September 25, 2008 - Loser of the Week - Biden His Time

This week’s LOSER OF THE WEEK is Joe Biden. Biden, the Democrat VP designate, was in Cincinnati on Wednesday. I wanted to go see him, but his “rally” was by “invitation only.” There’s democracy in action.

Since he was selected by Obama, it has been one gaffe after another. Here is what he said yesterday as reported by the Associated Press:

“Vice presidential candidate Joe Biden says today’s leaders should take a lesson from the history books and follow fellow Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt’s response to a financial crisis.

“When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened,’” Barack Obama’s running mate recently told the “CBS Evening News.”

Except, Republican Herbert Hoover was in office when the stock market crashed in October 1929. There also was no television at the time; TV wasn’t introduced to the public until a decade later, at the 1939 World’s Fair”

Sounds very familiar to Al Gore’s claim to have invented the Internet.

Imagine the uproar had Republican Sarah Palin had made the same remark about FDR. NICE DOUBLE STANDARD.

I believe the “October Surprise” will be that Obama will dump Biden. Biden has already said that Hillary Clinton would have been a better choice. They will convolute some health scare for Biden. It could be a phantom cancer, or a hair-plug infection, or just foot in mouth disease, it doesn’t matter. He has turned into an embarrassment and a drag on the ticket. Obama has a long history of throwing people under the bus.

Joe Biden, you are my LOSER OF THE WEEK.
