Democrat Arrogance has no boundaries



Republicans Object to Biden Taking Credit for Success in Iraq

Once again the arrogance of this president and his vice president is astounding. Not that Joe Biden has cornered the market on arrogance by any stretch. The man aside from being a walking and talking gaff machine, is literally an embarrassment to himself and his office. But then again? Barack Obama knew that and chose him anyway.

So here we have the most recent lunacy from the mind of Biden.

"I am very optimistic about Iraq," he said. "I mean, this could be one of the great achievements of this administration."


Does the man suffer from short term and long term memory loss? Or does he think that the rest of us do. A statement like that rises above and past unmitigated gall in my opinion.

But it gets better.

"You're going to see 90,000 American troops come marching home by the end of the summer," he said. "You're going to see a stable government in Iraq that is actually moving toward a representative government."


I would say that the man has absolutely no shame, but I long ago realized that most democrats don't have any shame to begin with.

Meanwhile, Senator Inhofe of Oklahoma summed it up.

"When Joe Biden was in the Senate and Obama was in the Senate, they authored and were the chief architect of the resolution opposing the surge," he said.


And a further reality check from Michael O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution

"The reduction in U.S. forces that is under way right now is in fact important and it's largely the continuation of the policy that President Bush had set in place when he negotiated the drawdown schedule with Prime Minister Maliki at the end of 2008," Michael O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution told Fox News.


And to think, there were democrats that demonized Dick Cheney on a daily basis for eight years. Dick Cheney has more sense in his watch pocket than Biden does period.

And how could we not recognize Robert Gibbs for his contribution to yesterday's heresy and political plagiarism when he attributed the success in Iraq to this president "Putting back together what was broken" along with the "political pressure that the president as a then candidate helped to bring about."

Absolutely amazing.

I esp loved the line by Gibbs about candidate Obama's pressure! I just couldn't believe that one... well... I couldn't believe it more than I couldn't believe the other statements...

Really remarkable posturing.
