Why Biden is not Change

The democratic Presidential campaign claims to have change as a primary goal. To shake things up and no longer be caught in the rut of Washington. However for this to come about the decision was made to choose Joe Biden, Senator from Delaware.

How in the world can they expect me to believe they will bring about change with Joe Biden. Elected to the Senate in 1972, thirty six (36) years ago. Now an entrenched senior democrat. He represents part of the problem we have in Washington. The problem being never to have had a real job. It is easily arguable that a person in office for over 20 years has lost touch with the populace, let alone over 30 years.

What does Sen. Biden represent? Well lets look at his record.

http://www.ontheissues.org/Joe_Biden.htm

Joe Biden on Abortion:

No public funding for abortion

Accepts Catholic church view that life begins at conception. Yet still supports abortion?

Voted NO on defining unborn child as eligible for SCHIP.

Voted NO on prohibiting minors crossing state lines for abortion. (so he not only supports abortion but letting minors have abortion and going out of state to another in order to get an abortion). Voted NO on notifying parents of minors who get out-of-state abortions.

Not much of a change in this stance is there?

Joe Biden on Budget & Economy :

Invest in new programs by ending war & eliminating tax cuts.

Voted NO on $40B in reduced federal overall spending.

Voted NO on prioritizing national debt reduction below tax cuts.

This is the same old tired stance that the democratic party has tried to push since President Reagan. New programs in liberal terms means programs that reduce not increase military readiness.

Joe Biden on Civil Rights:

Voted NO on recommending Constitutional ban on flag desecration. (long time anti patriotic view of liberals, a stance since the sixties.)

Voted NO on constitutional ban of same-sex marriage.

Voted YES on adding sexual orientation to definition of hate crimes. (helping to create another minority that already has civil rights but is demanding special rights)

Voted YES on expanding hate crimes to include sexual orientation.

Voted YES on setting aside 10% of highway funds for minorities & women. ( a clear indication of not wanting to follow a given budget, but increase spending in social programs.)

Re-introduce the Equal Rights Amendment. (a cheap exploitative job of trying to keep minorities ill informed of what is already on the books and win their support/vote)

Joe Biden on Corporations:

Voted YES on repealing tax subsidy for companies which move US jobs offshore. (supports subsidies but not in the oil industry, hurts the American taxpayer by increasing fuel prices.)

Voted YES on reforming bankruptcy to include means-testing & restrictions. (making it easier to from bailout legislation.)

Voted YES on restricting rules on personal bankruptcy. (hurting the taxpayer who is prayed upon by unethical business practices.)

Rated 32% by the US COC, indicating an anti-business voting record.

Joe Biden on Crime:

Voted NO on limiting death penalty appeals.

Voted NO on limiting product liability punitive damage awards.

Voted NO on restricting class-action lawsuits.

(favors clogging up the courts with class action lawsuits that are out of hand and only benefits the lawyers pockets. Not a change at all!)

Voted NO on rejecting racial statistics in death penalty appeals.

Rated 71% by CURE, indicating pro-rehabilitation crime votes.

(same tired old policies of rehabilitation versus punishment)

Divert drug offenders out of prison system. Voted NO on increasing penalties for drug offenses.
(liberal belief that certain drugs are not harmful and should not be punishable. No change in the thinking here of the liberals)

These are just a few of the examples where there is no hope of change being brought forth.

Joe Biden does not represent change.
