Vice-President Biden blasted Republicans today in Philadelphia for suggesting that Obama's jobs bill was only "temporary."
"Let me tell you It's not temporary when that 911call comes in and a woman's being raped and a cop shows up in time to prevent the rape," said Biden before shouting, "Its not temporary to the guy who's store is being held up has a gun's being pointed to a his head if a cop shows up and he's not killed!"
"I wish they knew what it was like staring at the other end of a gun, or a 200 lbs person standing over you telling you to submit," he yelled.
"Folks, it matters!" he added passionately.
