I wonder what the reaction from the Left would be if Dick Cheney had said these words "Obama is the FIRST articulate and clean african-american"
This is what I think the reaction would have been:
Impeachment
Death
Life Without Parole
Death To His Wife
Deportation
Death Again
Death By Hanging
Chain Drag Him Through Harlem
Kill Him Again
Hang His Bleeding Body On The Don Imus Ranch
Oh Jesus H Christ
Psst, shhhh, Biden is a democrat, "so he didn't mean it, ga, ga, goo, goo"

RW, In the immediate days that followed the "rape," it was reasonable for people to sympathize with the "victim." Didn't you? Don't most people form a quick view based on the first information? You can't call for people's heads, but you can certainly sympathize with the supposed victim. Most people do, and when it turns out the victim lied, people were disillusioned.
If only it was sympathy for the victim that people felt, and not anamosity, and determinations of guilt toward the white kids.

Yup, Iraq and George Bush!

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him." Leo Tolstoy, 1897
it's funny that Bushies love to declare Biden's meaning, or any Democrat who says something ambiguous, but then insist whenever dumbass Boy King says something stupid that "clearly, what he meant was..... "... whatever...
Biden and Obama are close, and have very similar views for America... Their rapport was palpable when they stood next to eachother at the debates...
Anyone pretending the "clean" comment was racial is a person trying a pathetic stretch to damage the only candidate who can stand up to and willfully and verbally abuse failed Bush policy and moronic neocon thinking ... Again, until Gore announces, Biden is the most viable candidate... Because he doesn't take and ***** from the right...
It's interesting that the complaint is that the Dems aren't tough enough and have no ideas, and here's a guy who's tough as nails and has ideas, and the righties wanna cry that he's too bombastic....
FYI, 3tobe4 despises George Bush just as much as you do.

why is it the defense from the left, or the right, is always to say the person making the point is somehow absolving the other side.
Bush IS a dope and the racist comments come from the right just as much as the left. That doesnt make what Biden said fine and dandy. Saying Obama is the FIRST articulate and clean african-american candidate was and is a idiotic statement. Im sure Shirley Chisolm, Jesse Jackson, Alan Keyes, and Al Sharpton consder themselves "articulate" and i would assume they took baths now and then. Do you think they were innarticulate and dirty?
And please dont go on a rant about the right. yes. yes .yes. we now about their racism. how about Biden's comments?
If you bring up the double standard that exists for both the left, and for people of color, you are quickly branded a racist by the (in)tolerant.

Sharpton just picked up a few thousand votes for Romney, America is getting sick of the "reverse racism" but not many dare to mention it, when Sharpton/Jessie get together with their gang of "sign carrying screaming racists" imagine how they must laugh at the "White Fools" that slobber all over them, imagine what they say about Pant Suit Hillary when she trys to "talk black", they put their heads in their hands and p!ss their pants laughing at her.
Why is there no outrage from the scumsucking liberal democrats when the Morman Church is ridiculed but they go nuts when a Conservative even mentions the word "MUSLIM".

he simply merged two sentences together that should have been seperated...
i don't think he meant he's the first clean African American
seperate it and it reads like this:
"I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American candidate. He is also articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy"
regardless, Biden also said that Obama is "probably the most exciting candidate that the Democratic or Republican parties have produced" in a long time. Biden said his remark about Obama being "clean" reflected his mother's expression: "Clean as a whistle, sharp as a tack."
"I really regret that some have taken totally out of context my use of the word 'clean' " Biden said.
Gannett also writes that Obama didn't take the comments personally and would not comment further, his Senate spokesman, Tommy Vietor, said in an e-mail response to a reporter's inquiry.

so Obama is the first "sharp as a tack" African -American running for President
Shirley Chisolm was a dope. Alan Keyes, a big dummy. Jesse Jackson too.
it doesnt get better.....
Point being, even with the apology, had a Republican said it their career would be over. You know it and I know it.
Why was it necessary for Biden to even say something like that?
"Hillary Clinton is the first articulate and sharp woman to run for President"?
he wouldnt have ever said that.
"Bill Clinton is the first articulate and sharp white man........Ronald Reagan is the first articulate and clean white man...."
im sorry but no matter how you slice it, its an idiotic and offensive comment.
and like ive said, i lean more to the Democratic Party, so im looking at this without an agenda. Ive always liked Biden, i just think he stepped in it, and there IS a double standard when liberals say offensive things.

amazing... and coy... you've completely changed the sentence...
Biden didn't say Obama was "the first articulate and clean african american candidate to run for president"... He said "the first mainstream african american CANDIDATE who is..." And yet you're re-fashioning the sentence, putting the adjective before the noun to underscore what you HOPE he meant to say...

Thats funny...Hardball covered it tonite. Hmm...how do you explain that? Liberal media bias is just slang for conservatives hating the fact that, in general, news reports the facts. They tend to hate the facts.
