Biden voted for the Iraq war.

Sure.  Lots of them did.   Hell, Trump was in favor of it before he wasn't.  

 

The Iraq War changed a somewhat strong opinion to very strong opinion that America largely creates the chaos in the world.

Look Frenchy, you don't see me over here blaming Dudley DooRight for the miscalculations of Justin Trudeau, or actions of foreign aggressors on his watch.      Biden has had nearly 50 years

He didn't vote for it though and lots of people were in favor of it before they weren't.

Not really Biden's fault as he hasn't done anything yet to screw that pooch worse.  Iraq is at the feet of Bush/Cheney, and always will be IMO.  

 

Next to invading Iraq in the first place, the most consequential decision was disbanding the Republican Guard and Baath party after the war.  

 

Guys like Hussein, Gaddafi and Assad suck, but sometimes the alternative is worse from a pure American perspective.  

It was Bush/Chaney that lied to Congress and the American public to justify action against Iraq.  They waved the flag, told some lies about connections to 9/11, and Congress rallied behind it with few exceptions.  Because anyone opposing the program was unpatriotic.  But no hearings, explanations, or time served for any of these whoppers which resulted in the deaths of 100's of thousands Iraqi's along with US service personnel. 

 

Now after 20 years of occupation under a puppet government the natives are growing restless.  Most likely urged on and instigated by Iran.  Add in the intrigue around the Iran nuclear deal and throw Russian and Chinese influence into the mix and its all quite a mess.  Mission accomplished.  Also, there's trouble brewing in Libya between various factions left over from the brilliant nation building exercise that removed Gaddafi.  Another "bad" guy replaced by more "bad" guys.  One thing for certain, the enemies of the empire see weakness and are pouncing everywhere.  With hope the Biden administration can send some diversity trainers and deploy drag queen shows to distract the angry mobs.

SAY ANYTHING: 

 

Here’s the White House’s Excuse for Why Biden’s Been Ignoring Israel’s Calls.

 

“Prime Minister Yair Lapid has requested a meeting with US President Joe Biden during his visit to the US for the UN General Assembly next month,” The Post reported, “amid deep concern in Jerusalem over an impending nuclear deal between Washington and Tehran.”

 

Evidently, “Lapid hopes to meet with Biden on September 20, the day that the US president is set to address the General Assembly,” but no meeting has yet been confirmed — but it’s worse than that. “Lapid has yet to be able to speak to Biden on the phone, despite recent advances in Iran talks, according to multiple sources,”

 

The Post noted.

That is, America’s greatest ally in the Middle East can’t even get Joe Biden on the phone as the White House works — through Russia, lest we forget — to negotiate a massive payday for the Iranian regime and more normal relations between the tyrannical regime and the rest of the world.

It really is Obama’s third term.

Democratic foreign policy. 🇺🇸 While CPAC is inviting wannabe dictators to their meetings Democrats are supporting democracies ❤️


Maybe Nancy should spend some time walking the streets of her own mess of a district instead of jetting around the world.  She represents California District 12 not Taiwan or Armenia.

Dude…really? Have you noticed that your nonsense just isn’t working at all? Day in and day out on here. Not a single opinion has been changed. Go outside and make something of your life. You’re being played!

Quote

Mr. Trump said the freed Americans alongside him at the White House were among more than 50 people released from 22 countries during his tenure. He characterized all of those people as “hostages,” though most were imprisoned, albeit often on dubious charges, in foreign legal systems.

Um - you have the worst reading comprehension.

 

And regarding Trump - awesome. Too bad he couldn’t get these six people released on his watch, too? If only he

golfed less. 

 

Hell, you freaks tell us Trump wouldn’t have let Putin attack Ukraine yet Trump couldn’t even get our Americans back from Putin on his watch.

What did I read wrong?  That you picked on Trump for something he did better than Biden up until now? 
 

BTW regarding reading comprehension?  Biden got 7 folks released not 6. 🙄 

 

FORE!!!

But you knew that 


Awesome. Exercise and fresh air is good for you.  Maybe you should hit the links more yourself.  Paint you ball orange. I bet you’d hit it a mile.

Maybe if Trump had golfed less he would have had time to bring these folks home.

 

 

Did you intentionally neglect to mention the rest of the story?

The "release" was a trade.

The hostages were released because the US released Maduro regime family members convicted of drug charges, including the "narco nephews" of Mrs. Maduro who were convicted of attempting to smuggle cocaine into the US from Haiti.

 

It helps if the entire story is told.

I didn’t neglect anything - Americans have been returned to the US.

Of course you did.

 

The claim in analogous to saying that someone received a car, without mentioning what they paid for it, or that  U2 pilot Gary Powers was simply returned to the US.

 

These omissions are not unnoticed, and disingenuous.

Do you think those guys and their families give a F what the US exchanged for their freedom?

NOBODY RESPECTS, LIKES, OR FEARS HIM: 

 

Biden Begs OPEC for More Oil Again, Gets Massive Cut Instead.

 

 

https://pjmedia.com/vodkapundit/2022/10/05/biden-begs-opec-for-more-oil-again-gets-massive-cut-instead-n1634702

 

 

.

Earlier I read an interesting analysis which concluded the primary target of the Fed is high energy prices, which is the primary driver of inflation,  and they're committed to bringing them down via higher interest rates at the expense of everything else.  Essentially they're at war with OPEC+ which is in a unique position to defend their interests by raising or lowering output as needed.  OPEC+ is intent not to let the consequences of the Feds policy fall on them but rather back at the US which is generating the fallout.

I'm not sure what you are referring to by use of the "the Fed."

Generally, that is the term used to describe the Federal Reserve.

 

The Federal Reserve, has a dual mandate.

The first is to maintain maximum employment, and the second is price stability with moderate long term interest rates.

 

They are not specifically concerned with energy costs, except as a part of the total calculus in inflation.

There is no indication the the Fed has been politicized, and if there was, the markets would react in a violent manner never seen.

 

The Fed does what it does, uses the data it does, and marches on, apolitical.

Biden administration is scum.

 

 

 

Report: Biden Tried to Deceive Us With Naked Political Plea to the Saudis

 

8643d475-bf95-4b75-96b4-3305218cca21-860

 

 

 

As previously reported, OPEC+ made the decision to cut two million barrels of oil a day in production, despite the White House’s pleas to produce more. That caused the White House to “spasm” and panic. But now, there’s more about the White House reaction that is very troubling.

 

According to the Wall Street Journal, citing “people familiar with the talks,” when the Biden Administration found out that cuts might be coming, they reached out to Saudi Arabia and urged them to pressure OPEC+ to delay the cuts for another month until November, just a few days before the midterm elections so it wouldn’t impact them. That way, Americans wouldn’t feel the effect of the cuts until after the election. It was a full-court press: White House officials called the Saudi leader Mohammed bin Salman, and even Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen spoke to the finance minister.

 

The Biden team has done a lot of things to try to deceive us, but it’s hard to get much more nakedly political than that.

 

According to the report, the Biden team even threatened the Saudis, saying if they didn’t get a delay from OPEC+, they would view it as that they were siding with Russia and it would damage the relationship we have with them.

 

The Saudis told the Biden team “no,” because they said the Biden team was trying to influence the election; it wasn’t about the oil situation. Then they went and leaned on OPEC+ to cut production. The Saudis also said they have to look out for their economy, if the price per barrel goes too low.

 

The WSJ report also showed how much Biden has hurt the relationship with the Saudis. He ostensibly went to Saudi Arabia in July to help repair the relationship and beg for oil, after he had called the country a “pariah” because of the murder of Jamal Kashoggi. But instead of improving things, according to the Saudis, he made things worse.

 

 

"Gettin results" ?
