   It appears it is not only Joe that is the gift that keeps on giving. At least we can look forward to some levity as the nation descends into this socialist nightmare. I wonder how her thighness is taking the news.

    I have said time and again that we will look back at Dubya and say “remember when we had a smart president?” As dumb as he is – and he *is* dumb – George Dubya Bush chose a man for VP with an enormous amount of knowledge about the world, our government, and the duties of the Presidency. He had spent so much time around presidents in his previous capacities as SecDef, Chief of Staff, Congressman, etc. that he knows the job cold, as much as anyone can. For SecState he chose a highly published Professor of Political Science (from Berkley and Stanford – talk about diversity) with enormous experience in foreign policy.

    President Mensa? He took two of the people who ran against him, said “they look smart-ish,” and tossed a coin.

    What an empty suit. What a complete imbecile…

    I find it interesting that ABC News leaves this part out of their report:

    “Joe had the choice to be secretary of state or vice president,” she said. Her husband turned to his wife with his finger to his lips and a “Shhhh!” that sent the audience into laughter.

    I wonder if he sushed her because it was part of a confidential conversation with Obama or because it was one of those little white lies Biden tells from time to time when he needs to feed his ravenous ego. It would seem the later is the most likely if we are to believe Biden’s own spokeswoman:

    After the exchange aired on television three hours later, Biden spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander denied Jill Biden’s account in a statement e-mailed to reporters.

    “To be clear, President-elect Obama offered Vice President-elect Biden one job only — to be his running mate,” the statement said. “And the vice president-elect was thrilled to accept the offer.”
