Biden mocks Palin, says entire nation is patriotic

Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden mocked rival Sarah Palin's comment in North Carolina that she loves visiting "pro-America" parts of the country, arguing that the entire nation is patriotic.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have never been to a state that hasn't sent its sons and daughters to serve its country," Biden said Friday in New Mexico as the crowd booed Palin's reported comments. "It doesn't matter where you live, we all love this country. And I hope it gets through that one of the reasons why Barack (Obama) and I are running is that we know how damaging the policy of division ... has been.

"We are one nation, under God, indivisible," Biden shouted to the crowd. "We are all patriotic, we all love this country."

According to published reports, Palin told a North Carolina fundraiser Thursday that the best of America was not in Washington, D.C., but in small towns like the one in Alaska where she served as mayor.

"Being here with all of you hardworking, very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation. This is where we find the kindness and the goodness and the courage of everyday Americans," the Republican vice presidential candidate said.

The Obama campaign issued a news release asking reporters what part of the country isn't pro-America.

While campaigning in New Mexico, Biden said Republican presidential nominee John McCain "has been bequeathed tactics of Karl Rove in the last few weeks" and warned that the final days of the campaign will get ugly.

Addressing a crowd of several hundred in the Old Mesilla plaza, Biden urged supporters to ignore what they hear from McCain and concentrate on the change that the Democratic ticket promises. "You're going to see some really tough stuff," Biden said.

New Mexico has become a critical battleground state where Democrats see a real shot of making up the narrow gap that gave the state to President Bush in 2004.

Biden said fewer than 6,000 votes separated Bush and Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry in the last election, a gap that could easily be made up with a strong showing in early voting.

"Our job isn't going to be done until you cast your ballot," Biden said. "It's going to take all of us here today."

This from a person who, along with her husband, belonged to a political party that wants her home state to secede from the Union.

Can't get much more anti-America than that.

Kinda takes your breath away.

I understand that rural voters are the strength of the GOP, so it makes sense that they want to constantly tell us how good and wholesome we are. But it's still BS.

That said, the article is fairly unprofessional for not directly quoting the governor's words.

How can a black man lead the country? They're like fucking Hutu's screaming about disloyal Tutsi's. Bad, bad things can only follow this much organized hate.

I'm buying more McCain at intrade.

THE SNL skit was classic with this.

For those who didnt see it, they had reporters ask her questions...where are the un-American parts of the U.S....she mentioned all the blue states.

Then they said how about Indiana? She said they have their choice to be American or not to be American depending on how they choose to vote in November...haha...funny.
