Biden working with Mayors and Police to fight crime.... Didn't anybody tell him

that he's suppose to take a vacation?

--------------------
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 6 -- Dozens of mayors and police chiefs Wednesday called on the federal government to focus on fighting crime in cities, saying that the efforts that had driven down urban crime had dissipated since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and that they were seeing a consequent rise in crime levels.

The demand came as the U.S. Conference of Mayors (USCM) met here to discuss a crime-fighting blueprint to present to the next president.

....Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.), a possible running mate for Sen. Barack Obama, said he is determined to ensure that attention is concentrated on crime. "I've not been able to get any traction on this for eight years," Biden said, adding that the presumptive Democratic nominee is "100 percent behind this."

Biden said police have been caught in a bind with less funding available, the FBI deployed to work on counterterrorism rather than urban crime, and economic conditions deteriorating. He said the federal government can no longer say crime is a local issue and called for an additional 90,000 police officers on the streets.

They go on retreats!

That's bullshit - just a cheap Catholic joke, but pretty funny if I do say so myself.

His level of output is MIND BOGGLING. I honest. to. God. don't know how he does it all. Literally. It seems physically impossible to accomoplish all he does within a 24 hour day. PLUS being on every single Sunday morning show for every single Sunday over the past 25 years! And that's AFTER Mass!

Geez - maybe I should try to learn from Biden.

About those Sunday shows - where the heck has he been???
You'd think that since he is on the short, short list, he'd be on all the shows.
Nothing is better than Sunday mornings with Biden.

(saw you on that thread)
Scares the crap out of me.
