   Awww, never mind that he hasn’t a clue about leadership, or how the military works, or where Georgia is on the map…

    If true, this is beyond hysterical, because for eight years all we have heard from the Dems is, “Bush is a moron and a puppet. Cheney is really calling the shots on our foreign policy.” Ironically, when Obama made is “above my pay grade” comment at Saddleback, Joe Biden’s slimy, condescending brow beating of then US Weapons Inspector USMC Major Scott Ritter daring to comment on things “above his pay grade” came immediately to my mind. If he picks Biden, Obama will have selected the only person in government with a bigger ego than Obama. Their heads won’t fit in the same room.

    Oh yes, Mr. Plagiarist.

    Delaware Senator Joe Biden was forced out of the 1988 U.S. Presidential race (but remained in the U.S. Senate) when it was discovered that parts of his campaign speeches were plagiarized from speeches by British Labour party leader Neil Kinnock and Robert Kennedy.

    From Delaware. This is great news for North Dakota. Their Senator – Kent Conrad – can be named to replace Biden!

    With his $900k ocean front property in Delaware, Conrad owns much more property in Delaware than the state he represents in the Senate (where he owns a $160,000 apt building……..another sweetheart mortgage).

    It looks like the MSM will take a nose dive on Biden’s mendacious past. There was the infamous theft of Neil Kinnock’s words and biography from 1987. Biden has since said that he only inadvertently borrowed a few words from Kinnock. Actually, he stole Kinnock’s life. Kinnock said: Why is it that my ancestors could work in the coal mines for 16 hours and then play football for 8 hours”. Biden used the exact same words and stated that HIS own pop and grandpa had worked in the coal mines. As it turned out, Biden had zero relatives who ever worked in the coal mine. The best Biden could come up with was an inlaw who worked in management for a coal company and never went underground. Then there was the time Biden got into an argument in New Hampshire with somebody and Biden forgot CSpan’s cameras were running, even back in 1987. Biden bragged that he finished near the top of his class at Syracuse Law School. As it turned out, Biden finished right near the bottom of his class. And he got caught stealing somebody else’s words and thoughts on a paper Biden submitted to a law professor. Biden came close to being expelled from Syracuse but after alot of whining, he was only suspended. I wonder if the MSM will have any interest in that. I doubt it.

    Oh yeah, and I almost forgot! Biden’s infamous 7-11 comment from last summer.

    Let’s recap:

    Biden attempted to endear himself to an Indian American supporter by telling him that in Delaware, “you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.” Not only was this an offensive line, it didn’t even make any sense: The observation, familiar to anybody who watched a comedian on cable television 15 years ago, is that Indian Americans are the only ones who work in convenience stores, not that they’re the only ones who shop there. The man can’t even keep his condescending cliches straight.

    I swear the first time that I saw the dummy, Walter, not Biden (I’m not sure which is the bigger dummy), I thought the dummy must have been patterned after Biden. They both have the same attitude. Maybe the dummy is an offspring of Biden’s or vice-a-versa.
