Condoleezza Rice was Stanford's Provost from 1993 - 1999.

I applaud Senator Biden for this statement to Europe, but c'mon! Start by talking to folks like Senator Boxer, you maroon!

He would but no one is Europe is manly enough to stand up to him. Barbara could take him.

I hadn't thought of that, but you're right!

For a Dem, I like Biden.

Same here. I don't find him incompetent and pawing at his arse with both hands. Just one.

Seriously, he is one of the better true Dems, other than the likes of Zell Miller.

Look hard enough, and you'll probably find out that he plagiarized that line...

He's no Zell Miller, but I do like him OK for a Dem.

Stopped clock. Look at him now, while he's accurate. In a couple minutes, he'll be a blithering idiot again. Let's savor the moment.

Once in a while, the senator has a lucid thought.

Probably plagarized.

"He needs to say the same thing to members of his own party!"

Starting with Algore, and the folks at Moveon.org, who haven't gotten over 2000, let alone 2004. MoveOn sure isn't living up to its name, is it?

Wait a little while until congress is in session, and we'll see whether or not Biden has gotten over it.

I doubt it. First chance he gets, he will revert to obstructionism and partisan warfare.

What the heck does a "provost" do at Stanford or anywhere else?



Same thing as an amateurvost, except for money.

Thanks. Sort of a manager, bureaucrat, PR guy, or lady in this case. I'm not belittling the job, even though when I read my paraphrase it sounds like it.

The DUmmies feel more loyalty to Europe than they EVER showed to America

I'm sure you're right. But it would be nice to think that he might be tired of breathing hysterical, paranoid DU-type air and might want to break out after this brief trip to the surface...

Don't be too quick to jump on Biden's bandwagon. Yes, he's glib and talks a good game, but I believe he's been involved in some pretty sinister dealings.

I started watching him carefully after reading this 2003 article in Aftenposten, Norway's leading newspaper.

A group of European social democrats...met last week with several top Democratic politicians and party officials. They included US senators Hilary Clinton and Joseph Biden.

They also had meetings with Ron Klain of presidential candidate Wesley Clark's campaign, and Stan Greenberg, former US President Bill Clinton's campaign strategist in 1992.

On the agenda was European concern over current US foreign policy and the effects of globalization.

Note: Biden, Hillary and (at least) 2 top Dem political consultants. Though he wasn't named in the article, I've no doubt Bill Clinton is a major part of this effort through his frequent travels to Europe.

Note: "Political globalization". Here's how I interpret that. After 9/11 the Dems were desperate over Bush's sky high approval ratings. Their hands were tied by the war on terror...they dared not attack him. I believe they coordinated with their European counterparts to carry that load for them...attack Bush often enough to soften him up and then the Dems could get back in the fray.

I believe it's no coincidence that one of the Dems' strongest campaign themes was how unpopular America has become abroad..."we wasted all that goodwill after 9/11"! It's not that great a leap to conclude that they worked to foster that anti-Americanism for use as a club against Bush.

In the last few years we hear more and more about Dem political consultants running campaigns for foreign leaders. Then I read that article above about their plans for "political globalization".

In a nutshell, I believe that Biden, the Clintons, and other smart Dems figured out that, after 9/11, they had lost their grip on the American electorate. Their only hope was to drum up the anti-American sentiment and make Americans believe Bush had led them down the wrong path---never mind if it hurt America's national interest. Anything to keep Bush from succeeding. Traitorous? Yes, that's what I would call it.

Since reading that article I've watched Biden's travels, his role in the Kerry campaign, and his public pronouncements. For instance, I believe his little outburst today was probably pre-programmed with his Euro buddies...wink, wink. I think he's going to run in 2008. And I think that would be a true disaster for our country.

Last Note: I know this sounds like tinfoil hat territory. But I'm not a conspiracy theorist like those DUmmies on the other side. Following Biden closely, I've come to strongly suspect he's collaborating with Euro governments aginst the interests of the U.S.
