Biden Reveals Location of Secret VP Bunker

Divulging classified information to anyone without a need to know is a criminal offense. Anyone who has ever held a security clearance knows this. The VP has commited a criminal offense and should be brought up on charges and sent to prison.

Good thing he didn't do this...:doh
 
Precisely, the "slap them in the face with a red herring while I dance myself off the stage and out of the spotlight."
Don't let the door hit ya.... :lol:

According to a report, while recently attending the Gridiron Club dinner in Washington, an annual event where powerful politicians and media elite get a chance to cozy up to one another, Biden told his dinnermates about the existence of a secret bunker under the old U.S. Naval Observatory, which is now the home of the vice president.


The information about the location of this bunker is classified, is it not? The media personnel which he divulged the location of said bunker do not have the security clearance and the need to know required. Therefor Biden broke the law and should be prosecuted.

The law is black and white. sorry but there are no shades of grey when it comes to the security of classified information.

Please tell me where I am wrong.

Maybe you should let your conservative buddy Mr. V. know that since he was the one who brought it up first.

I was contrasting Lerxst hyper-partisan smoke screen of Biden's blunder with another comparable instance in the news. I.E. the Plame event, which was screamed about for endangering national security. Yet Biden does it and "oh everyone knew..."

We'll see how this plays out. I'm sure there are things about the Presidents bunker in the White House are classified, but that doesn't mean that talking about it's existence is classified.

I want to see what specific information Biden actually released that was considered classified.

Talking about its existance and disclossing its location are two different things.

No, the Plame event was screamed about because it exposed her identity and the nature of her job. It was screamed about because the Wilson's screamed it was a deliberate act of retaliation against Joe Wilson's criticism of the Bush administration. It didn't threaten national security and neither did this.

Further, there was no "hyper-partisan smoke screen" here. Have you lost it? Nothing in my post was even remotely partisan. Show me one part of my post that was partisan, let alone hyper partisan. Do you know the definition of the word "partisan"?

Good god man, you're off the rails as of late.

I agree, is the location of the bunker actually "classified" as defined by the law?
 
I don't see in the article where the bunker under the VP's house is THE secret VP bunker. It seems Biden just mentioned there is a bunker under his house, not that it is THE secret VP bunker.

If it is the secret VP bunker then we have more serious problems with security then Biden's gaffes. A top-secret bunker to hold the VP and or President in times of crisis shouldn't be located at their residence. It should be in a secluded place that no one would know it was there.

Where is the top secret Presidential bunker? Under the west wing of the White House? No one would ever think of looking there...:roll:

I agree, these bunkers should be in a location seperate from the residence of the POTUS and VPOTUS. A securied classified location.

Biden has loose lips, he can not be trusted with sensitive information.

I couldn't imagine it not being classified.

Well I won't assume the specifics yet, I want to see more information on what he actually said and what the status of this particular "secret bunker" really is.

And this is really my point. Biden calling it a secret bunker is not the same as it being the actual secret operations center for the VP in a time of emergency. It just said that Cheney worked out of it. Well I can see that, why wouldn't the VP have a secure room(s) in his house from which to securely communicate in times of crisis?

I would assume that these already existed to begin with. It just makes sense.
 
If there is anyone here who did not believe there was a bunker under the VP's home, please raise your hand.

:2wave:


I didn't know there was one at that location until Biden said there was.

"Loose Lips Sink Ships"


//////////
BTW I wonder if the "well its ok, who cares" types would be a-ok if Biden outlined the security for Obama in the event of a terrorist attack on DC(where he will go, how, etc)
...think the enemy would be interested?

This is one of many reasons why I don't trust the left on anything related to maters of national Security..
They take secrets reveal them or hear of them and then deny it matters.

Yeah because that is exactly what Biden did. You're so silly sometimes.

You make me giggle.

:rofl
 
So what, he was under no obligation to respond to it.

So basically you didn't care if the thread was derailed first by a conservative, you were just had to comment later on a liberal continued it and call it off topic. Got it, feigned outrage.

I don't think he has loose lips. He has politically incoorect lips that give him a negative light in terms of the populace. I haven't see Biden say anything that has revealed any sensitive/secret information. All the gaffe's I can think of have only hurt his personal politically correctness credibility and not security.
 
Foolish? Be polite? Why? It's nice the way you minimize what he did.
Why do you try to over dramatize what he did?

You obviously don't give much of a **** about national security.
This doesn't affect "national security." So I suppose I could say "You obviously don't know much of a **** about national security."
Trying to smoke screen wrong doing as usual, how do you sleep at night?
"Wrong doing?" Please, show us the specifics of the "wrong doing" here.

You seem to have a pattern of this. Why can't you admit when the guy broke security.
Can you explain how exactly he "broke security?" What do you even mean "broke security?"

Biden is pathetic.
:roll:

True. It depends on what information was deemed classified. I would guess that the location is, but that's just a guess. I've seen classified plans before where the code name for the operation was classified.

Actually, from a security standpoint it would make sense for there to be bunkers at the VP's residence and the White House, in the event of a situation where transporting them to another location is too risky.

And that's another point I'm getting at. This isn't a surprise at all. Any bad guy that wasn't intelligent and reasonable enough to assume this is probably too stupid to actually hatch a plan for taking out the VP anyway. It's called "continuity of government."

People act like he has jeopardized national security somehow, I'm still waiting for the "somehow" to show up.

Change Biden to Cheney and all your buts vanish...
If Biden wasn't attached to Obamas ass all your buts vanish....
You've even gone so far as to act like you always knew it was there.

//////////////



Now learn to comprehend what you read.

I said-

I didn't know about this until Biden told about it. I added the line "loose lips sink ships" because once a secret like this is out..the ship is sunk.


I then seperated that comment on this instance with ///////// and made a comment overall about the left and their flippant dismissal(as displayed by you) of anything like this.


So giggle it up get slapped on the ass by posters who do the same, mock people..call me a NEOCON!.....it matters not at all to me. I'll simply use it to repeat what I said and why.





I notice this more and more form many(not all) posters here..instead of bothering to reply to what a person says for what they said they either play extreme word technicalities or simply mock anyone who disagrees with their vaunted opinion.

Not impressed.

Releasing classified material, assuming this was classified, is always a threat to national security. Many people might suspect that there was a bunker under the VP's residence, but now that they know for sure, it narrows the focus of any type of planning that an adversary might be planing. We'll see if any more details are released.

Regardless, this was a dumb move by the VP.
