Biden's spokespeople said the line was taken from a scene in a John Wayne movie, where a Native American chief refers to Wayne as a 'lying, dog-faced pony soldier. It appears he was actually referring to the 1952 Tyrone Power film 'Pony Soldier'

I have the Blu-ray of Pony Soldier, but I have never watched it. I need to scan through it to see if I can find such a line.

Stealing a line from a movie Native American, makes Joe Biden more Indian than Warren.

A 21 year-old didn’t get a John Wayne movie reference?

Shocking.

In other news, Joe is a dumbass.

Biden later said he was quoting John Wayne...

Well what college student today wouldn’t know that line.

This is a bunch of malarkey :)

Biden definitely has name recognition.

I know him from Hunter Biden

That did remind me of a line from a John Wayne movie. Maybe the Searchers?

Biden has previously used the same phrase and attributed it to a John Wayne movie. At a 2018 campaign event for Heidi Heitkamp, Biden said of her opponent Kevin Cramer: 'As my brother who loves to use lines from movies, from John Wayne movies, there's a line in a movie, a John Wayne movie where an Indian chief turns to John Wayne and says, ''This is a lying, dog-faced pony soldier''

Even THIS is a lie. It's a Tyrone Power movie.

That was Joe talking to a Democrat, imagine what he will say to independents and Republicans.

Imagine if any Republican said that to a female college student.

What? You mean she didn’t take it as a joke?

The Washington Post asserts that Biden’s insult was jocular. As the headline has it: “Biden jokingly calls voter who asked about Iowa a ‘lying dog-faced pony soldier.’” . Something tells me that the powers that be at the Post seek to cushion Biden’s descent.

.... sleuths have been unable to find a direct film source for Joe Biden’s inexplicable recall of “lying dog-faced pony soldier,” but I think for Joe’s next rhetorical trick, maybe he’ll let loose with “sallywagin’ hornswogglin’ cracker coaker” from Blazing Saddles, which was duly pronounced “authentic frontier gibberish.”

Quoting lines from a 70-year old movie to a college student of today just showcases how out of touch Joe is.

Should’ve saved that line for Warren, no?

So, if I call someone a certain name starting with the letter “N,” can I just say that I was quoting a line from the movie, “Blazing Saddles?”
