The irony of that graphic doesn’t escape me
It used to be Cheney would tell us in 2004 that if we pick Kerry, terraists will gonna get us. Now, the same idiocy comes from Obama’s campaign, courtesy of gaffe prone Biden.This video is showing us what was said vs what media allowed people to know
Update
And now Obama agrees with Biden
Obama, for his part, has made the demonstrably dumb decision to back-up Biden’s comments. Incredibly, Obama himself agreed that he would face a national security crisis soon after taking office: “The next President is going to be tested no matter who it is,” Obama said today, after earlier noting that he expects the next President to be “severely tested.”
Albright also agrees that we vote Obama, we die
Responding to last weekend’s comments by Obama’s vice presidential running mate Joe Biden — who said Obama would be tested within the first six months of his administration — Albright told CNN’’s John Roberts, “It’s just a statement of fact.
All righty then.
And it seems there was even more in those remarks
The outakes of his Sunday remarks don’t begin to capture the magnitude of what he said. After warning the crowd that there would be some sort of international incident – Biden could think of four or five scenarios – he told the donors: “We’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right.”
and it won’t be any better on the economy:
“I promise you, you all are gonna be sitting here a year from now going, ‘Oh my God, why are they there in the polls? . . . Why is this thing so tough? . . . I’m asking you now, be prepared to stick with us. Remember the faith you had at this point, because you’re going to have to reinforce us.
“There are gonna be a lot of you who want to go, ‘Whoa, wait a minute, yo, whoa, whoa, I don’t know about that decision.’ “
Interestingly enough, the media hid this from us – still is except got the lone column in the NY Post.

If Sarah Palin had said this every other news story would have been dropped for 9/11-like coverage of the Major Breaking News Story complete with endless replays and close-ups.
Instead, they airbrushed Biden’s remarks for the 6 o’clock snooze.
I remember Cheney telling us if we voted wrong we’d be hit. I also remember the theory that Cheney’s experience made up for Bush’s lack of it. Cheney and his advisors were going to keep the greenhorn on track. We all know how well that turned out.
Love the picture of those two.
