"He talks as though he has no clue as to what caused that".

The sad truth is that he most likely doesn't. Biden strikes me as a big government progressive that didn't realize he had throwing in with Left wing Communist, he just want power to lord it over everyone, he didn't realize until it was too late that Obama/Jarrett/Holder, Really do Hate Liberty, Free market economics and are racist.

Sad part is, the effects of some of the things Obama has done won’t be felt until he is gone.

To state the obvious, the past six years have been really, really hard for this country.

Darn tootin'.

"And they've been really tough for our party.

Well deserved.

And together we made some really, really tough decisions -- decisions that weren't at all popular, hard to explain

Yes, it's hard to explain always making the wrong decision.

Hard to explain? So whose fault is that??? Who is at fault if liberals just didn’t do a good enough job of explaining to the American people the joys of Obamacare and other policies of this administration?????

Crazy Joe slips up and tells the truth too often for the liberal elites.

“Hard to explain...”

We’ve tried so hard to implement our economic policies and expected the collapse to have occurred years ago. It’s just so hard to explain why it hasn’t worked yet.

We can’t figure out how to blame Bush or the Tea Party for 0bama releasing terrorists and supporting terrorists...it’s just so hard to explain why the Arab Spring hasn’t been more “successful”.

We thought by using the EPA, IRS, DHS, DoJ, and other agencies to violate American rights, that we would have had our civil war by now...it’s just so hard to explain.

It’s just so hard to explain why we couldn’t get the rioting in Ferguson to spread across the country.

Btw Joe, do you find it hard to explain to the Vietnamese how you were part of the rat cabal in Congress that in 1975 prevented the disbursement of funds appropriated as part of the U.S. commitment to help them fight the N. Vietnamese?

Maybe the most accurate and (unintentionally) intelligent thing Biden has ever said.

Actually those manipulating Obama knew Biden wouldn’t catch on or object.
