Biden desperately trying to establish himself as relevant. Has he dropped out of the presidential race yet?

I thought that Sudan had a civil war. Don't the Dems say that it is impossible to win when getting involved in a civil war?

We need the troops to protect us against the invasion of this country. Biden appears to have no problem with the large numbers of people in the US already killed by illegal aliens.

The Sudan will have to be dealt with militarily sooner or later, but its laughable that someone like Biden is calling for this. The Dems are so ignorant that they picture this as a “humanitarian crisis”; they imagine themselves being the saviors of the poor and downtrodden. If they had any idea of the terrorist haven The Sudan has become, they wouldn’t want a thing to do with it.

Both the Democrats and Republicans are selective and hypocritical on the civil wars they want to "manage." A plague on both their houses. Ron Paul is the only consistent candidate who opposes nation building wars whether in Iraq or Darfur.

It’s a quagmire.

It looks like Senator Steel-Plate-In-Head is trying to out "Obama" Obama. How are our vital National security interests threatened by the Darfur civil war Senator? Please help us understand Senator. Maybe, Senator, you should call your good friend Joe Wilson and see what he knows about Darfur's attempts to buy yellowcake from Niger. Maybe you should take a meeting with Madelyn Halfbright about Darfur's WMD development program.
You're a moron Joe.

I’m with Biden on this. This could be done without boots on the ground.
All we need is air power to destroy the air gun ships and tanks that are being used against the victims.
Why Bush has not already acted on this, I’m not sure. It would stand in stark contrast to “the first black president’s” inaction in Rwanda.
To: edcoil
My senator. Ugh!
Well, surprise, the bad guys are Muslim there as well. Maybe a quick in and out engagement with a few precision air strikes might not be a bad idea. Then just sit back and watch.

DarfurWhy? What has Darfur ever done to us? Why would they be a threat to the United States? Iraq was a huge threat to the U.S., yet people complain about us going there. Why in the world would we even consider going to Darfur after all the flack about Iraq?
To: concerned about politics
I agree this has nothing to do with our national security. Let France do it.
