Democrats in 2009: Never let a crisis go to waste. Democrats in 2011: Those damn Republicans are exploiting this crisis

Remember back in 2009 when Democrats said, “Never let a crisis go to waste”? Well, that was then and this is now. Now Joe Biden informs us that using a crisis to push through your agenda is a bad thing. A very bad thing, indeed.

TheHill.com has the latest from the voluble Veep:

Joe Biden speaks truth to power, just not the same truth he spoke two years ago

Unions are not the cause of the country’s economic woes, Vice President Biden said Wednesday.



“Public employees are not the problem. The problem is much deeper,” Biden said during a fundraiser in New York for Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.).

Rather, Biden said, unions are part of the reason the country has a middle class.

Biden said the Republicans are trying to use the bad economy that their policies created to push a conservative social agenda.

We are going to see the economic conditions they created used as an excuse to fundamentally go after the social agenda that the far right has been trying to accomplish for a long time,” Biden said.

It’s horrible that those Republicans would attempt to use economic conditions to help achieve their agenda. Absolutely horrible. Quick, Joe, call Rahm Emanuel and lget him know they’re crowding in on his territory.

  • I think they lie so often that they really don't know the difference between their lies and the truth anymore. They are so hypocritical that it makes me nauseous.

  • Liberal: "What is good for me, I don't want you to have or do. What is bad for me you cannot use against me. However what is bad for you, I can use against you."

    No one other than a liberal can judge or say lies or use something for their advantage. It is a rule it seems.

  • As usual, with dhimmicrats, if you want to know what their plan is, take the nastiest things they say about whoever they're demonizing, change the term to 'dhimmicrat', and you have just decoded their plan A.

    We are going to see the economic conditions they created used as an excuse to fundamentally go after the social agenda that the far *left* has been trying to accomplish for a long time,

    There. I fixed it, Joe.

  • The left only has one game plan since Obummer came to town, (blame it on Bush)
    3 going on 4 years and I guess they still think they can use this tired old line again and again.
    How much do you want to bet that we will still be hearing this in 2016 when Obummer will declare martial law to become king of North America?
