“Which of the Three Is It?” … Again


Last week I wrote about Joe Biden comments on and after his Europe/NATO trip, and especially on his answers to questions from Peter Doocy after he had returned to the U.S. Amazingly, Joe adamantly denied making statements that were caught on video. Basically, I said that President Biden was either a liar, extremely forgetful bordering on senility, or not in charge. (See “www.californiacontrarian.com” on 3/31/22) 

Well under the guise of honesty, I must tell you that one of my most frequent readers thought I was being much too tough on Joe Biden … “give him a break!” Further pointing out that he may well have been jet-lagged, and may have been flustered and nervous taking live questions from reporters. (questions that required ad lib answers that were not written on notecards.) Actually under that same guise of honesty, I will freely admit that both may have been true. He was probably jet-lagged, and he was probably flustered by having to actually answer questions, but, come on … “what the hell was he doing answering questions if either of the above were influencing his ability to provide straight forward truthful answers?”

Why didn’t he just fall back on one of his old standbys, as he has done multiple times in the past … “they told me that I was not supposed to answer answer any questions.”

And “no,” I was not being too tough on him! 

He is supposed to speak for the U.S.! Looking like a fool, jet-lagged or not is not really good for anybody, not the U.S, not our allies, and certainly not J.B. himself.

I bring this up today because of something that I read in a column by Marc Thiessen in the Washington Post

MARC THIESSEN: “I have a slightly different take than a lot of people on this. I think the walkback of Biden’s comment is much worse than the comment itself. First, it made Biden look incompetent, and second of all, it made America look weak. The idea that what he really meant to say was Putin shouldn’t be allowed to exercise power over the region? Everybody knows that’s not what he said. They heard the plain words of the president.”

 A slightly different take, indeed. Nonetheless, this ‘different take’ doesn’t change my conclusion in my 3/31 blog. If anything, Theissen’s opinion just further strengthens my view that Joe Biden is actually not the one in charge!
