a JOE BIDEN pick me up
I thought maybe some of us here could use a quick pick me up. For those who haven't seen this, I hope it picks up your spirits.

Press Release

Iraq's President Talabani Expresses Support for Biden-Brownback Federalism Amendment


Washington, DC – Today, Senator Joseph R. Biden, Jr., Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, met with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani. President Talabani welcomed the Senate’s approval of the Biden-Brownback amendment last week supporting federalism in Iraq, on a bipartisan vote of 75-23. He expressed his strong belief that the amendment promotes the unity and territorial integrity of Iraq and is not, as some have mischaracterized it, a call for partition. He also emphasized that the amendment is completely consistent with the decision Iraqis have made to adopt a federal form of government in their Constitution.

In addition, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, speaking in Arabic on Tuesday to al-Iraqiyah Television, made the following remarks regarding the Biden-Brownback Federalism Amendment: “They said they welcomed federalism. If federalism is what they really meant, why not? Federalism, after all, is stipulated in the Constitution. We, too, talked about federalism as this is a constitutional issue.”

Senator Biden said, “I welcome President Talabani's support for the Biden-Brownback amendment, and also Prime Minster Maliki's comments. Some – both in the United States and Iraq – have tried to mischaracterize our amendment as calling for the partition of Iraq. It is nothing of the sort. It calls for keeping Iraq together by bringing to life the federal system enshrined in its constitution. A federal Iraq is a united Iraq and the best path to a political settlement that virtually everyone agrees is necessary if we are to leave Iraq without leaving chaos behind.”

4. How dare he be compared to the Kennedy's, FDR etc.
Has he issued an apology to Anita Hill for his appalling behaviour toward her, during the Thomas appointment hearings to SCOTUS? Has he apologized for his role in getting that jerk on our Supreme Court? He's too closely linked(and funded) by the banking industry. The guy's a shallow joke.

5. He didn't make that video! A Biden supporter did!
Edited on Thu Oct-04-07 08:33 AM by mrigirl
Biden has all of his own video clips HE released on his YouTube page- you can get there through JoeBiden.com Some of his supporters have made videos of their own- including this guy. Some are tacky and some are quite inspiring. Just remember that these video clips aren't coming from him unless it says it's sponsored by the Biden campaign - so quit being so judgemental. It's not him.
