Biden Puts “42-Year Reputation On the Line” Promising Iran Won’t Get Nukes

US-ISRAEL-POLITICS-OBAMA-NETANYAHU

No nuclear Holocaust or your money back. Uncle Joe Biden pinky swears. He’s putting his 42-year reputation on the line during which he was wrong about every major issue. Including Iran.

But this time he won’t be wrong. And if he is, then oops.

Vice President Joe Biden sought to smooth over U.S.-Israeli relations Monday in an address to the the Jewish Federations of North America.

Biden joked that he once signed a picture for “Bibi” that said, “I don’t agree with a damn thing you say, but I love ya.”

“We really are good friends,” Biden said of their relationship. “He has been a great, great friend.”

Biden needed to repeat that a few more times because it sounded unconvincing the first thirty times he said it.

“Were there not an Israel, US would have to invent one. We will never ever abandon Israel – out of our own self interest,” he said.

I don’t know what that sentence means and I’m afraid to find out.

How does one go about inventing an ancient country and a people… and then bringing them into being today?  Then again that same exact process worked with “Palestine”.

“I have heard so much malarkey about our position on Iran,” Biden said. “We will not let Iran acquire a nuclear weapon, period. I would not put my 42-year reputation on the line if I were not certain when I say it. We mean it.”

Speaking of “malarkey” and Biden’s 42-year reputation

 In 1979 Senator Biden shared President Jimmy Carter’s belief that the fall of the Shah in Iran and the advent of Ayatollah Khomeini’s rule represented progress for human rights in that country. Throughout the ensuing 444-day hostage crisis, during which Khomeini’s extremist acolytes routinely paraded the blindfolded American captives in front of television cameras and threatened them with execution, Biden opposed strong action against the mullahs and called for dialogue.

But then again Biden denounced Bush I for dialogue with China.

“President Bush and Secretary Baker have been seeking to engage the world’s last major Communist regime…. it is a regime marked by brutality at home and irresponsibility abroad, and it is a regime the United States should now cease to court.”

Let’s recap. Engaging China bad. Engaging Iranian terrorists good.

Except when Biden is engaging China on behalf of Hollywood.

During a luncheon two years ago in Los Angeles, Vice President Biden convinced China’s vice president to agree to a deal that would unlock new fortunes for Hollywood. Biden asked Xi Jinping to relax China’s quota of allowing only 20 foreign films to be shown at a time and to increase distribution fees for Hollywood firms.

That’s Joe. Always a man of principle. And his reputation is worth as much as his principles.

    Joe Biden never has gotten a single issue right in his 4 decade career.
    Smart Money has to be against him BY DEFAULT.
    Anything he says, just pick the opposite,
    In all likelihood, that’s either the correct answer or closer to the truth than anything that will ever fly out of JB’s mouth in a million years.

    • Softly Bob

      His mother had the same problem.

      “Joe, why are you wearing pants over your head? They’re on the top of your body instead of the bottom.”

      “Joe, you’re sticking that ice-cream up your butt. It’s meant to go in your mouth.”

      “Joe, you just told your friends that Australia is right at the top of the World map. It’s actually down south and right at the bottom.”

      “Joe, your history teacher told me today that you said said that the Jews captured Hitler and put him into a concentration camp.

      It was the other way round!”

      Yes, you’re right. Whatever Joe says or does, pick the opposite!

  • Chris Gait

    I’m just so proud of him being able to hold that shirt right side up, display the cover of the classified document WITHOUT actually showing the document to the camera, etc. He’s also been able to get on an airplane and go overseas. All kinds of things that are very complex for a person of his level of mental development. He’s an inspiration for idiots throughout the nation…and now the world!

  • Bamaguje

    Biden… just another Kerry. Always getting it wrong because they put short term political gains above the long term interest of the nation
    Or is it the other way round… Kerry’s another Biden.

    • Pete

      Always getting it wrong because they put short term political gains above the long term interest of the nation.”

      The social-political dynamics of that primate strategy shapes the fate of mankind more than people are willing to admit.

  • camp7

    Joe never said most of the things he said. Half the lies they tell about him aren’t true. If Joe sees a fork in the road, he takes it. If he knew where he was going, he might wind up someplace else. For Joe, it’s like deja-vu, all over again.

    If the world was perfect, Joe wouldn’t be there. His future ain’t what it used to be. He takes a two-hour nap from one to four. If you ask him anything he doesn’t know, he has the answer. He pairs up in threes and observes a lot by talking.

    The good news about Joe is, he gets late early out there. How can you blame him when he knows it isn’t his fault? He’s a “great” friend that doesn’t agree with a “damn thing you say”. Love ya too Joe.

      But in this case, he may just be telling the truth.

      • camp7

        Well if he is telling the truth, he never said most of the things he said.

  • Texas Patriot

    Biden is telling it like it is. Either Iran permits wide-open inspections to verify the peaceful purposes of its nuclear programs, or the whole thing gets blown out of the ground. And it really shouldn’t be too long before that theory is proven one way or another.

  • gerry

    The only right about Biden is that he is always wrong.

    • Softly Bob

      Consistency is a great quality.

  • Pete

    I don’t agree with the odds-makers,” Biden said in the interview broadcast on Monday. “I predict we’re going to keep the Senate.” – Yahoo

    Biden says naw, naw, man, we’re gonna keep — The best argument it’s gonna be a landslide, is Biden, to me, claiming that they’re gonna keep the Senate. Plugs has yet to be right. In 40 years Joe Biden has not been right about anything, and that’s not an exaggeration in Washington. – Rush Limbaugh

    Takeaway:

    Joe Biden asserting that Iran is not going to get nukes means the opposite

    Iran will get nukes.

    • Dan Knight

      You’re right. If Plugs takes one side, place all our bets on the other side. He probably couldn’t tell us which the sun rises if we gave him a multi-guess test.

      • Pete

        I would not always place bets on the other side. But if I had to make a snap decision without research, it is what I would do. More time than not a person would be okay.

        • Dan Knight

          Lol, well yes. If one is actually betting! Only a fool would not do his research! ;-)

  • watsa46

    It is either DECEPTION, economic war or hot war! O has already excluded hot war and will not bring back economic war which Iran does not care about. Therefore it must be D.

  • watsa46

    O war on White America and IL goes on.

  • namberak

    Biden put his reputation on the line? Uh … I gotta get a shovel and get busy out in the backyard. Excuse me for rushing off …

  • Softly Bob

    Some great pics there, Daniel. But you failed to post the one with Joe sat in the corner wearing a dunce’s cap.

  • Dan Knight

    Thanks Daniel … we need some humor once in awhile.
    Biden’s guarantee is about as close as we’re going to get to an admission of support for the Iranian nuclear program as we’ll get: Or I haven’t been following Biden for 42 years… the only really positive thing I can say is – the ding a ling probably believes it. And that’s why I’m so sure it means the very opposite. He’s overheard some loopy nonsense in the WH about Iran and he’s completely bought into the hokum pokum and jimminy pooh.

  • Daniel

    Just last week Biden promised that DEMS would hold the Senate.
    How did that work out for him?

  • rlo

    Oh crap! They’ve got nukes! Joe hasn’t been right on anything yet so they must already have them.

  • OdinsAcolyte

    What an idiot.

  • zombietimeshare

    “He’s putting his 42-year reputation on the line…”

    So Iran gets nukes then.

  • TGMCCOY

    Oh,oh, Joe’s out of the attic….

  • Texas Patriot

    Iran probably won’t permit inspections anyway, so the only thing left to do is blow it out of the ground. If Obama does that, he will have fulfilled his pledge to the American people and the rest of the world, and that’s what I expect him to do.

  • rosewater49

    He’s betting nothing, what a risk taker.

  • notanobamaliar

    Another promise from the administration that said if you like your doctor you can keep them and your health insurance will go down by $2500. Their promises are worth less than the spam emails in your inbox.

  • WillielomanIII

    The issue is not whether the US “allows” Iran to get a nuclear weapon, the issue is whether or not the US allows Iran to become a nuclear threshold state, and the US is allowing that. That means that Iran can construct and nuke in a few weeks and the world will be impotent, outside of massive military strike, to stop them. This is the issue and Israel cannot allow that because as soon as Iran can build a nuke in a few weeks, the public message from Iran will be to nuke Israel. There is ZERO room for tolerance on this. The US government is now allied with Iran against the Jews. Just a fact
