     Great !  we'll be tested - and remember, Biden is experienced in foreign affairs - he has some idea about that of which he speaks.  Sure, we survived the Cuban Missal Crisis... but, I think with the financial stuff going on, we're not in a position to be tested.  I'm conjuring up an image of the Perfect Storm.

     And Biden's remarks get better !!!!  we won't like what Barak does in the crisis testing!!!  What does that mean.......??  (1) He will turn over the country to the UN, or (2) He won't defend the country or (3) he'll discuss things without pre-conditions, instead?? (4) or he'll go to Rev Wright for advice????  Whaaaaaaat ???  

    Of course, as we post comments, the Barack campaign people have just let loose of Biden's mouth and the spin will begin..........."what I really meant, etc., etc., etc" 

    But, it's OUT - by his VP !

The Corner on National Review Online — Monday, October 20, 2008 [image] Re: Biden: Obama's Inexperience Will Prompt International Crisis [Ed Whelan] The Biden quote Rich links to is really remarkable.
