Chants of 'Run, Joe, run' as Biden marches in Labor Day parade

Vice President Joe Biden issued a fiery call for a more equitable tax system as he marched with union workers Monday, diagnosing fairer taxes as a solution to a growing disparity between the wealthy and middle class.

“I hope everybody in America has a chance to become a millionaire. And we need some billionaires,” Biden said at a Labor Day gathering in Pittsburgh. “But let me tell you something, man. The tax code’s not fair. It’s simply not fair.”

Biden’s every public utterance is being heavily scrutinized of late amid questions of if, and when, he might enter the 2016 presidential race. For those who are looking for hints about how he might lean, there were surely signs that he relishes a campaign fight over the middle class.

The looks on those two guys’ faces just say it all.

[jospehm20]

Reminds me of “Stand up Chuck!”.

[tumblindice]

Liberal is redundant, demented is good.
But Creepy is the word for Curly Joe.

[Vision Thing]

After 7 years, I still don’t see what homobama sees in this guy.

[tumblindice]

Chester the molester! If he didn’t have SS, Joe would get his butt kicked twice before lunch every day

[FlingWingFlyer]

Rimshot Joe could use that old 60s bubblegum song, Quick Joey Small (Run, Joey, Run) by the Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus as his campaign theme song.

I really want this idiot to run, just to see Hillary’s reaction.

Who pulled the pic of Biden feeling up the biker chick?

[Mastador1]

Dunderhead: dunce, blockhead, moron, idiot, half-wit, full retard, throwback, vacuum, joe

Hey look, just because he's the VP is no reason to take it easy on him.

[familyop]

"A sure sign of desperation by the dems in wanting to replace the beast with this muttering idiot."

So even the Democrats would rather have a muttering idiot feminist in office than a cunning, shrewd feminist. It wouldn't help, though, because abominations would still be ruining the country from the shadow of the idiot.

After 7 years, I still don’t see what homobama sees in this guy.

Easy, Biden is his insurance against assassination.

After 7 years, I still don’t see what homobama sees in this guy.

Clinton chose Gore because he was too dumb to recogize the corruption that would be going on around him.

Biden was similarly qualiied.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

They failed to report the rest of the chant. It was “Run, Joe, Run, away from us”.

I provide the news the mainstream media doesn’t, even if it is subliminal.

[Cowboy Bob]

But 47% of the people (Democrats). Don’t pay any taxes. Is Biden telling them that now it’s time for them to pay?

[Ciexyz]

People from my old union were marching in that Pittsburgh parade. Unbelievable that they’d vote for four more years of the Obama administration.

“After 7 years, I still don’t see what homobama sees in this guy.”

That’s easy... He’s not a threat...

[Viking2002]

This was in some of my family's back yard. I'm extremely impressed that my (unemployed) brother-in-law didn't go full Daryl Dixon and put a crossbow shaft through his empty head. God knows he had cause, given the damage these cretins have done to the American worker in the last several years. And yet dumb shits by the thousands still came out to support this gluteal pimple. Unionists, I'm sure. Him and the likes of Trumka destroyed blue-collar jobs in the Northeast starting 40 years ago. Now they wanna gin up the votes from rubes who aren't ever gonna see those jobs come back to these shores. $35 an hour, bennies, and full job security for some union slob to sit there and hand out wrenches from a tool crib? America first, my ass. Sing for your supper like the rest of us.

[JoSixChip]

Reminds you of ‘Run, Forrest, Run’. I can see the similarity.

That's an image that gave me a chuckle!

“I hope everybody in America has a chance to become a millionaire. And we need some billionaires,” Biden said at a Labor Day gathering in Pittsburgh. “But let me tell you something, man. The tax code’s not fair. It’s simply not fair.”

Says the man who has been in the federal government for forty years and has actively worked to make it so. But please do run Slow Joe. It will be extremely entertaining to see two high ranking members of the obama administration fight each other while trying not to trash the deliberately small-p president.
