Yeah—a Senator (not to mention VP) who doesn’t mean what he says—what a pathetic joke!

Like Wrong Way Corrigan did in 1938, Joe Biden is fast becoming “Wrong Way” Biden.

These dummycrat bastages keep saying “no drilling, no new pipelines, no new refineries, no new nuke plants, no new natural gas” and when one of them says “no new coal fired plants” they sound surprised when clear thinking people take them seriously.

Well, that should go a long way to clinch Ohio and Pennsylvania for McCain unless O'bomber ejects Biden before the election..........

Those states need jobs...now. Telling them Clean coal technology isn't a possiblity won't help the O'bomber ticket win.

Coal is key.

Democrats oppose coal because we have plenty of it. Everything they do tends to increase our dependence on the sheiks. They do not want to drill, because it would decrease our dependence on the sheiks. They don’t want to develop oil shale, because we have enough oil shale to be independent. They don’t want to use coal for liquid transportation fuels because that would lead us to energy independence.

Talk about energy independence, and they’ll try to change the subject to wind energy, because Pelosi is invested in it. And it can be guaranteed that it won’t threaten the sheiks’ monopoly, so its a win-win for them.

Too bad Far Side cartoons aren't around anymore... I could see the caption "The day Joe Biden asked the wrong "Chuck" to stand up."

Hey,... Joe Bidens, here

I have 999 gaffes to go before they will allow me to sit-down

At which point, I will quickly Co-author a book, entitled, “Stand-up Chuck, & various Gaffe’s of Mine.” It will be a compilation of gaffes that include the dismayed responses of all the folks I’ve stunned, insulted, and embarassed along the way.

But here’s the kicker. Clinton’s business interests will instantly purchase the first million copies of my $29.95 dollar book. And I will retire in relative prosperity, considering my toes have been in my mouth on a daily basis. (Who votes that I change the book title to “The $3,000,000 Gaffe.”?)

I guess you all remember the arrest and imprisonment of a certain party who set out to destroy Barry (initails L.S.). And remember the Delaware warrant that the faithful son, Beau, executed as A.G. for the state of Delaware. Well, lets just say, we got the goods. This ole gaffer ain’t totally stupid. Why did you think I was promoted to be the VP?

Do you have any idea the kind of dirt. my boss has accumulated on her opponent? She will soon replace me on this ticket and win this election. Then it is only a matter of time........ before he will be forced to step-down, and will be out of office (assuming he makes it till the inaugeraation).

Then you can say, Hello Hillary! and watch fickle Bill turn the White House swimming pool into Hugh Hefner’s grotto & jacuzzi.

Fight global gaffing,
S.O.B.

NOW We know why Biden plagarized all of the time!! so much so that the Demorats deep sixed his presidential aspirations in 1988: only to have him return like a bad cancer again in 2008!
BIDEN is TOO STUPID! to speak as a Leader of the Free World, but rather when ever he speaks, his gaffes are funnier and more pathetic than Al Franken and Michael Mooore’s combined:-)

NOBAMA IN 08!!! NOBAMA’S EVER FOR AMERICA!!!!

Like I said before there were two issues that lost Ohio for Gore in 2000, guns and coal production. With this one gaffe Biden has probably sealed the deal on Ohio for Obama. We don’t like it when we ae lied to and one of them is lying and I’d guess that by his voting record that it isn’t Biden.
