Obama Will Be Tested – Biden Gets It Right (for once)

2009 May 25

“Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy,” said Joe Biden to a roomful of donors. “The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.”

“Remember I said it standing here, if you don’t remember anything else I said,” Biden continued. “Watch, we’re going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.

“I promise you it will occur. As a student of history and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you it’s going happen. I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate.”

It appears that even Joe Biden gets it right occasionally. Obama is facing several major international crises (Pakistan and now North Korea) while the domestic scene is equally grim.

Is Obama capable of handling these crises? Remember Rahm Emanuel said never let a crisis go to waste?

Where will they hide now that Joe Biden revealed the location of the secret bunker to the world? Secret bunkers aren’t always what they’re cracked up to be (see Hitler, Adolph).

How will MSM make Obama look great (even if He screws up)?

    He denounced it???? I hope he didn’t use a strongly worded letter! That may be just a little too much of an overreaction. Akin to “Oh no he diint”! Tone it down, Obama…..keep it civil! Diplomacy above all else!

    I think I have the form right:

    Poisoned spring; mocking
    Ogre bares his teeth and claws;
    “Bush at fault”: The One.

    I can see both Russia and China getting into the act.

    It’s going to be a rough four (hopefully) years.

    Don’t worry. Hope ‘n’ change will save the day. I wonder if the North Koreans were sending to us a message by detonating their nuke on Memorial Day?

    Epic Fail.

    NK Nukes and Iran putting warships to sea on Memorial day, nah pure coincidence I assure you. ;)

    Sarah Palin: Kim Jong is Il, Which Means That Cutting US Defense is Sick

    More N Korea nuke tests: why consider US missile program cuts now? AK military program helps secure US. Now is NOT time to cut our defense.

    Obama already had his crisis such that it was. Like Mr. “Peace in Our Time” Chamberlain, Obama went to Europe on his grand tour to gin up support for — prisoner exchange, bucking up the dollar, troops for Afganistan, etc. He got — France takes 4, no dollar support and what troops he got are not much more than wait staff at the Waldorf.

    He went, he saw, he lost. Yo Biden! He took the test and failed, and you didn’t even see it.

    It will be damn embarrassing to The One if he has to depend on the Alaska National Guard to knock a NK rocket out of the sky.
