Looking back on the contradictory pronunciamentos uttered by President Joe Biden so solemnly over the last few months on the subject of Afghanistan, what has struck me is how inane they show him to be. When he was affirming that everything in Kabul, Afghanistan, was hunky-dory or when he was sounding the alarm, he was inane. His statements were vacuous. How did this man become president of the United States?
Oh, I know he was up against an amazingly weak field of candidates. For a period of time some of the candidates even competed with each other in using the F-word. They used it for emphasis and to convey sincerity, while campaigning for the highest office in the land. Actually, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand won that competition, relying on variations of the F-word on at least four occasions along with lesser gutter terms. Poor Beto O’Rourke could not compete with her in gutter lingo, but he did come in second in the competition with the F-word. He summoned the courage to use it twice, once on national television. Bravo, Beto! Biden never used the word, my research staff tells me, though his wife used it. Jill Biden was defending her husband against Kamala Harris, who was then a candidate for president. Biden reportedly told candidate Harris “Go f—- yourself.” Jill is really sincere.
In reviewing Biden’s recent statements, I see that he has apparently given up plagiarism, at least for a while. Though at a moment like this in Afghanistan, it might help if he filched a line or two from Winston Churchill or Charles de Gaulle. As president, Biden has failed at everything he has tried except sartorially. He looks like a statesman. Unfortunately, he is a dud. The former CIA head and former President Barack Obama’s secretary of Defense, Bob Gates, took Biden’s measure years ago when he wrote in his memoirs that “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue for the past four decades.” Ever since Bill Casey headed CIA, I have kept an eye on Gates. Casey told me he was going to be a prodigy, and he has not let us down. While he was at the CIA, I visited with him regularly. He is incapable of coming to an unintelligent conclusion. Why is Bob in retirement and 78-year-old Biden still holding forth, this time from the White House?
When Biden came into the White House a few months ago, the country was struggling with the pandemic, but otherwise it was in pretty good shape. In fact, it seemed we even had the pandemic about under control. Former President Donald Trump handled Warp Speed quite well. The economy was humming along, and unemployment was under control. In fact, Black unemployment was at record lows, and it looked like Blacks might be facing a new reality, not Black unemployment but Black prosperity brought on by the bountifulness of capitalism.
Yet suburban women had decided that they did not like the former president’s manners. His language appalled them. What they thought of Gillibrand’s and O’Rourke’s language I do not know, but they were appalled by Trump. Well, the suburban women and the never-Trumpers were successful at the ballot box. Trump is gone. What do the ladies and the never-Trumpers think of the hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens sauntering across our southern border, often with COVID-19? How do they like the news from the Democratic-controlled cities? What do they think about higher prices in the stores and the news of inflation? And what about Afghanistan? On all these matters Biden has no solution. He even pretends they are not his problem. What he really wants to do is outspend the New Deal. That will be his achievement in history. He outspent Franklin Delano Roosevelt while Afghanistan fell and our alliances unraveled.
Biden was elected with a very small majority. He has no mandate. You would think he was elected by a Rooseveltian landslide. He promises an expanded government that would make the old New Dealers jealous. His every move is a prelude to disaster. He is the most ineffectual president in my lifetime. Carter is redeemed. Obama is forgiven. And here is how he exonerated himself Saturday as the Taliban roared into Kabul, “One more year, or five more years, of U.S. military presence would not have made a difference if the Afghan military cannot or will not hold its own country.” At the time, the Afghans were still fighting.

” How did this man become president of the United States”? Voter fraud, censorship and the sheep, like the suburban women who were stupid enough to vote for a man with dementia and voters who were stupid enough to vote for a communist. The “useful idiots” who voted for Joe are brainless! Now we are witnessing the total destruction of our Country. When is China going to take over our Country, as our Country is now in the last stages of metastatic cancer, because of the deep state, Big Tech and the communist cable stations.
Don’t forget all the brainless idiots, who voted for him, cause they thought “Orange man bad”…
Jimmy Carter Is Redeemed”—and perhaps Obama??
“Oh, I know he was up against an amazingly weak field of candidates. For a period of time some of the candidates even competed with each other in using the F-word.” That may have been an omen of what was to come for the country and its people. Though crass, it may well be the operative word for the Biden administration and its policies.
If you want to be street language blunt about it—we the people and America are on the receiving end of the “F” word by Joe Biden and company. We have certainly reached the depths of the quagmire of depravity with the current Democrat Party. If this is how they have to express themselves and their intentions, then we know what we are dealing with.
OBAMA is probably controlling biden, so HE certainly isn’t redeemed..
Jimmy Carter was, at the time, the worst president in American history. He was indecisive and militarily weak. He did nothing whatsoever to stop the Iranian hostage problem. I though no one would ever be even worse. I was oh so wrong.
Slick Willie had zero morals but otherwise his administration was relatively mild.
Obama made Carter look like a superhero by comparison. Obama was born in Kenya, was trained as a Moslem, then he fully embraced communism. Again, surely no one could be worse, right? NO.
Obama’s VP was given the presidency by a cabal of election fraudsters and we are now suffering from Biden being totally disconnected from reality and lead by the nose directly down the path into communism. Biden took a minor illness, covid, and blew it out of proportion and labeled it a pandemic “requiring” face masks (with large openings throughout) and unproven experimental vaccines (made from immorally obtained fetal tissue) that, despite promises to the contrary, DO NOT WORK. The future will inevitably feature “booster shots” twice a year forever. Plus, the line of multi-trillion dollar government spending bills are designed to totally bankrupt America while dramatically increasing our debt to China. Biden’s lack of intelligence is already proven by the Afghanistan problem and this it only the tip of the iceberg as China ratchets up the pressure on America.
He became president because the election was rigged and stolen while everyone was crapping their pants over a fake virus and an unnatural demand for a vaccine that does nothing but make people sick.
Democrats used the oldest trick in the book to attain and now keep power: fear.
I said last year that there is no way they let up until after the midterms, and they will try to drag this BS virus out to 2024. And republicans and conservatives aren’t even demanding hard scientific proof that the virus was isolated and proven to cause disease, or even proof of “how it spread”. They just blindly accepted everything as being true and keep focusing on red herrings like BS, fake labs set up by Fauci, which were nothing but grant-hogs that never had any intention of doing ANY real research into anything, even bio-weapons.
Until we start asking real questions like, “why doesn’t the CDC have a physical isolated and purified SARS-Cov-2 virus in its possession” and “why are they calling a fragment of a fragment of a protein a ‘virus’?” then people like Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi can do whatever they want and we will all keep chasing our tails.
The part about the Election being “Rigged or Fraudulent” is 100% TRUE ! The Democrats know it, and so does every other person with an actual BRAIN that works. What you said that was NOT true, was the part about a “Fake Virus” ! This WAS a deadly virus, and there all plenty of REAL people who got the virus and DIED. Just this past week, 4 Police officers in my area got COVID and died, so PLEASE don’t say that this is a fake virus ! What I do believe, is that China, in its Wuhan Lab was responsible for this deadly virus, either accidentally, OR on purpose !
Yes, people have died. But it’s still a ‘Fake’ virus. Because the proven treatment for it has been all but banned. They don’t want a cure. They want fear. So, they’ve rigged the treatment so that more will die.
IMO That’s big Pharma, period.
ITS MORE profitable, to TREAT all these diseases and sicknesses, AS YOU HAVE TO keep coming back to them year after year after year, than it ever is to cure the disease.. THAT IS WHY we have literally spent 60+ years, and Trillions of dollars “Fighting Cancer”…
Yes, fear is an evil tool used by evil people.
I said when this (essentially fake) problem arose that:
1. It is unlikely that I will be infected.
2. If I do become infected, it is unlikely that I will become sick.
3. If I do get sick, it is unlikely that I will need to go to a hospital.
4. If I do need a hospital, I will likely get well soon.
5. Even if a die, my eternal home in heaven is guaranteed.
Others can and will be filled with fear but I will live free of masks, free of covid shot(s), free of fear, free to live my life as my God has entitled me to do just as was written into America’s Founding Documents.
I urge YOU to live free.
AND why are they calling those who ‘have covid in their system’, but are NOT SYMPTOMATIC, to be a “Case of covid”, when BY the wording, a “CASE of X disease” NORMALLY means someone IS Symptomatic!
“How did this man become president of the United States?”
We all know EXACTLY how this happened. So, this ‘Mystery’ (if it ever was one) has been solved. The much more important question, which has yet to be answered, is ‘What are we going to do about it?’
How did he get elected?
He cheated!
Israel released a study of over 6 million people that showed Natural Immunity from having covid was at least as good and at least as long lasting as any vaccine.
They did not even vaccinate known recovered people.
But here in the USA, there is never a peep about natural immunity when it comes to the “passports” and other restrictions on us.
It’s all about the vaccine. I wonder why??
Control. Pure and simple.
The virus is only a tool to justify a vaccine.
The vaccine is only a tool to justify a passport.
The passport is only a tool to control and eventually enslave Americans.
The slavery is only a tool to limit resistance to the New World Order.
The New World Order is only a prelude to the anti-christ and the ultimate eternal damnation of mankind.
They cheated on the election so they could install someone that would cause the American people to lose heart and feel hopeless. Who “they” are? Exactly who? Too hidden at present. But, its evident that its a concerted effort by the one-world cabal.
Joe Biden would sell his soul for the power the position represents. They wish to use him as a dumb bomb.
THEY ALREADY SOLD their souls..
Biden became the fake president because the dummycrats shoved Tulsi out when she exposed ex porno star Harris for the fraud she is. Then it was a clear fix for senile Joe and the rest of the primary was all for show. Then there’s the stolen national election. Senile Joe did NOT win with any majority from living and existing voters. He lost by a landslide, but the dead and non existing people saved senile Joe’s fake election. I always thought the dummycrats couldn’t find a dumber person than Jimmy Carter or a bigger liar than Bill Clinton. When Oboob came along they found a guy who could out do both Carter and Clinton. Now they actually found a thieving worthless bag of raw sewage that’s even worse than Oboob. Makes a person wonder how low the dummycrats can go in the future. Could their next candidate have a social security number 666?
The capitulation of Afghanistan is Hussein Bozo’s Benghazi part II, his FINAL humiliation of the United States military and his usual ** to the world after every destructive successful move. Why is NO ONE talking about this right hand of Satan running the country instead of “poor old Joe & pathetic Camel Toe”???? WHY is no one asking the question??? WHY does NO ONE take him on???? This creep single handedly blew up the middle east during his first reign, gave an enemy $4 B and has single handedly destroyed America and STILL NO ONE talks about it. AMAZING!!!!!
“Well, the suburban women and the never-Trumpers were successful at the ballot box. Trump is gone….”
I suppose that’s as good a theory as the “Biden was the best candidate” theory. I am not convinced that this is how it happened. In case you were unaware of it, there are several strong cases pointing to fraud.
