Bidenisms.net, an anthology of Joe Biden gaffes, misstatements, and other political humor
Democratic Vice Presidential
nominee Joe Biden has a long and distinguished history in his position as
Senator from the state of Delaware. Joe Biden is known as an outspoken
proponent on many domestic and foreign issues ranging from anti crime to
educational initiatives. In anticipation of the many opportunities
for gaffes, misspeaking, and humorous attacks against the Republican
candidates, I present Bidenisms.net, an anthology of Joe Biden Gaffes.
To be fair we also present to you an anthology of Sarah
Palin gaffes and misstatements www.palinisms.com
Joe Biden was criticized for describing Obama to the New York
Observer as "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate
and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy." Biden stated,
"It was meant as a compliment."
In May, Biden responded to a comment made in
Israel by President Bush that compared Obama's willingness to negotiate
with Iran to European appeasement of Nazi Germany before World War II.
"This is bullsiht. This is malarkey," said
Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. "This is
outrageous. Outrageous for the president of the United States to go to a
foreign country, sit in the Knesset ... and make this kind of ridiculous
statement."
Biden drew a big laugh during a Democratic debate in April 2007. NBC's
Brian Williams mentioned Biden's free-speaking reputation and asked the
candidate if he would have the self-discipline as president to refrain
from saying too much. Biden's complete answer: "Yes."
"The next President of The United States,
Barack America"
"That Was Meant As A Compliment"

The Republican National Committee (RNC) launched a new clock today
counting the time until Sen. Joe Biden’s next gaffe.
Just 12 hours after being chosen as Barack Obama’s running mate,
Biden made his first gaffe at 3:31 p.m. EDT. The RNC’s new clock
will count the hours, minutes and seconds until Biden’s next slip up on
the campaign trail.
"Why in his very home state, you can't even go to a 7-11 or
Dunkin Donuts without having a slight Indian accent."
