Biden amends statement, states opposition to China’s 1-child policy

Stung by public criticism, US Vice President Joseph Biden has backtracked from recent remarks in which he said that he “fully understand[s]” and is “not second-guessing” China’s brutal one-child policy.

“The Obama administration strongly opposes all aspects of China’s coercive birth limitation policies, including forced abortion and sterilization,” said Biden spokeswoman Kendra Barkoff. “The vice president believes such practices are repugnant.”

“The Obama administration has yet to issue a clear call to end the policy, which is harmful both to the Chinese and American people,” responded Chai Ling, leader of the student democracy movement at Tienanmen Square. “While the vice president’s retraction certainly clarifies the White House’s position on forced abortions and forced sterilizations, it still falls short of what is required--action.”

  1. As far as I'm concerned, Joey bag o'hairplug and the rest of the "Catholic in name only" Democrats (there isn't any other kind) should have been excommunicated long ago.

    Is it too late to ask for an interdict on Washington D.C. (District of Criminals)?

  2. I think that Mr. Joseph Biden is a fool for saying anything like this. It is against God's Commands as well as the United States of America's freedom policy.

    I think that poor old Joseph should be retired as well as our President Obama. One term of them is enough!
