Sorry people but Joe Biden's a tool...
Edited on Thu Jul-29-04 07:00 PM by devilgrrl
I'm not enjoying his speech at all - repug-lite. "I don't question the motives of this administration but I do question its judgement"... what????

5. Um, I don't think so
:mad:

Joe Biden has a conservative rating around 8% which is one of the lowest in the senate. He never has been nor never will be a member of the DNC (the other guy carper is and is much more conservative than Biden).

4. When you badmouth Joe, you're badmouthine me
I'm proud to have him my senator and loved his comment:

'You can't be a leader if no one if following'

He's a very eloquent speaker and just an all around great, but yes flawed, guy. I've met him and his sons and they're all incredibly nice. I think his son Beau is working to someday replace dad in the senate and probably no one can beat him.

:loveya: Joe B.

Proud Delawarean!

11. Lynne I was wondering why so many dont like him
He went after the christian right in that speech which I liked. He's not my favorite dem in the senate but I think he did a decent job.
