Inquiring
minds are flabbergasted over the latest comments from Vice President Joe
Biden: ‘We Have to
Go Spend Money to Keep From Going Bankrupt’
Vice
President Joe Biden told people attending an AARP town hall meeting that
unless the Democrat-supported health care plan becomes law the nation will go
bankrupt and that the only way to avoid that fate is for the government to
spend more money.
“And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the
president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not
acceptable,” Biden said at the event on Thursday in Alexandria, Va.
“It’s totally unacceptable. And it’s completely
unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It
can’t do it financially.”
“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation,” Biden said.
“Now, people when I say that look at me and
say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have
to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said.
“The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you.”
This
is reminiscent of the My Lai massacre and the destruction of various Vietnamese villages
in the Vietnam War.
An American major after the destruction of the Vietnamese
Village Ben Tre: "It became necessary to destroy the village in order to
save it."
On March 16, 1968, a company of U.S. soldiers went into the village of My Lai
4, in Vietnam. A soldier later testified, "The order we were given was
to kill and destroy everything that was in the village. It was clearly
explained that there were to be no prisoners."
"We met no resistance and I only saw three captured weapons. We had
no casualties. It was just like any other Vietnamese village-old papa-sans,
women and kids," a soldier said describing what they found on entering
My Lai. "As a matter of fact, I don't remember seeing one military-age
male in the entire place, dead or alive."
The U.S. soldiers started killing everyone in sight. A U.S. soldier later
testified:
"There was an old lady in a bed and I believe there was a priest in
white praying over her... [U.S. Lt.] Calley pulled the old man outside. He
said a few more words to the monk. It looked like the monk was pleading for
his life. Lt. Calley then took his rifle and pushed the monk into a rice
paddy and shot him point-blank."
Lt. Calley was the only soldier convicted of any of the atrocities that took
place at My Lai. Despite being convicted of killing over 100 unarmed
Vietnamese, Calley served only two days in jail! Nixon then ordered him put
under house arrest at Fort Benning, where he could live in a nice apartment,
cook his own food, receive guests, watch TV and go to town for supplies
(accompanied by MPs). Calley was released from house arrest in just over
three years and was able to make large amounts of money speaking to
right-wing groups.
Biden's
comments are also right up there with President Bush who abandoned
free-market principles to save the economy. Please consider Bush says
sacrificed free-market principles to save economy.
US
President George W. Bush said in an interview Tuesday he was forced to
sacrifice free market principles to save the economy from
"collapse."
"I've abandoned free-market principles to
save the free-market system," Bush told CNN television, saying he had
made the decision "to make sure the economy doesn't collapse."
"I am sorry we're having to do it," Bush said.
