Biden Express: When Your Get-Well Card to a Saudi King Absolutely Positively Has to be There Overnight

Saudi King Abdullah bravely shunned the vastly superior universal healthcare system in his home country in order to come to the United States for medical treatment. Now he’s recovering in his own wing of the hospital and administration officials are being dispatched to make sure he’s enjoying his stay.

All this time we were told that Barack Obama was “the deliverer,” but it was Joe Biden all along:

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Vice President Joe Biden paid an unannounced visit Wednesday to the family of Saudi King Abdullah at the New York hospital where he is recuperating from back surgery, the White House said

“During his visit with King Abdullah’s family, the vice president delivered a personal letter from President Obama for the king, wishing him a speedy recovery,” it said in a statement.

My guess is that the “letter” was an Obamacare waiver. No doubt an FTD Pick-Me-Up Bowquet was among the deliveries as well.

    Odd – no one else on earth has ever gotten anything “personal” from Obama. Well, I don’t know what goes on at Man Country though…

    Possibly clueless Joe could give the Saudi King some tasteful Holiday gifts to cheer him up.

    How about a Happy Hanukkah card or a Christmas card with a manger scene? Or possibly a great meal would help–pulled pork?

    Or maybe a plastic magnetic base statue of Comrade Obama for his Rolls-Royce dashboard.

    When you care to send the very best–send Joe.

    I wonder how bad off the King is…..

    Usually they send the VP to state funerals. Maybe Biden’s just getting a head start.

    Joe probably took him a Subway sammich since he heard the King say “Salami, I Like’em” once.

    People won’t be coming here for medical care after Owebowmaocare takes hold.
