Oh, No. Not Joe Biden

You raise some good points on how Biden got in bed with the GOP Bushites to tube the American middle class.
I was curious, is this a pattern of Joe the double dealer from the bottom of the deck. I found this in the Denver papers, on the eve of the convention:

By Jame M. Hargood, (Rocky Mountain News online)

We read of all the great concern over the firings of 8 U. S Attorneys, in the second George W Bush Administration. This will play out, and politics will surround the issue***. However, America should never forget the firing of Angela Wright, who had worked in the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, as Director of public relations.

Ex Senator Simpson(R, Wyo; Richard Cheney's master hunting best buddy) read Ms Wright's interview taken by the Senate Staff, over the phone as she was living in North Carolina.( and some in GOP side had axes to grind) She had been fired, earlier. She was a political appointee, and could be fired on the spot for any reason.

However, her ex boss was Clarence Thomas, EEOC(ex) chairman. In 1991, during the Presidency of Bush Sr. The Senate was examining his fitness to be on the U. S. Supreme Court. Angela Wright stated in the Senate staff telephone interview that; 1) the short letter firing her gave no reason, 2) she spoke to Thomas on why she was fired. 3) he told her she had not fired career government workers--who are different than political appointees 4) Then, he did not fire her because of some claimed slur toward an other, in the statement provided to the Senate.

On Oct. 13, 1991, Angela Wright flew from North Carolina to Washington D. C., and was standing by to testify under oath in open Senate sessions, and had been subpoenaed to testify by the Senate. Instead, Senator Joe Biden(then chairman of the Judiciary Committee) sent her a letter, and noted her statement could be put in the record and would not be subject to being rebutted.

Based on that representation, she consented. At the time Scooter Libby's wife had been a main Senate Staffer for Senator Biden. It turns out Ms Wright had been duped. Later on, Alan Simpson attacked Angela Wright, and then for the first time, Clarence Thomas was asked why he had fired Angela Wright. He said because she called someone(no specifics) a f****t.. Yet she was barred from testifying under oath in the Senate Hearing to give her response from the attacks of Alan Simpson, and the reasons provided by Clarence Thomas. In 1991, Simpson had been lambasted in the press as using McCarthy like tactics, designed to quash the full truth.

Alan Simpson started out, as a person who pled guilty to destroying federal property in Wyoming, and was on probation(matters of public record, Wyo).

He likes to talk about second chances, used it in his Senate races-in Wyoming. In the instance of a black women from North Carolina, Ms Wright, she was not given even a first chance, and she denies that she did what Clarence Thomas claimed, under oath. Mr Thomas was barely confirmed as a Justice of the Supreme Court, by a very narrow margin. Even today, many people around America wonder on why Angela Wright was so badly treated in the U S. Senate, were they afraid of her sworn testimony in an open session ? What does that say on seeking the truth, and the firing of political appointees. With today's growing 2007 scandal on political Bush/ Rove firings, America might recall what happened to Angela Wright, and the fear not to address the full truth--in the Senate of the USA.

Clarence Thomas' wife worked for the Chamber of Commerce, an entity devoted to fighting fair working conditions for American workers.

Ask the Senate today, its members, are they for black women from the South having the right to testify before the U. S Senate; in this matter there is no limitation on the truth-but are some afraid to really find out what that truly was. And, ask them not to go for a flawed process to avoid the full truth-for America's sake, in the latest fishy U. S. Attorney firings ?

Justice Dept. Issues a Callback - washingtonpost.com

Where does Anglea Wright go to get justice--after the smears of AL Simpson, rigged with Joe Biden's duplicity ?

BIDEN is SO PHONEY!

BIG, UGLY HOLLYWOOD TEETH!
HAIR PLUGS - PHOOEY.

BIDEN represented big banks against working people.

This gets to the lack of heart of the corporate Democratic Party. NADER would be so much better than a shift, back-bonesless OBAMA!

Biden is a terrible choice.

Joe Biden is a great choice. What a tremendous wealth of foreign policy experience and just plain common sensibility he is going to bring to the ticket.
