Biden jabs GOP for offering 'no answer' to voters on the economy
By Michael O'Brien - 09/01/10 08:25 AM ET


Vice President Joe Biden jabbed Republicans on Wednesday, accusing the GOP of offering "no answer" to voters' concerns about the economy.

Biden needled Republicans for blocking a small-business bill in the Senate, which he, like President Obama earlier this week, said was a key part of bringing the U.S. out of its economic doldrums.

The vice president tied the GOP's opposition in the Senate to the $30 billion package to remarks made earlier this summer by Rep. Pete Sessions (Texas), the chairman of House Republicans' campaign committee, who said in a highly publicized comment that the GOP would return to some of the same policies they'd pursued when they were last in power if voters give Republicans control of Congress again this fall.

"You know, Pete Sessions, the congressman who is in charge of the reelection efforts in the House, said that 'When we take control — if we take control — we're going to go back to the same exact agenda we had before,' " Biden said on ABC. "That's the agenda that drove us into a deep recession. That is no answer."

5. Every single Dem needs to be repeating this, loud and clear, and constantly.

The GOP has no answers, they've submitted no plans, other than do what they were doing before, which led to this mess. Plus, joy of joys, they want to INVESTIGATE OBAMA!

Yes, the very same people who spent hundreds of millions investigating Clinton want a repeat performance with Obama. And let's not forget that Newt Gingrich was cheating on his cancer-stricken wife with a whore while he was going after Clinton for having an affair!

The GOP has already gone on record as stating they are going to use the power of subpoena in the House, if they win back the majority. So, the same guys and gals that didn't bat an eye while one of their own, George W. Bush, was starting wars based on lies, outing covert CIA agents, spying on Americans illegally, and wiping his dirty butt with the Constitution, now wants to start doing their jobs.

And let's not mince words here, they're doing this because they are racists, and they can't stand having a black man in the White House! And they are offering up these investigations as incentives to their bigoted right wing conservatives to get out the vote in November!

Throw the raw bloody meat into the shark reservoir, guys! The GOP is about to put on a show!!
