Liberals like Biden can say whatever they want and it's just OK

To the editor,

Joe Biden is just a heartbeat away from being the leader of the free world. Really? While recently speaking to an audience that included hundreds of black people, he retorted, "They're going to put y'all back in chains". Next day, President Obama tells the nation that it's okay regarding what he said because you know, it's all about the context. Really? Seems a Democrat can strike the most obnoxious, racist sounding slap against the other side and oh gosh, what's the big deal? A conservative would likely have been fired and sent to political purgatory for such an incendiary remark.

Thirty-six year senator Joe Biden makes what he thinks is a seriocomic play on words and "planet liberal" gives him a high five. No matter that he sounds like Keith Olbermann imitating Bill Maher. Sort of like private Gomer Pyle imitating a tough talking deputy Barney Fife. I mean good grief what's next, "your mother wears Army boots made in China and the rich fat cats made her do it"? Nothing could be finer than to hear clueless Joe bash Republicans in Carolina in the morning? Does he really think right of center America is that stupid? Apparently he does and let's hope he continues to think that way because he'll be fighting for our side and not even know it. Hey Joe, while you're at it, invite Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid on the stage with you because they too seem to think the majority of the nation is made up of "spread the wealth" liberals.

Okay, how's about we all pay a little attention to just how high the media sets the bar for VP elect Paul Ryan versus the current VP. Which should make for one fascinating comparison since the bar is set so low for Biden that a double jointed Pygmy limbo rock dancer would slip a disc trying to go as low as he can go. Trust me, the bar for Paul Ryan will be set as high as an elephant's eye. He would have been crucified had he made a comment anywhere near as wackado as Mr. Biden. Does anyone have any doubt that he will indeed get crucified for making remarks far less inflammatory. He will be slammed for creating class warfare while Joe Biden gets a ho hum cuz it's just "ole Joe being Joe". Just as the second in command utters into the ear of the leader of the free world, "BFD" (Balderdash for Democrats?). Yes, the Democrats and their modern day liberal brethren can say pretty much whatever they want and if it doesn't sound right? Well, it was just taken out of context and it's no big deal.

The double standard nonsense that will be piercing our eardrums from the mainstream media (White House mouthpiece apparatus) over the next three months will be deafening and maddening. Their hypocritical, duplicitous behavior will crash up against the constitutional, conservative thrust of decency and common sense. The irony will be totally lost on the media and liberal intelligentsia. The modern day liberal motto must be delivered forth unabashedly — "one standard for me and another for thee". Will the psyche of this ole curmudgeon survive intact until November 6th? I dearly hope so cuz I'll be voting for some real R&R.
