Lawmakers appalled by Biden: House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert called Mr. Biden's comments "completely irresponsible." "The last thing our country needs right now is Senator Joe Biden calling our armed forces 'a high-tech bully,'" said Mr. Hastert, Illinois Republican. "The American people expect their representatives and senators to support these operations and to support our men and women in uniform," Mr. Hastert said . . . . Mr. Daschle would not address Mr. Biden's comments directly yesterday, but praised how the Bush administration is handling the military campaign. "I don't know that I've come to any conclusions about how long the bombing should take place. I think the president is doing exactly the right thing," said Mr. Daschle, South Dakota Democrat . . . Rep. Thomas M. Davis III of Virginia, chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, called Mr. Biden's comments "outrageous and negligent. . . . . During a meeting last week Mr. Biden [proved he's completely lost his mind when he] recommended to Mr. Bush that former President Bill Clinton be appointed as a special envoy to the Middle East. The suggestion reportedly drew an incredulous response from others at the meeting. washtimes.com
