"...the Delaware senator said in a speech at a Washington think tank."

Think Tank? More likely a Drunk Tank to unconscious winos.

And using 1970's talking points!

Who writes Biden's stuff?

Nice come back. Another Rat Senator traitor, what a surprise. Any Rat Senator's left who are not traitors to the nation?

Senator Joe Biden, who was seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, was accused of plagiarizing passages in speeches and interviews from the oratory of a British politician, Neil Kinnock. Kinnock (original)

"Why am I the first Kinnock in a thousand generations to be able to get to university? Why is Glenys the first woman in her family in a thousand generations to be able to get to university?"

"Was it because our predecessors were thick? Does anybody really think that they didn't get what we had because they didn't have the talent or the strength or the endurance or the commitment? Of course not. It was because there was no platform upon which they could stand."

Biden

"I started thinking as I was coming over here, why is it that Joe Biden is the first in his family ever to go to a university? Why is it that my wife who is sitting out there in the audience is the first in her family to ever go to college?"

"Is it because our fathers and mothers were not bright? . . . No, it's not because they weren't as smart. It's not because they didn't work as hard. It's because they didn't have a platform upon which to stand . . ."

"It turned out Biden had also borrowed passages from old campaign speeches by Robert Kennedy and had inflated his academic record. But oratory has a long tradition of borrowing and even "heavy lifting," as speechwriters call it, so Biden stayed alive in the presidential race. The last straw, however, came when it turned out that twenty years earlier Biden had received a failing grade in a law school course for plagiarizing a legal article (he'd given a single footnote while lifting five full pages from the article). Biden said he'd been unaware of the appropriate standards for legal briefs, but the public was unimpressed. His campaign collapsed and he withdrew from the race."

Isn't this the guy who steals others ideas as his own? Hes doing it again. This crap has already been said by others. Blather own Biden!

[fish hawk]

Hey Biden!! Bush took a few drinks about 30 years ago too. Can't you Dem idiots come up with anything new? Next thing he'll be saying that the Republicans stole the election in 2000. Duh

[Uncle Vlad]

Can't JB come up with anything original? ;)

Biden (like all libs) is a rube, an unsophisticated dolt, a hapless peasant. Incredibly, he took literally the President's remarks about WMD. If he had been able to understand the President's comments with a bit more nuance, he would have realized that WMD was hardly the primary reason for invading Iraq.

The primary reason was to give Iraqis freedom. Hence the name of the operation "Iraqi Freedom"

Really, it is embarassing that this fellow is in a position of leadership

The DemonRATS are so psychotic they will hallucinate anything! Reminds me of those who claim to see the image of the Virgin Mary in a $28,000 ten-year-old toasted cheese sandwich. The left can laugh at Bush till they puke about the fact that no WMDs were found in Iraq. In fact, Bush knows there were no WMDs were left in Iraq after the Soviets helped move them out of Iraq into Syria. The Soviets did thier job well and we should thank the Soviets for the fine job they did to detoxify Iraq. We can thank Bush for building the friendship with Putin that was able to give us such cooperation. Such cooperation has the pin heads of the left frothing at the mouth. Look at them appearing at a TV near you. They are so insane at the fact that our policy in Iraq is going so well, they are acting like rabid dogs. Just, for instance, look at the image of John Kerry to find the poster boy for Rabid Dog of the Left. Then look at the psychotic Mad Doctor, Howard Dean (R.D.L). In fact, the entire lot of DemonRATs are off their meds. In order to be a DemonRAT these days, one has to give up ones thinking processes to the ultra ultra far left (Communists is the operative word) and drink the Kool Aid. What you see is Red Teddy (R.D.L.), Box-0-Rocks Boxer (R.D.L.), Blowoffski Pelosi (R.D.L.), Soiled Harry Reid (R.D.L.), Dickie bin Durbin (R.D.L.), Rat Man Rangel (R.D.L.), Ossama Bin Biden(R.D.L.) and now Chuckybumps Schumer(R.D.L.) morphed into zombie machines from the Night of the Dead.
