Biden In '02: If It Were Up To Me, It Would Be 'Ambassador' Nemazee

[disneylandman66]

Yes, total oops. But don't forget—almost every president or VP has found himself in bed with criminals or miscreants. Ken Lay flew GW Bush to the inauguration, but was later convicted of felony (Enron). Rumsfeld was huggy-wuggy with Saddam Hussein...this stuff just happens. More often than not, people arrive at high places by breaking more than a few rules, and laws. Sadly.

[marniespeaks]

oops!

[zidmt]

Hassan Nemazee was arrested on August 25th 2009 for allegedly defrauding Citi bank by using false documents to secure a loan.

Nemazee's additional frauds exceed $100 Million, according to Federal prosecutors

Snooze Fest. ZZZZZ........ZZZZZ.ZZZZZZZZ

[jonr7007]

I dont get it, whats wrong with what biden said? Am i missing something in context?

[tankwfw]

Nemazee was recently arrested for fraud totaling over 100 million dollars

[jonr7007]

Oh... that's unfortunate lol. Nothing on Biden's back though lol.

[ExoneratedUndead]

i LOVE Biden for his blatant honesty

hes scolded for it and made fun of for it all in attempt to try and stop him

He wont stop and he shouldnt

[humanatee86]

I miss the day in 100 seconds.

[DrLeroyGreen]

Me 2.

[terrence0258]

I forgot about that, when did they stop doing that? It just seems like it was here one day and gone the next.

If this was Bush the comments would read more along the lines of...

"Figures, they're all crooks. Lynch 'em!"

"Typical republican cronyism"

"Screw these friggen criminals!"

[kelseywall]

Democrats don't say, "Lynch 'em!"

That's for racist, conservative, crackers.

[njcarlos1]

Actually, I've seen a ton of democrats say "lynch 'em" in regard to Bush and Cheney. It's not racist at all... it was the ideal form of capital punishment at one time. Just because there is a stigma attached to it doesn't mean everytime it's used it's racist.

And I find it ironic you use "racist" and "cracker" in the same sentence. You might also want to go watch that DeLay dancing video on TPM ...all those homophobic, anti-gay democrats sure are surfacing on that video :)

[p00lman]

It's racist in the context of American history when you say it about a black man.

[njcarlos1]

I never said it about a black man rofl. Reading comprehension FTW

[p00lman]

Where did I say you did?

A when-clause is general and often hypothetical.

Basic grammar, kiddo.

[njcarlos1]

Why would you just throw a random irrelevant hypothetical into a discussion that has nothing to do with racism or African Americans? Basic conversational flow, kiddo.

[kelseywall]

njcarlos1:

You said, "Actually, I've seen a ton of democrats say "lynch 'em" in regard to Bush and Cheney."

Can you point me towards the video that shows this? Or are you just making stuff up?

[p00lman]

You said that talking about lynching isn't racist. I said it could be.

Not only do you look childish for failing to see the obvious, but you look even more so for mimicking me. Get your own insults, boy.

[moregravyplease]

Far from an "ideal form of capital punishment," the 'stigma' attached to lynching is that it's inherently un-just. When an angry mob terrorizes and murders an accusee, they become the real criminals. REAL Americans believe in respecting the rights of the accused.

But you're right about people who are uncomfortable with men who dance. It's an unfortunate fact that homophobia knows no party lines. However, it's also a fact that the virulence of anti-gay sentiment is much stronger on your side.

[conspiracon2000]

What's wrong with dancing?

[kraksc]

your a fool

[CalexanderJ]

oops

[bigbengamer]

this seems to me like an attempt at guilty by association. there's no proof that biden or obama was in on Nemazee's scams

[p00lman]

Exactly.

[schoenfelch]

Uhm.. maybe its significant since US has not had an ambassador to Iran since severing diplomatic relations with Iran after the hostage crisis in 1980?

[foxfly23]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. Excellent.

[triluv]

I don't get it. This is the second pointless video you guys have put up. I don't know how much more of this I can take.

[ehkinoh]

LOL

You don't know how much more of this you can take? Man, you must really be on the edge...

[natural]

So what's so news worthy about this? Namazi is not connected to the Iranian regime. He is an Iranian American. I dont see why he couldn't be an Ambassador.

[franknyt]

I missed something. What's the up with this?

[SaveOurSovereignty3]

Sept. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Hassan Nemazee, a top fundraiser for President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton who was arrested last month, was indicted by a grand jury for defrauding Citigroup Inc.,HSBC Holdings Plc and Bank of America Corp. of $292 million.

[franknyt]

Ohhhhhh.

Thanks!

[mutiilation]
