Biden: Republicans don’t care about special needs kids
Presumably, the “Sweetie” running on the other side of the ticket doesn’t love or care for her Down’s syndrome child. This is sleazy for even Greasy Joe’s standards:
Was Joe Biden referring to Sarah Palin, a mother of a child with Down syndrome, when he made this comment?
“I hear all this talk about how the Republicans are going to work in dealing with parents who have both the joy, because there’s joy to it as well, the joy and the difficulty of raising a child who has a developmental disability, who were born with a birth defect. Well guess what folks? If you care about it, why don’t you support stem cell research?”
Biden received a thunderous ovation when he made the remark at a town hall style meeting this morning in Columbia.
Good to see that Greasy Joe is listening to his #1′s suggestion that “kids are off limits” in the campaign.
I’m thinking that Sen. Infanticide doesn’t really want this “who cares about babies?” / “embryonic stem cell research” issue coming up right about now. If the cretin who opposed the Infants Born Alive Protection bill (for those of you on the left, that was Sen. Obabykiller) was content to let a Down’s syndrome baby die a slow death in a soiled utility closet, it’s safe to say he would have no qualms about killing such a baby in order to harvest his/her stem cells. Only in Liberal La-la-land does killing a baby to use its stem cells equate to caring for children.
Team McCain-Palin responds:
Barack Obama’s running mate sunk to a new low today launching an offensive debate over who cares more about special needs children. Playing politics with this issue is disturbing and indicative of a desperate campaign.
For the love of God, McCain, run with this sound bite…and run with it far and wide!
Exit question: Can Biden save himself by “confessing” that he’s a serial plagiarist and therefore stole the sickeningly offensive line from someone else?
Biden takes credit for Anbar Awakening
You just can’t make this stuff up! The same guy who proposed breaking Iraq into three different countries/regions is now claiming credit for the Anbar Awakening. From Commentary:
No. The surge helped make that–what made is possible in Anbar province is they did what I’d suggested two and a half years ago: gave local control. They turned over and they said to the Sunnis in Anbar province, “We promise you, don’t worry, you’re not going to have any Shia in here. There’s going to be no national forces in here. We’re going to train your forces to help you fight al-Qaeda.” And that you–what you had was the awakening. The awakening was not an awakening by us, it was an awakening of the Sunnis in Anbar province willing to fight.
Unfriggingbelievable! Dude is shameless in his lies, no?
Biden: Life begins at conception, but so what?
Greasy Joe over the weekend:
Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic nominee for vice president, departed Sunday from party doctrine on abortion rights, declaring that as a Catholic, he believes life begins at conception.
…
In the interview Sunday, Mr. Biden tried to walk the line between the staunch abortion-rights advocates in his party and his own religious beliefs. While he said he did not often talk about his faith, he said of those who disagree with him: “They believe in their faith and they believe in human life, and they have differing views as to when life — I’m prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at the moment of conception.”
Um…as a Catholic, you can’t be “prepared to accept”, idiot. You must accept!
If he genuinely believes that life begins at conception, but he supports easy access to abortion, then how can anyone come to any conclusion other than Biden doesn’t care about human life? If he actually believes what he says, then he, by his definition (and not mine), supports murder…period, end of discussion.
So, the exit question is this: Is he lying, or is he a depraved sicko…or both?
Biden’s lofty goals for highest office
I’m gonna be charitable and assume he didn’t plagiarize this observation (via NRO):
Joe Biden, in the Democratic primary, assessing who should serve on the Supreme Court:
I have taken on those justices who, in fact, show no balance — they are ideologues. We have enough ideologues. We have enough professors on the bench. I want someone who ran for dog catcher. I want someone — literally, not a joke. When Hillary’s husband asked me for his advice when he was appointing people, I wanted to go to people and so did he — we couldn’t. Four people turned it down. We wanted to get someone who, in fact, knew what it was to live life.
So let me get this straight… a dog-catcher is qualified to be on the Supreme Court, but a former mayor and recently-elected governor is not qualified for the presidency?
Boy, it sure is a good thing Barry O picked such an esteemed running mate to counterbalance his own skimpy resume.
Quote of the day, Huckabee edition
Check out Schmuckabee! From ABC News blog:
In fact I don’t know if you realize this but Sarah Palin got more votes running for mayor in Wasilla, Alaska than Joe Biden did in two quests for the presidency… that oughta tell you something…
Ouch! Good one, governor.
Biden: Today not a day for politics…well, for McCain, anyway
What a scumbag. From MSNBC:
This morning, Joe Biden said today was not a day for national politics. He said it again during a roundtable discussion outside his childhood home here this afternoon. But before long, he couldn’t help himself, criticizing McCain for his views on offshore drilling and questioning his foreign policy judgment.
“The only guy in America in a position of some authority who is out of sync with the whole rest of the world is John McCain,” he told a small group of relatives and old family friends. “This Administration, the Iraqis, NATO, the Europeans, our friends around the world, the vast majority of the American people, the Democratic-controlled Congress, Republicans in Congress — they all agree. Barack Obama was right, and John McCain was wrong.”
Good enough for me, but not for…um, me.
Left’s spin: Biden’s racism an “asset”
The left and the MSM (pardon the redundancy) are already in spin cycle mode over the selection of Greasy Joe Biden to The One’s campaign. From Ace:
There is spin, and then there is spin: a CNBC/NYT reporter claims that Joe Biden’s occasional bursts of old-school dumb-but-not-hateful racism are actually “refreshing” and “an asset.”
Need I remind anyone that for months the left has been DaVinci Codebreaking every John McCain advertisement for so-called “coded racism.” And they were not praising such “coded racism” as “refreshing” or charming in the least.
Rather the opposite.
But when Joe Biden is genuinely, pleasantly surprised that an African-American manages to wash himself on occasion, it’s a good thing! It just shows, I guess, that he’s “relatable” to all those Racist Older White voters. I guess the idea is that Joe Biden can make the case, “Hey, I’m as surprised as you all are to be running with a darkie. But I have to tell you — he’s one of the ‘good ones,’ like Cosby or Byron Allen. He’s like the new, family-friendly Ice Cube, not the old, angry Ice Cube that your daughter would date to get back at you for not buying her that Mini Cooper she wanted.”
Brilliant.
There’s more, and it’s all good stuff. I know, I know…that’s two from Ace today. Sorry, but the guy nails it, plus he’s funny as heck…deal with it.
Quote of the day, Biden edition
BEVERAGE ALERT! Ace has this to say about The One’s apostle, the gaffe-o-meter Greasy Joe:
Joe Biden is a scatterbrained and socially awkward guy. He’s the guy at the party who announces, out of nowhere, “I just had some subcutaneous fat injected into my penis to increase its girth, so that’s pretty good.”
And then… the uncomfortable silence as everyone takes keen regard of their shoes and watches.
We’re gonna have fun.
Biden bits about the blogosphere
The Obamessiah picked his disciple last week: Joe Biden (Plagiarist-DE), a clean articulate guy from reliably blue Delaware. They might want to avoid campaigning at 7-11 stores, though. What are we seeing about the blogosphere regarding the pick?
- Reminders that Greasy Joe thinks Iowa schools do better than DC schools due to the lack of blacks in Iowa.
- Reminders that Greasy Joe, being the “foreign policy guru” that Barry O needs him to be, didn’t notice any “bad guys” in Iraq.
- Barry O must not have vetted his mate very well, because Biden’s got ties to his son’s lobbying firm.
- Biden can at least take some credit for uniting Iraqis of different sects. Greasy Joe, being the “foreign policy guru”, came up with the craptastic idea of partitioning Iraq into three different countries. That idea was so bad that Iraqis of different blocs (Sunnis, Shias, Kurds) united in their opposition, and they credit Biden’s horrendous idea for their unity. But I’m sure that was his goal, right?
- McCain’s got an ad where Biden himself criticized Obama’s lack of experience, and heaped praised upon McCain. What a difference a VP slot makes, huh?
- Greasy Joe, being the “foreign policy guru”, thought in the wake of 9/11 that we should send the Iranians a $200 million blank check to prove to the Arab world that we weren’t going to kill them all. Ignoring the faux pas that Iranians aren’t Arabs (maybe all those “clean, articulate” brown people look alike to him?), did anyone clue Capt. Oblivious in to the fact that Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism who is intent on getting nuclear weapons?
I’m not suggesting that a bad VP pick is necessarily going to sink a candidate. After all, Bush’s dad survived the 1988 election with Dan Quayle. But man, this ought to be a hoot!
Biden: Iraq is “bad guy”-free
This would be a candidate for “Quote of the Day”, but Dean Barnett already beat me to it:
If we had a “Most Offensive Quote of the Day” every day, Joe Biden would probably come to own the prize. But even by the senator’s lofty standards of chronic obtuseness, he outdid himself this afternoon:
“If John (McCain) wants to know where the bad guys live, come back with me to Afghanistan. We know where they reside. And it’s not in Iraq.”
I know Democrats get a certain tingling in their thighs when their politicos talk butch (“talk butch”…I love it! LOL! – Ed.) in such a manner, but this comment is so over the top, somewhere in America Wesley Clark is probably feeling much better about his public relations acumen. What’s more, Biden’s comment turns what ought to be a serious conversation about two vital foreign theatres into a juvenile schoolyard taunt.
I have a suggestion for the senator: Perhaps he could bring his newly benign assessment to our soldiers who are serving in Iraq and the veterans who have served there. It would surely come as a huge relief to our soldiers currently in Iraq that their work has suddenly become “bad guy free.” Perhaps Biden should also bring his crass bad-guy-appraisal to the attention of all of the Iraqis who have stood by us and who, like our soldiers, have given and still are giving so much for that nation’s freedom. …
But hey…Plagiarist Joe “supports the troops”, right?
Biden: Dems think you’re stupid
All that Greasy Joe Plagiarism is doing here is telling us what we already knew: Democrats think they’re smart and that the American people are stupid. From the Andrew Cline:
Sen. Joe Biden said in an interview at the New Hampshire Union Leader this afternoon that too many Democrats, including the frontrunners for the presidential nomination, do not have faith in the American people.
“We’ve got to trust the American people more,” Biden said.
“I think they’ve really lost faith in the American people in terms of leveling with them,” he said of his leading rivals.
When he asks groups of Democrats if they think the American people are stupid because they elected George W. Bush twice, most respond that, yes, they do, he said. He said he thinks that attitude is a real problem for the Democrats, who fail to understand how smart and pragmatic the American people really are.
Sure, Biden is being a little bit disingenuous, since he has that same air of elitism that he accuses his liberal brethren of having. However, he is still correct in his inference that liberals think Americans are stupid. I guess that’s why they support Big Government the way they do: to keep us idjuts from hurting ourselves.
Biden: Iowa schools better than DC schools due to fewer blacks
When he’s not waxing eloquent about the clean, bright, articulate Negro in the race or about the prevelance of Indians at 7-11 stores, he’s busy explaining how Iowan kids do better in schools than those in the nation’s capital. From CNN’s blog:
In what the Washington Post is describing as a “stumble,” Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said in an interview with the paper Wednesday that Washington’s high minority population is one of the reasons for the city’s education problems.
Explaining why schools in Iowa are performing better than those in Washington, D.C., Biden told the Post, “There’s less than one percent of the population of Iowa that is African American. There is probably less than four of five percent that are minorities. What is in Washington? So look, it goes back to what you start off with, what you’re dealing with.”
Exit question (and yes, I know you see this one coming): What would the level of outrage been had, say, Mitt Romney or Rudy Giuliani or “Teh Fred” said the same thing?
Night & Day: "Oops" vs. "Slur"
Today’s N&D courtesy of Newsbusters:
Democratic presidential candidate (for now, anyway) Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware got headlines for all the wrong reasons yesterday when he referred to Sen. Barack Obama, who’s also running for president, as “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy” in an interview with the New York Observer.“Biden Unwraps His Bid for ’08 With an Oops!” read the headline over Adam Nagourney’s Thursday story in the New York Times. Credit the Times for putting it on the front page, and to Nagourney for bringing up Biden’s equally strange comment last summer that aired on C-Span: “You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.”
But as NewsBusters’ Mark Finkelstein noted, the Times’ headline does give Biden the benefit of the doubt that the remark was simply an “oops!,” a gaffe, and not a reflection of Biden’s real feelings toward blacks.
Back in 1995, when then-House Majority Leader Dick Armey, a conservative Republican, called gay Democratic congressman Barney Frank “Barney Fag” (Armey immediately corrected himself and later apologized to Frank) he didn’t get the benefit of the doubt from Times’ headline writers. The headline to a front-page story back on January 28, 1995 made it clear that Armey intended to “slur” his colleague, no “oops!” about it: “No. 2 House Leader Refers to Colleague With Anti-Gay Slur.”
Nope…no liberal media bias!
Quote of the day
Though I dislike Al Sharpton for his race-baiting and moonbattery, he’s good for a chuckle every once in a while. Here’s Al Sharpton responding to Biden’s comment yesterday that Sen. Barack Obama is “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean”:
Mr. Sharpton said that when Mr. Biden called him to apologize, Mr. Sharpton started off the conversation reassuring Mr. Biden about his hygienic practices. “I told him I take a bath every day,” Mr. Sharpton said.
Touché, Rev. Al.
By the way, this isn’t the first time that Biden has stepped in it. Last year, the plagiarist from Delaware made remarks about Indians, saying that “you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.” And the left accuses the right of prejudice? Pots and kettles and whatnot.
Biden starts (and destroys) campaign in one day!
Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) officially kicked off his campaign today. However, it looks like he may have ended it today, too. From the New York Observer:
Senator Joseph Biden doesn’t think highly of the Iraq policies of some of the other Democrats who are running for President.To hear him tell it, Hillary Clinton’s position is calibrated, confusing and “a very bad idea.” John Edwards doesn’t know what he’s talking about and is pushing a recipe for Armageddon in the Middle East. Barack Obama is offering charming but insubstantial fluff. And all of them are playing politics.
…
Mr. Biden is equally skeptical—albeit in a slightly more backhanded way—about Mr. Obama. “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”
The…what?? The “first” mainstream black guy who’s smart and articulate and clean? Holy shizit, does anyone have any freakin’ doubts as to how the MSM would have ravaged the plagiarist from Delaware had he been a Republican?
This story is in the New York Observer. As of this morning (and of course, that could change later on), most other MSM outlets are quieter than Monica Lewinsky in her presidential kneepads under the Oval Office desk. Were Biden a Republican, he’d already be “fried, died, and laid to the side”, would he not? However, we can look at the MSM’s failure to immediately report on this as further evidence of their leftist bias.
UPDATE (1/31/2007 – 4:35 p.m.): ABC News is finally reporting on it…and predictably blaming the evil “conservatives” for the fallout. Yeah, I’m sure Karl Rove and Rush Limbaugh beamed the thoughts into Biden’s brain. Then again, since he’s already a known plagiarist, Biden could always say he was simply parroting someone else’s words without proper attribution, right?
