Biden: McCain judgement 'divorced from reality'


Sen. Joe Biden said Wednesday that John McCain’s judgment on national security is “dangerously wrong” and “divorced from reality.”

According to the prepared text of a speech Biden will give in Cincinnati, Ohio, Biden said McCain is “more than wrong -- he is dangerously wrong. On a question so basic, so fundamental, so critical to our nation’s security, we can’t afford a Commander-in Chief so divorced from reality and from America’s most basic national interests.”

“This week, John talked about the judgment required to be Commander in Chief. He’s right: nothing is more important than judgment,” Biden said. “But time and again, on the most critical national security issues of our time, John McCain’s judgment was wrong.”

“John McCain continues to insist, against all the evidence and all the facts, that Iraq is the central front in the war on terrorism… and not the mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan where the people who actually attacked us on 9-11 reside and are regrouping.”
