I bet Joe is having a hard time keeping his mouth shut on what is going on in Wisconsin.

Somewhere there is an even better video where he breaks down thanking the firefighters for saving his son's lives.

19. I bet if the meeting was private, he said a LOT more than he can publicly.
But in all fairness, NOBODY can say what they really feel when they're speaking for the Administration.

5. Pat told me once joe hooked up w/Obama, most of his videos from his presidential
run were pulled. Bummer. I kept trying to find that one where was speaking to a small group of medical personnel about veterans benefits and health care. He was absolutely passionate and infuriated at the care -- or lack of -- some of them were receiving.

But yeah, I bet he's going ballistic at what Walker -- and others -- are trying to do to their constituents.

8. I heard arguments and changed my opinion on whether the administration and/or national Dems should
get into this. I prefer they stay out of it for now. The *people* have got this and if they got more involved it would be all about them. I like it this way for now.

11. I tend to agree with that too. I just remember how passionate Biden was about the Unions before he
was VP, back when he was allowed to speak his mind.

15. 1) Biden rocks. Especially on this issue.
2) Biden may indeed rock too hard to be let loose on this issue. :D

22. About Biden?
yeah - there are alot of Biden-bashers here. He has made a couple of bad votes. But overall he is a blue collar guy with his heart in the right place. And a soul full of passion. And a wicked smile :)
