THE JOE BIDEN CHOICE

POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN BY OLIVER KAMM IN THE TIMES

Well, a neo-con like yourself would think Biden a good choice.

He's just another slavish loyalist to the American military-intelligence colossus, never questioning the destructive impact of that establishment on the development of American democracy and the ethical stand of its foreign policy.

He's also rather a weasel-like politician, one fitted with an almost cancerous ego, transplanted hairline, and plastic teeth.

Weasels can be aggressive, snapping and growling, just as Joe Biden can be. In fact, the list of stupid things Joe has said over his career is a long one.

But then he's back with that big plastic smile and new words intending to make people feel he never said what he said before.

He's a ghastly choice, second only in his rating as a phony to John Edwards, leaving out of the ratings Lieberman who is in a class utterly of his own.
