Is it a reaction to the pope bashing that occurred? He is a Catholic, and he may not have liked his words being used as they were?

Obama had dropped a few hints for Hillary according to the press as well, so perhaps he couldn't keep fully quiet after that?

Afghanistan, fought her against her actions in Libya & is now fighting her (along with Obama) of her plans for Syria.

When there was all that talk about Joe running for Prez it was to stop the Clintons.

He's not a fan.
He's a scrappy guy from Scranton, and his wife is a teacher.... they both have blue collar roots.
I don't think he sees eye to eye with the Clintons on many things and his latest comments are more proof of that.

Jo is no friend of the people.
In fact, if you sat with him to talk issues I am quite certain you
would be appalled by his vapidity.
Nice hair, tho.

I think Jo is an empty bag.
Anyway the wind blows.
A terrible choice for president.

where just about any possible combination of unlikely scenarios are welcome.

BTW: I still think Warren's the one to be picked to inherit Hillary's delegates after the Comey Report kills her candidacy. Tell me I'm wrong.

Nevertheless, thanks Joe!

...it’s important for political leaders to push for and talk about the big goals they want to achieve.
