Biden: Let Me Tell You About The Time I Met Some People From "The Hood" (video)
[Really Hot Air] I’m imagining him delivering his acceptance speech at the Democratic convention next year. "And now I’d like to say a few words to black Americans, without whom this moment wouldn’t have been possible. Homies..."

Are any progressives pretending to be outraged about this? Republicans might be outraged knowing how it would have been received had, say, George Bush or Mitt Romney used the same phrasing. (Never mind Trump.) The problem for anti-Biden lefties in wanting to feign upset about it, though, is the same problem they ran into last night with the 2015 clip of Biden praising Dick Cheney: It’s old. It’s been out there for years. The clip above is new, sure, but he’s been telling this same story with the same terminology since he was in office. Here he is as vice president in 2014 telling the Chamber of Commerce about residents of "the hood" in Detroit. He told the same story to the Brookings Institution last year and was dinged for it by the RNC, among others.
