Biden Talks Tough (says Bush is "Brain Dead")
The Caucus at NYTimes via Drudge Report ^ | July 5, 2007 | Adam Nagourney

DES MOINES — Joseph Biden, the Delaware Democrat running for president, is a man of strong opinions. During a campaign event in a Des Moines backyard today, Mr. Biden had some choice words for President Bush and two of the Republicans running for the White House.

“This guy is brain dead,” Mr. Biden said to surprised applause and laughter from the crowd. “I know I’ll be quoted, I’ll be killed for that.”

“This is a guy who is on the balls of his heels, here’s a guy who is lower off in the polls than any president in modern history and he goes ahead and he does something that just flies in the face of the sensibilities of the American people.”

A few minutes later, Mr. Biden turned his sights on Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, and a Republican running for president. “I can hardly wait to debate Rudy Giuliani if he is their nominee,” he said. “Because I will eat his lunch. The next time I hear a Republican talk about us being tough on terror – give me a break!”

Finally, Mr. Biden’s target was Mitt Romney, the Massachusetts Republican running for president. “I found Romney’s statements yesterday profound – crazy — when he talked about going to war with Iran,” he said. “Why are we talking about going to war with Iran?”

“I know I’ll be quoted, I’ll be killed for that.”

Actually, the person you are plagiarizing will be quoted.

I think we need to devise a Senate IQ test.

Someone PLEASE enlighten me on standards of living in the state of Delaware?

Actually pretty good, but Biden is an embarassment.

Tim Johnson of South Dakota suffered an aneurysm. He’s not been able to return to his Senate seat yet, but he isn’t brain dead. He’s undergoing rehab to try to regain his abilities that were affected by the aneurysm.

A debate between Biden and Rudy would be stopped by the Human Society one minute after Joe started yapping.

Politics is certainly messy, isn’t it? Three weeks ago, Jorge Bush was a hero to the RATS for his moral courage in trying to slam a bogus immigration bill down our throats, and all the dimwits loved him. Jorge is too slow on the uptake if he can’t figure out how tenuous a friendship with a RAT is. I’d say Biden is more right than wrong based on past performance. If you don’t believe Biden, ask his brothers, Teddy and Slick Willie.

[Biden] said. “Why are we talking about going to war with Iran?”

Hmmmmm... that is a tough one smart guy. Perhaps the correlations of Iran saying "Death to America" for 30 years, Iran's recent statement of saying that the USA "is going to perish in a fireball from hell," and oh.... let's see... oh yeah, they are attempting to arm themselves with nukes.

I thought Senator Biden was all goo-goo eyed over President Bush’s immigration bill.

If the President resorted to name calling, it would be front page news by the lsm. I’m sick of these dem creeps getting away with crap. Almost every one of them is a below the belt hitting con man.

While I’m not a Rudy-maniac, he was a federal prosecutor and trial lawyer and I’m sure he could out-debate the gas-bag Biden while half asleep.

Agree 100%.
