			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From the NY Post:</p>
<blockquote><p>Joe Biden warned that America&#8217;s enemies would test <a href="http://www.nypost.com/news/p/obama_barack/obama_barack.htm">Barack Obama</a> with an international crisis within six months if he&#8217;s elected&#8230;</p></blockquote>
<p>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?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD_EAe1N9-M" target="_blank">Madeleine Albright</a> then chimed in with support of Joe Biden&#8217;s statement.</p>
<p>The inference from Biden&#8217;s and Albright&#8217;s remarks are that terrorists see an Obama presidency as soft &#8212; a good time to attack the United States. In other words, terrorists don&#8217;t believe that Obama will use our military to punish them as Bush did.</p>
<p>This is the point: Biden is suggesting that the terrorists are going to attack to determine Obama&#8217;s response. The terrorists know what McCain&#8217;s response will be. If Obama doesn&#8217;t stick with the Bush&#8217;s foreign policy (how can he and continue to have support from his base?), the terrorists will know that they have <em>carte blanche</em> to resume plans for attacks on American interests and possible on American soil. From all of Obama&#8217;s statements, we have a good idea that his response is going to be a diplomacy only response, which translates into more attacks.</p>
<p>Given Biden&#8217;s prediction, <strong>which is the better candidate for keeping us out of international crises and being attacked by terrorists?</strong></p>
<p>A vote for Obama/Biden is to vote for another terrorist attack, and probably more than one.</p>
