VP Biden’s Union Friend, Video Taped and Arrested for Pickpocketing
Publius Forum ^ | 03/23/09 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 03/23/2009 6:06:55 AM PDT by Mobile Vulgus

During the late presidential campaign, vp candidate Joe "gimme a f*ing break" Biden visited with his friends at the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) in Iowa. Joe was in The Hawkeye State to participate in some union campaign boilerplate called Walk A Day In My Shoes. There he "walked" with an upstanding union fella named Marshall Clemons, custodian for an Iowa school system and SEIU member.

So, the vice president "walked" in Clemons' shoes one day helping him replace air conditioning filters and sweeping floors. It was a feels good day all around, for sure. But Clemons now has a new walk to take, one generally known as a perp walk. You see Clemons was video taped by an alert lobbyist stealing people's wallets out of unguarded purses and bags in the Iowa State House in Cedar Rapids. Police caught Biden's buddy with several stolen wallets when they arrested him later in the men's bathroom there...

Now, we have one set of "shoes" going to jail. I wonder if Biden will be walking in them again any time soon?

“... Clemons was video taped by an alert lobbyist stealing people’s wallets ...in the Iowa State House in Cedar Rapids...”

Hey - stealing from people’s wallets! That’s what SEIU does here in NY too!

Spin: he was only resorting to crime to supplement his income because he couldn’t afford: mortgage; healthcare; education; utilities.

Spinning him out to be the victim will be difficult, but I have every confidence the dhimmis will figure out a way...

I’m glad they found work that Biden is capable of.

So he was stealing from the wallets of innocent, hardworking citizens. In other words, he took a day to walk in Joe Biden's shoes.

This crook was at the Capitol lobbying for other people's money to pay for health care.

I'm sure this is the first time, he's done something like this and he just happened to get caught the first time, (sarcasm)

“Birds of a feather flock together.”

My theory as to why BO has turned against the House bill to go after Wall Street’s ill-gotten gains is that if such investigations were held of the financial affairs of Congress, at least half the Democrats would be heading for jail.

"....in the Iowa State House in Cedar Rapids. "

Just to set facts straight, the Iowa State House is in Des Moines, not Cedar Rapids.
