Joe Biden’s Italian Side


Posted by Bruno on June 27th, 2006


The pinstripe suits… the slicked-back hair… the silk hankerchiefs. I’ve long wondered if Joe Biden has any Italian heritage like I do. Finally, I think we have proof, in the form of his answer to a question on being president:

Speaking to a group of 130 twenty- and thirty-something supporters of his leadership PAC last Thursday, Biden indicated that while he thinks he could be an effective chief executive, as far as the job itself goes, he could take it or leave it.

“I’d rather be at home making love to my wife while my children are asleep,” he said.

Biden’s PAC spokeman, Larry Rosky, said the line illustrates that “this is not an egostistical pursuit for him” and that he is “frankly totally in love with his wife.”

Now that’s a paisan!
