Joe Biden: I Question Barack Obama’s Judgment

September 25, 2008 / 11:53 am • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

That Joe Biden bungles even simple sentences surprises no one, no one, it seems, except Barack Obama. Let me get this straight: Since Barack Obama has no experience, we are supposed to vote for him for his temperament and judgment, right? Well, on the temperament front he seems either unwilling or unable to make a decision which is a-ok if you’re a sit-out-the-vote Senator. It’s problematic in the executive office. And on judgment. Who are we kidding? The Vice Presidential pick was to demonstrate Obama’s gravitas and judgment. What it demonstrates is his disregard for the country and his own candidacy. Some judgment.

Can you imagine Biden chatting up foreign dignitaries? Are there enough kiss-asses in the State Department to make what he does wrong, right?

    Okay, I can buy making an argument that Obama lacks foreign policy experience. Joe Biden has arguably the most foreign policy experience of all democrats. It is easy to image Biden talking to foreign leaders because he does so on a regular basis. As soon as there was a conflict between Georgia and Russia, he was on the plane to Georgia. Following 9/11, Bush called upon Biden for his judgement.
    Are you actually going to make the argument that Palin is more qualified to talk to foreign leaders? She can’t even coferently speak to the American media. Choosing her is an obvious political ploy and shows a shameful disregard for the American people. Your argument is strawman and shows your bias to the extent that you are being intellectually dishonest.

    Joe Biden has been wrong about practaclly every important foreign policy question for decades: Cold War, Iraq war part I, just to name a few. All of the experiance in the world does not count for me if it is all wrong!!

    You don’t know the real reason Slow Joe Biden got tapped for Veep?

    He cannot possibly outshine The One.

    The Universe cannot have two centers.

    I think the reason Biden got tapped is because he’s so buddy-buddy with McCain. The Obama camp must have figured McCain wouldn’t play hardball against his friend. They thought wrong.

    Jesse Davis–
    Actually, it’s more correct to say, “speak coherently” than “coherently speak.” Palin does either or both much better than either candidate on the Democratic ticket does. Hell, I speak more coherently than either candidate on the Democratic ticket does, and I get tongue-tied in front of a cat.

    Writing your personal opinions on how you perceive a candidate ability’s to be, with out evidence proves nothing. Here is an independent unbiased report card of just this topic http://www.globalsolutions.org/reportcard

    I would also like to add that picking on a persons view based on spelling or punctuation errors is childish and again does not help prove your point.
