Don’t mock VP Biden.

He may know MORE than Obama. Who, we know, don’t have national security mtgs or answer 3 am phone calls.

Was this speech given to al-Qaeda the Taliban or perhaps some terrorists?

The question, the QUESTION was "How many of you know someone who has served in Iraq or Iran?

The man is an idiot.

I had an uncle who served in Iran, but that was back in the 1960’s. They had a hard time convincing the Iranians that it was not sanitary to drink, bathe, piss, and poop in the same water source.

Many voters are the type of stupid person (by Obama/Biden standards) that gets up, goes to work each morning, and doesn’t get opportunities to glad-hand the masses at public events.

They may know some of our vets, and may in fact go out of their way to support them.

This still isn’t something that is a political plus for them. As opposed to Biden, they do it because they genuinely care about them even though they can’t get their votes.

Reid would’ve raised his hand if the moron said Willy Wonka land.

They showed the clip at the end of "The Five". Everyone laughed except Bob Beckel, who said he didn't get it until someone pointed it out to him. He then lamely said he must've missed that part.....

My wife’s USAF uncle trained jet fighter pilots in Iran, until Jimmy Carter turned that beautiful country to the dark side.
