Biden no comment on State Secrets bill he had co-sponsored

links to TPM, which links to HuffPost

Sigh - downside to Joe as VP instead of Senator?

1. This is really misleading.
The title makes it sound like Biden co-sponsored state secrets when infact he sponsored legislation that was against state secrets.
I saw this earlier at HuffPo and Biden was getting bashed. badly. People are not reading the whole article.

3. I just sent off an email to Sam Stein, the one who wrote that piece.
I mean, seriously, does anyone really think that Biden would publicly speak out against one of Obama's policies? haha - yeah right.

4. and if he did, they'd make a snarky story about Biden going rogue...
poor guy can't win... no wonder he's just cheerful to the media and doesn't seem to give a damn about the small stuff.

5. It would be insane for him to speak out, especially this early.
I hope Joe knows how much he is appreciated. He sure gets alot of shit from the media.

6. I am hopeful
that eventually Joe will get the recognition and appreciation he deserves. Maybe he needs to get another DOG!

7. He can't go against his boss. This is kind of ridiculous.
