Biden: "The truth is, we ... misread the economy"

.
Really?

Is it actually possible that one man who has risen to as high a position as Mr Biden, COULD BE THAT STUPID?

The man lives so constantly with his foot in his mouth, I have to wonder if it is possible that Pres. Obama selected Biden to be VP in order to have a comic relief lightening rod around him to deflect criticism.

This week alone he ...
Gives terrorists a green light in Iraq by saying violence could drive the US out;
Seems to give Israel the go ahead to attack Iran and
THEN he tells the ABC lapdog that the administration misread the economy.

Certainly "everyone" did not misread the economy; with people like Geithner and other foaming at the mouth "throw money at the problem" money managers in charge I honestly believe they didn't misread anything. In their voodoo economic plan to solve the problem, they are rabid social engineers who are steering the economy into, if not a soviet style state managed economy, then a state beholding one where major sections of prime industry and services must lick the fingers of political leaders to survive - though not likely prosper.

It is really too bad that between the greedy, self serving, Gordon Gekko imitators and Bud Fox wannabes, Wall Street Harvard Business school relative ethics idiots like Madoff and his ilke on one side and the politicians like Dodd and Rangel and boyfriend screwing Freddy & Fanny on the other, it's an economic perfect storm for the fall of the dollar and impoverishment of America.

I wonder what Ayn Rand would say?
