Man! This is your ranking foreign policy expert<\/a>? An experienced VP choice for Obama or his Secretary of State? Don’t any of your guys have a clue?<\/p>\n

Biden said the nation is less safe due to “the President and John McCain’s obsession on the war on terror” and criticized President Bush and Sen. McCain for “lumping together” the disparate factions in the region, evidence, he says, of their “profound confusion.”
\n[…]
\n“If John wants to know where the bad guys live, come back with me to Afghanistan,” Biden said. “We know where they reside. And it’s not in Iraq.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No, they don’t live there, they only go there to fight us and our military kicked their butt. And now that they’ve been defeated there, they’re redoubling their efforts in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

“If they can’t identify the enemy or describe the war we’re fighting, it’s very difficult to define whether we’ve won or lost,” Biden said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Maybe he needs to substitute the “they” for “we” because he’s speaking about himself. No wonder the Democrats can’t admit that the surge is working, they don’t understand the war that we’re fighting. They don’t understand that our military knows what enemy we’re fighting over there and it’s not just disgruntled Iraqis. It’s Iran and al Qaeda. Is he going to say that Petraeus doesn’t know who he’s fighting? That should be McCain’s reply.
\nBTW, Allah lists some of Bidens other words of wisdom<\/a>. Even your “experienced” people aren’t capable of getting this war on terror. I don’t think I’ll be flying again until 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
