Joe Bidens’ Warning:
Barack Obama will face an international crisis early in his presidency, Joe Biden warns, fueling Republican charges that the Democratic presidential candidate’s own running mate admits Obama is a blank slate in the face of coming national security threats.
Speaking in Seattle on Sunday, Biden said he could guarantee that the world will want to find out if Obama is up to the job, which he assured voters he is.
“Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking,” Biden said.
“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, to test the mettle of this guy. And he’s gonna have to make some really tough — I don’t know what the decision’s gonna be, but I promise you it will occur. As a student of history and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you it’s gonna happen,” Biden continued.
The Delaware senator’s remarks were the second of their kind over the weekend. At a fundraiser in San Francisco, Biden said Obama’s challengers will “find out this guy’s got steel in his spine” when he is tested.

I dont think the terrorist will wait 6 months to attack. They know Obama is a pacifist and will not do anything militarily. He probabbly would bomb an aspirin factor in the middle of the night. The islamofascist will have a field day for 4 years.

Tom, Aspirin factory ? hmmm that sounds familiar. Yes, we have much
to fear with an Obama presidency. Just the thought of a communist being
elected President, is enough to fear for Americas’ future. Just think what
will happen with a democrat Congress and Senate and 2 or 3 liberal
Supreme Court Justices. That’s more than enough for us to have fear for
the future of the country.

Yes we have bombed the dangerous aspirin factory before. The Supreme Court appears to be safe because a lib would replace a retiring lib. If a conservative dies suddenly then we are screwed. The congress is the scary part. Both houses will have vast majorities in favor of the libs. If Hussein ( as Patriot likes to point out) wins he will have carte blanche to push through his socialist agenda. Our only hope would be for a Conservative Court to step in and save us. What puzzles me is how democraps could increase there power when they are the lowest rated congress in history.
October 23, 2008 at 3:43 am |
well, Tom, even though congress is one of the lowest rated congress in US history, most people associate it with the Bush president and not the fact Democrats control congress (it amazes me how stupid people can get). So if there’s any likely indication, democrats will sweep congress and Obama looks like he will win the election
So if there’s any silver lining, this is exactly what happened in 1992…Dems took everything and our country really went bad…2 years later Republicans took over congress and clinton was forced to bend to the will of republicans, and as a result, years of prosperity with no major, liberal agenda passed.
October 23, 2008 at 4:22 am |
Hey at least when they attack us he will go after the real culprits not just a scapegoat like Saddam Hussein. Obama will not waste billions like W did in Iraq looking for weapons of mass destruction. I think you republicans will be suprised at the job he does in a crisis. Bush couldn’t even handle Katrina crisis. Go Obama a true Patriot.
October 23, 2008 at 2:59 pm |
Joe Biden loves his country, which means he loves us. He is warning Americans not to vote for Obama.
October 23, 2008 at 3:17 pm |
How do you know that he will go after the real culprits? How do you know he will do ANYTHING? He has NO EXPERIENCE, NO HISTORY FOR US TO LOOK BACK ON! one year is NOT ENOUGH TO RUN A COUNTRY!!! Black, white, yellow or blue!!! I want things to change bad too but not bad enough to trust ANYONE on just their word to PROTECT US! and we need to be concerned about this esp. if Biden is right, just like Kennedy. 9/11 happened to Bush 9 months into his term! tHATS MY CONCERN! and it should be everyones. There are great speakers all around the world, there are many people with great ideas, but does that mean that they are capable of making them happen? We require more years of experience to become a president of a corporation than we are requiring of THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!! Ask yourself this question before you vote – (for example) who do you listen to more for advice on important decisions? Someone thats been there done that or someone that never has? The color of his skin doesn’t matter – wisdom, which is only gained thru experience DOES MATTER!!!
October 23, 2008 at 10:06 pm |
Why does this story about Joe Biden and Obama’s comment on “rhetorical flourishes” remind me of the story of Balaam’s donkey??? God can use anyone or anything to be prophetic, including Joe Biden!
The world knows Obama’s all talk and weak. Now is NOT the time to “hire” a president with no guts, but takes all the glory and has NO experience.
Then there’s the “friends” and those he’s hung around all his life — a host of questionable characters at best. Mama always warns to be careful “who you hang with” because they influence you. Obama can’t dismiss this stuff — though he’s mightly trying.
I’m waiting for God to show the world his mighty right arm and embarass those who say “with our lips we will prevail.”

We already have socialism and handouts for the rich and for corporations, why is it bad to help out regular folk, too? If you’re going to call Obama a communist, you’ll need to call Bush and Paulson socialist, at least.
Don’t be a hypocrite, we need to end corporate welfarism, especially to defense contractors, and reduce the influence of the think tanks, and lobbyists that actually write all of our legislation, and actually provide some services to the people.
How about bridges that don’t fall down? How about real energy independence, like T. Boon Pickens is suggesting? How about visits to the hospital that don’t result in having to declare bankruptcy? How about restoring lost civil rights by getting rid of the Patriot Act, and Presidential signing statements?
Experience at handing corporations what they want does nothing for the American people. What’s good for billionaires, doesn’t trickle down, contrary to popular myth.
October 24, 2008 at 3:45 pm |
Hey Allen…Bush shouldn’t have to handle a crisis like Katrina. That’s for the local government to handle WHICH THEY DID NOT. The mayor of New Orleans and the governor of LA were both warned to get the people out and they just sat on their rear ends and did nothing. But everyone in LA sat back whining and blaming Bush for their woes. Didn’t hear all that stuff when a hurricane hit Texas. We take care of our own problems and don’t sit around waiting for the Federal government to come bail us out. Yeah…good old Obama….he won’t waste money hunting down international criminals…he will just want to sit down and have tea and a discussion with them…lol! What a panty waste. A true Obamanition!!!!!

Here is a few facts from the Obama files regarding his birth certificate:
From a detailed analysis of the image and the text, it looks like this certificate is not a true copy of an original, certified document. There is nothing in this copy to indicate that it is, in fact, a “certified copy.” There is a whole lot of evidence that it is a manufactured copy. There certainly is a very strong motive for creating one.
When Obama was in high school, he found a family stash of birth certificates and old vaccination forms. Why, then, is Obama releasing a bogus “Certificate of Live Birth” instead of the “Birth Certificate” he found as a child?
Unless the voting public is given a real birth certificate to examine, the question of Barack’s birth is still up in the air.
Obama won’t release his birth certificate and he won’t release his passport. Obama also won’t release his SAT scores or his college transcripts, or his thesis, or his client list, or his Illinois senate records. What do YOU really know about this guy?
The Last Word on Obama’s Certificate of Live Birth? Yes! It’s bogus.

Hey amyD – are you comparing a weather crisis to our national security? Wake up. Nothing else matters in this election but our national security. Without national security, WE HAVE NO REASON TO WORRY ABOUT TAX CUTS OR ANYTHING ELSE OBAMA IS PROMISING. Believe me, they will be the last of our concerns. I don’t understand how Obama supporters can look their children in the eye and say “I voted for this man because I wanted my fair share. It didn’t matter to me that he surrounded himself with people who hate America as long as there was a chance I might get a few extra bucks in my wallet.” What a joke. Are Obama followers so greedy they will trade our country for money. It makes me sick!

sorry AmyD….. I misread your statement. I guess I’m just so used to people bashing the republicans… I apologize
October 24, 2008 at 5:21 pm |
I can’t believe that the American people are so blind as to obama not willing to supply legal documents of his legal citizenship. This man want to run our country. what about our constittution and guidelines that determine who and who can’t run for office. This is unbleievable. Where are the rub and others in office that should be standing up for the American people. Where are all the dems that should also be questioning this information ?
thanks for standing up for the American people you creeps. every last one of you in congress and the senate should be ousted and replaced with politicians that give a crap !
October 24, 2008 at 5:38 pm |
No problem Leslie in California! I was simply responding to Allen who put Bush down for not being able to handle the Katrina crisis. I totally agree with you…Americans need to WAKE UP and realize that without our military and national security in place we will have no reason to be worried about the economy, global warming, energy, or health care! Bush inherited a disaster from the Clinton Administration and the only reason we had a surplus instead of a deficit is because we had Republicans as a majority in the house. Clinton opened the back door for the terrorists to come in. Also, he had a very easy administration…no major problems to have to deal with. Bush inherited a lot of problems from the previous administration, has had to cope with 9/11 and two major hurricanes hitting our coasts along with numerous other issues. Obama will not only open the door for terrorists…he will invite them in for a “meeting”! GO MCCAIN AND PALIN AND GOD BLESS AND SAVE OUR NATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Allen- If you think Obama is a patriot…..
you need to loosen that towel you got wrapped around your head!!

I always cringe when libs talk about pulling out of Iraq and going to find “the real killers” (a la O.J.?) in Afghanistan. Let me spell it out for you Democrats who think that’s a good idea:
Iraq — mostly flat country with the occasional city. Excellent theater for using airplanes, tanks and remote control drones to kill terrorists by the hundreds of thousands. If they hide in cities, we have gear that can see and attack through buildings. Despite this, genius terrorists keep flocking to Iraq to stop the “occupation” of Americans, and they keep getting killed for their trouble. We’ve lost only 4,100 from our side in the years we’ve been there, an incredible feat for a years-long war.
Afghanistan — mountainous terrain full of caves, forests and lots of places to hide. Terrain makes using aircraft and drones difficult — tanks will be virtually useless in many locations. We have no equipment that can see through mountains into caves. Our troops will be reduced to crawling through booby-trapped cave systems looking for bad guys. Remember Vietnam, how our guys had to crawl into enemy bunkers? Ever see “300,” where a handful of Spartans held off hundreds of thousands of Persians because they funneled them into a small area? If we go to Afghanistan, expect that American death toll to soar.
As for Barack Obama’s “patriotism,” he started his career as a member of a socialist political party called the New Party, whose goal was to infiltrate the Democrats and public institutions to push through their Marxist goals. Obama denies any connection, but a party newsletter proves it. See here:

Since his record and suspect associations/advisors have never been called into question, or the media has swept them right back under the rug (ala discrediting Joe the Plumber for asking a legitimate question), the October surprise is the fact that he is not a natural born US citizen (and is sneaking off to Hawaii to produce a bogus birth certificate under the guise of visiting his grandmother).
God help us, I am not sure we can stop this train at this point…..
October 24, 2008 at 9:36 pm |
God can stop the train.
I suggest all of us, God fearing people, humble ourselves and pray and see what God does! I have 2 kids and a grandbaby on the way, I need reason to hope! That’s it! Pray, vote and tell the truth to anyone who will listen!
Go McCain/Palin – By the way, Obama, God’s not my crutch…He’s my legs!

AGOH- you need to repost this old post and all the comments to get it back up front and center, again. This discussion sums up all the issues very nicely and will reignite and update the discussion in light of new revelations.
