Biden Calls Bush 'Brain Dead'
The New York Times ^ | July 06, 2007 | Adam Nagourney

During a Fourth of July campaign stop in Iowa, Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden, known for suffering from acute foot-in-mouth disease on more than one occasion, had some strong words for the president and some GOP rivals in the 2008 candidate pool.

As reported by the New York Times, Biden said of President Bush, "“This guy is brain dead. I know I’ll be quoted, I’ll be killed for that.”

“This is a guy who is on the balls of his heels, here’s a guy who is lower off in the polls than any president in modern history and he goes ahead and he does something that just flies in the face of the sensibilities of the American people.”

Next, Biden took New York City Mayor and Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani's terror-stance to task.

“I can hardly wait to debate Rudy Giuliani if he is their nominee,” he said. “Because I will eat his lunch. The next time I hear a Republican talk about us being tough on terror – give me a break!”

Last but not least, Biden charged after another Republican candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

Why? Did Bush plagiarize an English coal miner?

Just more hate speech from the liberal left, but since Biden is a presidential candidate, it will get ignored...its not like he’s an author or anything (ala Anne). And he’s a dem to boot, so the democrat poodles in media, will simply ignore or make excuses. Lets see what happens when Ms. Coulter calls Biden brain dead — or worse, a plagerist! :-)

That usually only happens when you diss the clintons.

Too much hair spray will make a person talk like that.

Wonder who he plagarized on that one? I seriously doubt he came up with it on his own, given his past history and all.

Brain dead? That’s not very original. Must be plagiarized.

I kind of have to agree with him.

I’d call the president brain dead, too, but not for the same reasons.

What type of politician makes these statements at random? I mean, seriously? Biden had to have been drunk or under the influence or something. No elected official makes comments off the cuff like this.
