It never fails, the Democrat Party has a Factual History of Racism, but whenever one shows their true colors, the Liberal "Main Stream Media" turns it's back and ignores it.. But let a Republican or Conservative accidently say something, then the Tar and Feathers, and the Lynching ropes come out.. I guess the Dems and Libs learned it all from their KKK Days.

Biden's comments were captured by C-Span cameras during a June event in New Hampshire where the likely 2008 presidential candidate was once again making the rounds with voters in this important primary state.
During a conversation with an Indian-American political activist, Biden said: "In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian-Americans, moving from India. You cannot go to a 7/11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking."
Slamming Biden for making "ridiculous comments" about the community, the president of the Indian American Republican Council (IARC) in Washington D.C. said in a statement: "Joe Biden has a history of making insensitive and inappropriate remarks . . ."
"In 2004, Sen. John Kerry referred to Sikhs as terrorists and Sen. Hillary Clinton jokingly referred to Mahatma Gandhi as a gas station owner," Dr. Vijay said. "A clear double-standard in the mainstream media will likely ensure Sen. Biden gets a pass over these comments that would get a Republican in deep trouble if he ever made a similar statement.”
Despite the near-total blackout in the mainstream media, the entire incident was captured on a C-Span video clip, which is now spreading rapidly via the Internet.
The Delmarva paper noted that this is not Biden's first faux pas in New Hampshire, which holds the nation's first presidential primary. During his first presidential bid in 1987, Biden told one New Hampshire voter who questioned his law school grades that: "I think I probably have a much higher IQ than you do."
