I am thinking...spots!

Senator's Patrick Leahy (D/VT) and
Ted Kennedy (D/MA) react to Senator Joe Biden's (D/MD) latest ethnic gaffe.

FINALLY SOMEONE HAS CLEARED THIS UP . . .

For centuries, Hindu women have worn a spot on their foreheads.

We have always naively thought that it had something to do with their
religion.

The true story has recently been revealed by the Indian Embassy in
Washington, D.C.

When one of these women gets married, she brings with her, a dowry. On her
wedding night, the husband scratches off the spot to see if he has won
either a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop or a motel in the United States.

Just thought you would like to know.

I'm not sure who the Senator plagiarized the joke from, probably Rekha Basu.

Thanks go to our friend Pat B. for instantly knowing it to be a "Bidenism".
