biden, palin spar on taxes, war, change

Published Oct 3, 2008

Sarah Palin and Joe Biden sparred in a high-profile debate in which Palin sought to reclaim her identity as a feisty reformer and Biden tried to undercut the maverick image of John McCain.

con amor commented this:

"Palin puts me in the mind of Milli Vanilli. As long as she is preforming the words that someone eles has written for her, you might think that she knows what she's talking about. But catch her with out those q-cards, and she's just another clown with lipstick."


Just a few problems with your views of Palin:

Below's a link to Biden getting it wrong on the very job he seeks.

 As for Milli Vanilli, well Biden seems to have a little problem with plagiarism, see the link below.

1. When asked about an Obama campaign ad mocking John McCain as computer illiterate, Biden said, "I thought it was terrible...if I had anything to do with it, we'd have never done it." Later, he had to admit he had never seen the ad.

2. Biden commented that "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me."

3. In Columbia, Mo., Biden shouted to state Sen. Chuck Graham, "Chuck, stand up. Let the people see you." He then realized that Graham uses a wheelchair.

4. At his first campaign rally with Barack Obama, Biden referred to his running mate as "Barack America."

5. Biden told Katie Couric, "When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened.' " FDR was not president when the stock market crashed in 1929, and televisions were still experimental.

The facts speak for themselves!!

I think Palin spanked his hinney!

BBBOOOOOOO, Your blog sucks!

R...of the truth - that was a terrible thing to post! At least this blog has facts to back it up.

Thanks true and blue, that was nice of you to say. I feel like someone just walked over my grave saying that to a tar heel fan. Let's not mention this to anyone.

I have never seen such a poor performance in a debate as I did last night in Palin. It was pathetic!!! I actually sat there wishing she would answer a least 1 of the questions put to her and “Gosh Darn” she never did. Independent of HER insane belief that the Iraq War is Part of “Gods Plan”, which alone should be enough to destroy McCain’s chances at President, she obviously has no clue how to address anything that does not involve going to a soccer game or feeding her husband beer (Joe six pack).

This maverick campaign has been gelded !!!

Biden was more eloquente if you can call his stutering eloquente.. Also his false emotion concerning his family. I know this may sound harsh, and I generally would not do this, but I really feel that was what we like to call Croccodile tears. This is from a man that stood up and said his family was killed by a drunk driver and that was proven to be absolutely false! In fact the report showed more to the fact that the accident was his wife's fault. Now you do not mis-state that in one place and them come and try to put on an emotional show as if "your still DEEPLY affected by it". If he was still depply affected by it, it would NOT be a political pointer for him. He was grasping for straws because he could not be as transparent as Palin and he could not handle that.

I've seen those Biden youtube clips and know of his plagarism...amazing how the dems forget that. It's like a whole team of horses pulling a wagon w/ blinders on.

jointheir, so he would only be allowed to have emotions about the loss of his family if certain circumstances were met?

Wow. I don't quite know what to say to you. That's one of the coldest things I've ever read here, and we've seen some doozies.

No that is now what I said. He can have emotions anywhere, but lie about it, paint a fascade to everyone, and quite frankly get "caught in the lie" and then now bring it up again with emotion? Would you believe the emotion if someone came to you and lied to you about that occurence, and then weeks later wants to play with you and ask you for money and even cry to try to get it amidst that same situation he lied about? Would you give him the money when you know he lied to your face about that SAME situation?
