They are doing an investigation into what really happened when Biden's wife and daughter were killed and 2 sons critically injured in a car accident.
Questioning whether or not the truck driver that hit them was drunk or not. They have even gone back to the intersection where it happened for their special report - even tho this happened 35 years ago!

Wtf difference does this make? Biden has never investigated this himself.

He's spokesman has put out a statement:

In a statement to INSIDE EDITION today, Biden's spokesman says: "Senator Biden understands the intense interest in him as the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee and has mentioned the accident over the years. His focus has always been on the tragedy of losing his wife and daughter, not on the circumstances that led to the crash. Dredging up the details of the accident now serves no purpose."

Biden's spokesman added that the accident was "painful for everyone involved," including the family of the truck driver.

You can read the entire piece of slime here:

What the hell is wrong with these people??? What would make them want Biden to have to relive these horrible memories NOW? scumbags!

Thanks in advance!

8. What on earth are they hoping to accomplish by this story?
I don't understand if it matters if the driver was drunk or not -- I honestly don't get it.

:grr:

They will hear from me and SO WILL THEIR ADVERTISERS!

24. According to the story
In 2007 Biden told a group that the driver was drunk, but he'd never pursued it. Those miserable bastards want to somehow prove that he wasn't drunk to show that Biden "lied". Sounds like a Karl Rove tactic to me. :mad:

without Rovian encouragement. :grr:

14. Done.
What type of human scum tries to capitalize off of someone else's tragedy? Biden never pursued the matter, and he could easily have made the life of the driver of that truck a living hell given his political position. This is sick.

or some other branch of the state "security" apparatus. Does anyone think they'd tell us?

They are trying to prove that the driver wasn't drunk to discredit Biden's comments. Sounds like a Republican tactic. :mad:

32. People can be so cruel.
Not only did he lose his wife but he lost his baby daughter and his boys lost their mother and sister. Why open up their wounds when this should be a time for them to celebrate?

33. Scum. And even lower is yet to come. I wish writing them would make a difference.
It won't. The fact they got this attention shows that they are pleased with what they did.

Scum, scum, scum.
