Washington (CNN) Vice President Joe Biden says he has strong relationships with Delaware's Somali community because "there's an awful lot driving cabs" and he's made friends with them at the Wilmington train station.

Some Delaware cab company owners disputed Biden's comment about Somali drivers.

But if they weren't employed he'd hunt them like terrorist dogs.

Biden hasn’t ridden in a taxi since he was 27 and in his 8th year of his freshman year of college.

OK, but I have a few questions:

1. When was the last time idiot Joe Biden was in a cab?

2. If he didn't meet them while riding in a cab, then where?

3. If he were to ride in a cab with a Somali driver, what are the chances he'd never be heard from again, and do the SS take the next available cab?

4. Why hasn't the asylum reported him missing?

In Phoenix it’s true. At the airport the cabs are lined up for people to take, and most are driven by Somali’s. I know because I have taken these cabs before and many of these drivers have told my chatty mom that he was from Somalia.

So, one day my mother got to talking to the Somali cab driver who told us his tale. He lived in Somalia and over there the U.S. offered his town $3000.00 cash and travel expenses paid to leave Somalia and live in the U.S.

He took it, now complains he cannot make enough money as a cab driver here to go home. He’s stuck and broke.

I use to live down the street from Biden and took plenty of cabs to get back home and I don’t recall anyone that could be described as Somali.

A fee Arabs but, the largest taxi cab and airport shuttle company was my customer and all I ever saw was a bunch of wbite guys, who drove for this dude.

Where in the train station? In the men's room stalls? How wide is his stance?

Believe me, Joe’s house is but a couple miles to the the bars he frequented and less than a mile from the two near Jensens Grocery.

He drove.
