The reason Biden belittles them is because they aren't the standard immigrant culture, that relies on big Gov't, and the Rat party. They are odd balls to him and the lefty dingbats.
A very intelligent statement that lets Biden know he can't worm his way out of this one!! No pass!!
Thanks for the ping!
"In 2004, Senator John Kerry referred to Sikhs as terrorists"
Idiot!
The Sikhs used to ride out and protect the community from the Muslims. The fifth Sikh guru -- Guru Arjan Dev Ji -- was the first martyr to the Sikh cause. The Muslims boiled Him in oil!
These are some of the Sikh tenits of war:>http://allaboutsikhs.com/books/kjs/07.htm<
1. Not to attack the unarmed or the weak.
2. To Challenge before Attack.
3. Not to plunder private property or the property of peaceful citizens.
4. Due respect of ladies.
5. To help the belligerent party for the cause of Righteousness.
6. No Violation of Treaty and Agreements.
7. No Violation of Cease Fire Declaration.
8. No General Massacre.
9. Not to damage the places of Worship.
10. Not to harm persons who have surrendered.
11. Legitimacy of stratagem and not of deceit.
They are as opposite from the radical Muslims; as night is the opposite of day.
"You cannot go to a 7/11 [a chain store] or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent."
What would ones having a 'slight Indian accent' have to do with the act of 'going to a 7/11'?
I don't get it.
Shouldn't the 'stereotypical comment' read: One can not go to a 7/11 [a chain store] or a Dunkin Donuts without encountering 'a slight Indian accent'?
Biden was explaining this today on the "fair and balanced" CNN (which paired him up with Senator Reed of Rhode Island).
His explanation was that he was saying a good thing. He said that it used to be we only had really smart indians here, physicists and stuff like that, but now we were getting mainstream indians like those who would work in a 7-11.
I'm not sure even the host of the show understood why Biden thought this explanation was helpful to him, but went along, feeding softball questions like "so, someone characterising this as anti-indian would be wrong then?"
It would be fun though to see a protest between indian-americans, and american indians.
I agree with you. Biden is so stupid he can't even get his own stupid comment straight!;) Why do people keep voting for this ass?;)
"He said that it used to be we only had really smart indians here, physicists and stuff like that, but now we were getting mainstream indians like those who would work in a 7-11."
As he puts his OTHER foot firmly in his mouth by implying: that Indians -- "mainstream" Indians -- that work at a 7/11 (many also own the store as a franchise)are not so intelligent and, therefore, less than the aforementioned "elite"(in Biden's mind)Indians.
"Biden is so stupid he can't even get his own stupid comment straight!"
LOL!!!
