Bloomberg Praises Biden For Having A ‘Set Of Balls’

Source: TPM



IGOR BOBIC 6:22 PM EST, TUESDAY JANUARY 29, 2013

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg praised Vice President Joe Biden in a Tuesday interview with Politico for having a "set of balls" in standing up for his beliefs:

“You know, Joe Biden — you can joke about him all you want, [but] he’s got a set of balls, and he says what he believes,” Bloomberg said. “And he forced the focus (on gay marriage).”

He added sardonically: “I’m sure the president was evolving and was about to do it anyways. But Biden deserves the credit. He should be the hero of the pro-gay marriage community.”

Best two moves President Obama made was picking Hillary45 as his SOS
and nominee Obama choosing Joe Biden for VP

VP Biden is perhaps the best VP ever, and with a 3rd term as VP in 2016, will set history
with Hillary45.

And Mike Bloomberg is also congratulating VP Biden for his gun stance.

And the terminology is appropriate on the gun issue.
It takes a big pair to go against the NRA gun murderer lobby.

Thanks to Mike Bloomberg, the Great Equalizer against the NRA and VP Joe Biden for doing just that.

If the NRA thinks the gun issue is going away, they ain't seen nothing yet.

. Bloomberg endorsed Scott Brown for Senator over Elizabeth Warren.. so he can take his stupid devisive comment and shove it.

Of course, Joe Biden has strength and courage.. just like PBO.

VP Biden and PBO are amazing and have changed the course on Gay Marriage along with all the millions of Activists!

he has a bigger set than you could ever wish for!

VP Joe Biden, has honesty and integrity on his side. He owns compassion and a human soul. So do not for one minute say "that you can joke about him all you want".

Our VP is not the joke. You are! Your comments are snide and unwelcome.

she. Pres Obama and VP Biden have each others backs and Michael Bloomberg must be capable of making a point without acting like a jealous turd itching to jump in the Punchbowl.

And, this isn't the first time I've seen this from him.. but, it's the first time I've blown up at him.

Well I read that hemorrhoids could itch, Cha. Maybe we should send Michael a Case of Preparation H.
