Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday that the gay community freed “decent straight people” from being intimidated to speak out against homophobia at a progressive political convention.
“They freed us,” he said. “It used to be that the vast majority of the American people who were not at all homophobic felt intimidated if they spoke up, felt intimidated if they were in a circumstance where someone made fun of, or was demeaning to, someone who was part of the [gay] community… so many decent straight people who were just as afraid to speak out now have been given their voice by the gay community.”
Biden was keynoting the major progressive convention Netroots Nation, which bills itself as “a giant family reunion for the left.”
He repeatedly thanked the audience of activists and bloggers, crowing that no longer are people called “socialists” for asserting that healthcare is a basic human right, not a privilege. “You made that happen!” he congratulated them.
He also touted what he considers economic triumphs of the progressive agenda, saying, “We literally saved this country from moving from a great recession into a depression.”
This man is officially the dumbest vice president in history. Let me GUARANTEE you that Biden was calling homosexuals faggots back when it wasn’t ‘cool’ to be degenerate. Just as I am sure Harry Reid has used the N word for most of his life.
how about....gay activists stole our voice. we are not allowed to say boo.
I have no words for this guy. Other than what a clown.
It’s good that Biden is no longer afraid of faggots. After all, his boss is one. As for his cultural philosophy, it is flexible. We can expect to see him praising the virtues of polygamy and bestiality soon, just like he praises the virtues of homosexuality and pedophilia now.
When it comes to the “vast majority” of Americans, Biden, out of all his clueless idiocy, needs to realize that Americans have been hoodwinked by media, education, and the power of government into thinking homosexuals are mostly normal, everyday people who work, have loving relationships, raise normal families, and act decently in society. That isn’t the image Americans are going to be inundated with as the pervert agenda worms its way further out of the closet. Vast majorities can change their minds.
Joe Biden. The comedy gift that keeps on giving.
I’m tired of all this queer pressure.
Just how much acid did old Joe drop in the ‘60s?
