Joe Biden to target Donald Trump on foreign policy
2016-06-21
[LATIMES] 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...
will step into the campaign fray Monday with a foreign policy address that casts Donald Trump’s approach to the world as antithetical to American values.

Biden’s address to the Center for a New American Security opens as a defense of the B.O. regime’s foreign policy record, one that has "positioned the United States at the forefront of tremendous opportunity," he will say, according to advance excerpts.

But Biden will also target the presumptive Republican nominee, even if not by name, arguing that by turning inward, or seeking "sound-bite solutions in a world defined by complexity," the U.S. could "squander all of our hard-earned progress."

"I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s capacity to lead our world to a more peaceful and prosperous future. But our leadership does not spring from some inherent American magic -- it never has," he plans to say.

"It stems from our willingness to see challenges on the horizon and step forward to meet them first, our ability to lead by example and draw partners to our side. That’s what has always made America great."

Given how the "thetical" approach has been going lately, I'll take the antithetical, thank you very much.

#4  Arab Spring, Libya, Syria, Iran, rapefugees, North Korea, South China Sea, etc., etc...

It'll be interesting to hear how Biden twists all that to make it sound like a "tremendous opportunity" unless he means opportunities for our enemies.

#3  "squander all of our hard-earned progress"

Mr. Biden - in 2011 you were personally responsible for turning the killer Ali Musa Daqduq (responsible for executing 5 US MPs captured in Karbala - shot them in the back of the head with their hands zip tied) back over to the Iraqis only to see them release him to the Hezbollah (this hurt me personnaly). Concurrently, you turned your head and allowed Maliki to charge VP Tariq al-Hashemi with murder/and later the killing of Sunni protesters in Ramadi. How did this progress work our for ya? Mr. Biden your "progress" is directly responsible for the chain of events which directly led to the Sunni/ISIS uprising, rise of a Khalifah and establishment of the Caliphate.

Result - Christian genocide, Shia genocide, cold war with the Russians... Mr. Biden - blood is on your hands.

#1  "ISIS has never been an existential threat to something happening to someone in the United States of America. It's a serious problem overseas, but it's confusing and frightening." Vice President Joe Biden.
