The Art of the Iraq Housing Deal, Biden Style

[OldJourno]

Hey, I was so busy reading about Joe Biden's son Hoover and his exploits, I must have forgotten about brother James Biden, "whose construction firm received a contract worth more than a billion dollars to build houses in Iraq while Joe Biden oversaw the U.S.-led occupation of the country. The contract went to a company led by 'Joe Biden’s close family member, who, you guessed it, had no experience in the industry, and no experience in Iraq.'"

How in the world did this guy escape indictment over his near half-century of "service" (self- and family-enrichment)? Hoover is vacuuming up cocaine until he gets the boot out of the Navy, then flies AF II to Eastern Europe and China for all kinds of sleazy deals. Shit, he even took $3.5 million from the wife of the former mayor of Moscow.
There's your Russia connection.
How did he find time to knock up a stripper (and try to avoid child support - what an asshole)? Are there any morals in this family at all?
I don't think so.

The only sources that have run with this at all are right-wing rags like the Washington Examiner. That tells me all I need to know.

And I could address your points regarding Biden's son, but if you're not even going to use his real name...

I see you are from California. That tells me all I need to know.

 

[phrodeau]

Oh yes, Iraq. The other thing that the Bush admin broke and the Obama admin had to fix.

Nope, the location is a joke, which you ought to recognise if you haven't been living under a rock since 1985.

Nothing like a happy ending, huh?

You do understand you are engaged in an Ad hominem logic fallacy don't you? Or do you and don't care because you can't produce an argument against the accusation and need some way to redirect the discussion?

Yea, that's what I thought.

Do you think all three showed in Russia ?

I doubt Putin approved of the portrayal of his lapdog in Part II (no joke, Biff was inspired by Trump!).

LOL...Obama wrecked it worse than anyone.

Oh oh....let me guess you think his NPP was real??

He was "president drone strike" for a reason phro!!

He summarily executed a US citizen with the PATRIOT act and a drone.

Obama fixed Iraq....LMFAO!!! Put the Kool-Aid down, it's bad for you.

This is what all politicians do, though Obama seems to have done very little of it as maybe the only exception since Carter.

The issue is between self and family. I don't think favoritism and nepotism is illegal in this case...it is clearly unethical.

Biden should not have done this for sure.

Unequaled ignorance of law and reality.

I was reading about how Trump knew that Covid-19 was going to kill hundreds of thousands of people and he said "Sure, that's fine, let's do it!"

Remember how the GOP flipped a shit about the four people killed in Benghazi? It's like that except 51,250 times worse.

 

[LLCox]

Nepotism... I'm just {{{shocked}}} Thank gawd trump doesn't, oh wait.

 

[StrictMiss]

As opposed to Trump's Art of the Dildo?

Six bankruptcies under his belt and on his way to making us number seven.
