"We are leaving in 2014, period, and in the process, we're going to be saving over the next 10 years another $800 billion," Biden said. "We've been in this war for over a decade.

2014? Is that what I said....??? Maybe I wrote the 9 and it came out looking like a 4 in my speech notes.....

Playing world asshole cop is a lot of fun.
