Actually Biden didn't say anything about Republicans putting folks back in chains, he talked about Wall Street putting people back in chains. Get the s**t out of your ears. If you don't believe that that is exactly what Citibank, JP Morgan and BoA are doing with unrestricted credit card interest rates, sub-prime mortgages, and pension investments into exotic securities, then apparently you deserve enslavement.
We thought Joe Biden couldn't top--or bottom--the appalling gaffe of calling a 2010 White House bill signing ceremony "a big f___ing deal." But he just did it. In Danville, Virginia this week, Biden told a largely black audience the Republicans were going to "put y'all in chains." Now, of course, his staff is backpedaling furiously. He meant the banks. He was talking about banking de-regulation, they bleat frantically. Sure he was.
If any conservative, any Republican had made such a statement, he'd have been fired. Agriculture Sec. Fred Butz was fired in 1976 within hours of telling a dirty joke...
I recall, in his election bid against Christie, if I have it correct, a clear picture of Obama with his arm around Corzine's shoulder. Obama did deliver the kiss of death to Corzine's election by coming here to stump for him. 'Everyone is equal, but some are more equal than others'.
How did a public servant like Biden get to be so rich?
How does Corzine get off, when you consider how some people are sent to jail?
