4. I would like to know how
"Biden Urges Intelligence Committee to Open Thorough Investigation into NSA Warrantless Wiretapping Program" translates into "NeoCon Apologist".

3. Biden is a lazy ass dandy
Dresses well, and never lifts a finger to change a damn thing. OF course after it being dressed it's nice frilly propaganda the people don't even know what it means. This is the guy whom I will never fucking forget saying in the hearings about Rice being SOS-" I hope she's not a neo-con." "I hope they aren't planning to go to war with Iran." Oh la de la de la. Time for my next closeup on Hardball..gotta go.

7. LOL
The word "dandy" is tragically underused.

22. Spelling nazis on board: It's stupefying, not stupifying.
If you're gonna discover a word, discover it right.

14. Said his constituents
don't care if they're spied on. They just want to know how many al Quida have been arrested and prosecuted. What horse apples. He's as helpful to our cause as Mehlman.

I can see his constituents looking at the screen and saying :wow: and :puke:

20. those were his exact words
"People don't care if they are spyed on the come up to me at the (A&P whatever) and say have you got those alQueda yet?"

I almost flipped out. He was slobbering all over Tweety, who also needs to know that we do in fact care.

http://biden.senate.gov/ Let him know. I hope this gets a lot of screen time and response, because if we don't let them know, they'll think their myopic world view is true.

28. i gotta see what he said and put in context. i just watched another
video of biden in a biden bashing thread, and i thought the bashing was bullshit. the few times i have watched the news and biden is on (i have turned news off) i have listened to the man and here it totally distorted on this site.

the man was opposed to nsa spying.

30. Not what he said -
Edited on Fri Feb-17-06 12:41 AM by pirhana
If you are talking about Hardball.

He said that we want them to spy on terrorists.
That they need to get a warrant.
If they are having a problem with FISA, then the shoudl come to Congress and tell
us what they need. He was actually making a good case against this administration...

If you are talking about his interview with tweety.

edit -typo

31. Too many DUers "support ' troll threads without reading links
Joe Biden, on his site and in his interviews,is consistently demanding an investigation with full disclosure. Why are so many dissing this man without bothering to read his site link or demanding to see the supposed link wherein he says what the thread poster claims. READ people, don't just react to the "headline". Thank you pirhana for trying to guess at what BareNakedLiberal was referring to, because I sure can't find anywhere that Joe Biden said anything even close to what BNL in claiming.

34. In that same interview,
Matthews addressed the opposition to the war being labeled as out of the mainstream. In other words, he wondered why lefties are considered to be anti-American wackos. I thought that was interesting since he has been the one to use wacko fairly regularly. But it seemed like he might be making an effort to correct that mislabeling. He mentioned polls that showed the majority of Americans did not approve of the war or the way the war has progressed or something to that effect.

Sen. Biden replied that it was because of the bully pulpit of this administration repeating that assertion on a daily basis.
