Joe Biden, Preferred Candidate of Parasites

October 4, 2008 |  Tagged , , , , | 8 Comments

What can be said of Joe Biden’s prominent donors? The following excerpt from a 2003 column in The Atlantic Online says quite a bit:

“Asbestos litigation has become a malignant enterprise which mostly consists of a massive client-recruitment effort that accounts for as much as 90 percent of all claims currently being generated, supported by baseless medical evidence which is not generated by good-faith medical practice, but rather is primarily a function of the compensation paid, and by claimant testimony scripted by lawyers to identify exposure to certain defendants’ products.”

So says law professor Lester Brickman, the leading scholarly critic of the 50,000 to 100,000 asbestos-related injury claims being filed each year by people who, 90 percent of the time, Brickman says, “have no discernable illness or impairment.” Rather, they and their lawyers “have cashed in on this national tragedy” by filing claims based on “specious medical evidence.”

Parasitic trial lawyers, some of whom infest the litigation Hell that has become my former home county (Madison County, IL), know where their bread is buttered… and Joe Biden holds the butter knife. Joe Biden, man of the people, is always putting the needs of “the people” first. It is just that “the people” are the lawyers that make millions in massive lawsuits.

STLtoday.com has an article regarding Biden’s relationship with one such den of parasites, SimmonsCooper. I’m sure Biden’s votes “against legislation that would have severely cut into the asbestos-law firms’ profits” are completely unrelated to the $4.9 million his various campaigns have received from parasitic (or if you prefer, predatory) law firms since 2003. More from this article:

No firm’s members in recent years have contributed more to Biden’s efforts than those of SimmonsCooper LLC, which has branches in East Alton, Chicago and El Segundo, Calif.

Since 2001, SimmonsCooper employees have contributed $196,050 to Biden’s Senate and presidential campaigns.

The relationship between Biden’s family and SimmonsCooper runs deeper than campaign donations. In 2005, as the Madison County Record originally reported, SimmonsCooper partnered on some of its asbestos cases with a Delaware firm that Biden’s son Beau had just joined.

The Los Angeles Times reported recently that in 2006, Biden’s brother James and youngest son, Hunter, secured a pledge for a $2 million investment from SimmonsCooper for a hedge fund company the Bidens wanted to purchase.

It is a good thing that Joe Biden isn’t a Republican, because then this might be cause for concern. As it is, Joe is a Democrat and furthermore he is the number two on the ticket of the favorite candidate of homeless early voters in Ohio. For “The One” to have chosen Biden as an apostle of Obammunism, his past must be pure and his motives cannot be doubted. Also consider that these are just lawyers profiting from the misery, real or fabricated of “victims” of evil corporations. It isn’t like Joe Biden has associated with unrepentant terrorists or blocked legislation that would demand that a born baby be given medical care as opposed to leaving him or her unattended to die.

The Madison County Record has more on the relationship of the Bidens and SimmonsCooper. Click the following link for the article:

Bidens owe SimmonsCooper $1 million in hedge fund deal

Hmmm… I wonder if there is any connection between predatory parasitic trial lawyers and the high cost of health care that St. Barack and Joey Plugs are going to fix with government control? Nah, that would be just silly.

    Thanks for the piece. Biden and his running mate are parasites, indeed.

    Great article Sam, and it doesn’t matter if anyone knows who you are when you start throwing haymakers at hit the spot – they’ll know you soon enough! But these are details, and up until now, details are ignored for the wider, shallow message of Hope and Change. Will voters start paying attention to details before they vote in November, or does the hatred of Republicans go so deep and anyone with a D by their name gets their support?

    Shane,

    Thanks! I believe that the latter portion of your question is more likely to be realized. I don’t know if it is due to apathy, or if so many people want to be taken care of by some powerful government. I wish I understood the willingness to concede liberty.

    Biden and Obama good candidates for best actors and maybe an Oscar but not for VP and President. The though of this ticket winning scares me.

    Lorey,

    I think we should be very scared! I am afraid the chances are good that these actors will get the role that will harm this nation.
