Maybe there is something to those rumors that Michelle Obama’s vegetable garden is laced with all sorts of nasty chemicals.

And if true, then it looks like Plugs Biden must have had one heaping, honking big bowl of veggie soup and probably went back for seconds in order to utter maybe the stupidest thing ever to pass his lips.

Which is truly saying something for the old Senate plagarizer. Just when you think he cannot top himself, he always manages to do so, time and again..

Appearing on the Larry King show, Biden this to say:

From the Larry King Show transcript: (Hat Tips: Sister Toldja and The LA Times Blog)

I am very optimistic about — about Iraq. I mean, this could be one of the great achievements of this administration. You’re going to see 90,000 American troops come marching home by the end of the summer. You’re going to see a stable government in Iraq that is actually moving toward a representative government.

I spent — I’ve been there 17 times now. I go about every two months — three months. I know every one of the major players in all the segments of that society. It’s impressed me. I’ve been impressed how they have been deciding to use the political process rather than guns to settle their differences.

Pretty amazing stuff. This from the man who wanted to partition Iraq into three separate sections, like a three year old cutting a Christmas pie and who also voted with Obama time after time to oppose the surge, defund the troops and the entire war effort.

Of course, when the surge produced better than expected results, Nostrabiden uttered this gut-buster.

“The fact of the matter is, the only thing succeeding in Iraq right now is the plan that Barack and I talked about that Petraeus is implementing … giving local control in the very areas with a limited central government.”

I am sure that Petraeus bowed to the superior knowledge and military experience of Biden, Obama and all of those 5-star Fantasy Generals that populate the Democratic leadership. Who knew?

Sister Toldja:

I’m clicking my heels together as fast as I can, chanting “there’s no place like home” because right now, the socialistic “leadership” coming out of Washington, DC makes me feel like I’m not living in the country I’ve loved all my life. The lies, the spin, the deception, the phony “outstretched hand” symbolic gestures are getting to be too much to stomach. None of this is more true than on the issue of the Iraq war, where both Obama and Biden’s mutual history of opposition should not be whitewashed, nor should they be allowed to get away with taking the credit for the success of a surge they opposed.

Betsey Newmark nails it:

In the fantasy world in which Joe Biden, and perhaps Barack Obama, are the stars of a saga of heroic battles for peace, justice and some other stuff like that what has happened in Iraq is a credit to “this administration.”

How about the previous administration whose policies in Iraq Biden and Barack Obama had endlessly criticized and voted against. They both opposed the surge that brought about the situation that Biden now wants to take credit for. And Biden’s big proposal was his dopey idea to divide Iraq into three separate territories. And if Obama had had his way, we would have pulled our troops out of there before Bush’s administration was even over. The only credit that “this administration” deserves is for not messing too much with the much improved situation that Bush fought to bring to Iraq.

What will Biden say next? That he was opposed to the stimulus before he voted for it?

Meanwhile, more important events are now unfolding in Iran and you hear nary a peep from the White House, the state-controlled media or Biden himself.
