Considering he has over 50 brothers and sisters, there's lots more "in-laws" to get.

Same here. I was thinking Biden "plugged out" after lauding Obama with praise.

Given this guy's activities, e.g, funding Abu Sayyaf, I think it's a good thing that he was taken out.
Taken out by thieves, but taken out all the same.
