Got it......and I agree.

Shouldn't be hard to find the debate transcript. Give it a whirl and then notice the italicized portion in the linked article is the same from the transcript.

Is it opinion to say that biden got the Article of the Constitution WRONG? NO

Is it opinion that he didn't know the function of the VP? NO

Based on HIS words and what is actually in the Constitution, he got it ALL wrong.

That's not opinion, that's Fact.

If you scroll down, he got a lot more than that wrong.

Except, there are no charges, evidence, trial or judgment.

Wishful thinking that will NEVER, EVER, EVER happen.

I guess you haven't read his remarks in the debate either, else you would know he's nothing but a clueless blowhard.

You do know McCain respects him as a friend and formidable opponent right?

Other than a gaffe in the VP debate...( which let's face it, at least he was answering the moderator's questions.....) I would still like to get a concrete idea of why you or anyone else consider him incompetent. Other than of course him being an "icky" Democrat.

The challenge here is you have to provide facts. Not "hearsay"or "personal opinion".

Can you or anybody do that.

I did not mean for you to perceive that I bit your head off. My apologies to you if that is how you read my response.

Not bad for a state you call 'pissant' and full of 'really dumb voters'
Just yanking your chain. It appears to be easily yankable.

I guess to some any state that isn't full of lower middle class republicans voting against their own economic interest because they are scared of boys kissing is full of 'really dumb voters.'
Whatever that means. Connecticut is hardly a case study in political perspicacity, seeing how Joe Lieberman tied them in knots and left the Dems twisting in mpoent rage a few years after they nominated him for veep, and Delaware is owned by the DuPonts, purveyors of chemical warfare among other gifts to humanity. But do go on.

On Biden: He's probably the most knowledgeable and gifted VP's we've had in the area of foreign policy. He participates in the administration to a much larger degree than most previous vice presidents and provides excellent counsel to the president and participates in decision making.
If he's so knowledgeable, why are we still in Iraq, escalating Vietnam II in Afghanistan, and running Gitmo? Seems to me Joe's participation is about equal to Hubert Humphrey's...

Quote:
He actually was my first choice for president. I think anyone who bothered to learn about him instead of just reading the media sound bites would agree... I'm afraid some just dislike any politician who's not a right wing ideologue carrying the water of the Christian right.
So you prefer left-wing idealogues carrying the water of the SEIU and the military-industrial complex. Suit yourself. It's all academic, anyway. In 2012, Joe is history and Hillary is anointed Big O's successor....

He seems loathe to oppose the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, though.

Guess that makes him a humanitarian.
