I expect this sort of thing from Politico.

I don't expect a whole hell of a LOT from Joe Biden, but coming from the Vice President of the United States, this is just irresponsible.  It's an outrage:

Biden, driven by his Democratic allies’ misgivings about the debt-limit deal, responded: “They have acted like terrorists,” according to several sources in the room.

Biden’s office declined to comment about what the vice president said inside the closed-door session.  Earlier in the day, Biden told Senate Democrats that Republican leaders have “guns to their heads” in trying to negotiate deals.

Let me remind Mr. Biden what the definition of a "terrorist" is:
