Oh, I see the misunderstanding, when I suggest an education, I mean spend some time thinking things through...not a formal education [[still bizarre to take it the way you did though).

Oh, I see the misunderstanding, when I suggest an education, I mean spend some time thinking things through...not a formal education [[still bizarre to take it the way you did though).
When someone says that a "education with an open mind is in order", do you interpret that to mean that they are criticising your past education [[which they are unaware of)? Or do you take it to mean that they are suggesting that you rethink the subject at hand?
If you answered the former...that is bizarre on your part. The second interpretation is the most rational [[and least bizarre).
I think we need to focus this thread on Joe the Plumber, which is the only Joe [[actually Sam) out there with any interesting sound bites.
I hear he had one helluva time unclogging Brush Lintball's toilet this week- plugged it up Newt's Contract On America. :eek:
From the Joe Biden prophecy speech-
"Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy," said Biden to a roomful of donors."
"Remember I said it standing here, if you don't remember anything else I said," Biden continued. "Watch, we're going to have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.
"I promise you it will occur. As a student of history and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you it's going happen. I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate."
"I promise you, you all are going to be sitting here a year from now going, 'Oh my God, why are they there in the polls, why is the polling so down, why is this thing so tough?' We're going have to make some incredibly tough decisions in the first two years," said Biden. "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."
Telling the crowd to "gird their loins" for a bumpy beginning to the next presidential term, Biden said it wouldn't be initially apparent that the correct decisions are being made because "they're not likely to be as popular as they are sound. Because if they're popular, they're probably not sound."

Six months is about up. So far, Joe seems like just another false prophet with a foot in his mouth. President Obama continues to do well in popularity polls and will probably continue to do well as long as the blame for ongoing wars and the continuing economic decline can be blamed on Bush. Any clues as to what the "generated international crises" is to which Biden refers? Maybe Americans are just more placid than this 'student of history' anticpated.
Wait Oladub...I think you jumped the gun...look again and reassess your conclusions.
It is uncanny how accurate Joe was in this prophecy. It is not by chance, it could not be. He based his predictions based on what he knew/recently learned from Obama about his plans. The dire consequences of said plans are the crisis of which he speaks.
Um, because Joe Biden is intelligent enough to recognize a significant percentage of the American population are unintelligent, ingorant, shoot-from-the-hip boobs who don't understand a lick of economics or fiscal policy? Mind you, these are the same folks who can't balance a checkbook, but can get a $300,000 mortgage on a $35,000 income.
Yeah, I'd play the odds on that one too if I were Joe Biden.
Again, I reference H.L.Mencken: "No one ever went broke by underestimating the intelligence of the American public."
INtelligence has nothing to do with playing a hand too soon and tipping people off as to the planned corrupt agenda Obama and Biden had in store for everyone.
Back to the original topic...in hindsight, it is uncanny how prophetic [[not really prophetic, but foretelling based on advanced knowledge) Joe was.
6 months
Obama would be tested.
How could he know this [[a rhetorical question)?
AN answer to the rhetorical question: In talking with Obama, Biden recognized how radical he was and was informed in detail of what he [[Obama) planned to do. Anyone with a modicum of common sense would recognize how harmful these actions would be to the country on so many fronts, that said person would have to realize that this would constitute a test of the architect's ability to deceive the public.....Voila.
I am surprised that nobody else here recognizes this very important point.
We're not as interested in studying your navel as you are.
Not interested? Or in denial for fear of exposure of your core beliefs and blind faith in your Messiah...Obama?
Birds of a feather...applies to liberals on DYes as well I see.
