If that was your defense against her own ethics issues, which remain unresolved, I am unimpressed to say the least.


Unresolved??

I guess for people like you it would be. It has to be. I mean isn't there an investigation going on somewhere?

Use your brain Trev. I know it must really piss you off to find out how much of a dishonest quack Biden really is, and it puts you in the awkward position of picking between a dishonest politician and one that didn't go to an Ivy league school, but please, for the love of God, get back on your high horse and do what's right. The country has had enough of Bidenesque politicians.

I would check it, not praise it for being right without really looking into it carefully.

And who the hell is writing up these fact check sites anyway? Do you know what their biases are? No. But we should read all the viewpoints and deduce from that the likely answer. Your tax attorney website proved he is too biased the way he was entirely one-sided. If you are too thick headed to admit this, then there is nothing left for me to say.


Kevin, I know you are trying real hard to cover your butt on this, but you jumped in head first. We all saw it. Now just give it a rest and stop pretending that you scrutinized those campaign claims.

Done preaching, Kevin? Seriously thinking I am really upset about Biden? Why, because I haven't weighed in on yet another pointless debate with the man who never gives an inch or admits a fault? Please, give it a rest. It is very clear to me that it is your ego invested in this.

Cover my butt for what? I encourage reading all the fact check websites, including those on the campaign sites. You send us to a strictly biased democrat tax geek who wears his bias on his sleeve. I mean I probably wouldn't have said anything, but you criticized Pok for linking stuff from McCain's website because it was biased.

I am just pointing out your double-standard. You think somehow prestigious education can excuse bias.

You are the one who has been attacking Palin for sins that don't even begin to compare to Biden's. The reason you don't want to defend Biden has nothing to do with yoru distaste for me, but rather your inability to defend him without looking like a hypocritical moron.

It is impossible.

Not after the way you held Palin to a ridiculously high standard. You simply can't argue on behalf of Biden's deceptions and stupid remarks. I wasn't attacking Biden last week, as you were attacking Palin, so I'm not the one with a bruised ego here. Yours is teh ego with everything to lose here. Too bad you don't want to salvage it. Can't say I blame you though.

These are backed up by FactCheck.org. Facts are facts if these are not true show me otherwise.
I think it would be morally right to lie about your religion to edit the article favorably.

More foreign policy expertise coupled with experiential knowledge of our inner government by Senator Biden:

“After seven years, in which our senior diplomatic personnel were not allowed to make a single contact with Iranians, the Bush administration realized the absurdity of its own policy and sent our leading diplomat to Iran,” he said. “The Assistant Secretary of State as he went to Tehran, sat down at the instruction of the President of the United States.”


The event Biden described never happened. The “meeting” was in Geneva, Switzerland when Under Secretary of State William Burns sat in on a discussion between Iranian representatives and the other “P5 +1″ political directors involved in nuclear talks. The meeting, while a first, was not a negotiation; Burns was there merely as an observer, and had no formal role or talks with the Iranians.

Senator Biden is ready to lead!

Well for Dude this would just be an Oooopsie. For EA, just a silly gaffe.

But I thought foreign policy was supposed to be his area of expertise? Wasn't this supposed to be where he trounces Palin? Then wouldn't it help to reiterate accurate commentary on FP instead of blathering gibberish?

People will just take it for granted that he knows what he is talking about and that he has integrity, and that's the sad thing. They've let the media sway them into thinking Palin is the butt of this election when he is right under their nose.

I'm still getting a kick out of the way Biden and Obama are suggesting to the world that the duties of a Senator, when faced with an obvious crisis, isn't to make the concern known on the Senate floor, but rather to shoot a private, unverifiable "email" to the Treasury dept.

I'm sick of hearing this BS about how Obama "warned" of the subprime crisis "two years ago." He wants us to just take his word for it while there is nothing on record that documents him ever saying a word about it. McCain is on record in trying to reform FM/FM.

Also, this BS about how the republicans are to blame for the FM/FM meltdown because of deregulation. John Kerry and Joe Biden are spitting fire about how this is the case. BULL! They are lucky Palin/McCain are not trying to blame the Democrats because there is far more evidence to support that case, including recent comments from Bill Clinton who said it was he and the republicans who were blocked by the democrats from reforming FM/FM. More than 160 economists wrote a petition against the bailout and they seem to believe the problem from the beginning was letting government have a hand in the matter to begin with, which of course, was originally a Democrat idea. The bailout doesn't fix the problem, it only puts a band-aide over a harpoon wound.

LOL!

Reform, like hiring a lobbyist from Freddie Mac to be your chief of staff in the Senate?

Reform, like telling regulators to take it easy on your buddy Charles Keating?

Or do you just mean reform like taking $15,000 a month from Freddie Mac for 3 years or so?

Oopsie... better run to Newsbusters, fast!
