Vice President Joe Biden is known for his colorful rhetoric, and he didn’t disappoint a Labor Day crowd in Cincinnati. Noting Ohio labor members’ fight to overturn a new state law that clamps down on the organizing rights of public employees, Biden said of the stakes:
“This is a different kind of fight. This is a fight for the heart and soul of the labor movement. This is a fight for the existence of organized labor. You are the only ones who can stop the barbarians at the gate! That’s why they want you so bad.”
I don’t think Biden is steeped in any kind of thought, although he might be steeped in gin. He is an old-school politician and has no philosophy other than what makes Joe Biden richer. He is first and foremost a con artist.
“Crazy Joe Biden is f@cking nuts, Babe, that’s why they call him Crazy Joe.”
Good pic! I remember that movie from when it first came out. Who knew the Reds in that movie would be homegrown.
They should do combined remake titled “Red Dawnya”.
I’ll play the lead.
;D
Bar-bar-bar-bar-barian!
Bar-bar-bar-bar-barian!
Bar-bar-bar-bar-barian!
Bar-bar-bar-bar-barian!
Barbarian, please take my hand!
Oh, Barbarian!
See?
It’s easy.

I think “barbarians at the gate” is an expression.
