BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Did you hear what Biden said? Real Clear Politics has this. And I don't know when Biden said this. It's recently. Biden said, "My dad never worked in a Food Fair. My dad never wore a blue collar, Barack makes me sound like I just climbed out of a mine in Scranton, Pennsylvania carrying a lunch bucket." That was Biden speaking at a conference with US mayors in Orlando. I think it was last week. He said, "No one in my family worked in a factory." Biden's ticked off because apparently Obama runs around and tells everybody what a blue-collar guy his vice president is.
Biden Say's He's Not Blue Collar: "No One in my Family Worked in a Factory"
Obama tells everybody his vice president is a blue-collar guy, and for some reason this offended Biden. "My dad never worked in a Food Fair. My dad never wore a blue collar. Barack makes me sound like I just climbed out of a mine in Scranton carrying a bunch bucket. No one in my family worked in a factory." Now, why would Biden say this? Why do rats jump off sinking ships? It's 'cause they know the ship is sinking. I can't find a plausible explanation for why Biden... he sounds really ticked off. He's insulted by being called blue collar, a Democrat. That's supposed to be a badge of honor to be blue collar. Your roots to blue-collar status, the Democrat Party, are what qualify you to be a Democrat. Here's Biden: "My dad never worked at a Food Fair. My dad never wore a blue collar. Barack makes me sound like I just climbed out of a mine in Scranton, Pennsylvania, carrying a lunch bucket. Nobody in my family worked at a factory." Man.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: You know, I can't get over this. Joe Biden disgusted and insulted at the thought that anybody might think that anybody in his family ever did any real work. Joe Biden is so insulted that Obama says his family's blue-collar, that he has to go out and defend his family's honor to a US conference of mayors by pointing out: (imitating Biden) "My family never did any real work. My family never worked in a mall. My family never worked in a mine. My family was never blue-collar. My family never worked in a factory."
Biden's gotta be confused, 'cause, remember, he said Obama's different. He's clean; he's articulate. No, Biden's family didn't work at 7-Eleven, 'cause you have to speak Indian to work at a 7-Eleven, and Biden's family doesn't speak Indian. It's what Biden said. Seriously, you Democrats, you union people, the vice president is acting insulted and disgusted that anybody would think that anybody in his family ever did any real work.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: We have the Joe Biden audio. It was from last Friday in Orlando, the 2012 annual meeting the US Conference of Mayors.
BIDEN: My dad never worked in a Food Fair. My dad never wore a blue collar. Barack makes me sound like I just climbed out of a mine in Scranton, Pennsylvania, carrying a lunch bucket. No one in my family worked in a factory!
RUSH: Well, there you have it. (impression) "So don't anybody in this room, don't any of you think my family ever did any real work. My family never worked in a factory, carried a lunch bucket, or worked in a mine or a Food Fair. Blue-collar? No! Not in my family." What are Richard Trumka and all these union thug leaders gonna do when they hear about this?
END TRANSCRIPT
...and taxes are for the little people...
CA....
Joe has spent his whole political life implying that he and his family (if not blue collar) were at least humble lower middle class regular joes. In fact his dad wasn’t just a used car salesman he was the Sales Manager at the dealership. But that would imply the family had airs. Not good for a Democrat unless they’re a Kennedy.
I didn't watch the tape but another poster said that Biden said it as if he were thoroughly disgusted that anyone might think he came from such a family.
In that spirit, I just want everybody to know that I am not the best singer in the world, regardless of what my two year old grand daughter says, I am however, the best grandpa in the world and I have a coffee cup with that on it to prove it.
He sure couldn’t shine his shoes
You would think just being Joe Biden insult enough.
Funny thing, that incident. He was plagiarizing a LOSER.
Didn’t Biden brag about being a coal miner when he was ripping off the speeches of some leftist Brit?
