Approve of Biden? You need to do some research. Even the dems don't want him. He is considered a political liability That is why he is always in the background. And every time he shows his face he embarrasses the administration.

And now with youtube etc there are going to be more and more "Biden Blunders" available for comic relief. lol

And Biden's personality represents that region perfectly. I'm not from that area, but I get it, and I like it.

I guess most Americans are unaware (or intolerant of) the variety of people and subcultures we have in this country.

All I know is I seldom see any whining about Biden except for when he makes an old school east coast remark. If that's their only gripe with him, I have to believe he's doing a good job. I just yearn for the day when he says "Why you gotta be busting my balls?"

My rant? I merely pointed out the hypocrisy of people who judge Biden for insulting/mocking a guy by insulting/mocking Biden. This hardly qualifies as a rant.

Be my guest and do so, but it doesn't change the fact that most rightwingers in this thread wrote very hypocritical posts.

No need to be condescending, you can argue your point without having to use such means.

Here we go again. You don't seem to understand that while claiming Biden was rude, you do so by insulting him/being rude yourself. Double standards, anyone?

Is this the most arrogant administration you've ever seen??? I mean ....really. This is nuts!

CK2.

Biden was joking. Compared to the previous administration that sent our American Troops over to die for nothing in Iraq. Biden is a Teddy Bear.

How can anyone watch that video and think the custard shop owner was offended in any way, shape or form? He even said he enjoyed the banter with Biden and he was grinning from ear to ear.
