Biden's opinion piece in today's WSJ
Republicans and Our Enemies http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121150000249615875.html?mod=opinion_main_commentaries

Tit-for-tat re Lieberman's piece from a couple of days ago

The worst nightmare for a regime that thrives on tension with America is an America ready, willing and able to engage. Since when has talking removed the word "no" from our vocabulary?

It's amazing how little faith George Bush, Joe Lieberman and John McCain have in themselves – and in America.


He may not have officially endorsed, but Biden has been an excellent defender and counter-puncher recently.

7. Agree. but
1 - he may be reluctant to give up his very powerful Senate position, especially since 2 - he would probably have to be in a Cheney-like position (please pardon the analogy), since he is too old to aim at the presidency in 2016. On the other hand, if God forbid anything were to happen to BO, his would be among the safest hands and minds to have at the helm.

11. Isn't he the one Obama people have been touting?
The white man who was so thoughtful of Anita Hill?

Yeah, that's the perfect choice for the Obama crowd.

12. Boy are you quick to judge.
1. I have not heard the Obama people "touting" Biden.

2. Biden was a jerk to Anita Hill.

3. He would be a damn good choice compared to DLC Hillary.

14. "DLC Hillary."
And Obama's votes differ from the DLC positions by what percentage? And Biden's? I'm sure you have this at your fingertips and I'd like to know.

15. LOL! How about you do your own research if you are so curious.
I've already posted all I need to say about Hillary's ties to the DLC, the Left Arm of PNAC.

Use your search function.

"Mr. Bush has turned a small number of radical groups that hate America into a 10-foot tall existential monster that dictates every move we make."
