Joe Biden really disappointed me on MtP today
Tripping over his own tongue on tax breaks for the rich, playing into the whole "we need more funding" argument for Fatherland Security, and looking like a pushover as far as Iraq is concerned. The only issue Biden seems to be doing well on is the Republicans' focus on gay marriage.

1. Biden is popular with the cable TV shows. They bring him in
to do a terrible job of representing the mainstream Democratic views.

2. I wish he wasn't running in '08
he is SUCH a cliche politician - says whatever he thinks people want to hear at any given moment.

:puke:

3. I disagree. He has command of the issues, he's putting forth a proposal
for Iraq like Murtha's, he's flaming BushCo and he's a bright man. I like him and he's a vast improvement over any repug candidate.

17. I agree..
today was the best that i have seen him. If the rest of the democrats will only state that they should stop the tax cuts and admit that they think that it is a tax increase that is needed.

6. Why is this News to You?
Name One instance where Biden was not with the Prezledent or Prezledent-lite. He is a typical wishywashy richfuck.

10. I saw him address a group of Democrats in Dallas last year
He had some focus and a little fire in his voice. Completely missing on MtP today.

8. Only the hope of perfecting the face implant will make him whole.
His goal to have two faces. The republican enabler, and the enraged democrat (stern concerned face), not too stern though, don't want to turn off people.

14. Duhhhh - big shock. That's what I thought when I saw HE was on BEFORE
Edited on Sun Jun-04-06 10:25 AM by TankLV
even listening to the show.

He's the repuke's favorite "democrat" along with LIEberman and Zellout.

FEH on them all.

Put on a REAL Democrat, then maybe I'll listen/watch.

Until then, they can all continue to mutually verbally masturbate each other without my participation.

Fuck 'em!

On edit: I will give him credit for regretting his IWR vote! Plus his response to timmythemediawhore's question on gay marriage. More than I can say for some Democrats!

16. Bidet? He's a phony. Even Norm Coleman had enough integrity to switch.
And I'm not trying to compliment Coleman either, sorry. He's another empty "yes man".

18. Biden's role is plainly obvious
Do you really think that the same corporate media cabal that has so effectively lied and misdirected for BushCo would just willy nilly pick any Democrat to appear on these shows over and over and over again?

Biden is EXACTLY the kind of Democrat they need and want for these shows. His appearances EVERY WEEK is NOT AN ACCIDENT!!!!!!
