Webloggin » Joe Biden is Insignificant, and He Knows it

Senator Joe Biden has run for the Presidency in the past and he usually drops out of the race because he gets no support. Right now he is near the bottom of the barrel and the top tier candidates spend more on toilet paper than he has raised. Joe knows he has no chance and he probably just wants his name in the history books as an also ran so his great grand children can talk about how Poppa Joe almost made it *snicker*.

Joe has to do something, anything, to get media attention. Biden could capture Osama bin Laden and would not be on the news (though he would probably talk bin Laden to death). So what does he do? He attacks the President which seems to be the Democratic past time. In a recent speech (who knew he even had one) Joe Biden said that President Bush was brain dead. Joe, and many other Democrats like to act as if President Bush is not a bright person. They insult his intelligence all the time and, of course, your Democratic candidate is so much smarter, or not brain dead, as it were.

So perhaps people can explain why Joe Biden voted for the war in Iraq? I know there are those, including Hillary Rodham, who say they were misled into war. If this is true, what does it say about their intelligence? Hillary, and many others, have stated they thought they were voting to give the option for war and that they believed that negotiations would be ongoing. The title of the resolution they voted on is, “A joint resolution to authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against Iraq.” If they could not figure they were voting for use of our armed forces (war) then what does it say about their intelligence?

Biden’s contention is that President Bush granted clemency to Libby and that shows Bush is brain dead.

“This is a guy who is on the balls of his heels, here’s a guy who is lower off in the polls than any president in modern history and he goes ahead and he does something that just flies in the face of the sensibilities of the American people.” New York Times

For those who do not know it, Biden voted not guilty in Clinton’s impeachment proceedings which basically excused Clinton for his illegal behavior. Not to mention that the President’s low approval ratings are still higher than the approval rating of the Congress. As much as the polls show people are dissatisfied with the President, they show that people are even more dissatisfied with Congress. Calling the President brain dead will not make those numbers go up.

But, it did get Biden some ink. When Paris Hilton gets more press for going to jail then a guy running for President, drastic measures are needed. Biden just showed how desperate, and insignificant he really is.
