August 6, 2014 by PA Pundits - International

October 13, 2012 by PA Pundits - International

By Alan Caruba ~ The Biden-Ryan debate will be the subject of millions of words written and spoken, but, if remembered at all will likely be remembered for Vice President Biden’s obnoxious behavior.

July 28, 2012 by PA Pundits - International

By Michelle Malkin ~ Vice President Joe Biden, America’s textbook Beltway barnacle, still labors under the illusion that he is America’s middle-class Everyman.

As usual with White House class-warfare demagoguery, reality doesn’t […]

Liberal Columnist Kirsten Powers Slams Biden ‘One-Child’ Remark

August 26, 2011 by PA Pundits - International

By Ken Shepherd Joe Biden’s recent remark in which he said he “fully understand[s]” China’s reasons for their 32-year-old one-child policy is an absolutely “appalling statement coming from an American leader.” “What’s next?

Joe Biden Is No Laughing Matter

October 12, 2010 by patpacer
