p> BEAU IDEAL br> Re: The Prowler's The Gal That Got Away : /p>

The political hay the Dems expect from Biden's son Beau's deployment to Iraq is totally bogus. He's a judge advocate general in the Delaware National Guard. A lawyer, for heaven's sake! Not some front line soldier.

Pretty risky deployment for Biden's son you say, huh? The only shooting Beau Biden is likely to experience are whiskey shots in the officers mess. Yet, you'll hear moans, groans and sighs from Biden (like why couldn't this son manage a lucrative lobbying and bank deal, like his brother?). Yet sending Beau Biden to Iraq is like sending a Frenchman to fight in an American outfit: more likely to shoot himself than the enemy. Best keep Beau (even his name is French) far from the front lines.

p>As for Biden as VP pick, this truly is a visionary match: Obama enrobed in his messianic mantra, Biden wearing his crown of hairplugs. Anointed in August...cries of "why have you forsaken me" in November. br> -- Wolf Terner br> Fair Lawn. New Jersey /p>

Two comments:

1. Democrats expect to exploit the upcoming deployment of Biden's son to Iraq? He is a JAG officer, and will be nowhere near being in harm's way. McCain has a son in the Marine Corps in harm's way. I don't think the Democrats would want to go there, but then, I'm not a Democrat...
