Gaffe-tastic Joe Biden

August 15, 2012

Writer

Joe Biden is at it again. After staying out of the spotlight for a couple of weeks, Biden is back and better than ever with some truly gaffe-tastic comments.

“Oh, Joe Biden. Joe Biden, Joe Biden, Joe Biden,” Glenn said to open the radio program this morning. “Where do we even begin with Joe Biden? I don't think I've ever seen anybody so gaffe tastic as Joe Biden.”

The hypocrisy runs deep when it comes to Biden and his penchant for saying the most ridiculous things because you know a conservative would never receive the same sympathy from the media and others in government. Regardless, Biden’s most recent remarks are once again offensive, and it is once again being brushed off as ‘Joe being Joe.’

Glenn played the audio of the most recent gaffe on radio this morning:

BIDEN: Look, because now we've got a real picture, point out we've got a real clear picture of what they (inaudible). They’ve said it! Every Republican’s voted for it! Look at what they value and look at their budget and what they’re proposing. Romney wants to let the... He said in the first 100 days, he’s going to let the big banks once again write their own rules – unchain – Wall Street. They're going to put y'all back in chains. He said he's going to do nothing about stopping the practice of outsourcing.

“Stop, stop, stop, stop,” Glenn said in response to Biden’s comments. “Okay. Hang on just a second. Here is – this is the most racist, racist white guy stuff I've ever heard.”

While Pat and Stu were quick to remind Glenn that Biden’s remarks were by no means the most racist thing he has ever heard, there is no denying the racial undertones (and the blatant misrepresentation of the facts) in Biden’s message and delivery.

“Joe Biden is trying to become black, I think,” Glenn said. “Southern black, I'm not sure what he's doing. But he says they're going to put you back in chains. And then he becomes like, I don't know, a character, a Jackie Gleason character from Smokey and the Bandit.”

“Just the word ‘y'all’ would get Romney four days of ridicule by the mainstream media,” Pat added. “And if a Republican had done this – that would be a huge focus. And then talking about the chains thing, putting you back in chains when there's a group of black people in the room is, that's unbelievable. It's inconceivable.”

Mitt Romney, to his credit, came out swinging yesterday and, without referencing Biden’s comments directly, took a strong stand on the issue:

ROMNEY: So Mr. President, take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago and let us get about rebuilding and reuniting America.

Glenn praised Romeny’s discipline, and his ability to consistently take the high road despite some of the vicious attacks he has faced. Compare that to Biden’s gaffes, and you start to see two very distinct narratives that will shape the November election.

“Over and over again these guys destroy themselves,” Glenn concluded. “Give them enough rope, they just hang themselves. All of them are hanging themselves. And someday it will come to – and I think it's going to be in November. These guys are just destroying themselves because what they're saying is untrue. It's an out and out lie. And darkness just doesn't win in the end.”

UPDATE: The hits just keep coming...

Get THE DOCUMENTS for the 'Parental Advisory' Glenn TV special

There was a time when both the Left and the Right agreed that parents have the final say in raising their children... Not anymore.

In the People's Republic of California, the STATE, not parents, will determine whether children should undergo transgender treatments. The California state legislature just passed a law that will require judges in child custody cases to consider whether parents support a child’s gender transition. According to the law, the state now thinks total affirmation is an integral part of a child’s “health, safety, and welfare.”

We are inching closer to a dystopia where the state, not the parents, have ultimate rights over their children, a history that people from former Soviet nations would feign repeating.

The Biden admin has let in MORE illegal aliens than the populations of THESE 15 states

There are currently an estimated 16.8 MILLION illegal aliens residing in the United States as of June 2023, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). This number is already 1.3 million higher than FAIR's January 2022 estimate of 15.5 million and a 2.3 million increase from its end-of-2020 estimate. Even Democrats like New York City's Mayor Adams Mayor Adams are waking up to what Conservatives have been warning for years: we are in a border CRISIS.

However, this isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010. In the first two years of the Biden administration alone, the illegal alien population increased by 16 PERCENT nationwide, imposing a whopping net cost of $150.6 BILLION PER YEAR on American taxpayers. That is nearly DOUBLE the total amount that the Biden administration has sent to Ukraine.

This isn't the same border crisis that Republicans were warning about back in 2010.

These large numbers often make it difficult to conceptualize the sheer impact of illegal immigration on the United States. To put it in perspective, we have listed ALL 15 states and the District of Colombia that have smaller populations than the 2.3 MILLION illegal immigrants, who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration. That is more than the entire populations of Wyoming, Vermont, and South Dakota COMBINED—and the American taxpayers have to pay the price.

Here are all 16 states/districts that have FEWER people than the illegal immigrants who have entered the U.S. under the Biden administration.

1. New Mexico

Population: 2,110,011

2. Idaho

Population: 1,973,752

3. Nebraska

Population: 1,972,292

4. West Virginia

Population: 1,764,786

5. Hawaii

Population: 1,433,238

6. New Hampshire

Population: 1,402,957

7. Maine

Population: 1,393,442

8. Montana

Population: 1,139,507

9. Rhode Island

Population: 1,090,483

10. Delaware

Population: 1,031,985

11. South Dakota

Population: 923,484

12. North Dakota

Population: 780,588

13. Alaska

Population: 732,984

14. Washington DC

Population: 674,815

15. Vermont

Population: 647,156

16. Wyoming

POLL: Should the Government control the future of AI?

Earlier this week, tech titans, lawmakers, and union leaders met on Capitol Hill to discuss the future of AI regulation. The three-hour meeting boasted an impressive roster of tech leaders including, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and others, along with more than 60 US Senators.

The meeting was closed to the public, so what was exactly discussed is unknown. However, what we do know is that a majority of the CEOs support AI regulation, the most vocal of which is Elon Musk. During the meeting, Musk called AI "a double-edged sword" and strongly pushed for regulation in the interest of public safety.

A majority of the CEOs support AI regulation.

Many other related issues were discussed, including the disruption AI has caused to the job market. As Glenn has discussed on his program, the potential for AI to alter or destroy jobs is very real, and many have already felt the effects. From taxi drivers to Hollywood actors and writers, AI's presence can be felt everywhere and lawmakers are unsure how to respond.

The potential for AI to alter or destroy jobs is very real.

Ultimately, the meeting's conclusion was less than decisive, with several Senators making comments to the tune of "we need more time before we act." The White House is expected to release an executive order regarding AI regulation by the end of the year. But now it's YOUR turn to tell us what YOU think needs to be done!
