He also said he was so proud of his son for taking a job making $100,000 for MBNA (to whom he was crafting anti-bankruptcy legislation which favored them) when he could have been working on Wall Street for $150,000 as a graduate from law school.
Hey Joe, $150,000 in New York would have been a pay cut compared to making $100,000 in Wilmington, Delaware, Donkey Boy!

Biden has a great record. Against the gulf war, against the surge, against drilling for oil, against Bork Clarence Thomas, Alito and Roberts. 3rd most liberal voting record in congress. Palin could have a field day with this guy.

Since he voted AGAINST the surge, it is now fair to say that
“He was for the surge before he voted against it.”
