CHICAGO (AP) - The daughter of Sen. Joseph Biden ( news, bio, voting record), D-Del., was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of obstructing a police officer early Saturday, police said.

Ashley Blazer Biden, 21, of Wilmington, Del., was with a group of people on a North Side street where several bars are located when someone else threw a bottle at a police officer, police said.

When officers went to arrest another person, Biden blocked the officer's path and made intimidating statements, Officer JoAnn Taylor said.

Biden was arrested on suspicion of obstructing a police officer. She was released from custody and is scheduled to appear in court Sept. 20.

Sen. Biden's spokeswoman, Margaret Aitken, declined to comment Saturday, calling it a private, family matter.

Iagree, who cares.

But is it OK if we care about Bidens lobbyist son and his dirty dealings?

Well, well, well. The Dems have opened a nice little can of worms for themselves, by expanding the “fair game” bubble of scrutiny to all activities of candidates’ children and spouses (even spouses to be) over the past 22 years. I’m sure we’ll see this arrest of Biden’s daughter dominate a 24-hour MSM media cycle now. And I’m sure they’ll angrily accuse Biden of being too busy to properly raise his daughter.

Google search turned up only this from theLA Times:

Sen. Biden’s Daughter Arrested in Altercation

August 04, 2002 in print edition A-15

The daughter of Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.) was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of obstructing a police officer outside a Chicago bar.

Ashley Blazer Biden, 21, of Wilmington, Del., was with a group of people on a North Side street where several bars are located when someone else threw a bottle at an officer, police said.

When police tried to arrest another person, Biden blocked the officer’s path and made intimidating statements, officer JoAnn Taylor said.

B

iden was later released and is scheduled to appear in court Sept. 20.

Sen. Biden’s spokeswoman, Margaret Aitken, declined to comment, calling it a private, family matter.

Note that it was on page 15 of the print edition. Compare this to the prominence given to story of Palin's daughter's pregnancy and the story of Palin's husband's old DUI conviction.

That's a real issue.

I'm waiting for OB to talk about Palin's inexperience.

Wow! Apparently, his son is en route to prison, as well. If he only has two kids, he's batting 1000!

I suppose that the charge against Biden's daughter was dismissed. After all, this was in Chicago and Biden is a Democrat.

My guess is that you bring this up again now because of the recent MSM hullabaloo over Sarah Palin's daughter being pregnant. 'Rats who live in glass houses shouldn't be throwing stones.

Thanks for pointing out the date but the comparison is still legitimate. Where’s the MSM?

The Dems brought up Todd Palin’s DUI from over 20 years ago. This was only 6 years ago.

22 years ago! And his daughter was an adult.

What was Obama doing then? I think he went to Pakistan and Muslim India.

Your link doesn’t work, or was removed.

Gee, you don't think somebody is scrubbing the internet of these stories, do you?

Oh, okay.
I wonder how many abortions Biden's daughter has had, if she truly is Biden's daughter. (We need a DNA test.)

Of course, Biden's bar-hopping daughter is old news. Biden's brother and son are being sued for scamming $millions from business partners - - now THAT's current. I can't wait to read the in-depth investigations coming any day now from New York Times, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSLSD, and the rest of the DNC propaganda agents.

I am not holding my breath.
