Biden: US will chase ISIL to 'the gates of hell'
2014-09-04
[Iran Press TV] Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body...
 says the United States will follow the ISIL terrorist group which executed two US journalists "to the gates of hell."
What would he know? It's not like he's close to Obama dispensing advice. It's not like he was one of the leading lights of the Senate. It's not like he has the world's leaders on speed-dial. When he was nominated as VP in 2008 the fawning media said that he'd provide "balance" and "experience" to the new-comer Obama. Champ knew better -- Biden is, and has been, nothing more than assassination insurance.
"The American people are so much stronger, so much more resolved than any enemy can fully understand," Biden said on Wednesday in the wake of the killing of Steven Sotloff. "As a nation we are united and when people harm Americans we don't retreat, we don't forget."

#11  Don't recall where I saw it, but some soldier dude snarked, "To the gates of Hell? We can't even leave our front gate (of the base)"

#8  Almost as good as his "Take back America" speech. Since his party is in power, who is he saying we should take back America from? There is a great deal of rhetoric that comes from this administration. Unfortunately most of what they do hurts the average American. Wake me up when we chase ISIS to the gates of hell and kill them. Let's not forget who would have to do the heavy lifting in the "we" of Biden's equation.

#4  He loves that phrase, repeats it almost as much as Obama loves his "now let me be clear". Like a little kid doing his best George C. Scott impression.

#3  And they'll know when they've arrived in hell, because they'll be listening to Joe Biden speeches.
