Who else thinks that Biden was Obama insurance policy?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vice President Biden acknowledged using a "poor choice of words" after referring to bankers that exploit U.S. troops as "Shylocks."
The vice president used the term during a talk Tuesday to a nonprofit that provides legal aid to those in need. But the term is considered by some to be an anti-Semitic term for Jews, and the head of the Anti-Defamation League put out a statement criticizing Biden.
"Shylock represents the medieval stereotype about Jews and remains an offensive characterization to this day. The Vice President should have been more careful," Abraham Foxman said, while still calling Biden friendly to the Jewish community
Biden is a career politician so he should know how to speak to an audience. He is showing his true colors every time he opens his mouth. Biden was chosen to make Obama look good.
Joe Biden is a squatter Congress Critter from a State with a little over 900,000 people ..... TOTAL
He ran for President the first time in 1988 and then again in 2008 -- he never made it out of the primaries.
A perfect VP for Obama. He says what he thinks - if people don't like it. TT
Seems Biden makes a habit of using a poor choice of words. Goes to show you why politicians get an earned reputation of never learning from their past mistakes.

I bet even Uncle Joe didn't know the origin on the word until his staffers looked it up.
