Jolten Joe:“I Don’t Blame People” in WV who Voted for a Convicted Felon over Obama

snipe 2012/05/19 03:10:10
barack probably won't be happy, but at least Joe did blame Bush!


Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday that it’s understandable why 40 percent of Democrats in this month’s West Virginia presidential primary opted for a convicted felon serving time in a Texas prison over incumbent President Barack Obama.

“When you’re out of work, man, it’s a depression. And a lot of people are still hurting because of this god-awful recession we inherited that cost 8.4 million jobs before we could really get going. And so I don’t blame people; they’re frustrated, they’re angry,” Biden said in an interview with WTOV-TV in Martin’s Ferry, Ohio.

“At the end of the day, they’re going to decide, is the way back to their employment, is the way back to them being able to have a job and raise a family, is it under the value-set and the ideas of Romney, or is it under ours?” he said. “And we feel confident we’ll do just fine.”

    Joe can "feel confident" the 0bama campaign will do fine all he wants. It increases the likelihood of them being blindsided when they lose by a landslide (and I like it!)

    They just keep sending Joe out to make a fool out of himself defending
    0bama. Poor Joe, but on the other hand, he loves his proximity to the
    W/H. I don't even think he cares about being labelled a baboon and idgit.

    Oh, come now, nobody could be that useless while still breathing. Biden got up every morning, took the train to Washington, earned his salary and respect of his collegues, went home to his family every night. Dan Quayle? Who knows what he does except go to church on Sunday morning, eleven o'clock service.

    There is good reason why less than 1% of the population in WVA are persons of color. Like no other Appalachian state, WVA has a climate of racial bigotry that dates back to post Civil-War when many blacks came to the state to work in the coal mines and were considered a threat by the uneducated white boys there. Obama is considered there as both a black man and widely advertised as an "enemy" of the coal industry on which the primitive areas of the state remain totally dependant. That makes him an easy victim of RWNJ propaganda and the coal mine operators do control the small town newspapers and the few media outlets in the state.

    West Virginians have a long relationship with persons in prison. Some of their most popular folk heroes were in and out of prison regularly, and several of their former Governors were sent to prison for various crimes, especially tax evasion. Them "good ole boys ain't afraid of them prisons or them what has been sent there"!!!! Mountainers are always free, they say.

    And Obama has said he wants to end the coal industry.

    Handsome and articulate man, longest serving Senator in U.S. history. Regretted his early membership in the Clan and sought to make up for any damage he might have caused. You would do well to try to imitate his humility, even if unable to accomplish much of anything with your life. But, yes, he was probably one of those who feared the competition from black persons, as do the red necks of today in the Southern States and Appalachia.

    You sure wrote a lot of glowing words about this man who personally filibustered the civil rights act.

    It doesnt' surprise me.
  • Ambassa... Doc 2012/05/21 00:30:08
    Ambassador II
    RWNJs are often surprised by facts, truths, and a changing world in which they find themselves. Senator Byrd told me, with a bit of a moisture in his eyes, that the filabuster was the most regretted thing he had ever done, and
    he hoped forgiveness would "come in the hereafter" as it was not deserved
    in this world.

    Now, will you answer my questions posted above?

    I looked through the piece of nonsense you referenced, which reads like a ranting from so many RWNJs here on SH. There is no mention of any kind of Robert Byrd, or any other "donors" you might wish to attack. I must conclude you are full of S***, just another nutjob spreading whatever passes through your mind, hoping someone will believe your delusions. Sad, just a waste of time to try to talk with you.

    Doesn't look like that great ejamacation did ya much good. 100 book Library? Wow! Probably 100 Hustler magazines stuffed underneath your bed.

    Where in the hell did you come up with your 1% figure? Never mind, I think I know.

    Isn't obama considered to be a black man by the entire USofA? And obama, through his EPA, is waging a War on Coal http://actformining.org/natio... By the way, the United Mine Workers endorsed obama in '08, but the Union leadership says that won't happen this time., Now, that alone should be proof enough of obama's War on Coal and the UMW. So, it doesn't look like the Mine operators and "small town newspapers" will need to say all that much this time around, does it?

    Primitive? The only thing primitive are the few Brain cells you might have left.
