In China, Joe Biden Shared His Secrets to Succinct Communication
**Written by Doug Powers
When Sheriff Joe starts imparting his “effective communication” wisdom to a captive audience overseas, you know it’s going to be good.
From Terry Jeffrey at CNS News, here’s the meat of Biden’s summing up of the importance of brevity and clarity in public speaking:
“And so language, the ability not only to master the ability to put your ideas into words succinctly on a platform to communicate ideas to your own people, it is even more impressive when you have the capacity to do that and communicate your ideas, especially as future business and political and moral leaders of the world in the language of the people to whom you are speaking.”
Here’s the video, just in case any of you want to share it with a friend you’d like to help become a better communicator:
Biden has now proven himself worthy of guest-hosting the now permanently scheduled “Resist We Much Comedy Hour” on MSNBC.
Another secret Biden shared with the Chinese leadership is that, in the American vocabulary, “fully understand” and “I’m not second guessing” translates to “I find it repugnant.” No wonder English is such a tough language to learn.

And to think his oratory fame began with a three letter word: “J O B S”.
And just think, Joe was chosen as he had all the foreign relations experience.
*He won’t be on the ticket for 2012; P-BO needs a boost, not a boat anchor!
wow, and he even had a teleprompter. looks like he needs to see professor obama, at his class on telepromters for idiots. among his former studets is al sharpton.
who won’t be on the ticket, plugs, or teh won?
To think we will be deprived of his wit, wisdom and intelligence after 2012. Such tragedy.
/sarc off
“…….especially as future business and political and moral leaders of the world in the language of the people to whom you are speaking.”……………… SAN DIMAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RULES!
*Plugs, or Anchor Joe as we like to call him here in Tennessee; P-BO will have to shake things up, and Joe will become expendable.
It’s been said in polite company that Biden has an economy with words. Apparently it is patterned after his economy with our money.
Is it just an optical illusion or are those teleprompters facing the wrong way?
P Phil #10,
It`s what I like to call, an “Optical Delusion” !
“And, dude, did you ever think that our whole universe might be just a tiny molecule inside the intestine of another creature, which itself is part of a larger universe inside the……….whoa! Man, am I hungry!”
Ogre: What if uh C-A-T really spelled dog?
Biden’s confusion is due to the mix up between his telelprompter and TOTUS. If his teleprompter had been there, instead of TOTUS, the speech would have been:
Lord, if I was in any way connected to the Anointed One’s administration, I would be just COMPLETELY embarassed by this pitiful excuse for a man….
One would think that the leaders we chose for president and vice president would be the best America had to offer.
You look at these two charlatans and you just have to shake your head is disgust.
My how this wonderful country has fallen.
Either we must utterly defeat the Marxists in our government or watch as we become a totalitarian state.
I’m going to miss this country.
Not everything and everyone is a Marxist, your constant Marxist cry is getting old..
Holy Crap. What a moron.
What an embarrassment
I think when the Chinese presented him the bill for his dinner, they refused his credit card. Although he claimed to represent the United States, the hosts said that the American credit was even worse.
So Plugs was given the choice to pay for his supper…he could entertain the other diners or work in the kitchen. After this performance, the Chinese have given Joe an apron for his next meal.
Biden was a brilliant pick for VP.
He’s guarranteed insurance against a$$assination.
NOBODY would want this clown to be president.
Dear God….
Is there anybody here who can translate that babble into English?
Biteme: Hey Hop Sing, WTF? I thought you said with six I get eggroll?!
Agent Smith: Tell me, Mr. Biden, what good is a phone call when you are unable to speak?
LOLOL
Send in the clowns.
Whaaaaat??
or… ‘Optional Conclusion’
‘Just words, just speeches‘ Barack Obama
Clear as mud.
The Vice President appeaser to have engaged in too many vices to be effective any longer.
You remind me of an episode of Twilight Zone where the camera pans out from a street scene to the earth, solar system, then the universe and the next pan back is of a speck of dust on a policeman’s badge. Pretty heavy stuff for a young teenaged mind… better’n trippin’ on acid (safer too)
“You’all done ejaculated a mouthful.”
- Moe (UNCIVIL WAR BIRDS, 1946)
Matter of fact, sometimes I think we ARE in the Twilight Zone, or someone spike the city water supply with LSD! (come to think of it)
Hey Chief! Welcome aboard!
That’s the problem, clowns were all we had to send.
Wha…? Does he even know he is speaking in Doubletalk? This guy is a living breathing case study in abject stupidity. The Chinese must be laughing their as*es off.
So, what here the problem is? It should be perfectly clean the vase president’s vernacular establishes a convulsation rife with idiotmatic wisdom for to the engagement of libertarious locution perspiring the students in their utilization of voluminous verbiage to mesmerize masses. Or something.
OOOPPs wrong word use appears vice appeaser.
Wait, a quick check of Dictionary, and on second thought maybe is appeaser is appropriate.
Biteme: Bilateral relations? Of course, I know of which I speak. Why I’m the byproduct of bilateral relations. When my mother had bilateral relations with her first cousin…yada yada yada.
Yep, they’re laughing their asses off and asking themselves “Really? Are these really the people that flew to the moon and are now orbiting the earth, really?”
Biteme: “And so language, the ability not only to master the ability to put your ideas into a veritable cornucopia of cacaphonius choral cadences, allows you to acquire mass quantities of bloviating argot.”
I think he had bilateral relations mixed up with San Fran style relations.
You had it right the first time, Chief
The feelings Biden’s quote evokes, amusing it is to a fashion that he tried to make the point about being an effective and succinct public speaker by running many disjointed phrases together in some sort of way that said nothing but made sense to him must have been frustrating to the unfortunate interpreter assigned to interpret Biden’s words into Chinese, befuddling Americans and the British and other English-speaking listeners, it is embarrassing that this person is supposed to represent us before the rest of the world busy chowder hippopotamus.
In other words—oy.
If only the question was, “How do you spell ‘potato’?” It would have saved some time (maybe), and the left would’ve had a field day replaying that sound bite over and over.
Way to represent America, Joe.
Obama sure picked a real winner there.
This delusional clown still thinks he won the debate with Sarah Palin. Poor Joe. He doesn’t realize how stupid he really is. Or maybe that’s a mercy.
No accountin’ for intelligence either. Brevity is the soul of wit. (as Rush keeps saying)
On the other hand, being a witless twit makes Plugs the way he is. Diarrhea of the mouth comes to mind.
The only meaningful question at this point is “Will we miss him”?
This was, without a doubt, THE perfect comment.
Speaking of orbiting the earth; how about the Russian space program and the explosion of the rocket intended to take supplies to the space station. Don’t we all feel great now that we no longer have a viable space program to transport people and supplies to the space station?
I feel sorry for anyone left up there depending on Russia for supplies and rescue.
I’m not sure we should depend on sending our people up on a Russian missile especially at a cost of 50 million a pop and they can’t reach orbit altitude. (Sorry, Joe Biteme moment)
It still amazes me that they let this guy out of the White house basement!
If I were stranded up in that thing I would be looking to get back ASAP. I’d feel like I was trapped in a cage with an MMA fighter. Great googely moogely.
This goes to show you that the Presidency really is a big ‘effing deal, to borrow a phrase from our esteemed VP. As if we hadn’t already figured that out.
You know Oblamer has to cringe every time Joe gets in front of a microphone.
Not at all…..every time Joe opens his mouth, it confirms the reason Joe was handpicked for VP….the Pretender in Chief doesn’t want anyone to even appear more brilliant by comparison than he. Smarter people tend to diminish the glow of his aura.
!
Nope. He has his own personal basement in the VP quarters. He’s only allowed in the WH when necessary and under adult supervison.
You’re so right! I forget; does the highlighted part rhyme with ‘dough’ or ‘plough’?
Neither, it’s trough.
“she said ‘you must not say ‘pluff’ you must say ‘plow”…
…I said I’m sorry; I have a hacking ‘cow’…”
–Benny Hill
lol. Good one!
mouse = mice
house = hice?
This is all a clever strategy by the White House.
Make the Chinese think that our leaders are incompetent and stupid,
and then…er…um…..
Nevermind.
Its Booooshs fault and Joe is just now recovering.
哈哈 – 它们燃烧像祝酒!
VPTOTUS – is dyslexic. Fortunately Biden can only read backwards. It all evens out.
I thought NASA’s mission was to educate muslims on the way infidels have heated the planet to extinction. Or something.
Years ago the Russians had a manned spy satellite buzzing the earth and lost power for – hmm I forget, a couple of days maybe – but by the time they got them down, one of their Cosmonauts had lost his mind. Ok the details are hazy…
HA!
Needed that laugh.
So Biteme was a Cosmonaut?
No, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
I didn’t see any video or hear any commentary regarding the reaction of the audience to Joe the Idiot’s speech. I am sure there was a lot of throwing up going on, but well, since it’s Biden and NOT BUSH, that cannot be reported.
That headline should read: In China, Joe Biden Shared his Secrets to Suck-Up Communication.
“Mr. Gorbachev — I don’t want to second-guess your purpose for this wall, but it seems to be an economic disadvantage.”
Aren’t we all glad that the Ron was nothing like the Plagiarer.
So, did he have another Mental slip and think he was Reagan…
