EXCERPT:
JOE BIDEN: “I want to say one thing to the wounded warriors: You are the spine of America. And that's not an exaggeration. I really mean it. You are the backbone, you're the spine of America. You're the reason why we're the nation we are. You're the best America has to offer and God love you all. That's all — oh, over here too? Well, I tell you what, thank you. And Jill is gonna kick me in the rear end if I don't get out of here and finish my job. No, I really mean it. You're the sinew and spine of America. Not a joke. You know, the idea that someone would say winners and losers and — anyway, I don't want to get involved. But thank you, thank you, thank you. One percent of you, one percent of you, defend all of us. One percent. That — those of you who are wounded, and like I said who died, are the ones who have kept this country what it is."
