This Week in Biden Gaffes: VP Forgets Where He’s Speaking

During a campaign stop at Wright State University in Fairborn, Ohio, Wednesday, Vice President Joe Biden couldn’t remember where he was speaking.

“A lot of you, in this … Wayne State University,” said Biden in a video of the event. It then skips a beat to where he mistakenly refers to Wright State University as Wayne State University again. Only this time the crowd doesn’t let him get away with it.

“Wayne State University or any college in America –” the vice president starts to say before the crowd corrects him.

“Wright State!” yelled Biden. “It also includes Wayne State! It also includes the University of Delaware! It also includes the university and so on.”

    Joe cracks me up. Just a non-stop laugh-a-thon. He reminds me of the ‘Arthur’ character in the sitcom King of Queens.
    A sobering thing to ponder him as next-in-line to the presidency, but on the other hand, I’ve wondered if he would actually be less damaging than O.

    He never admits that he was wrong, or explains why he was wrong, he just goes on as if he got a pass and he thinks that people find him amusing. In my mindset, if he is too lazy to find out where he is, he is too lecherous to be making any promises. He is nothing but a yes man for Owebama. He is to Owebama what Rochester was to Jack Benny. I hear that in the bath houses in Chicago, Obama prefers older white men to perform masturbation on himself. I wonder if that’s why he picked Biden?

    People crazy enough to vote for Obama again should, at the very least, cut the “Biden” part off their Obama / Biden sticker. That way they’ll only look HALF crazy. I would think after Biden made a goof about being in North Carolina when he was in Virginia, he’d write it out on a 3 x 5 card: Remember, you’re in (actual place he’s at). This is the VERY reason why I wouldn’t want him to come speak at my school. The students should be taking bets at which point the gaffe appears (first ten minutes, second ten minutes . . . .).

    Joe bite me is the gift that keeps on giving. Seriously though he is a heartbeat away from the POTUS. His gaffes are beyond goofy. Is there any doubt he is wearing adult diapers, velcro sneekers on the weekend with oatmeal dribbling down his chin until someone cleans him up. Everyday they dress him up and tell him what city/planet he is in/on, sad.

      Palmer –

      To think of Joe Biden one heartbeat away from being the President of the United States is absolutely horrific. The fact that Obama has not replaced him on the ticket is, to me, just one more glaring example of how little respect Obama has for this country and the people in it.

      Everyone – just think for one second about your own work or business and ask yourself: If you had to turn your job over to someone, would it be JOE BIDEN?

      “Oh, that’s Joe” is the catch phrase that the Democrats and the Media are shoveling into conversations about Biden’s stupidity. A friend of mine said that “aw who cares it’s just Joe” to me the other day in such an offhanded way I thought he was brushing lint off his shirt rather than speaking of the Village Idiot who COULD be President. Never will I let that type of comment go by without some clock cleaning, trust me.

    Look, we all know Biden is an idiot. But anyone could have made that mistake. Could we focus on the stuff that is destroying the country, not the stuff that doesn’t matter?

    Here’s a rule of thumb: If it is something that future historians will not need to cover up, it probably isn’t worth reporting.
