Vice President Joe Biden has clarified a comment he made earlier today in which he said presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney would "put you all back in chains" by unshackling Wall Street.
"And I'm told when I made that comment earlier today in Danville, Virginia, the Romney Campaign put out a Tweet, you know Tweets, and went on the air, went on the airwaves saying 'Biden's outrageous in saying that - I think I said, instead of unshackled, unchained or - anyway, outrageous to say that, that's what we meant. I'm using their own words. I got a message for them, if you want to know want to know what's outrageous, it's their policies, and the effects of their policies on middle class America, that's what's outrageous."
Biden's initial comment centered on what he cast as plans by Republicans to allow banks to dictate the regulations they would be subject to.
Romney has vowed "to let the big banks write their own rules -- unchain Wall Street," Biden said in Danville, Va. "They're going to put y'all back in chains."

He needs an Atlas too!
I bet he was “taken out of context”. Yeah, that’s the ticket. Out of context..........
Biden is an idiot no clarification.
In 1860 blacks made up over 23% of the state's population with the following breakout:

Did you know that this picture inspired the new Democrat logo?
Joe never represented the “average” Delawarean. He was owned by the banks and did their bidding. Same with Carper. Same with Coons. Same with Carney.
And the stupid “average” Delawarean continues to vote for the guy who shut down TWO auto plants, gave $800 Million to a company to build cars in Finland and agrees with his boss that all coal miners and oil workers must lose their jobs.
GET ME THE HECK OUT OF HERE.
ROFL!! Oh my...am I slow, or what?????
Still, he IS a donkey in a well.....
A family member had a donkey several years ago...she named him “Donkeyhoty” (Sounds like Don Quixote!) He was the sweetest little thing, and very cute. Seeing a picture of this endearing creature in a well brought a laugh to my heart.
But I really like the originally intended meaning of the picture too! A picture is truly worth a 1000 or 10,000 words!
Slow Joe-”I didn’t say what I said.”
That crowd was disgronified by Biden’s carpetbagging. Not far off Perot’s “you people”.
Tell that to Biden. I was just repeating his quote from one of his pesidential runs
Talk about an ass in a hole!
(I hope they got him out OK!;)
BRAVO!!
Are you suggesting that Joe is not CLEAR and ARTICULATE?
The White Hut put out a statement that Joe’s remarks were fine by them. Why does Joe feel the need to clarify them?
Socialism is slavery to the State.
The only shackles come from the DNC, the party of Jim Crow laws. The party that founded the KKK.
Translation, "It's unfair to use my own racist pandering words against me when I'm trying to paint THEM as racists."
Dummy like a fox.
Joe gave that speech after a meeting with Johnny Walker Red, Black and the whole friggin’ rainbow.
Biden: I was referring to my favorite band, Alice in Chains.
