Biden Threatens to ‘Strangle’ Republicans

DAYTON, Minn. — Vice President Joe Biden has told Democrats at a Minnesota fundraiser that he’ll “strangle” members of the GOP who complain about the federal budget.

According to a pool report from Tuesday’s event in Dayton, Biden was telling the crowd that Democrats know how to balance the budget. He said, “If I hear one more Republican tell me about balancing the budget, I am going to strangle them.”

He quickly added: “To the press, that’s a figure of speech.”

Biden joined former Vice President Walter Mondale at the fundraiser for 350 people paying at least $150.

Earlier in the day, Biden spoke at a rally at Macalester College in St. Paul and focused on the Obama administration’s efforts to turn the economy around.

    We’re so proud here in Minnesota to have the vice president campaigning for Mark Dayton! Now we can finally forget about him being voted by Time magazine as the worst Senator in history, or that he even gave himself an “F” after serving his ONE term. We can also forget about his alcholism, manic depression and the fact that he shut down his office after 9/11. Now we can finally focus on his great plan to get Minnesota back in buisness, this brand new thing called class-warfare where all those evil rich people give their money to people who just hate working. God bless Joe Bite-me and God bless the trust-fund baby Mark Dayton and his medication.

      Wandering speech, word salad, tendency towards violence, and probably a vacant stare to boot. I’d say that qualifies for a diagnosis of schizophrenia and I would suggest you get help.

      I must agree. Look at previous speeches by Van Jones, and that idiot who runs SEIU. They are talking revolution to a marxist, share the wealth era. All we want is a return to the Constitution, the document so many men and women have died for, lost a limb, blind now, and would do it all over again. Are we talking revolution? No! We want a peaceful debate about the issues, a return to values, a return to God. It is our “duty” through Divine Providence to pledge our lives and our sacred honor to restore this country to the Glory and Power that The Almighty wants us to have. We have a chance to seize the moment, not by violence, by education of history. If the left want violence, it will fall on deaf ears because our cause is “just”!

    Anyone from the current administration should feel very comfortable on the Macalester College Campus. When you go past the campus it is like driving back into the 60′s with the way the students dress. It is also a campus with a large number of radicals.

      If the democrats can balance the budget, then why don’t they? Just a lot of talk, they don’t know how, nor do they want too. They haven’t even presented a budget to be voted on. That way they don’t have to account for what they spend, just spend, spend, spend as if there is no end to it. Who’s watching with no budget to be accountable for. President can send all kinds of money anywhere he wants overseas and who is to hold him accountable?

    Funny … Seems to me that Biden is best at “strangling” himself. As President Obama says – “No one messes with Joe” … that`s usually because they are too busy laughing at his unique ability to mis-speak at the most opportune moments … Poor Joe …

      SPELLCHECK- most of the posters on this site are like Sarah Palin. They can’t spell. They make up words. They can‘t formulate a coherent sentence because they can’t formulate a coherent thought. Their responses are neither valid nor well thought out because they really are ignorant fools. How else is one to explain their fascination with Glenn Beck and Andrew Breitbart?
