Clueless Joe: This Whole Taliban Thing Is Above My Pay Grade

One day Barack Obama declares Afghanistan is lost and it's time to break bread with the Taliban. The next day Joe Biden steps in and demonstrates he has no idea what the hell he's talking about.
Talking with Taliban moderates in Afghanistan is a tactic "worth exploring," US Vice President Joe Biden said at NATO headquarters in Brussels Tuesday.

"It's worth exploring. The idea of what concessions would be made is well beyond the scope of my being able to answer," said Biden, who earlier held talks with NATO Secretary General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer and alliance nations.
In other words, he has no idea what to do.
"We are here to consult, we are here to listen. We are here to come up with a joint common strategy," Biden told the North Atlantic Council, the alliance's top decision-making body.

"Once that is arrived at, what the United States expects is that everyone keeps whatever commitment were made in arriving at that joint strategy. It's as simple and straightforward as that."
So simple an imbecile like Joe Biden can handle it.
