BIDEN NAILS BUSH

IN THE Delaware NeWS JOURNAL

Biden: Bush 'brain dead' on drug bill
Del. GOP says senator's remark went too far
By MIKE BILLINGTON / The News Journal
Joe Biden rallied supporters for John Kerry's presidential campaign Tuesday with a blistering attack on Bush administration policies that he said hurt retirees and working-class Americans.

Biden criticized the administration's prescription drug policies and their impact on consumers. "He is brain dead," Biden said of the president. His comment was greeted with loud applause at the UAW Local 435 union hall in Cranston Heights but quickly drew the ire of Delaware Republicans.

SNIP

Many of the union members and retirees who attended the rally didn't think Biden's comments were out of line.

They said in the past they often crossed party lines to support the late U.S. Sen. Bill Roth, a conservative Republican who spent more than three decades in the Senate, and continue to vote for U.S. Rep. Mike Castle, a moderate Republican. However, they would have a hard time supporting Bush, they said, because of his administration's policies.

1. Not the SHARPEST tools in the shed, though, are they?
"They said in the past they often crossed party lines to support the late U.S. Sen.

They can't seem to figure out that when you support a Party Candidate, you are supporting THAT PARTY, AND IT'S HEAD.

ESPECIALLY when it comes to rePukes.

Stupid.

2. Lots of people don't get that
I've got friends who continue to insist that Rudy Giuliani is different than the other repukes.

And on DU, you can find plenty of people who will speak favorably of Pat Buchanon's "integrity" simply because he is consistent. As if being a consistent supporter of the Nazis was a Good Thing.
