Biden Blamed Bush, Gingrich for Virginia Tech Shootings
American Spectator ^ | April 7, 2009 | Jeffrey Lord

It was President Bush's fault.

And Newt's.

When a student went on a rampage and killed 32 students at Virginia Tech in April of 2007, then-Senator Joe Biden, at the time running for the Democrats' presidential nomination, knew exactly who to blame. He pinned the blame squarely on the man in the Oval Office. And former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Now Vice President Joe Biden is silent on the topic of presidential responsibility for the mass murders in Binghamton and Pittsburgh. Nor has he laid blame at the feet of current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

I had a professor in college once who went on to blame society for the murder of John Lennon. (This was a week after Lennon had been killed.)

I stopped him dead in his tracks on a logical approach that blamed the murderer rather than society.

He was taken aback, and then said, "You're right."

We need to stop this nonsense about blaming everyone else except for the one who committs the crime.

Good grief!

Biden is a despicable POS, who collected a paycheck all his years in the Senate doing nothing. Except blame PUBs for everything.

Hey Delaware MSM, want a good story? Investigate Biden’s finances; Carper's “alleged “ wife-beating and Kaufmann’s years as Biden’s chief aide. No interest? Didn't think so.

“When we fought the Yankees and annihilation was near,
Who was there to lead the charge that took us safe to the rear?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone;
Old “Toot your own horn - pone.”
Jubilation T. Cornpone, a man who knew no fear!

When we almost had ‘em but the issue still was in doubt,
Who suggested the retreat that turned it into a rout?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone;
Old “Tattered and torn - pone.”
Jubilation T. Cornpone, he kept us hidin’ out!

With our ammunition gone and faced with utter defeat,
Who was it that burned the crops and left us nothing to eat?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone;
Old “September Morn - pone.”
Jubilation T. Cornpone, the pants blown off his seat!

HURRAY!

When it seemed like our brave boys would keep on fighting for months,
Who took pity on them and ca-pit-u-lated at once?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone; Unshaven and shorn - pone.
Jubilation T. Cornpone, he weren’t nobody’s dunce!

Who went re-con-noiter-ing to flank the enemy’s rear,
Circled through the piney woods, and disappeared for a year?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone;
Old “Treat ‘em with scorn - pone.”
Jubilation T. Cornpone, the missing mountaineer!

Who became so famous with a reputation so great,
That he ran for president and didn’t carry a state?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone;
Old “Wouldn’t be sworn - pone.”
Jubilation T. Cornpone, he made the country wait!

Stonewall Jackson got his name by standing firm in the fray.
Who was known to all his men as good ol’ “Paper Mache?”
Why it was Jubilation T.”

I do not remember Biden blaming Bush. Do you have a link to that?
