I'm sorry if the Biden story was the camel-breaking straw for Cadaverous Pallor. It's a harmless tale of complete fluffy goof.
When I think of all the horrible stuff posted about Sarah Palin (a lot of it by ME), I would think she'd be GLAD the worst thing that could be said about Joe Biden is he didn't notice a seated guy was in a wheelchair.
Actually, there's a
lot worse that can be said about Biden. Despite his reasonable-sounding protestations to the contrary, I think he's in the pocket of Big Banking and his suport of the bill to make it harder for consumers to erase their credit card debts in bankruptcy is going to prove particularly pernicious now that the banks are on the verge of going bust and - just as they did in the early 80's - will be bailed out by the Feds and make all the money back with usurous credit card interest and penalties.
I'm sure this is the day the dastardly bankruptcy bill was designed for. Millions of Americans can't pay their mortgages, still more and more will be unable to pay their credit card debt .... and none of this debt will be forgiven, thanks to Joe Biden and others in Congress.
It may be true there were far worse bankruptcy bills proposed, and far more draconian measures desired by the Banks ... but the law passed with Biden's support is bad enough, and will mean a return to medievel peonage (i.e., debt slavery) for millions of Americans in the years to come unless that law is changed (I haven't heard Obama say a peep about it, though).
Oh, and SuPeR K! is furious with Biden for putting a rider on some harmless education bill that basically makes it a crime to attend a Rave. (How can CP support a candidate whose VP choice criminalized Raves??!?!)
I understand the knee-jerk reaction when the camel's back is broken, and too often it's merely a fluffy down feather that breaks it. But there: Now I've laid out the
real dirt on Mr. Biden ... much more worthy of breaking the non-existent rules that we say only nice things about the Obama campaign in this thread.
