BIDEN ON IRAQ

[FUZO]

TweetIn Washington, U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Joseph Biden (D-Del.) said yesterday that “there probably will be a war with Iraq.”

“The only question is, is it alone, is it with others and how long and how costly will it be?” he said on NBC’s Meet the Press.

The chances that Hussein would surrender his suspected weapons of mass destruction are very low, and “we have no choice but to eliminate that threat,” Biden said. “I think Saddam either has to be separated from his weapons or taken out of power.”

More:

Biden in October of 2002: “We must be clear with the American people that we are committing to Iraq for the long haul; not just the day after, but the decade after.”

Biden, on Obama’s Iraq plan in August 2007: “I don’t want [my son] going [to Iraq],” Delaware Sen. Joe Biden said from the campaign trail Wednesday, according to a report on Radio Iowa. “But I tell you what, I don’t want my grandson or my granddaughters going back in 15 years and so how we leave makes a big difference.” Biden criticized Democratic rivals such as Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama who have voted against Iraq funding bills to try to pressure President Bush to end the war. “There’s no political point worth my son’s life,” Biden said, according to Radio Iowa. “There’s no political point worth anybody’s life out there. None.”

Biden to the Brookings Institution in 2005: “We can call it quits and withdraw from Iraq. I think that would be a gigantic mistake. Or we can set a deadline for pulling out, which I fear will only encourage our enemies to wait us out — equally a mistake.”

Oh, and lets not forget about his foreign policy ah, cough….excellence….cough.

I’m sure more will come out about Biden in the days ahead but in the end we have to ask how did we get so lucky to have a man like Obama picked as the Democrat nominee? The man is a walking disaster.

Joe Biden as VP……wow

Two words to Barack….Thank you!
