From the NY Post:

Joe Biden warned that America’s enemies would test Barack Obama with an international crisis within six months if he’s elected…

So let me get this straight. We are supposed to vote for a guy whose running mate is guaranteeing that we will have to face an international crisis from our enemies (i.e., terrorists) within six months after he is elected?

Madeleine Albright then chimed in with support of Joe Biden’s statement.

The inference from Biden’s and Albright’s remarks are that terrorists see an Obama presidency as soft — a good time to attack the United States. In other words, terrorists don’t believe that Obama will use our military to punish them as Bush did.

This is the point: Biden is suggesting that the terrorists are going to attack to determine Obama’s response. The terrorists know what McCain’s response will be. If Obama doesn’t stick with the Bush’s foreign policy (how can he and continue to have support from his base?), the terrorists will know that they have carte blanche to resume plans for attacks on American interests and possible on American soil. From all of Obama’s statements, we have a good idea that his response is going to be a diplomacy only response, which translates into more attacks.

Given Biden’s prediction, which is the better candidate for keeping us out of international crises and being attacked by terrorists?

A vote for Obama/Biden is to vote for another terrorist attack, and probably more than one.
