Clearly, he doesn't know what he is saying. It's like somebody else is speaking through him.

Prov 22:7 The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender.

Indeed, if we raise our focus just a bit higher to a global plane, China is now "the rich" and we are the "borrower" and "slave".

They could call the loan any time they feel like it, and we're done.

Same is true of those on government subsidies (fully dependent on the government). Once Obama gets you settled into the dependent role and you're willing to be comfortable there, you're a slave. No wonder he's expanding the food stamp program, raising the poverty level, and wants to cut a few more surplus checks. Redistribution is the key word in his program; he's barely begun and he needs the second term to fully implement it.

If you're a success, you didn't get there through your own efforts and you're obligated to share the fruits of your labors with those who labored less (or not at all).

He wants us to believe he's going after the uber-wealthy. He's really after the middle class and he'll sneak in the back door while we're not looking.

They listen just to get the chuckle of the day. There's nothing substantive in what Biden says.

So you're saying it's all racial. How shallow. About as shallow as Biden.

As for the vote...well, have you seen the empty stands that Biden and Obama are preaching to these days?

Looks like a lot of people are awake and elsewhere, no longer sharing Obama's dreams (I prefer to call them nightmares).

The tide is turning.

I might agree with that idea.

I had my fill of Biden when he worked under Bill Clinton. i might suppose that unless a person was also a hunter/ gun collector / and etc that most people had never heard of of that FOOL Biden back then.

Biden wrote the Clinton Gun Ban which thankfully has a sunset date.

Biden simply proved what a useless fool he was at the instant the Bill was passed, and did he ever whine when the same bill sunset.

He should have been arrested and tried for Treason back then, and I can see he is still trying to be now.. This time as a White Racist...

Yesterday I learned what a hair plug is, and just wonder about while he is getting all plugged up , that maybe he should go for a few nazi swastikas on his forehead, It seems fitting to me.

Next thing ya know Biden will be wearing a tan suit and knee high jack boots....

Default Obama campaign spokesman: We have no objection to Biden’s “chains” comment

A glorious return to the spotlight for Stephanie Cutter, who canceled her weekend appearances on national news shows after she got caught lying about Team O’s last big smear. The defense here, as always when someone in Obamaland says something stupid and unhelpful, is that Biden’s being taken out of context.

Watch the whole clip, she says, and it’s clear that he’s talking about Wall Street deregulation, not slavery. Which is super, but it doesn’t remotely explain the sudden change in accent and diction. And no one ever argued the opposite. If he wanted to make a point about deregulation, however hysterical and unfair, he could have said, “They want to put you in chains.” He didn’t.

I think Biden laid it on even thicker than that: To my ear, it sounds like he says “they,” not “they’re,” at the start of the money line. How come? Does he typically lapse into southern vernacular, replete with “y’alls,” when he’s in Virginia or discussing financial deregulation? Or is this exactly what it looks like, a racial smear aimed at Romney that Biden, in his immaculate idiocy, felt he needed to deliver in a “black accent” just in case anyone missed the barely-veiled double meaning?

Other prominent Democrats, Hillary Clinton and Al Gore most notably, have also experienced miraculous metamorphoses in their speech patterns in front of black audiences. (Hillary’s been especially sleazy with her choice of racial metaphors at times too, which is why it was so enjoyable to watch Team O and its surrogates lob charges of racism at her during the primaries four years ago.) But this is the first time I can recall one of them changing their accent to punctuate a racial dig at the opposition. Makes sense, though: Per Jim Geraghty’s post yesterday, they’re in a mad scramble right now to destroy Paul Ryan’s Boy Scout image and frame him as something evil. A slavery metaphor aimed squarely at black listeners shows how low they're willing to go.

Here’s Cutter rubber-stamping what he said. Why shouldn’t she? The campaign almost certainly put him up to it.

Hence, exactly why Romney came out yesterday and said what he did, as he should have. Obama said in the past he wouldnt run a negative, dirty campaign, but he's done just that this year.
