Smirky loses control of his mouth again: “I shouldn’t be going off like this.”

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 3, 2008 10:56 PM


Heartbeat away…

There are a thousand and one good reasons I call Joe Biden “the increasingly erratic, super-gaffetastic Joe Biden” (link).

Here’s the 1,002nd reason, via FoxNews.com:

“Hey folks, 37 more hours!”

Joe Biden greeted a crowd primed for the home stretch of this long campaign with as much energy as he’s had in the last two months on the trail as well as some typical Bidenese.

Telling voters in this swing state that “change is on the way,” the Democratic vice presidential candidate offered one of his now-expected random introductory tangents.

The latest was about his sister, Val, his wife Jill, and Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill, who introduced the Bidens at the rally of 1,100 people in the gym at Longview Community College.

Biden called his sister a “girl-boy,” meaning a tomboy, and then explained that girl-boys are softer than “girl-girls.”

“You know why I think Jill likes Claire McCaskill so well, Senator McCaskill? Jill is one of five sisters, Claire is one of three sisters. And I tell you what, you women raised with sisters are different than women raised with brothers,” Biden said as both women joined him on stage.

“My sister is smart, runs every one of my campaigns; is beautiful; graduated with honors from college; is homecoming queen. But she’s a … she is what I call a ‘girl-boy’ growing up, you know what I mean?”

“And I tell you what? Girl-girls are tougher than girl-boys,” he said. “But there’s one important thing I noticed.The great thing about marrying into a family with five sisters, there’s always one that loves you. ‘Cause you can count on splitting them a bit. You know what I mean?

“I shouldn’t be going off like this, but — hey, folks, 37 more hours, 37 more hours,” he then said.

What the…???

It’s all so mortifying and yet, the idea of Obama being chained to this fellow gaffe machine for four years would at least be some small consolation…

Don’t worry, Messiah. Remember: It’s not diarrhea of the mouth. Just “rhetorical flourishes.”

    As impossible as this sounds, it’s true. I have a friend, who I converted to Conservative (Yay me!) whose parents were for Hillary, and said they’d never vote for Obama. BUT, apparently their first choice was actually Biden so now they are voting for the ticket…

    It took three years to convert the son from their lunatic views. I almost had another friend converted, but he went back to the dark side. Oh my… was that RAAAAAAAAAAAACIST? It wasn’t when I typed it, but no doubt my subconscious, latent RAAAAACISM forced it way out!

    Anyway, he went back to the dark side because we lost contact for almost a year, and now that he and his family is back here, it’s just too late for this election. So close though…

    You must have missed the last issue of Time ragazine. The cover story: “7 THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG ON ELECTION DAY.” In light of the ACORN investigations in a dozen states, 200K questionable registrants in Ohio that the Dem SoS fought not to take action against, cartoon characters and football players being signed up half a country away from their homes, and a pro-Baracko Marx website instructing people how to actually fraudulently vote using vacant houses as false addresses, you would think there would be something about that stuff on the cover.

    But nooooo. What’s there instead is … a Diebold voting machine!

    What??? No…I don’t know what you mean. In fact, I would bet dollars to doughnuts that those looks you were receiving by every single person in that room, including the very ones you were speaking about, were telling you that absolutely NO ONE in that entire place had the foggiest idea what the hell you were talking about.

    Just what is it, exactly, you are insinuating there, Joe Everyman? What does “Splitting” them mean? Are you suggesting that you were doing some sort of perverted switcheroo with your wife and all her sisters? Are we now to assume that you have absolutely no morals and are able to sleep with any and all of your sister-in-laws? Is that what you mean by always someone loving you and splitting them?

    What a sick and twisted individual he is.

    And how did he cover this up? By sounding like Cal Naughton Jr., “Oh never mind, 37 more hours, 37 more hours until Shake and Bake. Woo hoo! Thank you precious baby Jesus, all laying there in your gold diaper and all. Shake and Bake. Shake and bake. Yee haw!!”

    What an absolute a$$. He must be a Senator. No one in the private sector would want to hire anyone this fantastically bigotted and backwards.

    At the top of their ticket is The One who contantly considers ‘what am I saying here?’ — where he is speaking. The other guy cluelessly glances back at a political railroad system strewn with his verbal train wrecks and wonders, “What just happened?” before mindlessly moving on to the next disaster.

    No worries though. The lib media joyfully calls no attention to The Ones message shape shifts. His is also their message; no sense in confusing their mutual, target audience with the quite intended discrepanices of the moment. Conversely, they keep old newspapers or first drafts at hand for every “…up Chuck” spewn to use as sickness bags and disposed of, lest they contaminate The One’s chance of election.

    If Obama wins, I won’t worry over Biden. He’ll be the VP, in an office that has no power. As President of the Senate, he can’t debate or vote (unless there is a tie). With democratic control, I doubt any tie. He can’t set policy or decide what to vote on, or what to keep in committee. Obama will probably ignore him. It was a stupid decision for Biden to give up an important senate position, to run for VP. He can only sit and wait for the “messiah” to die.
