Biden's Lies

10/15/2012

I decided I wasn’t done with Joe Biden yet. Last week I dissected his performance and demonstrated that the whole debate was nothing but an act; an attempt to do nothing but paint Romney and Ryan as liars and incompetents. It failed, as all anyone is talking about is Joe Biden’s antics. Jay Leno and Saturday Night Live are thanking God for Joe Biden right now.

But, the more I though about the more I couldn’t let Joe off so easy. Because not only was his smirking, laughing, and gesticulating unprofessional and immature, he sat there and lied to the American people, and only talk radio is calling him on it.

Let’s start with this quote after the moderator asked about the killing of Chris Stephens in Libya and Paul Ryan pointing out that the embassy had inadequate (to say the least) security.

“Well, we weren’t told they wanted more security there. We did not know they wanted more security again.”  ---Joe Biden

First, they need to be told that on the anniversary of 9-11, the first anniversary of 9-11 after the killing of Bin Laden, a fact Obama trumpets every time foreign policy is brought up, in a city with known Al Qaeda activity, that beefed up security is needed? Who shows these mental giants where the bathrooms are at? Perhaps, instead of going on Letterman or The View Obama should attend the security briefings that he routinely ignores.

But, it doesn’t stop at incompetence. The very day before the Vice Presidential debates a congressional hearing was conducted on the actions in Benghazi and Eric Nordstrom, the former chief security officer for the American Embassy in Libya said that;

“his request to extend the deployment of an American military team was thwarted by the State Department’s Department of Diplomatic Security.”

The White House claims it wouldn’t have done any good. I so trust their judgment on this matter over the guy in charge of keeping those American’s safe.

Staying on the subject of the tight grasp the Obama administration has on the Middle East, we have this quote from Joe Biden.

“When my friend talks about fissile material, they have to take this highly enriched uranium, get it from 20 percent up, then they have to be able to have something to put it in. There is no weapon that the Iranians have at this point”

Biden is conceding that Iran is going to get to the point of having the fissionable material. This is a complete failure of the Obama administration. Obama has talked

Biden's Performance

10/13/2012

It took me a day or so to digest the things said and to come to my conclusions from the Vice Presidential debate of Thursday. The obvious thing that everyone was talking about was Joe Biden’s performance. His thoughts and those of Congressman Ryan on the issues are on the back burner. What people are talking about is Joe Biden’s performance.

Democrats are lauding him and Republicans are condemning him for his boorish, petty behavior and his constant interruptions. These debates are supposed to be about an exchange of ideas, giving the voters a chance to see where each candidate stands and to hear a rebuttal about what the other side is proposing. Vice President Biden seemed to be working against that. Then it hit me. Of course he is. This was a contrived performance. Joe Biden was an actor on stage. In the high stakes situation for the future of America, Joe Biden chose to become Alec Baldwin.

An acting performance by the man next in line to lead the free world.  How else do you explain the complete lack of civility and decorum, the dismissive laugh, and Biden’s extra large Polident smile from the very first answer Ryan gave? Every mannerism was meant to convey the idea that Ryan was not to be taken seriously. It was evident in Biden’s condescending way in which he called Ryan “my friend”, his cartoonish waving of his arms, and the ever-present interruptions.

Why this performance and why now?  He didn’t use this tactic with Sarah Palin four years ago. There are three reasons why Biden used every arrow in his quiver to try to paint Ryan as a liar, insincere, and wrong.

The first is that the Obama record on foreign policy and the economy is dismal. Facing someone who is as knowledgeable about the issues as Paul Ryan is, scares the Obama team to death. Towards the last part of the debate Biden challenged Ryan’s plan to cut tax rates and preserve middle class deductions at the same time. Biden says it’s not mathematically possible. Ryan says it is and begins his explanation by listing those administrations that have done it in the past. When he mentions Kennedy, Biden says “So now you’re Jack Kennedy?” Nice zinger, but the point was to derail Ryan’s rebuttal. It worked and Ryan never finished his explanation. And it was that way the whole debate. Every chance Biden got to stop Ryan from explaining the Romney/Ryan position, he took.

Reason number two is their record. Unemployment finally dipped down to the same level it was when Obama took office, gas prices have nearly doubled in that time, five trillion more in debt, the failed stimulus, the unpopular ObamaCare legislation, going around Congress to take out the work requirements for welfare and to give amnesty to 30 year old “children” of illegal immigrants, the doubling of the number of people on food stamps, our Libyan ambassador was killed, Obama’s Hot Mic incident with Russian

    Why this Blog?

    I'm 55, conservative and sincerely hope that my blog can make a difference. I think the Democrat Party has been taken over by America haters, career victims, and those who believe that the federal government should be your daddy. I'm looking to give those who vote for the "D" no matter what, something to think about.
