Other than Schumer is there another Dem who loves the hearing the sound of his or her voice?

Did anyone in this room expect anything different. The dims are piles of manure. If they tell you it is sunny, bring your umbrella.

I remember reading Joe Biden's autobiography. I think it was called "Living History" or something like that.

What? You...you mean he didn't write that either??

Oh me oh my...

I wonder if Biden name dropped his buddy RINO Hagel in this interview, like he does in so many of his interviews.

Where to start? Kerry, Kennedy, Pelosi, Dean (although Howlin Howie's been pretty quiet lately) - I wouldn't try to get between them and a microphone, either.

Of course. Specter gave them a couple of extra months to get all their ducks in a row, and the Republican leadership let him get away with it.

Why is it that Joey Biden is the first clymer in a thousand generations to think that he can win the presidency after being forced out of the race previously for plagiarizing a British socialist?

Biden: Chances of Alito Filibuster Higher...

What was THAT? I just felt a light breeze. I think it came from the WashDC direction...

Maybe I was just mistaken, and it was just a little fly whizzing by.

Who knows... who cares.

Biden is a nitwit with a worse comb-over than Donald Trump.

Biden and the other democrats who support Al Qaeda in the US Senate need to explain their treason.
