Biden did not lie. He just repeated what news report said . Those were shown to probably be wrong but he was never tested it's all hearsay. At any rate is it is a disgusting to bring up such a tragic time with bologna, the usual GOP lies. Everything you know is wrong. Another phony scandal to add to hundreds of others. All discredited totally never retracted. Remember innocent until proven guilty or even of interest to law enforcement LOL.
Bullshit.
First you claimed it was true.
Not you claim it was reported.
That is total and conplete BS.
We quoted the article, the police AND the judge. Absolutely a lie.
No newspapers report anything but what was posted here until Biden lied about it.
Joe knows a good tall tale goes a long way...over and over and over.
Doesn't a "drunk truck driver" sound so much better than "pulled out in front of a truck that had the right-of-way"?
Look at the mans track record.
He gives zero ***** if he ruins a mans life if it gets him some more votes. And when he gets caught lying, he has no shame...he brags about it.

BIDEN: Look, everybody tells you "don't take any chances," because the truth of the matter is I've gotten myself in trouble. Hell, I might be president now if it weren't for the fact I said I had an uncle who was a coal miner. Turns out I didn't have anybody in the coal mines, y'know what I mean? I tried that crap — it didn't work! [APPLAUSE] But I actually thought it!
STEWART: You believed it!
BIDEN: I actually believed it. I'm from Scranton, Pennsylvania, I figured there
had to be a coal miner somewhere in the family.
STEWART: Nothing, huh?
BIDEN: Nothing! He was an engineer. We were Irish, y'know, and I thought the Welsh and English owned the deal, so we must be coal miners.
STEWART: You took a stab in the dark, huh.
BIDEN: I took a stab in the dark, and I found out he graduated from Lehigh! What can I say?"
Biden leaves a big part of the story out: He didn't say his uncle was a coal miner because he thought it was true; he did it
because he plagiarized his speech from then-British Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock, who does come from a family of coal miners. Biden didn't just make someone up, he stole someone else's life story.
