#1 I wonder who Biden plagiarized for his initial remarks?

#3 "New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson stirred them by calling for a primary without negative campaigning and saying he would bring troops home from Iraq by the end of the year."

So much for Richardson being responsible with regard to the war. Is there and Donk candidate who ISN'T for cutting and running?

#4 Hey, Dave, I, too "advocate a cap to the number of troops and their eventual withdrawal".

No more than a million troops, and withdrawal after we leave Korea, Germany, and Japan.

Meaningless word, from worthless people.

#5 What pissed me off about the whole Biden thing was how the MSM was so quick to trot out Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton for their reactions. Any pair of idiots who have been so thoroughly discredited as these two have no business in the news. Biden was an idiot to speak without considering the fallout but he's a pussy for apologizing.

#6 The MSM did not root out Jackson and Sharpton, this was their deal, much more so than Obama's. Obama was initially going to let the Biden comment pass by without comment. But Jackson and Sharpton made it clear that Biden's comments were a slap against them-- the Old Guard-- and that's when this kerfuffle took wing.
Check out some of the recent Mickey Kaus postings and his cites. Jackson and Sharpton need Obama. Obama, the son of an immigrant who lacks family geneology to Jim Crow and slavery, needs Jackson and Sharpton to the extent that they bring him credibility to the community. Jackson and Sharpton will not grant Obama that cred without further schooling in paying respect to the Black leaders who have gone before him.
