The senior senator from Delaware, Joe Biden, never fails to demonstrate that he suffers from a significant deficiency of true class. His most recent outburst, calling GWB’s denial that he was referring to Obama as an appeaser “Bullsh*t” was just one more example of that deficiency. http://www.politico.com/blogs/thecrypt/0508/Biden_Bushs_comments_were_bullshit.html
Having run and having failed in this his latest of four tries for the Democratic nomination for president, he seems to have his eye on Harold Stassen’s record of futile presidential bids. One might therefore think that he could have better chosen his description of a sitting president’s words as Bullsh*t, but with Joe it’s understandable.
Here’s a guy who in 1988 had to admit to plagiarism while at Syracuse Law School in 1965, as well as to inflating his academic record, and other chicanery, such as ”borrowing” lines from a British pol (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/frenzy/biden.htm). Yet, like his good buddy, the unindicted murderer and fellow pagiarizer, Teddy Kennedy, he gets away with it and the poor dumb Delewareans keep reelecting him.
Personally, I think Biden hit his low point when, sucking up to the “gay” vote in the first Democratic debate, he suggested his young daughters may end up as lesbians, a prediction that must have fascinated his girls.
Look, Biden’s hair transplants/plugs a while back–which looked like mini cornrows– may be seen as just a demonstration of the guy’s vain, midlife crisis, (or a pitch for the Black vote?). But with his checkered past shouldn’t he be a tad more judicious nowadays as he enters his dotage?
His possible-future-lesbian daughters should remind him, “Daddy! 2012 is just four years away!”
