden has become a parody of himself. During his laughable debate with Palin it was clear Biden has no idea what's going on. The supposed foreign policy expert showed a glaring lack of knowledge on basic statistics and facts. Seemingly unfazed by his own ignorance he lept from one mistake to another, rattling off numbers as if when Joe said something, it had to be true. The whole time he had this insolent smirk on his face as if he knew damn well he was the smartest guy in the room and it was just, well, beneath him to be humble about it. As it turns out, he was just making stuff up. "Homogenizing", as it were. Post election hasn't been much better. He's always been kind of a liar and a jerk but with his promotion to VP his comments can't be as readily dismissed as eccentricity by left-er pundits: "Oh, that's just Joe being Joe!" or ignored by an empathetic media. Instead we are forced to deal with the Vice President of the United States telling our enemies (and friends) exactly when, and to what degree, we will be jumping ship.
This is the guy supposedly handling economic oversight effort. Nobody messes with Joe, am I right?
And what does it say about Obama that he chose this guy to be his VP?
