Biden: Tea party 'terrorists'

Vice President Joe Biden joined House Democrats in lashing tea party Republicans Monday, accusing them of having “acted like terrorists” in the fight over raising the nation’s debt limit.

Biden was agreeing with a line of argument made by Rep. Mike Doyle (D-Pa.) at a two-hour, closed-door Democratic Caucus meeting.

“We have negotiated with terrorists,” an angry Doyle said, according to sources in the room. “This small group of terrorists have made it impossible to spend any money.”

Biden, driven by his Democratic allies’ misgivings about the debt-limit deal, responded: “They have acted like terrorists,” according to several sources in the room.

Biden’s office declined to comment about what the vice president said inside the closed-door session.

Earlier in the day, Biden told Senate Democrats that Republican leaders have “guns to their heads” in trying to negotiate deals.

Well, they have to actually speak words - it goes with the job.

What could they say that would pass your "wimpy" threshold?

To stop the a-holes... they may as well just say, "Shoot me."

guns to peoples heads acting like terrorists. We need to keep reminding the people of this right up to the election in 2012. It is not untrue just shocking.

Keep it up Joe.

:applause:

:rofl:

It is doing what the right did right after 911, just randomly using "terrorist." They are elected officials - quit trying to pretend they aren't.

They ARE fucking terrorists. THEY are who AMERICA should be angry at right now.

and who knows? Maybe Americans WILL vote those god damned MOTHERFUCKERS out for this come 2012.

All I know is that this SUCKS right now.

God Damn it, President Obama!! YOu shoulda KNOWN they were like this! NEVER turn the other cheek for fucking criminals!

fuck.

but he thinks he's the hero of an RPG, and all the world depends on him. Can't be objective when you are suffering from delusions like that.

Give me a break. This is the executive branch. It has the power. Pathetic. Biden will never get over this vote. It will define his legacy.
