Biden: Opposing senators ‘have seen the Lord’ on gun control
Washington Times ^ | May 10, 2013 | By Dave Boyer

Vice President Joseph R. Biden said in a wide-ranging magazine interview that gun-control legislation will pass eventually because several senators who voted against it are experiencing a public backlash.

“To use the vernacular, there’s suddenly a lot of senators out there who have seen the Lord,” Mr. Biden told Rolling Stone magazine. “You find out that the senator from New Hampshire [Republican Kelly Ayotte] is in trouble; she voted no. I can name you four senators who called me and said, “Jesus, I guess you were right — maybe we can find some other way of doing this. Can we bring this back up?”

He said four senators who voted against expanded background checks of gun purchases in April have since approached him to say they’ve changed their minds.

In the hour-long interview, Mr. Biden also sounded like a candidate for the presidency in 2016, explaining at great length how much time he spends with President Obama on major decisions. He said he spends four or five hours each day with the president.

“It’s been a really good relationship, and everybody knows that — around here and around the world,” Mr. Biden said. “I speak for the president because of the relationship. And the only way that works is if you’re around all the time. Literally, every meeting he has, I’m in.”

This is why Benghazi and the IRS fiasco are OK. Don’t watch the hand that’s moving.

So this pimp for Obama uses the Lord’s name in vain in public. He is beneath contempt.

Slow Joe thinks he knows it all.

Even rubes in Scranton would be cautious about this mans leadership.

Biden is whistling in the dark. He forgets any Bill still has to get passed by a GOP controlled House.

It’s all BS.......gun control is a dead issue, and supporters face voter recriminations. Made up numbers like the 98% stat and this Biden nonsense won’t change that.
