Biden Says Bush Wants to Delay Chaos

DAVENPORT, Iowa (AP) - Democrat Joe Biden charged Tuesday that President Bush's policies in Iraq are designed to confuse voters and ensure that a chaotic end to the war is delayed until after he leaves office.

Biden pointed to the turmoil that accompanied the end of the Vietnam War, with Americans plucked from the roof of the U.S. Embassy as enemy troops poured into Saigon. He said Bush wants to avoid such a stain on the end of his presidency.

"They would not be the ones who would have to deal with the reality of picking people up off the roofs of the embassy," said Biden, a Delaware senator and presidential candidate.

Biden, who heads the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Congress will launch hearings on the Iraq war the first week it's back in session. He rejected Bush's assertion that an increase in the number of troops has improved the situation in Iraq.

Speaking at a news conference, Biden called for a diplomatic offensive that would reach out to major industrial nations as well as Iraq's neighbors.

"It's long past the time we make Iraq the world's problem, not our own," he said.

Earlier in the day, Bush defended his war strategy in a speech to veterans and warned that a withdrawal of troops would threaten the United States. But Biden said Democrats and Republicans have concluded that the president's Iraq policy is doomed - he compared it to the Bush administration's response to Hurricane Katrina.

"The president continues to suffer from what I refer to as the Katrina complex," he said. "The Katrina complex is, ignore all the warnings, bad things happen, continue to follow the same bad, failed policy and things get worse and worse. That's exactly what this policy is doing to us."

Biden said a series of reports have refuted the claim that Iraq was somehow related to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

"That should put to rest once and for all the false refrain that President Bush keeps repeating and repeated today," he said.

is bush a member of this site? lol

I think this could get interesting after Labor day!
Especially with the bushys falling like domino's.

The key to the end is Gonzales resigning! No more top law dog protecting Bush's actions from investigations!

the democraps would have us believe that the people hate bush, dont support"his" war, ect. ect. ect. but wheres the polls to support thier assertions? its just retoric.

May 5, 2007 - It’s hard to say which is worse news for Republicans: that George W. Bush now has the worst approval rating of an American president in a generation, or that he seems to be dragging every ’08 Republican presidential candidate down with him. But According to the new NEWSWEEK Poll, the public’s approval of Bush has sunk to 28 percent, an all-time low for this president in our poll, and a point lower than Gallup recorded for his father at Bush Sr.’s nadir. The last president to be this unpopular was Jimmy Carter who also scored a 28 percent approval in 1979. This remarkably low rating seems to be casting a dark shadow over the GOP’s chances for victory in ’08. The NEWSWEEK Poll finds each of the leading Democratic contenders beating the Republican frontrunners in head-to-head matchups.

Normally Id call this old news, May 7, 2007, but believe me, the numbers have not gotten any better!!

Maybe you should copy it this time.

Hi fanta!!!!!...how ya doin babydoll?! and the lil puppychow?? give her a bone for me!

Hey Barbie - how you doing lil'sis?

Polls are a useful ploy to interject one's own ideas and spew out a personal agenda.

What, no poll details? How many people were contacted? I didn't get that call, did you? A few thousand people does not a poll make. Newsweek is reputable, whenever they are reporting actual happenings - uh, within their viewpoint arena.

More rhetoric.

"Just 'cause it's writ' down, don't make it so."

So I posted the numbers!! No comment, to his credit, but then the Bushies come out with full-blown blinders, (the new ones), and state the poll numbers lie!!

Everything your heart desires is there, all the methods and the control group used!

Take the blinders off first, it helps!
Then look at all the polls and you'll see they all record the same thing!

Heck just talk to people outside the small majority of blind neo-cons yall hang with and they'll tell you!

Blinders first though! OK
