Biden promises world crisis immediately after Obama elected
By Sher Zieve
In a rare moment of candor from a politician, Barack Obama's vice presidential candidate Democrat Senator Joe Biden told the truth. At a Seattle fundraiser on Sunday 19 October, Biden issued this dire warning to the American people and the world: "Mark my words, it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama..." and "remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."
Biden went on the say: "I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate. And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you, not financially to help him, 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."
This is a chilling revelation from the man who is running with the Left's secular messianic figure. Although one cannot be certain, perhaps Biden — unlike all too many of his colleagues — still retains some glimmer of care for and belief in the country. He knows what will happen if Barack Obama becomes president of the United States. He is simply the first Democrat — since Obama's nomination — to realistically voice it. And Joe Biden is preparing the country for what will prove to be a nightmare scenario when Barack Obama is elected president of the United States. Apparently, Biden wants to ensure that — early on — he was able to get in his "I told you so."
This is stark reality, folks, and the mainstream media print rags as well as the Obama-supporting broadcast usual suspects — NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC etc. — are avoiding any reportage on this.
With their lack of reporting, the media is now telling us that both we and the death of the country are of no concern — whatsoever — to them. This is due to their own liberal guilt and suicidal tendencies, I suspect. But, the media appears to have made the decision that we will not be well-served with and by the truth — something they have been saying for years. I also suspect that many if not most of these liberal elites see the same terrifying consequences as Biden. However, they believe they will — somehow — be immunized from the cataclysmic events that will follow the election of Obama. They also know that this same catastrophe will not occur if John McCain is elected.
If you are currently an Obama/Biden fan, would it not serve you well to pay attention to what your own VP candidate is saying? The rest of us already knew it. In this, we are all together. If we — left, right or somewhere in-between — refuse to pay attention to that reality that is in front of our faces, we will not survive.
