Biden Makes Fun Of Indians

Recently announced Presidential candidate and oh-so-sensitive liberal Democrat Senator Joe Biden:

WASHINGTON — They say the main thing standing between Joe Biden and the White House is Joe Biden’s mouth.

The would-be presidential candidate proved it again on a recent trip to New Hampshire, where C-Span cameras caught him telling an Indian-American activist that Indian-Americans are the fastest-growing immigrant group in Delaware.

In fact, Biden said, “You cannot go into a Dunkin Donuts or a 7-Eleven unless you have a slight Indian accent.”


Don't expect this to get nearly as much coverage in the media as Trent Lott's comments about Strom Thurmond.

Update:

Here's the video.

Biden is the type of person whos mouth continues to ramble long after the mind has expired. In other words, a typical lib-dem.

Biden could always offer that the line in question was someone else’s, and that he was merely “borrowing’ it.

Fact it, Biden is so firmly identified with plagiarism, even the hair on his head is suspect.

Lott shouldn’t have been tarred for his Thurmond comments. But really, is Biden’s comment anything worse than what gets made fun of on the Simpson’s everytime Apu is on?
