Why all the hate for Joe Biden?

'cause he sucks? Duh?

I don't hate him.

I would love to work for him. He seems like a very cool guy. For example, while he was a Senator he'd take Amtrak from Delaware to D.C. He knew all the conductors, and would also chat with other passengers.

I actually love Joe Biden. He was a brilliant senator. I admire him greatly.

Where do you see all this "hate"? I'm not aware of any huge amount of hate for Joe Biden.

People rag on him constantly, I don't get it either.

No hate, just because he's a plagiarist, won't show his brain scans and he's still at Katy's Cafe?

He's not smart, but he is well-connected and knows how to play the Washington-insider game, which he has done very well for many years. A lot of people see him as an example of the old-school, firmly entrenched career politician who knows where a lot of bodies are buried.

Joe, who?

He had the Patriot Act written and ready to go after the Oklahoma City Bombings. They didn't get it passed tho. After 9/11 he liked to call himself the "Father of the Patriot Act." So that's why I hate Joe Biden.

He's a wimp.

R8 - you just described practically every politician in the US...

He kept Robert Bork out of the Supreme Court. He tried to keep Clarence Thomas out.

Those are two big wins, as far as I'm concerned.

A relative of mine is very friendly with DOCTOR Jill Biden.

Whenever she is introduced as DOCTOR Jill Biden, I always think, "BOOM BOOM BOOM."

R13, you are full of shit. He did not try to keep Clarence Thomas out. He polished Thomas' dick while completely raping Anita Hill. She was insulted and humiliated in front of the Senate. She, being an adult, moved on with her life. Thomas is still whining and should be impeached.

As Chairman, Biden's treatment of Hill was despicable.

You do know he voted AGAINST Thomas' confirmation, right?

He kisses O's pink asshole surrounded by brown skin and a butt-afro laden with dingleberries? ♥☻☺♥

He also opposes gay marriage.

So he's not exactly ahead of his time.

Biden is a foot in the mouth moron, OP.

As a US Senator, Joe Biden voted for DOMA in 1996. That may not mean anything to you OP, but that law is still harming tax paying gay Americans couples.

[quote]You do know he voted AGAINST Thomas' confirmation, right?

Stop trying to hijack this thread with facts.

And he is STILL against gay marriage.

Biden is stupid, corrupt, and his unwillingness to show leadership on the economy has allowed the president to cower in the corner. If Biden were out calling for caps on CEO compensation, new jobs programs for millions, etc., then Obama couldn't hide from these issues.

♥☻☺♥

Well let's see, let me count the ways....they are to numerous to list, but Obama sending this brain dead vp out on the trail thinking he's a pit bull like Spiro Agnew, is ludicrous. The only thing he and Agnew share is the word crook.

He is a very articulate advocate for GLBT issues.

During the 2008 campaign, I watched him have an excellent conversation with people at the GLBT issues booth at the Iowa caucuses, and he was great, well-informed, relaxed and funny and clearly on our side.

I don't recall specifically anything he said about marriage equality, but he's an advocate for us.

Plus, he's a hot daddy who has given me wood since I first became aware of him during the Bork hearings.

The freepers and pumas here will never say anything good about Obama or Biden.

That said, I've been disappointed that Biden hasn't been more forceful in defending the White House proposals or getting the message out about what has actually been accomplished.

The latter is an opportunity that this administration has squandered repeatedly.

It's very possible that Biden hasn't been more forceful because Obama won't allow it.

"He is a very articulate advocate for GLBT issues."

By stating he is against gay marriage?

Oh, don't worry R29 -- he nicely allowed that we should be able to visit each other in the hospital!

:)

He's a complete DOOFUS!

We love Joe Biden. It's the OP that we loathe. OP is a disgusting hate monger.

Totally an asshole during the Clarence Thomas/Anita Hill thing.

Why does no one remember that?

Why do we hardly ever see Joe Biden?

It reminds me of when Dick Cheney would disappear for months into his cave.

I love Joe Biden.

I don't think anybody genuinely hates Joe Biden, but he does have two significant flaws that make it hard to fully embrace him:

1. He can't go more than 2 seconds without saying something unbelievably stupid/cringe-inducing.

2. He's a bit pompous (not in a condescending way, but he clearly think he's a bit more awesome than he truly is).

3. He never says or does anything particularly profound. He kind of...exists.

He ripped into Anita Hill so as not to seem too liberal.

I've never forgiven him for that.

He's our national village idiot.

No, georgie porgie was the idiot.

Biden is an ass

Correction: Biden just fucked Ryan up the ass.

kuz he is a dog and a puke ball. head out of ass please

bidn is evil , get a grip people

Love Joe Biden, always have.

Why are all the Republican assholes who google "I hate Joe Biden" (yes, that's how they find their way to Datalounge and go on to revive this old thread) - why are they ALL SO FUCKING ILLITERATE?!

See R41, R43, R44.

Gay men who find Ryan "dreamy" with "purty eyes and a purty mouth" are completely mentally deranged. Or most likely, the ones now posting this shit here are freepers who have suddenly permeated DL. I find it shocking that any gay man would truly be a Republican.

Today's ReThugs are ugly inside and out and even if one ReThug male WAS attractive, his politics would be enough to turn me off!

ReThugs want to take away gay rights and womens rights, they want to push civil rights back to the dark ages! Ryan and Romney WILL take away your rights.

If the Republican gays don't see this, they need to seek some mental therapy.

Ageism, I dare say. If he dyed his hair, like Romney - might be perceived differenly.

Why are people saying Biden's against gay marriage? His remarks earlier this year about being in favor of it is a major reason why Obama went ahead and declared he was now in favor of it as well.

Riiiiight, Barry & Biden are so pro DOMA and equal marriage. sigh. Bet Time & Newsweek magazine wish they could retract those covers about now...

I like him. I think he's smart, sincere and funny. And I'd do him.

Love Joe Biden. Great American.

Hate OP. Jerk.

The next President of the United States is Mr. Joseph Biden. It is time.

He's funny and smart, I don't get the distaste.

The guy is half way there in terms of being senile, he says the wrong thing all the time, fake hair, fake teeth, fake tan.

and I think he is kind of hot, as is his son

Joe Who ?

Joe's a nice guy. Why does OP see hate everywhere?

He's a buffoon.

Love him. He's the ideal vice-president: compassionate, outspoken, fairly honest.

But even so, I do not want him as my president.

He is a lovely example of American politics, media and culture. We give Joe a complete pass on his gaffes while we're still laughing at Dan Quayle's spelling of tomatoe and Lloyd Bentsen's carefully rehearsed put-down 25 years later.

I bet he is smarter and more savvy than Obama. He is badass, stupid people don't get it.

most people laugh at him

Joe Biden is the John McCain of the Democratic party.

Clownish, impulsive, poor judgement & too old to be president.

Past his expiration date.

He's a dumb Jew. He's over there crying about a few slant eyed gooks and sneak dutchman, who got killed because the pilots were STUPID ENOUGH to fly over a war zone where they were told NOT TO FLY.

Then he goes on about how more Palestinians should be killed.

He saved Obama's ass in the debate. Sheesh, how quickly we forget.

He's also of the few good old Democrats we have left. I think he's great.

Whatever one may think of Uncle Joe there is no doubt he would be better than the current president.

I haven't heard a lot of hate for Biden. He's not at all annoying. He just seems to mind his own business. At least he's not sending planes to fly into buildings so he can make 69 billion from a bogus war.

I think we should send Biden to the Middle East instead of Kerry.

This did not age well.

The "hate" for Biden is nothing compared to the unhinged rage for Trump that America was subjected to for years.

Why? Because some have already forgotten how shitty it was with Trump in office, and some will NEVER be happy even though things have been steadily improving.

[quote] He tried to keep Clarence Thomas out.

There are people in this thread with no clue about thiis ugly episode.

Biden single handedly ensured Thomas would get on the bench. Attacking Anita Hill the way he did completely undermined the best argument the Dems used to keep him off the Supreme Court.

His vote against him was meaningless by that point. Damn some of you are just political simpletons. No wonder we got Trump.

Joe was the one who brought up the "Long Dong Silver" episode when he sent a young congressional aid to every video store in D.C. to get a list of Thomas's video rental lists.

Joe really played up the "pervy black man likes white women" stereotype. He has no idea how much that enraged the African American community.

I don't "hate" Joe Biden, but I am intensely critical of him for good reason. He's a public official and he should be held accountable for his actions.

[quote]He is a decent guy.

This is a qualification for friendship, not the highest office in the land.

[quote]He was a good Senator.

Extremely debateable at best. Surely you have been exposed to some criticisms of the man?

[quote]Also, he is a smart, funny person.

Again: this man is not your friend. Stop embarrassing yourself. "Funny" is so besides the point I won't touch it, but if he's what you think of as a "smart person," you must be pretty stupid yourself.

The trolling and fawning here is nauseating.

See the link if you're still confused about why people criticize your "Dear Leader," OP. You're no different than a Trumper with your "big man" worship.

I am just so happy that he’s in there instead of Trump. Why the hate?

I like people who aren't Trump! Why do you think about stuff?

I like Blue!

We love Joe mostly because he’s not donald trump.

Trump supporters and Russian trolls. He is a fine man 100000x better than the former Cheeto in charge.

He's got a big dick and a hot straight son that gays will never have so that alone draws more hisses than a leaky radiator.

Don't hate him but more importantly he's NOT the BIG ORANGE SHIT BAG.

He’s fine.

Why post this old thread? Joe Biden is not hated now, even by most Rethugs.

I read 15 or so posts before I realized this was an old threat. Not aware of anyone who likes him among the people I know, even the ones who voted for him just did because they thought he was better than Trump.

thread

Biden is a decent guy and obvious improvement over Trump, but he is too old to be President and the constant mask wearing is a bit much.

He's filet mignon but we only eat...

I don't hate him, but I don't have the greatest respect for a career politician. Or almost any politician for that matter. Like actors, they're professional liars.

The ones who hate Biden aren't the conservatives on gere. They're the butt hurt Bernie bros because Bernie lost AGAIN!

Although I'm sure that I won't agree with everything he says and does, it is actually a comfort for me right now to have him in the White House.

Going from "marriage is between a man and a woman" to "trans women are women" is not progress. It is pinkwashing.

"Butt hurt" is a homophobic slur.

Enjoyment of anal sex is what it takes to be a

Real man

Now and forever.

I am sick and tired of

Everyone

Who makes excuses for

Offensive speech against gays.

Now

That we have civil rights,

Hardly anyone cares about us anymore.

Everyone focuses on tr-ns tr-ns uber alles.

Patronizing, isn't it?

Respect

Is earned and can be forfeited in

Many ways, and not

All of them are necessarily

Racist or homophobic on purpose. However,

It is possible to hurt people without

Even trying

Sometimes.

How many of the anti-Biden posters will refuse the $1,400 stimulus payment? Also the Trump supporters should return the money since they believe the election was stolen, hence, Biden is not the real president.

Criticizing Biden is not the same as being anti-Biden. I don't qualify for the $1400.

He’s a statesman. I like that. And far bolder than Obama.

Because he's a CREEP.

Ignore the overdramatic music, but here's the footage that keeps getting pulled:

He is a good dude

Joe Biden voted against Clarence Thomas.

I love it that the 80% troll posts in this thread were completely ineffective on Nov 3rd 2020. They must have all been gone back to Vladivostok and by now have drunk themselves to death.

Sweet Schadenfreude.

I love Joe Biden as do most people I know

R102- He's been president for like 5 minutes and you already LOVE him.

You sound like the MAGA people who were gaga for Trump.

[quote] I love it that the 80% troll posts in this thread were completely ineffective on Nov 3rd 2020.

I wouldn't say that. The country is more divided than ever and trust in the election process is at an all time low.

Dear lord, R98, I watched your video and *that's* supposed to be evidence against him for being "creepy"? I had to laugh at the multiple zoom-ins of handshakes and his hands at women's waists.

I will grant you that there was one little girl at about 4:05 who did not want him to touch her. She was shying away from him. But the others? He's a grandpa. The girls were in front of him, with long hair, and he was positioning them for the photo. He would pull their hair back behind their shoulders and give them a caress on the neck/jaw area. Was it 100% normal? I'd say it's 95% normal. There's clearly no sexual intent; are you saying there is? I see some presumptuous, slightly intrusive behavior from an old guy who has daughters and granddaughters and is used to pulling their hair out of their faces.

He's physical with everyone. Sometimes it's a little close. That's his style. I would find it a little invasive myself. But it's not anything to smear the guy over as some kind of sexual predator.

And one of those women he was hugging was his wife.

The creepiest video I've seen of Joe Biden was the one where he says we need more illegal immigrants while menacingly staring down the guy who asked him the question.

His socially just bombing of Syria by the most diverse cabinet ever has already made him the greatest president ever.
