How Low Class can the Countries Leaders Get?

Charles Woods, Father of one of the ex Navy Seals killed by a terrorist attack in Benghazi 9/11/12 was interviewed by Glenn Beck.

The three things he said that were most chilling were:

o At the memorial service, Obama turned the other way and would not look Charles Woods in the eye.
o Hillary told him that they would get that guy that made the video.
o Biden told him that his son had balls the size of Cue balls.

What kind of low class slime balls do we have running this country anyway?

If you're talking abut me, CI, I don't think you've been paying much attention. Chavez is a hard left socialist/communist. I am a pretty darn far right conservative.

To answer the original question.
There is no limit to the depths to which political leaders will stoop. But, in Biden's defense, he thought he was elevating his normal level of conversation.
Reminds me of an old song fragment such by an alcoholic ( back when that was considered "cute") The singer was lying in the gutter with a pig and the song continues,
" When I heard some high-toned lady stop and say,
'You can tell someone who boozes, by the company he chooses'
And the pig got up and slowly walked away."

Sounds like something from Tom Waits.....

My memory is not real clear as I can't even remember the lines leading up to the ones I quoted, but I think it originates with either Ray Stevens, or the Smothers brothers, or Peter Paul and Mary.

Yahoo Search is amazing.
It was the New Christy Minstrels!


quote-----
Yesterday I was reminded of a little song I have known most of my life, but had not thought of in a very long time. It was on a New Christy Minstrels album of my Dad's, and he taught it to me when I was little. I used to sing it to anyone who would listen. I share it today because I think it uses a humorous scenario to make a good point. I just can't decide what that point is. Maybe it is a warning against being judgmental. Maybe it is reminding us that who we hang out with does matter. Maybe it is just silly. Or maybe...just maybe...it is a warning to always sleep it off at home! In any case, here it is...


It was early last September as near as I can remember
And I was strolling down a lane in Tipsy Pride (hiccup)
Not a word did I utter as I lay down in the gutter
When this pig come up and lay down by my side
Not a soul was I disturbing as I lay there by the curbing
When this high-toned lady stopped and I heard her say:
"You can tell someone who boozes, by the company he chooses..."
And the pig got up and slowly walked away!

It's not an easy thing to do...but Joe Biden is making Dan Quayle look better and better all the time.

From a M.S. piece. As usual Mark nails it.

The Incredible Shrinking President - Mark Steyn - National Review Online

"At the photo-op staged for the returning caskets, Obama et al. seem to have been too focused on their campaign needs to observe even the minimal courtesies. Charles Woods says that at the ceremony Joe Biden strolled over to him and by way of condolence said in a “loud and boisterous” voice, “Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?” One assumes charitably that the vice president is acknowledging in his own inept and blundering way the remarkable courage of a man called upon to die for his country on some worthless sod halfway across the planet. But the near-parodic locker-room coarseness is grotesque both in its inaptness and in its lack of basic human feeling for a bereaved family forced to grieve in public and as crowd-scene extras to the political bigshot. Just about the only formal responsibility a vice president has is to attend funerals without embarrassing his country. And this preening buffoon of pseudo-blue-collar faux-machismo couldn’t even manage that."
