Vice-President Joe Biden said he considered selling his home to help support his dying son’s family, prompting President Barack Obama to offer him financial support.

Obama offered to help Biden, who earns $230,000 annually, during one of their weekly lunches, the vice-president said in an interview with CNN published on Tuesday.

Beau Biden considered resigning from his post as Delaware attorney general because of medical concerns. He suffered from a mild stroke in 2010 and was found to have brain cancer in August 2013, while serving his second term as attorney general.

If you take the article at face value, it indicates 1) that since 2010 Biden accumulated a great deal of wealth out of proportion to his official income; and, 2) Obama was in on the schemes that helped him grab it.

What sort of money does that Jill Biden make and how does she make it?

So sad that Joe lost his ‘good’ son. So sad that Hunter is such a scumbag, but SLO-Joe still defends him.

The Pity Express is chugging along for Joe to use at his ‘discretion’. And ALL the MSM is onboard it.

Were someone to perform a thorough investigation of Beau’s terms as AG, I wonder what they would find?
