Fun New Game: Imagine if a Republican said it!

Would it be front page of USA Today or just the lead story on all the major news networks?

Is self-identifying with the controlling majority party wearing on you Bob? Do you *still* need to demonize the Other Side?

Do you *still* need to demonize the Other Side?

Ok guys, I can't watch video at work. Raife: If you don't say something inflammatory I can't abuse you.

Pretty tasteless comment.

[Midnight Son]

Welcome back Bob! I've missed your intellectual prowess! Indeed, only Koontz himself approaches you! Peace!

[Lunch of Kong]

That reminds me of Robin William's comment to his hand puppet in Mrs. Doubtfire:

"And what language do they speak in England?"
"Pakistani!"
(chuckles)"Only in the shops, my dear."

Biden comes across as a total dick in that clip. He didn't even listen to what the guy was saying, he just heard the words 'East Indian' and interrupted to launch into some very ill-considered remarks that I suppose he intended to show that he's in touch with the Indian immigrant population in his constituency. The remarks about 7-11 and Walmart were bad enough but the way Biden interrupted the guy really grated me. It would be a refreshing change to see a politician who actually listens to people and doesn't simply reel off inanities as a Pavlovian response to certain key phrases.

Not to rise to the trolling, but:

A) No one would start a topic about it, because it would barely qualify as news.
B) The left blogs have already been discussing this as being a bad thing. But then, that's what happens when you stand on your principles instead of running a cult of personality around a failed presidency.

Raife: If you don't say something inflammatory...

Your mom is so fat that she had to declare residency in another immigrant community.

[Uncle Larry]

Joe Biden is a total dick, and he rarely comes across as anything else. Have you ever watched him speak before?

I think he'd make a great president, though.

Not that I like this particular game, but you have got to be fucking kidding me.

[shift6]

Forget it, SK. In a couple months we'll hear that no Democrats who matter are nearly as bad as the Republicans who are in the news. The reason? Because for Dems, it would barely qualify as news. ;)

[Andrew Mayer]

Your response isn't news either...

[Jason McCullough]

Yeah, Biden's a dick. Going to get hell for this as he always does.

I think he'd make a shit President, as his sole talent is catchy soundbites about how other people are fuckups.

[Theodore Rex DX]

This makes Republicans look bad. I don't understand.
