Sen. Biden stumps in Kentucky (Biden:"I'm going to shove my rosary beads down their throats")

"If I'm the nominee, Republicans will be sorry," said Biden, a Roman Catholic who ran for president in 1988. "The next Republican that tells me I'm not religious I'm going to shove my rosary beads down their throat."

Biden said that in most cases, Democrats have themselves to blame for losing in so-called red states such as Kentucky and Ohio.

"We have put up too many candidates who can't connect with middle-class Americans," he said. "In the last two (presidential elections), the Democratic Party has lost its base, the middle-class votes. ... And we have played into the hands of the Republicans. We've allowed so-called social issues to be so divisive."

State Sen. Julian Carroll, a Frankfort Democrat and former governor, agreed. He said the party has to seek out the voters it is losing to Republican candidates.

"If we define who we are, the middle class will vote Democratic again," Carroll said.

I think he'd be better off using them as a prayer device but what do I know....

They need to kick the Muslims out but they won't. I feel no sympathy for them.

He really didn't say that, did he? I'm not catholic but aren't rosary beads used for something other than shoving into bodily orifices?

sure thing joe, of course you would do that after you pulled them out of your butt, since that is what you think of god anyways. on the one hand, this is very good, we need more dems pretending to be god loving. after all, in doing so, all sane people will see what utter liars they really are.

I'm sure Our Lady is delighted by this touching sentiment.

For the record, Joe Biden, I am a Republican and I'm telling you that you are a fake Catholic. Feel free to try and shove rosary beads down my throat - you;ll find it an enlightening experience.
