Oh, well, as long as it’s been rumored his great-grandfather was one of them then there’s no question he’s one of the fold.
How can this puke get away with saying these incredibly stupid, patronizing things? Biden isn’t even “blue collar” background, but was the son of a usually well-off sometime government apparatchik and businessman who lost his job for about a year, during which time Biden had to stop going to the exclusive private school to which his family sent him. Or maybe he didn’t even have to stop attending the school - I don’t recall the details right now. But this pandering and fake down-home stuff that he does is disgusting, and a lie to boot.
Can anyone make out what that little card says?
First Lebanon, now Castlewood?
SW Virginia is UMWA land but I think Obama is Anethma
“Then or now? Hmmmmm. Tough question. Lemme check my calendar and get back to ya on that.”
Gotta love how these two clowns have to go back generations to connect with the regular folks... Obama’s Grandfather was in “Patton’s Army” ya know. And Biden’s Great Grandfather was a dang coalminer.
Palin IS a NRA member. Palin’s husband IS a union member. McCain IS a POW veteran.
If you tell lies long enough they become truth
Obama and Biden must be taking the miners for stupid. If they're not a friend to the coal industry today they never will be. It was Obama the proposed getting the whole electric industry away from ALL fossil fuels and that includes coal.
Isn’t it the Dems who have fought for years to make coal a bad word?
No you can not use coal. It is dirty.
“As we Christians say, they will have an epiphany.”
Forgive him Lord...for he apparently knows not what a patronizing nincompoop he is.
The next time Old Joe tells the truth, it will be the first time.
Apparently,ethics and honesty were not high on subjects taught at his VERY expensive school in Delaware. Either that, or he skipped those classes to watch his favorite football team - the Eagles, no the Steelers, no the Packers, What the h&ll is the name of this town anyway?
Biden left “coal country” 55 years ago when he was 10 years old. Biden may not be aware of the fact that the coal fired plant in VA is very controversial as far as the environmentalists are concerned. The Sierra Club and their allies have tried to shut it down.
IF B.S. WERE CONCRETE HE’D BE A TURNPIKE!!!
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
And Biden is a dung miner.
Something “Vote Republican”. I think it says “Friends of the middle class vote republican” but I can’t be positive.
Sen. Joseph Biden, the Democratic candidate for vice president, released his tax returns for the years 1998 to 2007. The returns revealed that in one year, 1999, Biden and his wife Jill gave $120 to charity out of an adjusted gross income of $210,979. In 2005, out of an adjusted gross income of $321,379, the Bidens gave $380. In nine out of the ten years for which tax returns were released, the Bidens gave less than $400 to charity; in the tenth year, 2007, when Biden was running for president, they gave $995 out of an adjusted gross income of $319,853.
