This is a surprise.
Doesn't sound like the "comprehensive" plan is on the table any more..
Yeah! Keep the women down! No female role models smuggled into the US, you sexist ba$tard!
/h
You've never said anything intentionally funny in your life, Joe.
Biden is from Deleware, not Taxachusetts
Man... it's almost like they're trying to woo the conservative vote.
;->
You know what? Between illegals and a bit of a tax increase, I'll take the tax increase. It can always be cancelled later and the illegals are much more damaging in both the short and he long run
The border is rapidly becoming my #1 issue.
No kidding. What's in the water he's been drinking?
For those of you keeping score at home, "Mass." is the abbreviation for "Delaware", and "advise" is the AP word for "advice".
Even a broken watch is right twice a day. Reid is now going to make him stay after school as punishment.
Shocking. A Democrat making good sense. Yes, Mexico is at fault here, for having a crony economy and refusing to reform. It is more convenient to the ruling elite to send millions of your poorest workers over the border rather than actually do the hard work of finding them jobs.
Somehow, I doubt that the choice is really that simple.
I'm sure it's the AP dumba$$ that typed it wrong.
Mark this date, everyone, as it's surely the first time in years that a Democrat has blamed any country but the U.S. (and maybe Israel) for anything.
No KIDDING that he's posturing himself for a run at the White House.
Well said!!!!!!!!!
The word priorities comes to mind.
The border impacts national security and the economy in a big way. And, as I said, any tax inceases can be eliminated in 4 years.
All joking about Biden aside, I'm sincerely curious as to what Biden meant by calling Mexico an "erstwhile" democracy. Erstwhile of course means "former." Surely Biden doesn't think that Mexico was ever a democracy. For that matter, as corrupt as it is now, it is at least marginally more democratic today than it was 20 years ago, when the PRI ruled as a one-party dictatorship. Elections might be deeply corrupt, but at least there is some semblance of a multi-party system.
So, to repeat, what do people think Biden had in mind in calling Mexico an "erstwhile" democracy? Might he think erstwhile means "supposed," perhaps?
If it postures like a buffoon and bellows like a buffoon, and there are many air plugs between it's ears..
it's still a BUFFOON.
