...indirect Bernie-Bashing?...

"[Biden]...Has "Solid Progressive Record on Economic Issues" "

...'solid record' does not necessarily mean good, great or best record...

...on 'Economic Issues' does not mean all other issues...


...when was this pearl recorded?

...August 25, 2008...

Sun Jan 12, 2020, 01:18 AM
Jan 2020

mitigate his original support: "I think it does a little bit" and that the bigger question for the anti-war movement in general was Obama's choice of Biden. Then mentions gaffes. Then the bankruptcy bill, which was Biden voting for jobs in his state, same as other senators voting for expensive jet fighter manufacturing that brings jobs to their state.

Hardly a smacking compared to 2020.

Try watching the portion IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING that for the full story.

Joe Biden voted for the war. Bernie voted against war in Iraq not once but twice. It's a fact, pure and simple.

If he was a man of conviction, he would have voted against those too because those would have passed anyway.

It is just a perfunctory issue that is being exploited to bludgeon Democrats.

Have you heard of the concept of protecting our veterans? His vote to continue funding was perfectly consistent. When people make a mess, they MUST clean it up.

As to the question of whether anyone cares about Iraq, what do you say to the widows?
