Vice President Joe Biden invoked Paul Ryan's deceased father to question the Republican vice presidential candidate's values:
"My dad used to have another saying, for real," Biden said. "And, by the way, I've been saying this for 30 years. And I'm glad to see that Congressman Ryan likes his dad, too, and quotes his dad. I mean that sincerely. But my dad [had] a lot of wisdom. Every time someone tell you, say, 'Look, let me tell you what's important to me, what I value.' My dad would go, 'No, no. Don't tell me what you value. Show me your budget, and I will tell you what you value.'"
Ryan's father died when the congressman was 15 years old.

No way! “Say it ain’t so, Joe” makes nobama look like a Rocket Scientist by comparison. Like Movin on Up, dumb cracka, smart Holder’s person. The dem base eats it up like shite with a spoon.
I think we should target Biden in the evaluation of their ticket. He’s been a non-factor but seriously, one could create a compilation of *his* gaffes that would make the “ticket” look ridiculous.
I saw CNN questioning Ryan’s “experience” (he’s only been in politics) - amazing, these questions only apply to one side. I’m so tired of the double standard. Yet Biden is such a tool.
I can’t wait for a Ryan/Biden debate :)
Probably couldn’t spell it..........
Did you see the list of debates? All four are "moderated" by hard core journ0list lefties.
If they had applied the same ‘standard’ to Obama that they are applying to Ryan, Hillary would be running for re-election.............
>> How utterly childish.
Frustrating, isn’t it? What a jerk.
Whenever Biden chaps my heinie, I just take a deep breath and recall these three soothing words, and I feel better:
“Vice Presidential Debate”
When was the last time Biden used this phrase? I admit that I am not a follower of Plugs.
Probably never. He just says whatever pops into his head.
Kinda like Jiffy-pop................
Hehehe! It’s going to be a beautiful thing to watch!
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
“”Every time someone tell you, say, ‘Look, let me tell you what’s important to me, what I value.””
I’ve been on this earth for a very, very long time and I can’t remember the number of times over all these years that this has come up in conversations!!! (s) WOW!
I’m sure Biden’s dad is screaming from a grave - (assuming he’s passed away) - LIAR, LIAR! He also said, “I knew you’d go far, Joe. Your perfect place was in politics with the rest of the idiots.”
Can't say that for sure about his boss.
Right - whatever, Joe.
This from a man who gives away 1.47% of his $ 370,000 income in 2011. A real one percenter. alright.
I wonder what kind of father/son conversation that type of sentence would be found in?.........none that I can think of........
What are the Obamamites going to be doing next in their dirty campaign, exhuming bodies of dead relatives?
Biden isn't really any moral exemplar himself -- lazy and plagiarizing as a student, smug, egotistical, overbearing, and a cheapskate as an adult. He has to say things like this, but nobody should take him seriously.
No thinking person takes Biden seriously.
It’s the ones that do that have me worried............
So I guess looking at Obama and Biden’s budget, one could say they really value communism.
“Stand up, Chuck! Oh...uh...God bless ya!”
