What a guy!

[AppyPappy]

I wonder who said it before him.

[theDentist]

Probably Hillary.

[isthisnickcool]

Doing the work American Indians won't do at the 7-11 and Dunkin donuts.

[Reaganesque]

Why some of my best friends are Indians...

[Mo1]

Have you seen this?

[AmishDude]

Dumbest man in the Senate.

[OmahaFields]

What did he say?

[Red Badger]

American Indian or Indian American?..............

[sono]

Reminiscent of Hillary's infamous 'Gandhi's Gas Station' routine.

[Personal Responsibility]

Dumbest man in the Senate.

Mark Levin says it and every other week or so he is proven right. Kennedy, Schumer, Durbin et al may come up with some winners here and there but over the long haul, no one outdoes Biden.

[eyespysomething]

New firewall at work...dot or feather?

[Osage Orange]

Do I know you?

[AmishDude]

No, Boxer is dumber than Biden. But Biden is the dumbest man in the Senate.

[slowhand520]

He was greeting an Indian American and said "You cannot enter a 7-11 or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have an India Accent, No really I'm not joking"

[Personal Responsibility]

It is so hard to choose one dumbest person. Every time you think you have hit rock bottom they find a way to get dumber.

Sometimes I wonder if we are better off when they are not in session at all.

[dighton]

I am just now thinking he is borrowing line from Apu.

[evets]

[andy58-in-nh]

[NonValueAdded]

Now maybe if he said "own" or "operate" instead of "enter," none of this would be news :)

[rake]

It is outrageous and despicable. What an absolute idiot. And he'll get away with it because

a. he's a democrat, and

b. Indians are not a coddled, favored minority.

What hypocrites!

[Screamname]

Another stupid remark by a `rat that will be utterly and completely forgotten by ...Well, forgotten by now...

[JohnLongIsland]

they dug the hair plugs a little too deep in the plagiarist's skull.

[Txsleuth]

I have tried on both threads to get the video on my computer...but it just won't work for me.

All I get is a multi-colored X.

[OmahaFields]

He was greeting an Indian American and said "You cannot enter a 7-11 or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have an India Accent, No really I'm not joking"

Context please. Some of us at work can't get to the link.

Thanks.

[Mo1]

Oh .. not worries ... I have a feeling this one might make it on Hannity, Levin, or any one of the conservative shows .. *L*

Joe Biden is an idiot

[teddyballgame]

What a baffoon this man is. Not only is he the most arrogant Senator, he's the stupidest.

[roses of sharon]

Which is why Imus and Chrissy love him so!

[Dixie Yooper]

It sounds like he was trying to compliment the guy's heritage by linking his kind to all the 7-11's and Dunkin Donuts. Jame Watts had more tact when he was describing his staff.

[capydick]

How arrogant that he thinks he's Presidential material. Reminds me of the old line from the bussing days: "Some of my best friends are busses".

[cwat212]

INDIA.

he met a young man with an "India" accent and said that Delaware has the largest Indian population from India and he needs their support. Then remarked, "You can't walk into a 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts without an Indian Accent these days". He then added, " You think I'm kidding?"

[sagar]

Only hyper-sensitive people with nothing else to get offended by get offended by this silliness.

[Socratic]

...dot or feather?

LMAO

[slowhand520]

The point of this thread is the hypocrisy of the left not the what he said. This will not even get a blurb in the MSM. Yet if this were a conservative forget about it!

[OmahaFields]

INDIA. he met a young man with an "India" accent and said that Delaware has the largest Indian population from India and he needs their support. Then remarked, "You can't walk into a 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts without an Indian Accent these days". He then added, " You think I'm kidding?"

What is an "INDIA" accent?

[OmahaFields]

I am still confused. Was the point that he said someone couldn't come in if they had an Indian accent?

[Yo-Yo]

Nice one, Plugs. Everybody knows that Gurjarati Indians run the Motel 6s. It's the Pakis and the Arabs that run 7-11s.

[maica]

b. Indians are not a coddled, favored minority.

#####

And we want them to continue to be strong allies in Asia. Biden claims to have some "experience" with foreign relations! I think all of experiences must be figments of his own imagination.

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

Amazing. This guy has been in in the U.S. Senate since, what, 1973?

You'd think by now he'd know better.

[rod1]

Is Boxer really dumber than Patty Murray or Mary (moonbeam) Landriue? Scary if true.

[Danae]

Well at least they have the initiative to OPEN THEIR OWN BUSINESSES instead of trying to live off of welfare and child support like so many Liberal handout-suckers. Of course Bidden is going to be condescending. He wants EVERYONE on the Government dole so he and other Liberals can continue to get elected and protect their own "Jobs". With out those people who are unwilling to do for themselves and panhandle at the door of the nearest welfare and or child support services office, they've got no votes and so no job. No wonder he is condescending.

[maggief]

Clinton introduced a quote from Gandhi by saying, "He ran a gas station down in St. Louis."

"No, Boxer is dumber than Biden. But Biden is the dumbest man in the Senate."

OH. I thought Ted Stevens was...

WASHINGTON — They say the main thing standing between Joe Biden and the White House is Joe Biden’s mouth.

The would-be presidential candidate proved it again on a recent trip to New Hampshire, where C-Span cameras caught him telling an Indian-American activist that Indian-Americans are the fastest-growing immigrant group in Delaware.

In fact, Biden said, “You cannot go into a Dunkin Donuts or a 7-Eleven unless you have a slight Indian accent.”

[dalereed]

How would he know, I thought only cops went into donut shops.

[dead]

Only hyper-sensitive people with nothing else to get offended by get offended by this silliness.

The point is that the "hyper-sensitive people with nothing else to get offended by" are very party specific when it comes to what offends them.

If the comments came from a Republican from Texas or Alabama, it would be on the front page of the NY Times in the morning, with an editorial calling for sensitivity training and Senate censure.

But from an eastern liberal, the comments fade into the ether as if they were uttered only in a dream.

[familyop]

So is Biden with the Pakistani terrorist population? Does he have interest in contracts there?

[raccoonradio]

Taking material from Neil Kinnock again, or is this an original?

The Kwik-E-Mart in Pittsburgh, across from the Westin Hotel. I think Simpsons producers tried to sue these folks but didn't get far. Have been in there--there's a pic of Apu in there taken from some Simpsons book. Note that the font in the sign is Comic sans ms, a la comic book/Simpsons...

[Gengis Khan]

You mean "Ghandi Gas Station".

[sono]

Thanks!
