LYING, DOG-FACED PONY SOLDIER”!? (Biden’s Wooing the New Hampshire Voters With his Unique style of Campaigning)
What the hell is “Uncle Joe” talking about? A “dog-faced”!? A “pony soldier”.
Western movies in the 50’s used the term “pony soldier” to describe a horse-mounted U S cavalry soldier. It was not generally used as a pejorative any more than ‘Ground pounder” or “leatherneck”, etc
Same with “Dog-face”…
” The term was used in media during WWII, such as “Up Front” by combat cartoonist Bill Mauldin, who may have heard the term while serving with the 45th Infantry Division in Italy.
“The term gained a high profile in the USA when it was used in the 1955 Hollywood film To Hell and Back, based on the best-selling autobiography of Audie Murphy, the most decorated U.S. soldier of World War II, and starring Murphy in the lead role. The film included a song, The Dogface Soldier, originally written in 1942 by two U.S. Army infantry soldiers; it was adopted as the song of the 3rd Infantry Division, and was widely played and sung during the war.[2] The song eventually sold 300,000 copies. The song is still sung every morning after reveille by the soldiers of the 3rd Infantry Division while in garrison at Fort Stewart, Georgia and Hunter Army Airfield, Georgia.”(Wikipedia)

Poor old Joe…that’s why Democrats need to get behind Joe and give him the nomination for president. Like the rest of America, Democrats are horrified at the prospect of a President Biden, but out of pity for this old political ‘war horse’ (Joe might want to use that term in insulting one of his voters ), Dems need to send him into retirement with this one last “honor”. dlh

Biden, in New Hampshire, jokingly calls student ‘a lying, dog-faced pony soldier’
(Joe) Biden, 77, has gone on the offensive following his disappointing fourth-place finish in last week’s disastrous Iowa caucuses, well behind rivals Pete Buttigieg, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.
(A student from) Mercer University in Georgia, (asked) Biden how he could remain competitive in the race after that performance.
“It’s a good question,” Biden responded. “Number one: Iowa’s a democratic caucus. You ever been to a caucus? No you haven’t. You’re a lying, dog-faced pony soldier. You said you were; but now you got to be honest. I’m gonna be honest with you. It was a little bit confusing in Iowa.”
