Biden Gets Almost Every Detail Wrong In Speech To Veterans
Biden during the event on Friday also told a harrowing story about a member of the military who objected to having him pin a medal on him because one of his friends died in battle.
But just as he has before, Biden got a number of details wrong.
While Biden said it occurred in Iraq, it was actually in Afghanistan. He said he was asked to pin a Silver Star, but it was a Bronze Star. He claimed that the medal was awarded for going into a ravine and climbing about 150 feet up a hill. But the medal was actually awarded to a soldier who went into a burning vehicle to save his dying friend.
Biden told the anecdote at an event for veterans, focusing on their heroism and selflessness.
“In Vietnam — excuse me, in Iraq, I was up on the one of the points,” he said. “The [commanding officer] asked me if I would pin on a Silver Star because a young man on one of these points had one of his colleagues shot, fell down about, I guess, the equivalent of — I was out there at the point. It was, I guess, about 150 feet, not straight down, but a hill.”
“And this young man climbed down the hill, put a guy on his shoulder, and brought him back up and was shot at on the way up,” he continued. “And he got there and I went to present it to him, too. And he said, ‘I don't want it. I don't want it. He died. He died.’”
Biden told a similar version of that story during his presidential campaign in 2019. The Post, based on interviews with more than a dozen U.S. troops, their commanders, and Biden aides, reported at the time that it appeared as though Biden had jumbled elements of at least three actual events into one story that never happened.
But he is the most popular president ever... 81 million votes....LOL .... what a tone deaf moron they put in charge to keep a president stuck on stupid.
This certified idiot-in-chief is gonna celebrate his failed achievements before Christmas.
Biden Plans to 'Celebrate' His So-Called 'Great' Achievements Before Christmas ... Just some of his failed accompishments so far and still counting each day that he's in Office as president.
He has wreaked havoc on the southern border causing one of the worse US border crisis in American history. A big dog turd walking in shoes, Biden is the sole reason why americans are struggling to make ends meet as a 40 year high inflation sets in ... and not to mention he left behind hundreds of americans amid his botched Afghanistan withdrawal he thinks was great.
Maybe, Mr. No brain Biden, should address the American people & apologize for all the things he has gotten wrong. Mr. No brain Biden will brag about how he's gotten more done in two years than any president since FDR. Merry Christmas America & enjoy all Biden has done for us.
The "positive economic numbers" will be revised significantly down in a few months when nobody is paying attention. See: my post where the Philly fed revised down jobs growth of 1.1 million to 11,000.Dark Brandon can’t wipe his own ass without assistance and the positive economic numbers are happening in spite of his dumbassery not because of it.
...but I'm sure that was an honest mistake. You mean that it makes a difference where that decimal is placed?The "positive economic numbers" will be revised significantly down in a few months when nobody is paying attention. See: my post where the Philly fed revised down jobs growth of 1.1 million to 11,000.
Hmmm. I suspect you're right. They aren't the only celebrity or government figures who do this. But you know, at least his wife isn't refusing to hold his hand. Which, like a certain fat, toupee coloring guy, indicated that even his wife doesn't like him.
Being my in-laws are in Belarus, we have not had that problem.Wife used to break us every Christmas buying for her brother, cousins, aunts, uncles, mom, dad, stepparents and of course our kids. Plus her parents would always fight about every damn minute of her and the kids time so one Christmas (99 or 2000) we down in Little Rock and Christmas morning an argument started over what time we will be where and the wife started crying. I told her and the kids to pack up, we're leaving, got into a huge fight with her dad when he told me I couldn't take his daughter home. He lost, we got home that afternoon and had a pretty decent Christmas, haven't been back since for any holiday and they started drawing names for gifts.
Sometimes a good fight with the inlaws fixes a lot of problems.
