Working Class Values, Redefined

Slow Joe Biden claims to have 'em, and is trying to outsource them to his prospective boss:

Is that bona fide or bogus?  Does Rogaine Messiah truly "fight for the little guy," or for the rich, elitist, extremist, power-mad constituencies that have made the Democrat Party the not-so-crypto-totalitarianist mob it is today?

Does this help answer that rhetorical question?:

Barack Obama didn’t take running mate Joe Biden to the woodshed for his remarks Monday on offshore drilling, which broke from Obama’s strong reservations to it. But Biden on Wednesday nonetheless offered a different opinion: “I’m against it.”

Biden flatly told voters this afternoon that he opposes offshore drilling for oil and gas and lambasted companies for failing to tap many coastal sites they have already leased from the federal government. …

Biden stayed perfectly on message — Obama’s message.

How could False Messiah take his running mate to the woodshed?  (1) It's not in his nature; (2) it would be risibly hypocritical after all the verbal turds he's laid; and (3) he knew the rhetorical incontinence he was taking on when he chose him.

More to the point, though, is the question of how "working class families" hit hard by the skyrocketing cost of energy for heating their homes and driving their automobiles will be aided by "more of the same" environmentalist wacko policies that are the chief driver of that price spiral.  For whom are the Regent and the Crown Prince "standing up" with this anti-energy obstructionism?  Sure doesn't sound like anybody from Scranton.

And just exactly how is this a "kitchen-table issue"?:

Is that really the top priority Joe Sixpack and Jill Q. Public?  To continue the deranged pursuit of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney and the criminalization of policy differences even beyond their term in office?  Despite the Donk-controlled 110th Congress doing nothing but that for the past year and a half with absolutely and utterly nothing to show for it?  Does that not conclusively settle the question of whether Bushophobia was EVER about ANYTHING but revenge for denying Al Gore's attempted theft of the 2000 election?  And now Veep wannabe Senator Hairplugs pledges himself and The Chosen one to chase Dubya and Big Time to the gates of hell itself in order to "bring them to justice" once and for all, like they were...well, Osama bin Laden?  Just exactly what "working class value" does THAT represent?

Maybe, once upon a time, Joe Biden did subscribe to those values.  It's safe to say he hasn't for decades, and any last vestiges were purged when "accepted the offer he couldn't refuse" and became another disciple of the Chicago Cherubim, and the thugacracy that created him.
