Biden to Europe: 'get over' Bush election

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., urged Europe to "get over" the fact President Bush was re-elected and work with the United States on common problems.

"I spent a little time in Europe recently, and I have one simple message: Get over it. Get over it. President Bush is our president for the next four years, so get over it and start to act in your interest, Europe," Biden said during the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing to confirm U.S. Secretary of State nominee Condoleezza Rice. "But that requires us to engage in the hoped-for diplomacy from the gentle lady from Stanford."

1. Cue the knee-jerk hate-fest (nt).

[NewYorkerfromMass]

31. Too predictable.

Apparently the next step is to attempt to control Bush's actions. I don't care. Whatever they (Dems) have to do.
I kind of like that Biden is the guy who said this. Everyone here hates him anyways.

[Guaranteed]

58. Seriously- how bad could it be?

I mean, Bush is an okay guy.

[neuvocat]

2. That's what Kerry told the U.S.

Now look at what's happened.

[Benhurst]

3. Shut-up, Joe. He may be your president; but he's not theirs or

mine. We prefer the duly-elected variety of leadership.

:spank: typo corrected

[KDLarsen]

54. That's the core of the problem, at least for me..

.. I have no say in the US elections, but everything an elected US president say or does, have a knock-on effect in Europe.

[The Zanti Regent]

84. Flush YOU, Joe Bidet!

That is what I will call you from now on. Bartcop was right to post you with your dancing pink tutu!

[smirkymonkey]

4. Fuck Biden!

Whore.

[IndianaGreen]

26. Fuck Biden!

The old plagiarizer and discredited Cold Warrior is lower than warm spit.

I won't get over Bush, and neither should the Europeans. The only common problem we have is that Bush is the greatest threat to peace since Adolf Hitler!

[truthpusher]

32. Uckfay Idenbay!

[saigon68]

81. I remember him at the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings

He gave old "LONG DONG SILVER" a pass then. He is a sleazy little DINO who only cares about himself. He is dispicable.

[Arkana]

5. Biden can suck my left nut

[Massachusetts]

6. "Say it ain't so Joe"...

:wtf:

[Just Me]

7. Is this a HATE ANYONE OTHER THAN THE F*CKERS POST?

Or what? O8)

On edit: and EWWWWW I see everyone jumping on the right-wing's anti-democracy HATE wagon,....so goshdamn fast.

Aren't we doing just fine in advancing their cause?

"They" got us pegged,...to pit us against eachother,...just like they've done to the US,...pit and split, divide and conquer,...to "win" an election.

*sigh*

[bpilgrim]

18. no, it's a HATE all the ENABLERS thread

whoever furthers the arrogant, undiplomatic agenda of the neoCONs, right down to their rhetoric are gonna get called on it on this forum at least .

maybe biden and the rest of our leaders will LEARN/CHANGE if they hear from enough of us.

isn't that what we are all after? well then it is our duty to make our displeasure known so they can ACT.

peace

[IndianaGreen]

28. Biden is NOT one of "us"!

Any asshole that supports Bush is a traitor and scum, and should be treated with the utmost contempt.

[Just Me]

42. I guess, maybe, I got lost in the "us" versus "them" thingy.

Maybe, it's all just getting a bit too dogmatic or,...hell, I dunno,...

The only "them" that I know AGAINST "us" is the neoconimperialist regime in power. "THEY" are the ones threatening our people, our liberties, our country, our world.

The neoconimperialists are the only "them" that threatens "us",...in my world,...which expects NO perfection.

[IndianaGreen]

43. I got news for ya: PNAC = PPI

They are two sides of the same imperialist coin!

[Dhalgren]

53. Absolutely right!

Why would anyone think Biden was anything other than a "neoconimperialist". He has supported Caligula and his policies right down the line - only arguing about "methodology" and "planning". These fucks have got to get it that it is the policies themselves that are wrong, not just their implementations!

[Guaranteed]

59. No, we love Bush, just like Biden!

Get over it!

[iamjoy]

8. What's He Smoking?

That language doesn't sound very diplomatic.
I expected more from Biden.

[bahrbearian]

21. Chimpweed ?

[deminflorida]

9. Biden, you'll never get out of the gate in Iowa during your 2008

bid for President. Neither will Hillary, Kerry, or Edwards. Get over it.

Just get over it.

[Tempest]

10. NOT working with Bush is in Europe's best interest

They're better off forging closer ties with Russia, Japan and China.

[anarchy1999]

14. Well, you see it, I see it, how many others see it?

US of A, and "god bless america" crew are f'd. The rest of the world is not going to follow the mandate of "get over it". Instead, they are resolutely not going to get over it.

[goldengreek]

55. You're absolutely right.

The United States is definitely the number one threat to Europe's security. Biden can fuck off and get over that.

[Poppyseedman]

89. The USA is the number one threat to Europe security ?

Call me ignorant, but I can think of about a dozen greater threats than the USA to Europe.

Care to explain it to me?

As a matter of fact, I don't see the USA has a threat to Europe at all.

They seem to routinely ignore our wishes regardless of of world dominance

[russian33]

11. The problem with that statement is he wants diplomacy from Rice...

..but then says that....that statement is NOT diplomacy.

[Capt_Nemo]

12. Europe to Biden:

Bankrupt yourselves in the ME wars and then we will get medieval in your colective arse!

[goldengreek]

56. Oh, but my friend...

We're doing such a great job getting medieval on ourselves. It's sunk into the heads of quite a few people that America's falling apart. The sad part was this was not only a predictable thing, it was preventable.

[Boswells_Johnson]

13. "Get over it" is just as moranic sounding as "Whatever"

Why do the Republicans keep using it? They might as well say "Kiss our ass", for all the good it's gonna do.

People are not going to follow that type of foolishness.

[Anakin Skywalker]

20. Well Said, My Friend.

[moggie]

80. New national motto

In 1956, "In God We Trust" was declared the national motto of the US. It's looking a little tired now, and I suggest that "Get Over It" should be adopted instead. You could put it on your money.

[Niccolo_Macchiavelli]

15. Sure.... Europe got over the Rheinland, Austria, Czechia....until Poland

and it took an additional Danmark, Norway and France before the real fighting back begun.

No Europe didn't forget Poland. And it may take a country or more more until the rest of the Globe is prepared to respond.

And no Europe won't get over it. But go ahead and give the Allies a justification to dissolve NATO.

[indepat]

16. WTF?

[drummer55]

17. Lose the mindset

that the term democrat is any different than republican these days.

by their acts shall ye know them....

Time to create a new party different from the business as usual demopublicans and republicrats.

Hopefully Boxer and the 31 representatives who actually get it will come to the same conclusions and help move our country into a new direction away from this hateful single party state by creating a new power bloc.

22. How sad

How very sad. Here we have a woman, a National Security advisor, who lied, over and over, who condoned the attack on Iraq,who is complicit and responsible for promoting a slaughter on 1oo,oo0 innocent people, who spouts lies one after the other, being confirmed as the person who will represent us all over the world and impliment the fascist policies of an insane man

Is it only me, an ornidary citizen who is disturbed by the actions of these people? I know fascism when I see it, and we are it.

How sad the condition of my country, when advocating this comes from those who should not be doing so.

How sad. I am so sad to see it happen over and over.

[shawn703]

23. If Europe acts in their interest

It wouldn't be good for the USA.

[sonicx]

24. "Bend over and take it, Bitch!"

:eyes:

[teryang]

40. Get over it translation-

you've got it right! That's what it means. We fuck/kill people and seize their resources, then their supposed to smile about it.

[Lorien]

25. It's really disappointing when one of ours

joins the opposition in telling the rest of the planet to sit down, shut up, and fall into line OR ELSE. :grr:

Meanwhile, the value of the dollar continues to fall against the Euro...

[Piperay]

27. Biden should tell chimp

that he needs to get over himself and work with Europe.

[agincourt]

34. I second the motion,

but we know Biden won't do that. I don't know why our guys are plugging for Hee-Haw anyway after one of the dirtiest Repub elections in memory. They won on lies if they won at all.

[Algorem]

29. Those hair plugs might've grown in too far,better go to his hairologist

for a brainscan.I apologize already,but they say he'll run for pres. next time and it'll be hair plugs this and hair plugs that.

[Pithy Cherub]

30. Joementum is spreading...

What is our containment policy - yikes Biden! :scared:

[rooboy]

33. This is why I DON'T like Joe Biden.

this isn't the first time he's talked down to Europe like he's some sort of junkyard dog. He has no diplomatic skill whatsoever.

[TankLV]

68. This is also why I dislike bidden - he's ALWAYS doing something like this.

Not just to Europe, but kissing bunkerboy's ass, telling us progressives and true Democrats to shut up and sit down.

Can't figure out who I detest more - Lieberman or him.

I will never forgive him for the way he's acted these past 4 years.

Never.

He is on my ever increasing shit list.

[NYC]

72. Why did he even say this?

It doesn't seem that it really fit into the conversation.

[WritersBlock]

35. Me to Biden: Bite me.

On edit:

Twice, because I'm not gonna get over it, either.

[donheld]

36. Sounds like Biden needs to get over himself

who the hell does he think he is?

[Tempest]

37. I wonder what Biden has to say to China?

Bush is imposing sanctions on Chinese companies, and China says it's not in the U.S.' best interests to do so.

I hope Biden considers the $800 billion China owns of the U.S. before formulating an answer.

[GOPBasher]

38. Europe the Biden:

Go fuck yourself.

[Guns Aximbo]

39. The U.S. should

get over the fact that not every country in the world will bend over and take it like a man.

[aquart]

41. Arrogance doesn't become a failed superpower.

[Gloria]

44. Gloria to Biden.....Go screw yourself

eom

[ldf]

45. and biden can get over the fact that he can

KISS MY ASS!

:grr:

why the hell should i expect europe to get over something that I have no intention of getting over?

[jhain]

46. I watched him say that...

and I literally SUNK into a chair.
I was stunned.
and disgusted
and PISSED.

shut it all off then.
Knew I was not even going to attempt to keep my breakfast in place while watching Sleezey lie over and over and over.

Damn Biden.

[RadiDem]

47. Fuck Biden ! The DINO's are shedding their skins

Assholes

[tom_paine]

48. Biden's lickspittle tough guy act is disgusting in the context

That Europe holds the last flickering flame of freedom in it's hands, outside of a handful of other nations, some in S America, Japan, S. Africa perhaps.

The Free World should remain quite guarded, I think, when dealing with BushPutinist states or Communist states.

Rightfully so, Europe. Rightfully so.

(I hate to say it, but it is the unvarnished truth)

I mean, back in the old USA when we were the capital of the Free World, did we deal unguardedly with the Soviets?

Why expect Europe to behave any differently now that the shoes are on the opposite feet?

And hey Biden! Maybe you should have tried talking tough to your Emperor when his people rigged Ohio and Florida. Or when he lied to your face about Iraqi WMDs.

[SammyWinstonJack]

49. Taking arrogance lessons from the Chimp?

:eyes:

[proudbluestater]

50. Bite me

[Mari333]

51. Mari333 to Biden: Get your head out of Bush's arse n/t

[fshrink]

52. Well... That's our new motto right there!

It's on its way of becoming a way of life. The gentle lady of Stanford, the Gentleman of Crawford, Sire Kerry in his shining armor and the bishop of Clinton in his infinite wisdom. What is this? Anybody feels humiliated here?

[DemBones DemBones]

57. I was watching it live on C-SPAN, heard that, and

just shook my head sadly. What were you thinking, Joe? You think this will make you popular with the Bushies?

It was such an unnecessary comment.

[truthpusher]

60. These guys are so caught up in their world and how to gain...

...just a few cud-o's, that they are willing to throw out there principle's.

Joe is allowing the bullies to rub-off on him.

[billbuckhead]

61. Instead of having a Democratic party, we should have a EU party.

Maybe they can take over the USA by vote. The EU constitution is better than the Dem platform anyhow. The EU could give American liberals the deciscive economic clout we presently lack in our current poilitical duopoly. Maybe they could start by taking over our absurd healthcare system. Hey Britain is trying to save money by outsourcing operations in France.

[rpannier]

62. Kiss my ASS joe

The two biggest democratic losers in the senate are both named joe. Maybe it's the name?

[Algorem]

63. Is Biden in love with himself or does it just seem like it?

[sleepyhead]

90. He's always been in love with himself.

Watch him talk - it's as if he is looking in an imaginary mirror, admiring himself. Just loves the sound of his own voice, even if he is spouting gibberish.

[EFerrari]

64. Didn't ANY of you notice that this way a way to say that ALL

of Europe HATES Bush? After all that CSPAN watching, don't you know how to hear a lefthanded knife? Come on.

[lovuian]

65. Friend of Mine got back from Europe!!! Anti Bush Anti USA

is everywhere!!! They are going to make our lives miserable the whole 4 years!!! They feel we deserve it for reelecting him!!! Its Ugly!!!

[aneerkoinos]

66. You wanna know about ugly?

I just saw a document about Faux-TV (including O'Reilly and the anti war son of a 9/11 victim "chat") on a Finnish network.

When will you people realize that it's not Bush but corporate propaganda machine that is your worst enemy, enemy so lethal that I have become convinced that ANY MEANS of action against that institution is justified. They made American people so scared with their lies that they accepted the war, how about letting them taste their own medicine...?

[4MoreYearsOfHell]

67. Agree...media brainwashing is a fact that

we have lived with since Reagan did away with the fairness doctrine...

We are truly livin in troubled times...

Having said that, I must concur with my fellow patriots above,

FUCK YOU JOE BIDEN - Have you forgotten for whom you speak?

[SoCalDem]

70. Four years ago, Europe sympathized with the US for being stuck with *,

They wept with us and offered help on 9/11/01, and after they were rebuffed by *², they still liked "US"..but hated HIM. The were "sure" we would toss him out in 04..Now they are not too sure about US either.. They STILL hate *², and now "we" are on their list too, because we did not do what was necessary to boot his ass OUT..
To the rest of the world this can only mean one of TWO things:

1. We actually LIKE the asshole
2. We were not smart enough or cunning enough to defeat him..

Either way, we look stupid to the rest of the world..

[NYC]

73. We also look stupid to me.

With or without Diebold voting machines, something should have been done.

We are screwed.

[Behind the Aegis]

69. message to Biden

Keep spouting that message and you will soon be without a job!

I don't think this a "hate-fest" like poster 1 suggested would happen. I think what has happened here is Democrats are sick and tired of hearing the Democrat leaders SELL OUT! I, personally, am sick of hearing RIGHT-WING speak come out of the mouths of Democrats!

We need to let the Democrat leaders in Washington know that they are there to REPRESENT US! NOT try to represent the other side!!! Compromise doesn't mean surrender!!!

[Democat]

71. There will be a lot more Daschle's before things really get better

A lot of shitty Democrats are going to have to fall before we rise again.

[Stockholm]

74. In our interest? Get over it?

Ok,

Don´t expect any progress on trade issues within the next four years,

Don´t expect European support on foreign affairs matters such as Iran, Iraq or China which frankly are not in our best interest.

Expect Old Europe to make domestic political points on the expense of the US on issues such as social security, democracy, human rights, macro economics etc.

And Mr. Biden, we did not elect the idiot in the first place (did the US?), we have nothing to get over - it is you who will have the benefit to first hand enjoy his policies the next four years. Get over that.

[tedzbear]

75. And I suppose he means his constituents too?

He sounds like all the other Demo Dinos who want their party to roll over and wait for the chimp to scratch their stomachs.

[NurseLefty]

76. NurseLefty to Biden: Eat poop!

What was I thinking when I thought you were one of the smart Dems? No, rather, you have the same bull-in-a-china shop diplomacy as the chimp in the White House whose arse you smooch.

Hey, can someone wake me up when this nightmare is over?!

[sweetheart]

77. Not "OUR" president...

He's not our president... he's a felon and a war criminal... and there
is nothing to get over.

The diplomacy biden wants will simply be stonewalling the imperialists
as much as possible, as bush has crossed the line, and that the
american "s"election system does not punish criminals, don't expect that
crap to fly once you leave US borders. When the mafia don's think
themselves above the law and declare themselves kings, extrajudicial
means are used to cap them. As well, this mafia crime of the GOP must
be viewed similarly.

Ha... biden is just a hater and a fool... requiring his neck stretched
for treason in supporting the war crimes and the war criminal.

[Kinkistyle]

78. Will ya just submit to the Empire already.

Just get over it, ok? I mean, whats done is done, you might as well stop acting all self-righteous and moral and start thinking about how to get a piece of the sweet action.

[Skittles]

79. F*** YOU BIDEN

I WILL NEVER GET OVER THE THEFT OF DEMOCRACY, THE RISE OF FASCISM IN AMERICA AND IT DISTURBS ME THAT EUROPE IS APPARENTLY MORE CONCERNED THAN YOU ARE YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT.

[mutius]

86. you said it

bush stoled our country, and in four years there will be nothing but the neo-cons.

[TyeDye75]

82. Europe to Biden

Until you start doing your job

keep your stupid mouth shut asshole

[Walt Starr]

83. Can't we get SOMEBODY to run against this dumbass in a primary?

Biden needs to go!

[FreeStateDemocrat]

85. He’s just declaring interest in the repuke presidential nomination in 2008

[leesa]

87. What gall! FU Biden! The ahole threatens all of them and they should

"get over it". This creep has to go.

[plasticsundance]

88. biden's arrogant hubris is his undoing

He's frustrated, and he's dangerous. He's a hawk through and through and an all too obvious snake tongue. If this man runs in 2008, I think it is our job to make sure he doesn't stay in contention.

He's got his shorts in a wad because during the run up to the Iraq war, he and Lugar ran the committee that discussed the possible outcome of invading Iraq.

During the course of questioning, biden thought it was possible to get Russia on board with the invasion, because Iraq owed Russia money and the invasion would help get that money back. He literally sat there before the committee and had the audacity to promote a "cut up the pie" proposal.

Fuck you, joey biden. You were burned, and you're still getting your ass kicked on the world stage. You get over it. You're in way over your head, and your back slapping self importance ain't gonna bail you out of this blunder in the form of the current Administration. Mere words ain't gonna change reality either, and Condi Rice is a train wreck waiting to happen to this once great nation. Then what words will you use to defend the changing concept of what is in our national interests?

[SmartBomb]

91. Washington is brimming with fools and tools

Biden is both.
