Joe Biden says the darndest things.
From the infamous foul language caught by mics when the Veep introduced President Obama during a ceremony marking the signing of the president’s health care reform bill into law, that Biden dubbed “a big f–king deal.” To appearing to imitate an Indian (or as some allege a Russian) accent of a call-center worker during a speech at a jobs event in Rochester, New Hampshire, in January. To an awkward description of President Obama’s “big stick” just yesterday.
During a campaign fundraiser in Washington Friday, Biden did not disappoint those who came to see the show.
The Washington Examiner reports that during a $2500-a-head breakfast at the Fairfax hotel, the vice president told more than 200 members of the Turkish and Azerbaijani communities:
“I guess what I’m trying to say without boring you too long at breakfast – and you all look dull as hell, I might add. The dullest audience I have ever spoken to. Just sitting there, staring at me. Pretend you like me!”
According to the press pool report, the joke “drew big laughs from the crowd.” All proceeds from the event went to the Obama Victory Fund.

Is that to party with once he steals the election with voter fraud because no amount of QE will cover his second “coronation”? I guess Obama can’t cut Biden, he’s a liability if sent out on his own.

Posted on April 28, 2012 at 8:27amMarci – some of my ancestry is from Azerbaijan, from what I know it’s the first secular democracy (or democratic republic?) with a majority muslim population. Much more ethnicity-based in that regard than religion-based. Either way I find it sad they were at a fundraiser for these fools.

Posted on April 27, 2012 at 6:31pmHow does one ‘pretend to like a man” when every time I hear his voice, see his photo, or hear his name, all that comes mind is the time he was on a Senate Hearing Panel when US Marine (ret) Scott Ritter was testifying. Then Senator Biden sneered to the US Marine who gave up his career to testify about his knowledge about weapons in Iraq, “Well, ole Scotty BOY! ….“ and another question was to ask who Ritter arrived at the hearing ”by limo or did he drive himself’. When Ritter stated he drove himself then Senator Biden sniped “well why should we even listen to you if you drove yourself” (ie if you were rich and powerful he might listen to him but he had nothing but contempt for a common American). The other Senators were trying to restrain the angry Biden. It was a sight to behold!

I heard that the ANNOINTED ONE is going to be at a $4,000 per plate dinner tonight. Yet, he continuously rails against the wealthy, the only ones who can afford such a total waste of money. HOW STUPID ARE THEY? Re-elect this clown for four more years and nobody could ever afford to pay such prices because they will have paid all their assets to the government.
As far as Biden is concerned, he is the imbecillic and moronic side show. He is pitiful!!
THE AMERICAN VOTERS CAN FIX THE PROBLEM IN NOVEMBER! iF WE DON’T, AMERICA IS HISTORY!!!

I know you were not really looking for answer to that question, but for the owsers and such out there, it’s the kind of idiots that the Founding Fathers warned us about.
Even way back then they knew that for our Republic to survive, it would require a well educated, and well informed citizenry.
We got too many dummies and dead people voting.

Posted on April 27, 2012 at 6:12pmIt was breakfast, Joe. Maybe they were serving decaf coffee. More likely, they were all told to be there, and weren’t too excited about it, as you correctly reasoned. This “pretend you like me” may just be the right approach for the re-election campaign. Thing is, people stop pretending once they are ready to mark their ballot.
