Actually, many of our troops are young also, and are frequently called “kids” by the lefties.
Good point. I would like to know how many times Biden called our troops kids.
Here’s one:
Biden: ‘Bottom Line, Get Our Kids Out Of Iraq’

Biden told supporters, in Sioux City, Wednesday night, that he would bring all combat troops home by March of 2008.
Joe Biden says the bottom line is simple... “get our kids out of Iraq.”
On this Fourth of July, the democratic presidential candidate told supporters, in Sioux City, that American soldiers are getting “chewed up” in the middle of Iraq’s civil war.
And, he has a plan to get America out. “Begin to draw down U.S. troops immediately,” Biden said. But, that’s just the start of Joe Biden’s plan to end U.S. involvement in Iraq. “Get them out of the civil war,” Biden said. “Allow those that stay only to train Iraqi Army, and guard U.S. forces.”
Biden would have all combat troops out of Iraq by March of 2008. But, the chair of the Senate’s foreign relations committee says there’s a difference between his plan... and those of his opponents. Biden claims his is the only plan with a “political” solution that returns control of the country to the Iraqis. “The only way this is going to work is if you de-centralize Iraq,” Biden said. “Give the local economies and the local districts control over their local lives.”
And, Biden says, stop trying to make one strong, central government. Biden believes it simply won’t work. “Let a federal system emerge,” Biden said. “That’s the only way we’re going to be able to leave Iraq without leaving chaos behind.”
Biden says the U.S. got into the war “for all the wrong reasons.” Now, he says, our obligation isn’t to the Iraqis... it’s to ourselves.
