Biden to GOP: "Forgive me if I laugh in your face"

[Enrique]

http://www.bostonherald.com/news/politics/view.bg?articleid=1292717

“How can Perry or the Republican Party talk with a straight face about fiscal responsibility? Give me a break,” Biden said. “Next time a Republican talks to you about fiscal responsibility, tell them, ‘Forgive me if I laugh in your face.’ It’s bizarre. It’s bizarre. They have no credibility.”

[Blue Owl]

1. Joe, be sure to eat lots of garlic

and then get right up in their grill when you laugh at them.

I know I will!

:rofl:

[ladywnch]

54. nice touch! :-) n/t

[Clio the Leo]

2. Is that man not AWESOME!? nt

[Jennicut]

8. He is the awesomest.

If only all Dems told it like it is.

[joe black]

48. I doubt Anita Hill thinks so.

Why you ask, because he blocked witnesses for Anita ( women who were harassed like she was) during the Thomas brouhaha. I don't like him so much for that.

[BeFree]

50. he made it to VP, didn't he?

You don't get to be VP by not following orders. First rule: Toe the line.

[Bitwit1234]

3. Yes folks we do have some Democratic politicians who tell it like it is

[BeFree]

4. No Joe, bad Joe

Compromise, Joe. Be nice or they'll stomp more heads, Joe.

[great white snark]

5. Good Joe!

Candor good, Cantor bad.

[BeFree]

6. Now look

You might make cantor mad. Madder. Maddest. Be careful, that little weenie might pee himself.

[wysimdnwyg]

44. Look out!

Incoming DUzy!

[daleanime]

14. Oh my.....

best 4 word snark ever!:rofl:

[Kadie]

24. ROFL!

:rofl:

[11 Bravo]

7. I loves me some Joe Biden!

[Phx_Dem]

9. Tell it like it is, Joe! You rock!.

[JNelson6563]

10. Rock on Joe!

:toast:

[Inchworm]

11. Go Joe!

I've said recently that I couldn't keep from laughing out loud if I were a moderator in many of these debates.

Thanks Joe, for saying what I was thinking :)

:yourock:

[Lucy Goosey]

12. I have always had such a soft spot for him...

...he's not perfect, but when he's right, he's really right. And funny too!

Seriously, every Dem should be out there saying "Republicans have no credibility on issues of fiscal responsibility!" When the popular narrative is wrong, people should be out saying it's wrong, instead of just conceding the issue to the other side.

[Enthusiast]

32. Thank you, Lucy Goosey.

I have never heard a Democrat on a TV program pointing out Republican hypocrisy on the fiscal issue. By doing this they as much as admit it is true.

[angee_is_mad]

13. Ride or Die Joe

If no one else is going to have the POTUS back it will be Joe! Give'em Hell Joseph!

[jefferson_dem]

15. Yowza... Hahahahah...

Get 'em Joe!

[K8-EEE]

16. HA!!! love joe!!! NT

[Shrader]

17. Good one!

[jillan]

18. I'm in love with our VP - what more can I say?

[marlakay]

19. i know i get mad when they want someone else nt

[Skittles]

20. I had that reaction when I heard a Rick Perry ad on my car radio

"fiscal responsibility"? IT IS TIME DEMOCRATS SHUT DOWN THAT RIDICULOUS REPUKE TALKING POINT

[BeyondGeography]

21. The deficit was built by Republicans

Not that it matters to most white male voters.

[mikekohr]

22. $9.2 TRILLION TO BE EXACT, here's the graph

THE LAST 3 REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS HAVE ACCOUNTED FOR NEARLY 100% OF OUR INCREASE IN THE NATIONAL DEBT SINCE 1981


Every President, from Truman to Carter, steadily paid down the staggering debt that was run up in our fight against Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. That pattern came to a screeching halt with Reagan/Bush and Bush. Clinton’s fiscal policy was a brief respite during this orgy of deficit spending.

Clinton balanced 5 budgets, which is 5 times as many balanced budgets as the last 5 Republican presidents combined.


President Obama, like President Clinton, inherited a sea of red ink and a recession from his predecessor. He, like President Clinton, recognizes the importance of getting America back to work and then getting our fiscal house in order.

49. They all need to buy new shoes every four years to cover the bullet holes.

[DinahMoeHum]

23. I'd prefer that he FART in their face. . .but as he's the VPOTUS

decorum prohibits that.

:evilgrin:

[Lasher]

35. Decorum didn't stop Lord Vader.

I vote for the fart in their faces.

[brewens]

52. You "crop dust" a group af Republicans if you get the chance.

Just nonchalantly walk by, slowly farting leaving a noxious cloud in your wake. They will invariably start pointing fingers at each other as you watch from a safe distance.

[defendandprotect]

25. Reagan quadrupled the deficit .... and W doubled it again .... !!!

Bush wars still bankrupting our Treasury!!!

End them now, Obama!!

[Enthusiast]

34. "End them now, Obama!!"

Right on!

The GOP has plans for another little foreign entanglement in Iran. Of this I have no doubts.

[Lasher]

38. No reason to doubt that.

This plan was literally spelled out by PNAC before GWB assumed the presidency.

[obxhead]

47. Of course. Why do you think we're fighting in the 2 neighboring countries?

[defendandprotect]

51. ABSOLUTELY agree with you ... Iran is on the agenda. ... and sadly....

maybe even for Obama --

which is why I would love to see a more liberal/democratic candidate in 2012!!!



PS: Have I been missing your posts -- or have you been here less?

:)

[Enthusiast]

62. We had a death in the family

and I have several health issues to cope with. It should be all better now, I hope. Thank you.

[Lasher]

36. Bush wars and the Bush tax cuts

The tax cuts actually cost more than the wars.

[flamingdem]

26. Joe is AWESOME!! nt

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

27. You tell 'em Joe

:fistbump:

[Hekate]

28. Joe Biden is Teh Awesome. You heard it here.

:kick:

[Ken Burch]

29. You almost wish Biden had gone into the "French Taunter" routine.

"Perry's mother was a hamster, and his father smells of elderberry"!

[madmax]

30. I love my Vice-President! nt

[Enthusiast]

31. That is for damn sure! K&R nt

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

33. It's driving me fucking crazy! The Dems, including Obama AND Biden, are not running on PAYGO vote!

They are not telling people that it was the Repukes who voted against PAYGO. They also voted against the Commission for "Fiscal Responsibility," or whatever the hell the name is...

I'm sorry, Joe. I love you, but the Dems have totally failed on message. It is the Republicans who are responsible for this mess. And they want to add to the deficit with their filthy tax cuts for the wealthy. AND most important of all--they voted against PAYGO!!!

[indimuse]

37. YES!

That's how you respond to these GOP THIEVES!! I'm SO. SO tired of the * Niceties*!! Just tell it like IT IS!!

knr!

[mommalegga]

39. So I guess we dont have to worry

about a new Repub Congress trying to cut spending?

Wew thats a relief!

Truth be told NEITHER party has ANY credibility on "fiscal responsibility"

But as the disclaimer goes in investing, "Past performance does not guarentee future results"

I would bet the a new Repub Congress will propose MASSIVE spending cuts becasue they were thrown out in 2006 in part because they embraced defeceit spending like no ones business, so they are going to try, at least initially, to prove they have "learned their lesson" The tea baggers will make sure of it.

Just trying to be objective and "tell it like it is"...

[Hubert Flottz]

40. The party of the no bid contract is nothing about fiscal responsibility

[hamsterjill]

41. Joe Knows Best

Give 'em hell, Joe! I like the spunk and wish more Democrats would follow your lead.

[lunatica]

42. What you said Joe

[TBF]

43. Now if he could just say that to bankers as well I'd give him a nod. nt

[laughingliberal]

45. K & R nt

[Mad_Dem_X]

46. Just when I start to be embarrassed about being from DE

Joe makes me proud again.

[Plucketeer]

53. Lovin' it!

:kick:

[harun]

55. Novak back in the day on Crossfire, after B*sh took office, when pressed hard on

how the Repukes were going to afford all this crazy crap, said in a sly smile "We're going to borrow it". No shit they borrowed, and GENERATIONS of our children are going to have to work to pay this back. When they say fiscal responsibility they mean social programs. They will borrow another 20 trillion to fund more wars if enough of them get elected.

[Duke Newcombe]

56. Joe the Biden is soooo Gangsta! n/t

[LatteLibertine]

57. It amazes me how many folks have "forgotten" what the GOP did with their majority

In addition, they haven't tried to disguise the fact that they will go back to business as usual if they win.

[Stellar]

58. LMAO at Biden !

:rofl:

[anachro1]

59. How is it that

Republicans seem to avoid fighting with Biden, but go after Obama with no limits?

[politicasista]

60. He was on fire this morning on

The Tom Joyner Morning Show. :applause:
