How is this guy in the Senate, let alone working in any institution that is supposed to be respected at all. First, let us recall this little racist slur about Indian Americans:
Then early during his "campaign" for the presidency he talked about Barack Obama. Racist, pure and simple. Here's the quote:
"I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy," Biden said. "I mean, that's a storybook, man."
Notice later in the article the media goes to bat for him, accepting his half-assed apology and not making much of a fuss about it. In fact, unless you're engaged in politics pretty heavily this is probably pretty new to you. Imagine if a Republican had said that, his career would be over. Remember George Allen's infamous "Macaca" quote?
Two strikes and two passes. Now today he comes out of left field (literally) and says that Iowa's education system is better than D.C.'s mainly because there is less African-Americans there. Think you read that wrong? Here's Biden's own words:
After a lengthy critique of Bush administration education policies, Biden attempted to explain why some schools perform better than others -- in Iowa, for instance, compared with the District. "There's less than 1 percent of the population of Iowa that is African American. There is probably less than 4 or 5 percent that are minorities. What is in Washington? So look, it goes back to what you start off with, what you're dealing with," Biden said.
Where's the uproar here? Where's the media? Where's Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson? The left is race baiters pure and simple and they don't care what the "progressive" left says or does so long as they are on board the left's agenda. Hell, Robert Byrd (D-WV) was a former KKK leader and he's one of the most influential Democrats in the Senate. Biden is a racist, but he advances the political sway of the socialist left in our Congress and he's getting a free pass on being an out-in-the-open racist simply because he brings in money to people like Sharpton, Clinton, et al. No outrage since this damages their bottom line.
Oh yea, here is the headline for this article:
"Biden Stumbles in Interview"
If President Bush had said this, do you have any idea what that headline would have read? They call such open racism a "stumble"? What the hell is wrong with the Left?

Biden has had a 100% voting record with the NAACP for the past several years. He got involved with politics because of civil rights back in the '60s. Rep. Fletcher Smith, the former Richardson SC co-chair who now endorses Biden, is African American. And frankly, it's a FACT that minorities tend to be a socio-economic disadvantage, and thus have lower quality schools. So for the love of God, don't buy into this distorted MSM garbage. Surely you're smarter than that, Stephen.
A comment on cnn.com:
"I work for a public school in Southeast DC. Our students are 99% black and 1% latino. Joe's views on education are the most well-informed in the whole race. How many of you even know what Cledwama's Education plan is? Biden's is comprehensive and will improve the American public school system. I am constantly amazed by people's zealotry to cry racism. Joe Biden has a 100% NAACP rating, and his involvement with the Civil Rights movement in his 20s was instrumental in his decision to enter politics, and for the past 4 decades he has been a champion of civil rights. Where are you bandwagon race-card players hiding whenever Joe passes a Senate resolution that could save thousands of lives in Iraq, or when he passes the Violence Against Women act?
The problems facing our decrepit education system in this country are real and very complex. And they will require real and complex solutions, not cosmetic ones.
If we continue to ignore what's staring us right in the face we'll never fix education in this country."
Nor was the Obama quote racist in the slightest. By "clean," he meant Obama is politically clean, and that's true - every major African American candidate for President in the past has been tinged by scandal. Not Obama. How is pointing out that Obama is not corrupt a racist statement?
2005-2006 Senator Biden supported the interests of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People 100 percent in 2005-2006.
2005 Senator Biden supported the interests of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People 100 percent in 2005.
2003-2004 Senator Biden supported the interests of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People 100 percent in 2003-2004.
2001-2002 Senator Biden supported the interests of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People 97 percent in 2001-2002.
2001 Senator Biden supported the interests of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People 100 percent in 2001.
Please excuse my calling you "Stephen" in the post above. I copied it from another post I made and didn't catch all the direct names, I guess. Apologies.
Biden is a racist who votes in favor of a pc agenda to conceal his racism. No contradiction in that.
He also authored the Violence Against Women Act, which deprives innocent men of due process and encourages false allegations.
