Ok, I watched this when it happened on 9/11 and have been searching my ass off to try and find it in light of things Biden has recently said.
Go to 17:05 in the video, it's only around a minute long.

I always considered this one of the last intelligent things to leave Biden's lips but I could never find the video again until now.
Transcript of interview:
Linda Douglass: ...we have to be on a war footing, uh we, and the Senator Hagel said that we have to start securing our borders, locking down our airports, revisiting the way we protect our public institutions--what about that?
Senator Biden: I hope that's not true. Uh, I would say it another way. I would say we've come face to face with the new reality. A reality that we knew existed, we knew was possible, a reality that has happened in varying degrees in other countries. But if in fact in order to respond to that reality, we have to alter our civil liberties, change the way we function, then we have truly lost the war. The war is one that allows us.. the way to conduct the war, is to demonstrate our institutions are functioning, that your civil liberties, your civil rights, your ability to be free and walk and move around infact are not fundamentally altered. Anybody who is willing to strap dynamite to their body or have a kamikaze suicide mission, you'll never fundamentally be able to stop. It doesn't matter what you do, there are a lot of things we can do though to diminish significantly the possibility of this happening again without, uhm, changing our character as a nation.

Ok, added a transcript above for those who can't see the video.

Then....
and Now:

Jill Biden: Americans should just put up with it. ::)
-
bump, This is pure golden hypocrisy... I can't believe people didn't check this out and comment. This is a freaking huge flip flop lol...
-
The left is smug, dishonest, corrupt and unapologetic about it's mindless hypocrisy. It uses its whores in the media to dupe the public into scapegoating Republicans as evil and the American people as "misinformed".
Say what you will about the right- But with most of them, what you see is what you get.

Obama's police state: Now private parts are public province(Dramatic view of Obama's rule)
wash times ^ | 11/26/10 | jeff kuhner
________________________ ________________________ __________
President Obama is engaging in a relentless assault on our freedoms and constitutional government. The growing backlash against the new
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) airport screening procedures signifies that Americans finally may have had enough.
There is a grass-roots revolt against state-sanctioned sexual harassment. And who can blame the protesters? Children are stripped of their shirts, and their private parts are touched. Nuns and old ladies are groped by intrusive TSA agents. Breasts have been fondled. Men's crotches have been patted down. Full-body scanners show images of people naked - a clear violation of privacy and civil liberties.
The administration insists that the enhanced procedures are vital for national security. The rationale: Last year's underwear bomber nearly blew up a plane flying over Detroit. Hence, everyone's private parts are now the property of the federal government - at least when flying.
This is wrong and dangerous. Airport screening procedures have been a huge experiment in mass political correctness. For fear of insulting Muslims, the U.S. government has insisted that all Americans take off their shoes, pull out their belts and walk through metal detectors at airports. Americans have patiently put up with these inconveniences. But now, for many, enough is enough. "Don't touch my junk" has become a national rallying cry.

No - it goes to show that Biden often says shit that greatly contradicts what he actually does behind closed doors.

He supports the patriot act today.
He voted for the patriot act back then.
If you're saying he helped write it, where the fucking hell is the contradiction?
The dumb fucker has been for it all along...
