“Vice President Biden made a stunning admission today and we couldn’t agree more: the middle class has been ‘buried’ under the last four years of this President’s policies," said Romney campaign spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg. "Under President Obama, the middle class has suffered from crushing unemployment, rising prices and falling incomes. They can’t afford to be ‘buried’ for four more years."

“We agree, the middle class has been buried the past four years by Obama's failed policies from higher taxes to more debt, which is why he doesn't deserve another term in the White House to make it worse,” said Kirsten Kukowski, spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee.

Wow!!!

This oughta turn the campaign around for Romney!!!

Nice out of context quote. He was referring to Ryan/Romney's tax plan which raises taxes on the middle class to give a tax cut to the wealthy GOP donors.

"This is deadly earnest, man. This is deadly earnest. How they can justify, how they can justify raising taxes on the middle class that has been buried the last four years? How in the Lord's name can they justify raising their taxes with these tax cuts," Vice President Joe Biden said at a campaign event in North Carolina today.

Nevermind, point out where Biden attributed this problem to the president's policies?

Nevermind is such a putz.

This campaign is humiliating for all Republicans. Romney is making Bob Dole look good.

He's just carrying out a family tradition.

Maybe it's news to you, but Vice President Biden and President Barack Obama have been in charge for the last four years. Did Biden say they 'were' buried, but because of our great policies, they're not anymore? No. He couldn't say that anyway without being struck by lightning.
He said they have been buried the last four years, which was an unintended moment of honesty.

Nevermind gets trounced everytime he posts on the warboard.

Obama didn't take office until January 20th of 2009. Check the calendar and you'll see who was in charge in September of 2008, you fucking stooge.

Q: When did the Great Recession begin?

A: December 2007, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research, a private, nonprofit research group.

How long was Obama in office when this happened?

Q: When did the recession end?

A: June 2009, though lingering effects such as high unemployment continued to plague the United States well beyond that date.

How long was he president when this happened?
