Biden; Another Tall Tale (voting, Congress, Republican, president)

Biden Played Less Than Key Role in Bosnia Legislation - washingtonpost.com

During last week's debate with his counterpart on the Republican ticket, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Biden twice gave himself credit for shifting U.S. policy on Bosnia. The senator from Delaware declared that he "was the catalyst to change the circumstance in Bosnia led by President Clinton." At another point he noted: "My recommendations on Bosnia -- I admit I was the first one to recommend it. They saved tens of thousands of lives."

But, despite the bravado, Biden was not a key player in the legislation that ultimately forced Bill Clinton to lift an arms embargo imposed by the United Nations on Bosnian Muslims fighting the Serbs, according to congressional officials involved in the issue and a review of Biden's speeches and voting record.

Ohhhh,say it ain't so Joe! Another embellishment from the gaffe-master.

Judging from the inconsistencies from both Biden and Palin the VP debate was a waste. Neither was very truthful and the winking should be an embarrassment to all women and Repubs alike. 4 more long years people.....regardless of who wins....we lose

I could care less who winks, spits or farts, the VP isn't who I'm afraid of, it's their boss!
