RedState: Conservative News and Community — ... and Hot Air for more. The former is wincing at the idea of Joe Biden - a man who is always ready to tell you how smart he is, and if that doesn't alarm you, nothing will - being the backup for Obama in a hypothetical crisis like this; the latter is helpfully reminding us that Kennedy's own test of foreign was an ...

Michelle Malkin — [image] Keep talkin’, Joe. God bless ya for telling the truth about your running mate’s dangerous inexperience. “Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. “It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, ...

Stop The ACLU — ... “I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate,” Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. “And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you - not financially to help him - we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him.

Hegseth: Right You Are, Joe
Articles on National Review Online — ... Obama to the Democratic nomination, is a clear signal to our enemies. The historical comparison to Kennedy is also apt. As Biden noted, both Obama and Kennedy are brilliant, yet completely untested on the global stage. Kennedy came to power amidst a bristling Cold War, and Obama would take the reigns during wartime. Kennedy met face-to-face with our enemies, and Obama has pledged to do the same. The question is then: Did Kennedy s approach work? As Ed Morrissey points out at HotAir , his oft-cited meeting with Nikita Khrushchev turned out to be, in Kennedy s words, an ...

BatesLine — Sen. Joe Biden has predicted that the callow youth at the top of his ticket would be tested by a "generated" international crisis, which, just as John F. Kennedy, whose obvious weakness gave Khrushchev the all-clear to wall off Berlin and plant missiles in Cuba , did, ...
