What??

Joe Biden said the GERMANS attacked Pearl Harbor?

Who are WE to dispute what the VeeP says??

Nice quote, but dumb as Biden is, he didn't say that.

He said FDR went on television when the stock market crashed. Rep. Keith Ellison said that the Nazis bombed Pearl Harbor (as did John Belushi's character in Animal House.

Somehow all this got mixed up on the Internet. Some of the Dan Quayle quotes that circulated are likewise not true.
