Excuse Me While I Troll You: Actually, Joe Biden Was Right:
Published excerpts from former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates' upcoming memoir, Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War, have put Washington into a tingling tizzy this week. Chief among the minor bombshells that have been released are Gates' adjudication of the policies and positions advocated by Vice President Joe Biden. While Gates admits that the vice president was "a man of integrity," he was, to Gates' estimation, nevertheless "wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades."
Which is an extraordinary thing to say! It means that, as Gates calculates it, Biden stopped being a credible foreign policy voice about two years after he was first elected to the Senate.
