An Indian American political activist, to whom US Democratic Senator Joe Biden made a controversial remark that had raised the hackles of the community, has now come to the rescue of the senator.
Manish Antani, 23, a resident of Nashua, New Hampshire, and a self-described Indian activist, has been quoted as saying that he was "100 per cent behind him (Biden) because he did nothing wrong".
Biden was caught on a local television network as telling Antani, "I've had a great relationship (with Indian Americans).
In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian-Americans moving from India. You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking," Biden said.

And today's the day that cement hardened........
Drink the Koolaid Antani. Typical DemoZombie.
I know this is the biggest cliche one can say about this kind of story, but I'll say it anyone: Let's imagine how this story would play if a Republican said the same thing.

Sorry for double post.
Mr. Biden shops at my store too.
Here's $20 and a 711...now go defend me!
A few years ago I was watching the McNeil/Lehrer News Hour and Biden was a guest.
Can't recall what the issue of the day was, but Biden remarked The British, as usual, will do nothing.
This at a time when the RAF was flying daily sorties over Iraq. (Remember the no-fly zone?)
I hope he does run for President in 2008 - all his crass remarks will come back to haunt him.
When you have power as Biden does there is always some suckbutt, lickspittle that will say anything to get on the good side.
Hey Indian activist...you are suffering from "battered wife syndrome".
What did biden know about 7-11 and when did he know it? Funny he should make mention just days before the attacks in Mumbai.
