Edited on Thu Mar-30-06 08:13 PM by KoKo01
Right who have a problem with (compromise) is what I'm assuming he meant.

IOW's Biden told Tweety...Don't worry about the 20% on the left or Right for Policy.

Now...when Biden puts ME in league with the RIGHT WING REPUG THUGS...I do get :grr:

Anyone else hear Biden DISS the Dem Grassroots Activists on Matthews?

It was a real turn off to me who walked the streets for Kerry who wasn't even my choice candidate...but I wanted him to win.

So long...so sorry to know ya guys...is what I heard Biden say as he "flipped me the bird." :shrug;

1. I had it on, but didn't even pay attention. It was like a drone in the
background.

3. Was he speaking in general or in reference to the immigration bill?
Because if he thinks that only the fringes are opposed to the immigration bill he's clueless.

9. I hate to use that word about anyone...but after tonight seeing him chum
it up with Matthews as if they were on equal thinking terms...it made me want to :puke:

I want to accept Biden...I've tried to think he's a centrist and i shouldn't freak out at what he always says...how he cuts of so many Dems who tried to get the vote out and yet...he always seems to be "pandering" on the Sunday Talking Head Shows...on Tweety. The hair transplants and the fake white toothed smile he flashed at Tweety were revolting.

I just don't feel I can trust him. I'm more at revulsion than hate...but if he disses me and my Dem beliefs one more time...I might cross over to where you are...

16. So many of the Beltway Dems are in love with the DC media axis
of the Post, Russert, Matthews etc - just completely unaware of how buying into the skewed (to the right) conventional wisdom of DC will leave them perpetually in the minority.

Classis case of someone who's been in DC way too long.

6. Really skewed political thinking
and in public no less. Why reveal your disdain so publicly for the gas that drives the grassroots engine? The GOP only exists because of theirs and their disdain slips out in e-mails extricated by subpoenas.

This is the constant expectation that the amorphous sensible middle will just waltz over to the Dems with a blank check on agenda and expectations. The means of campaigning will likewise be torpid, traditional going through the motions, short on ideals, long on bland image.

This is not GOP Lite it is Political Lite. IF you are going to classically position yourself in the center this is not the way to do it. Any hint of equality between perceived "left" and "right" damns a quarter of the sensible people in the nation to the lunatic fringe? is he again going to be settling for the Undecideds, the magic 2% in the polarized America Biden is enabling that dooms any effort to overcome even modest election fraud?

Who actually are the most capable politicians in our party anyway, minus other virtues or vices? Our safest seats appear to couch the most naive presumptions.

10. lol's! Thanks for the humor on this. Maybe it's a better way to look at
Biden...giving him laughs instead of worrying about what he says...

thanks for the "perspective."

12. Gee, "Hollywood" Joe Biden on TV again
That guy spends 95% of his time on TV as a guest Senator and 5% of his time as a real Senator. Seriously, somebody needs to total up his hours on TV. The guy is like the Paris Hilton of the Senate.

13. We are NOT the mirror image of rw thugs
And any fupid stuck who implies that we are or disregards us as such does not deserve our vote.

The rw "grassroots" is spoon fed what to believe through gop mass e-mail, their churches that are on the gop payroll, and their hate radio. The gop may at times try to distance themselves from their "base", but that "base" is truly their own creation--like OBL & Saddam. When it serves their purpose they pump up the hate within their base--Terri Schiavo, gay marriage, war on x-mas etc.--then they run away from them to appeal to their more sane voters (but how sane can it really be to support what these creeps are doing to the country?).

We are individuals who do not speak with a singular voice, and to be sure we think independently. We are mostly motivated by what we remember liberalism to be/stand for, and we have to petition our elected officials on a regular basis to represent us, with occasional success.


Biden, once again, shows why he will never get my vote for dog catcher let alone any higher elected office.

15. Clueless Biden
Unable to discern that the extreme right is SETTING policy RIGHT NOW!

The time to "get along" is long gone.

Either fight or get the fuck out of the way.
