Joe Biden Lays Into Romney, GOP: 'They Don't Get Who We Are!' (Au contraire, Gomer!)
YahooNews ^ | 05/16/12 | Devin Dwyer

At a campaign stop in Youngstown, Ohio, today, Vice President Joe Biden lit into Republicans and their presumed presidential nominee Mitt Romney for what he described as a failure to understand the plight of the middle class.

"I resent when they talk about families like mine that I grew up in. I resent the fact that they think we're talking about envy: it's job envy, it's wealthy envy; that we don't dream," an impassioned Biden told a crowd of manufacturing workers.

"My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the United States, that I could be, I could be vice president! My mother and father believed that if my brother or sister wanted to be a millionaire, they could be a millionaire! My mother and father dreamed as much as any rich guy dreams!

I think the real envy here is from Joe Biden: financial reports recently released revealed the Obamas have over $10 million in cash, primarily from book sales, while the Bidens have a little less than one million.

Honestly? I’m expecting Biden to develop some sort of ailment before the DNC Convention where he will decide not to run, leaving a surprise co-candidate pick from Obama to bolster his ratings.

This came very close to becoming another slip of the tongue.

Love it. Spot on. Get out of our way is right. Disgusting communists trying to make our America into a bunch of Euro losers while they sit in ivory towers and dictate. Thanks but no thanks.

A clearer distinction between how Liberals and Conservatives think there has never been.

Conservatives say, "I overcame life's obstacles and so can you."

Liberals say, "I overcame life's obstacles but, you, you poor miserable schlub, you don't stand a chance without me and my friends in government. Just take the handouts and vote for us your entire life. "

Bidon says he wants to ‘take back America from the rich’.

What about your 40 months in power (WH) and 24 months with congress supermajority doofus??

Maybe things are that bad because of you!

I am absolutely convinced that this country is being run by people who are lunatics: Obama, Biden, Reid, Pelosi, Debbie Blabbermouth.

Biden is one of the least wealthiest politicians, not because of virtue, but because he was too mind-numbingly stupid to get rich.

Yeah, I had to laugh out loud when I heard him say that.

Sorry Joe, we know you better than you know yourself. We know you down to your moronic little hair plugs.

Funny how often such arrogance and abject stupidity manifest themselves in the same person.

So they don’t “envy”, eh?
They just have dreams and aspirations, eh?

Then why did 0bama flat out state that tax policy was primarily to impose “fairness” (ie, punish the successful)?

He has the angry act down pat. Pretty bad when your campaign is running on:
I am with you being angry that things are so bad under my policies, so re-elect us so we can fix them.

They have to make believe that they just took office in 2011 or 2012.

One has to wonder how Joe can manage his money so poorly when he:

  1. Contributes next to nothing to charity.
  2. Has drawn a U.S. Senator's salary since he was three years out of law school until he became Vice-President and a VP's salary since.
  3. Has enjoyed gold-plated health insurance and all the other benefits which come with said careers.
  4. Has never had to pay for or maintain a second home in the DC area.
  5. Finished having kids before he became a U.S. Senator way back when John McCain was still a guest at the Hanoi Hilton.
  6. Apparently has no vices such as gambling, excessive boozing, flashy cars or whoring around which would consume his income.

Just try to explain that. He's had a longer career than any professional athletes in a well paying field and still has a net worth less than three year's salary.

Hair transplants don't cost that much.

I swear I think sometimes Biden is a Republican plant.
