About Indians....
"I've had a great relationship [with Indian Americans]," Biden said. "In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian-Americans moving from India. You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking."
(Joe Biden)
Or this little gem: One of the most overlooked episodes during the 1987 collapse of Biden's campaign was a snippet of footage captured by C-Span in which the Delaware senator, in response to a question about where he went to law school and what sort of grades he received, delivered this classic line: "I think I have a much higher IQ than you do."

If McCain or someone with the nifty little R after their name said that they'd be burned at the stake and called a dirty racist.

Another thing I've noticed...People who feel inclined to actually say explicitly that they're "smarter" than other people...usually aren't. What the are actually saying is that their ego is larger than yours!

Another great example of sound-byte politics.

Come on, Mouth Full Of Teeth! They don't have any issues to discuss here. They cannot tell us about McCain's plans to privatize Social Security, or McCain's plans to stay in Iraq 100 years, or what to do about an economy that John McCain thinks is great so they have to go the Karl Rove route and bottom feed crap to the public.
Leave them alone! They can't help it. :sadly:
What if.....a Republican VP candidate said this?
His name would be Dick Cheney. "Go fuck yourself!"

Oh, but that's all right--he was provoked, after all.

Well, following the pattern of the Bush administration, if a Republican VP said that, he'd be indicted.

As always, you are wrong. I've said it about attacks from both sides. Try harder.

Good lord, isn't it enough that I have to carry both your side and my side of the argument?.....what do you want, for me to win it for you while I'm at it?.......

Nah...just for you to be actually correct every once in a while. But, I suppose that's too much to expect of you.

No, they would just pass a law stating that it was ok to say it... that or that they could keep it classified.
