Why Joe Biden Should Resign

Why Joe Biden Should Resign

Commented Oct 14, 2009 at 19:25:06 in World

“There was a reason he was chosen, it is because of his vast knowledge on this subject matter, however he should NOT resign..he is also one of the reasons people voted for that ticket. If we are now calling for resignations...are we really starting there? I sure hope not.”

“I would love for everyone who has something negative to say about the order in which Obama handles things that have been thrown at him from all corners of the room to give the solutions with their critiques. The guy is doing the best he can in the whopping 9 whole months that he has been in office. The facts are what they are and I'm still hurt by what happened during Katrina, but the whole country can't go under right now because of one area. Mr. Shear is educated enough to know that the Olympics would have brought work to people across the entire country immediatly had we been able to secure it. He is doing the best he can, and frankly if I was him I would say forget, everybody thinks they can do better than by all means have at it.”

Michael Vick Should Work, but Never Again in the NFL

“The fact of the matter is he lost EVERYTHING he had. He served his time, and has the right to to work in the vocation that he trained for probably his entire life. I have puppies, and love them dearly, but I don't think this man needs to pay one more cent nor one more day as I'm sure that after he lost his enitre fortune, his home, his "friends" and his freedom that he gets it. Different cultures view things in their own ways, I think he more than understands the feelings of the nation on this subject. Yet it's funny, I don't see anyone asking for Sarah Palin to pay the same prices for rewarding the torture of Wolves in Alaska...where is the outrage over that? Is it not cruel and awful behavior to shoot a wolf out of a helicopter and leave it to die a horrible, terrible and freezing cold death? At least Vick has had time in confinement to think it over and mkae a change, she still wants to do it!”

“Au contraire, itsme. he did NOT lose everything. he still has two homes, (I dont even have one.), he has three cars, (I drive a ten year old car.), he is supporting his mother, brother, children, two women and some friends. he has assets totalling $10 mil although his debts total $10 to 50 mil, depending who you talk to. Sounds to me as if he's still better off than most people.

So where do you want to have the pity party???”

“so what does that mean? If he were a "hip hopper" and still had all of his other credentials would that change who he is a person? You don't even realize the rediculous offensive comment you just made do you? It just proves how much further we have to go. For your information he does like hip hop. Not every hip hop song is about pimps and thugs, had you bothered to educate yourself before you "spoke on his behalf" then you would know that. Many "hip hoppers" are extremely educated as a matter of fact the earlier hip hop masterpieces were often poetry set to music, I'm sure you knew that already though right? Please refrain from being just as racially/culturally insensitive as the people wearing hoods when you speak, sit and think about your comments before you make them...I emplor you.”

“umm do you think you could have found some tact in naming this article???? Try to put yourself in the shoes of Natasha's family and friends...This has not been a reality for an entire 24 hour period yet....It just seems a bit ....classless to speak about it as if...ohh well she's dead....just something to think about....”

“Tact is definitely not a strong suit here at the HP.

However, in this case accuracy is. Well... with the exception of that pesky little/HUGE hyper/hypo issue.

Imagine how one prefix can derail a very good job of reporting.

As a former medical editor, I can clearly state that anywhere but in print journalism is this type of error acceptable.

Try it in a medical report, and you will find yourself looking for a job.

(A strong case against all of those medical transcription jobs being outsourced to India.)

SCORES:

Headline = 0.5

Content = 7.25

Blatant errors = 10

Overall = 6.0

Slow down and get it right. It only takes a minute on Dictionary.com or Medline to determine which prefix is correct.”

“Are you people kidding me with this stuff...how INSULTING can you possibly be! Do you think the people that get up and bust their butts every day of the week do it because they are soulless and have no dreams or aspirations? I would rather praise a single mother of two who gets up everyday and goes to work at a hotel and cleans it from top to bottom than to praise these super rich people who would soon step on the maid as look at her!!!! How dare you put down hard workers in this country who are just trying to stay a float! If they didn't exist how would you ever get a big mac combo? These are also the people who tend to you when you are ill and who suture your children for 7 hours a day! They put out your house fire, they cook your dinner.....they are not asking for welfare~ why would you recommend that it is better to be a gold digger who marries a rich man or an heiress like Paris then it is to be a person who works their tail off and is just asking that work to be respected for the hard effort that it is? Shame on all of you are too busy daydreaming about the super rich life that you don't even to the point that you can't vote in such a way that helps to stabilize the one that you actually live!”

“Is that right....three cheers for your dad...it would be terrible if the problem now was not that he didn't have the where withal to do that, but that THERE WERE NO JOBS TO DO THAT!!!! Today is not the same as yesterday and what is going on right now is much more scary than any costume you saw yesterday! You need to learn about economics before you defend the indefensible!!! There is a shortage on the middle class. All dems are trying to do is put things in the tax code back to the way they were...so that we can ALL prosper the way we used to! No jobs...equals.. who cares how many you are willing to work!”

“If you work that hard god bless you....if you still are not able to keep up with the rising costs both of having a family and being a family...then i certainly hope you are voting Obama...because he is the only one who cares about that! In this last 8 years the rich have gotten richer and the rest have been told to eat cake! You are making someone else millions and not being paid fairly for your hard work....and think....you didn't even get to see the play or the ballgame either! If that doesn't honk you off buddy then I don't know what would! Don't vote for a guy who has seven houses and could care LESS if you are in the street tomorrow! He doesn't know what it is like to struggle or to work hard...he has no idea how it feels to either not know if you can keep a roof over your head even though you are working harder than you ever have....or what it is like to be a child of someone in that situation! Think before you pull the lever.....your kids future depends on you voting your economic interests right now!”

“Nobody is saying that.......and I for one am getting tired of this stupid debate! Jobs have not been created in the last 8 years....why is that? Why are we losing them faster than we can create them? Obama is merely putting things back in order the way they were always done...because it worked...only the super rich are upset about that! So, either you are super rich, or you have been listening to rhetoric from someone who is....now hmmmm who could that be???? this country was not built on the BACKS of the middle class....and it sure isn't being built now! There is no socialism in this plan..it is the plan that we always had in place! It did us very well as an economic super power...it's how we got a middle class in the first place~! Now...if we were making more money on importing than our exports thennnn we would be a third world nation and...hey wait a minute....WE ALREADY ARE DOING THAT!!! Use your brain..clearly you have one...it's just a bit foggy at the moment!”
