Balancing The Budget Is Like Blaming The Victim For Rapes Says Joe Biden

In the time Joe Biden has been Vice-President, the United States has added more debt than every President from George Washington through Ronald Reagan. But, somehow or another, that’s all the fault of Republicans and if you want to do anything about it, that’s like blaming rape victims for being raped or something another….aww, who the hell knows what Biden’s trying to say….

When a woman got raped, blame her because she was wearing a skirt too short, she looked the wrong way or she wasn’t home in time to make the dinner. We’ve gotten by that. But it’s amazing how these Republicans, the right wing of this party — whose philosophy threw us into this God-awful hole we’re in, gave us the tremendous deficit we’ve inherited — that they’re now using, now attempting to use, the very economic condition they have created to blame the victim — whether it’s organized labor or ordinary middle-class working men and women. It’s bizarre. It’s bizarre.

I’m not entirely sure who should be more insulted by that — women who’ve been raped or people who want the government to spend our money responsibly.

Either way, notice what we never get from Biden, Reid, Pelosi and that guy who sort of hovers around in the background shooting hoops, golfing, and going on vacation? They’ll admit we have a terrible problem and they’ll blame Republicans for it, but they never want to actually do anything about it. If we agree that we have a disaster in the making and, whether Democrats will admit it or not, we can’t get out of it by just taxing the rich, then what’s their idea to get spending under control?

Any day now, Joe.
