Joe Biden Postpones Trip to Tampa Citing Concerns About Tropical Storm Isaac
Vice President Joe Biden (file photo)
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden is postponing his planned trip to Tampa, Fla., the site of the Republican National Convention.
An Obama campaign official says Biden is putting off Monday’s trip in order to ensure that all local law enforcement and emergency management resources can stay focused on Tropical Storm Isaac, which could impact Florida during the convention.
Biden had planned a two-day swing through Florida during the Republican meetings to counter their message. The official says Biden still plans to continue with stops in Orlando and St. Augustine, Fla., on Tuesday, though those plans could also change based on the weather.
The official wouldn’t say whether Biden would reschedule his stop in Tampa, only that the campaign was monitoring the storm. The official requested anonymity in order to speak ahead of the campaign’s official announcement.

I heard (and yes, I realize this sounds like a conspiracy theory…I was never a conspiracy theorist until this administration and I wouldn’t put anything past them) that they had something planned that would make the public sympathetic towards BiteMe and hurt the Republicans. Maybe their Patsy got picked up by the law for being illegally here and is in jail.

Posted on August 25, 2012 at 12:02amWow, Biden is afraid of Isaac? In the Bible, Isaac means “he laughs”.
My name must be Isaac… because I’m laughing at Biden being too afraid to come to Tampa.
Or did Obama put Biden on restriction for his latest flubs?
BO; Joe, you’re a really great gut but, you’re restricted to your room.
JB; Awww, come on man, I’ve been really good for you.
BO; Yea, but you keep messing up.
JB; Come on man. all I want to do is go to Tampa.
BO; Joe, you will just get in trouble there.
JB; How can I get in trouble? There’s a Hurricane coming to Tampa.
BO; What? A hurricane is coming to Tampa?
JB; Yea dude… haven’t you heard?
BO; OK Joe, go to Tampa.
JB; Wow!! Thanks man. Goodbye.
BO; (makes phone call) Hey Valerie,
VJ; Yea, I’m busy, whad’a want?
BO; Joe is headed to Tampa… what do you think?
VJ; Well, call Hillary and give her the code name “Vince Foster”…. she’ll know what to do.
BO; What do I do after that?
VJ; Tell Hillary she’s next in line for VP.
BO; Buuuut, whad about Joe?
VJ; You can visit him in the park later.
BO; Wow, you are the best. How is Van doing?
VJ; He is waiting for you in the park later.
BO; OK. I will leave it all in your hands.
VJ; Of course you will. Now go tell Michele that you really like her cooking.
BO; OK. See you later. (hangs up)

Posted on August 25, 2012 at 12:29amThey found out we were on to their plan, plus the hurricane will make it harder for the Occupy to bait the Tea Party folk, because they won’t be outside standing in the rain. Thus, no rioting to accidentally shoot Joe.
