Joe Biden with a scary prediction

ABC News report that:
"Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen. Barack Obama., D-Ill., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power and he will need supporters to stand by him as he makes tough, and possibly unpopular, decisions.

"Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. "It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."

"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities."
Oh super, what can we look forward to Joe? Russia invading the currently independent Baltic countries? Al-Qaeda/Taliban attacks on US and British bases in Iraq, Afghanistan and/or Cyprus? Iran launching a missile attack on Israel? Hamas/Hezbollah setting off dirty bombs in Tel Aviv? Al Qaeda setting off dirty bombs in New York, Washington, London?

I really don't like the way the rest of this decade is shaping up... Where would be safe to sit it out?

If Barack is elected, he would do well to avoid grassy knolls.
