PREENING PEACOCK
Re: Shawn Macomber's The Fifth Nag of the Apocalypse:

I thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Macomber's hilarious take on Biden's vane stump speech. It's important to remember, however, that Biden's clownishness has a long history, beginning with plagiarism in law school, a badge of self-deceit and blatant fakery which he carried into his 1988 Presidential run, when the Dukakis campaign demonstrated that he had lifted big chunks of his stump speech from the UK's former labor party leader, Neal Kinnock. See: http://www.famousplagiarists.com/politics.htm#biden

The problem with Biden is that his lack of authenticity is on record. There really is no "there" there. A preening peacock, and probably a swell guy, to be sure, but certainly not a viable contender for the office of President.
