Joe Biden LIES To Americans, BACKFIRES Immediately

He got what he deserved…

Former Vice President Joe Biden is being hammered by mainstream media outlets and even former President Obama's chief strategist David Axelrod after falsely claiming he opposed the Iraq War as a senator.

Axelrod tweeted Thursday evening: "It's one thing to have a well-earned rep for goofy, harmless gaffes. It's another if you serially distort your own record. @JoeBiden is in danger of creating a more damaging meme."

When Did Joe Biden Start Believing He Had Opposed the Iraq War?

Biden's claim to have been antiwar is even weirder and more ahistorical than it seems at first.

 

Biden first made the claim that he opposed the Iraq War "immediately" after it began during an NPR interview.

Biden claimed that then-President George W. Bush promised him he was not going to war in Iraq and needed his vote to get inspectors into the country.

"He got them in, and before we know it, we had a shock and awe. Immediately, the moment it started, I came out against the war at that moment," he said.

During the NPR interview Biden also defended his efforts to withdraw all U.S. troops from Iraq in 2011.

"When the president and I — President Obama and I won, we sat there and the entire national security team came in and said, well, we have a plan for Iraq. And the president turned and said, no, Joe will handle Iraq. Work with Joe. So from that point on, he gave me the objective of getting American combat troops out of Iraq, which we did. And it was the right decision," he said.

Glossing over the rise of ISIS, he continued, "And – but we also – I was asked to help put together a coalition of 65 countries to deal with al-Qaida, and I was able to do that."

His comments were so blatantly false, NPR's Asma Khalid provided an instant fact-check:

Biden told us that he opposed the war in Iraq from the moment it started, but the reality is murky. His campaign clarifies that he was critical of the Bush administration's strategy and intelligence failures early on. But Biden stood by his vote authorizing force in Iraq for a while after the war began. In public comments made months after the invasion, he said he would have voted the same way again. Biden publicly said his vote was a mistake as early as 2005, but not immediately when the war began in 2003.

The fact-checking website Politifact ruled Biden's comments as "False." It said: "Is it true that Biden immediately came out against the war the moment it started? No." It added:

Biden's recounting of his position doesn't match the public comments he made right before and after the war started. During that time, Biden acknowledged frustrations with how the United States was heading into war, but said he supported the president. Biden for years stood by his vote for a resolution that paved the way for the war, even though he also criticized the Bush administration's strategy — saying the United States went to war too soon, without enough troops, and without enough countries supporting the effort.
