Biden recycles debunked “shot at” claim of 10 years ago in press conference

Sniper fire in Bosnia? Fucking liars, all of the Democrats are insane.



The president stirred controversy when he made the initial claim of being shot at over a decade ago, and later had to walk it back.

During a Democratic presidential debate in 2007, Biden disclosed that he’d been "shot at" inside Baghdad’s fortified Green Zone. "Let’s start telling the truth," he said. "Number one, you take all the troops out — you better have helicopters ready to take those 3,000 civilians inside the Green Zone, where I have been seven times and shot at. You better make sure you have protection for them, or let them die, number one."

He amended that later, saying the quarters he was staying in while visiting the Green Zone in 2005 shook from a nearby blast, and "I was near where a shot landed." He said that he'd been in three near-shooting instances, and in one instance, a shot had landed outside the building where he and other senators were staying. He added that the vehicle he was traveling in the day before might have also been hit.

Biden said the incident wasn't threatening enough to take cover. "No one got up and ran from the room—it wasn’t that kind of thing," he said. "It’s not like I had someone holding a gun to my head."

    Why tell such easily debunked lies? I realize his media will cover for him, but fawning media coverage turns people off when it’s so obvious.

    Like the Dazzler, Joe is one of those guys who has repeated a lie enough times that he now believes it to be true. You know that he has repeated the story about being arrested going to meet Mandela, his wife being killed by a drunk driver, being shot at in Iraq, hundreds and hundreds of times before and now he believes them.

    At this point, given the quality of his brain I doubt Joe has a clear handle on where the truth end and the fantasy life he created begins. I'll bet if you got him going he'd tell all of his old lies about graduating at the top of his class on a full academic scholarship, you know that was a lie he'd been telling people for 20 years before he was busted for it.

    Three degrees and top of his class!

    Biden could have been cool. He’s the son of a car salesman did not grow up super rich. He was ashamed of it though and started making up so many lies, such as playing football at Delaware State, a HBCU he never attended.

    I met him in 1987 in a room with about 25 people in Des Moines, Iowa. He was a gregarious bull-shitter. I didn't hate him when I met him. But he was every bit the glad handing politician who saw himself as Bobby Kennedy lite.

    Biden is a sad old confused man.

    The problem is that in their all out effort to remove trump the Dems have made promises they can't keep. They know he's the fall guy but the problem is that harris is the most unlikeable politician there is.
