Election 2008

The Biden-Gaff Machine goes into over drive -- and people will ignore it....

JOE D'OH PUTS O IN 'CRISIS' MODE - New York Post:

"Joe Biden warned that America's enemies would test Barack Obama with an
international crisis within six months if he's elected president - a shocking
comment John McCain eagerly pounced on yesterday to claim Obama isn't ready to
be commander-in-chief."

So basically what he is saying is:

A) Our 'enemies' see Obama as a weak President
B) Within 6 months we will have another terrorist attack
C) other countries are going to 'test' our power in the world
D) McCain wouldn't be challenged

Actually this doesn't surprise me -- it just seems to be the way of histoy that Democratic Presidents always seem to be the ones who get us into troubles.

Kennedy set things up so that Johnson had no choice but to go into VietNam ... then there was the whole Hostage situation during Carter .... and the first WTC bombings and the USS Cole under Clinton (and the failed attempt 10 months earlier -- oops, guess he should have paid attention to that one) ... Kennedy & Cuba & Viet Nam & the Berlin Wall ... Truman had China & Korea ... etc etc ... the list goes on.

Now this isn't to say the the Repubs haven't been 'tested' by enemies either, of course they did. Its just that most Presidents didn't get challenged until after they had been in office a couple of years ... now we have one that will be challenged straight out the gate??

Now FDR ... he really had no choice but to get us into WW2 - so I'm not going to count that one against them. It was morally right for him to get into that war.
