Why did BIDEN vote for Condi?
I thought Joe was more stand-up than that. Dude has been slamming *'s sorry-ass Iraq policy for two years.

:wtf:

1. Because he supports her agenda - PNAC.
Throw him overboard.

13. This may be the only letter he is a signatory.
It doesn't make him a "core PNAC'er".

I would be more worried if he had signed anything before 9/11.

16. So one act of treason is acceptable, as long as he doesn't make a habit?
Don't want to make it sound like I'm calling YOU out. I'm calling Joe out. And McCain and Madeline Albright as well. We know now who the PNAC'ers are and what their agenda is. There is no justified collaboration with these treasonous shitbags. None.

3. Parliamentary Courtesy
Which makes for a convenient out for not doing something controversial.

5. He whines a lot about Bush*
and its fun to watch him whine.

But, when it comes right down to it, he supports him every single fucking time.

10. I guess it is a thing that you just do.
Let the President have who he wants even if she tells lies. I think they are all forgetting that these people work for us. The President does not really hire these people. The tax payers pay her wage. Bush seems to be way over in how he dishes out our money. I have never seen anything like this. I can recall that congress got mad about the travel office stuff and it was little money. Bush has handed out Billions with out a word from Congress. That is with a B.

12. Why did you think he was "more stand-up than that?"
http://aolsvc.news.aol.com/news/article.adp?id=20050116...

Biden also praised Rice, but noted that "relations with many of our oldest friends are quite frankly scraping the bottom right now.''
However, Biden also had blunt advice for European critics: "I have one simple message: Get over it. Get over it. President Bush is our president for the next four years. So get over it and start to act in your interest, Europe.''..........

14. Oh Barf
Guess those Hardball interviews aren't the "real" Biden. Terribly disappointing, that.

17. Biden hugged Condi after he questioned her
He was all tough for the cameras, but the announcer on KPFA said he saw him hugging her when it was all over! Was this shown on c-span? The KPFA journalist was in the room and saw it live.

22. He's playing the same game with Alberto Gonzales
He's a total politician. He also made it possible for Clarence Thomas to be on the Supreme Court.
