Don’t let it go to your head, Joe. It’s not a big f’n deal. In fact, considering how many bad decisions Obama’s made, it’s like bragging that you’re the skinniest guy on Biggest Loser.
Don’t let it go to your head, Joe. It’s not a big f’n deal. In fact, considering how many bad decisions Obama’s made, it’s like bragging that you’re the skinniest guy on Biggest Loser.
But according to our in-depth analysis, Biden truly is Obama’s single best decision, narrowly nosing out Cash-For-Clunkers and bowing to the king of Saudi Arabia.
Democrats aren’t running on the administration’s accomplishments like health-care and financial-regulatory overhaul and the stimulus because “it’s just too hard to explain,” Biden said.
No shit, Joe, no shit. We understand exactly what you mean.
Democrats aren’t running on the administration’s accomplishments like health-care and financial-regulatory overhaul and the stimulus because “it’s just too hard to explain,” Biden said. “It sort of a branding, I mean you know they kind of want the branding more at the front end.”
The branding was at the front end, Joe.
Remember “Hope and change.” Recall “The change you’ve been waiting for.” And don’t forget “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”
Unfortunately, those lines were where this administration’s accomplishments ended. And that’s why it’s tough to explain.
Now who wants to volunteer to explain that to the Vice President?

The Hill delivers the derogatory details:
Vice President Joe Biden got a laugh from his audience at a Wisconsin fundraising event Thursday when he tried to rile the crowd about the economic collapse of 2008.
“We want to reward people who manufacture things in the United States, in Wisconsin, not to take them overseas to China and to other countries!” he said to a silent room at the event for Democratic gubernatorial nominee Tom Barrett, according to a White House pool report.
The crowd didn’t erupt in spontaneous cheers for the Obama administration’s remarkable achievements in unemployment, which annoyed the gaffe-tastic vice president:
He continued, saying, “You’re the dullest audience I’ve ever spoken to,” at which point he got applause and laughs. “Do you realize how many jobs Wisconsin lost? It’s staggering!”
Yes, of course, they realize how many jobs the state lost, Joe. That’s why they didn’t cheer in the first place.
What an administration. The President reminds everyone of Jimmy Carter. And the Vice President reminds everyone of Dan Quayle.
We’re screwed.

Just a few weeks ago, President Obama and Vice President Biden foolishly began touring the country and touting what they called “Recovery Summer.” Unfortunately, the economy has refused to cooperate. And the American people are calling it the Horse Hooey Summer.

Qunnipiac University has the depressing numbers:
The U.S. remains in a recession, 79 percent of voters tell the independent Quinnipiac University poll, compared to 74 percent who felt that way in May and 71 percent who said so in May of 2008, when the economy began its slide.
American voters say 52 – 44 percent the economy is not beginning to recover. Only 23 percent say the economy is getting better, while 31 percent say it is getting worse and 44 percent see no change. In May, 32 percent of voters thought the economy was getting better, while 24 percent said it was getting worse and 43 percent saw no change.
Summer of Recovery doesn’t seem to be working. And Summer of our Discontent makes a lousy slogan.
It’s a quandrey for the President. What’s a socialist to do?

Second only to the amazing Kreskin, or maybe that Octopus who picked the World (yawn) cup winners, Joe Biden is busy peering into the future and predicting wonderful stuff for all things Democrat.
According to the website Politifi “Vice President Joe Biden brushed aside suggestions on Sunday that Democrats will suffer big losses in November mid-term Elections, vowing that Barack Obama’s governing Party will “shock the heck out of everybody”.
Of course, the free world listens breathlessly when Joe Biden speaks. We mean here is the man who reminded us that “JOBS” is a three-letter word and that you have to have a slight Indian accent to go into a Dunkin’ Donuts or a 7-11.
The article continued by saying “Speaking on the ABC News program This Week, Biden dismissed prevailing wisdom that Democrats, 17 months into Obama’s transformative residency in the White House, would suffer a drubbing at the hands of salivating Republicans. “I don’t think the losses are going to be bad at all.”
Hmmm. We will leave it up to the IHTM readers to decide who sounded less intelligent in the above paragraph – Joe Biden for his idiotic statement or Politifi for saying “Obama’s transformative residency in the White House.”

“After Delaware, Portland’s my favorite state,” Joe Biden responded. “Rains too much for my taste, but they have a damn fine governor out there. God love him.”
According to the Associated Press,”Police in the US state of Portland are reopening an investigation into an Oregon massage therapist’s allegations that former vice-president Al Gore groped her at an upscale hotel in 2006.”
“After Delaware, Portland’s my favorite state,” Joe Biden responded. “Rains too much for my taste, but they have a damn fine governor out there. God love him.”
NOTE: Joe didn’t really say that. We made it up, but it sure sounds like something he would say if asked.

Scott Borkin is one lucky man. The owner of the Milwaukee area frozen custard shop who looked Joe Biden in the eye and said, “Lower our taxes” was damn lucky Biden didn’t go all ninja on him.
Borkin obviously forgot President Obama’s warning back in February, 2009, that “Nobody messes with Joe.”
The garrulous Veep ordered a custard and when he asked the how much he owed, the owner answered, “Nothing, just lower our taxes.” A few minutes laer, Biden sought out the manager and said, “If I say something nice, you don’t have to be a smartass.”
Joe Biden hit the campaign trail in Wisconsin Friday to campaign with Wisconsin Democrat Senator Russ Feingold. Between appearances, the duo stopped to sweeten their beaks at Kopp’s Frozen Custard in Glendale, Wisconsin.

Dolce & Gabbana has nothing on Biden & Pelosi when it comes to the latest fashions. The Vice President and the Speaker of the House are now sporting colorful new bracelets to protest Arizona’s anti-illegal alien law.
Dolce & Gabbana has nothing on Biden & Pelosi when it comes to the latest fashions. The Vice President and the Speaker of the House are now sporting colorful new bracelets to protest Arizona’s anti-illegal alien law.
HotAir.com explains that this new liberal fashion trend was developed by California Democrat Congressman Joe Baca:
As part of his general boycott of Arizona — which includes his refusal to fly through Phoenix on his weekly trips to and from Washington — Baca, D-Rialto, is distributing wristbands inspired by the Lance Armstrong LiveSTRONG craze.
Baca put in an order for 2,500 of his version, which will be red, yellow and blue — the colors of Arizona’s flag — to be worn as a show of solidarity against the controversial law…In Washington, Baca has gotten House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and most members of the Democratic leadership to wear them, as they did — along with golfing legend Chi Chi Rodriguez — at a recent fundraiser for Baca. Baca said his office is fielding calls from people inquiring how they can get one of the wristbands.
“Everyone wants them,” Baca said. “They’re going like hot potatoes.”
And that, Joe, is what you call a Freudian slip. We’re pretty sure Baca meant to say, “They’re going like hot cakes” because the definition of a hot potato is “A problem that is so controversial or sensitive that those handling it risk unpleasant consequences.”
With every poll showing overwhelming support for the Arizona law, these stupid wrist bands are definitely hot potatoes.

Holy friggin’ moly. Joe Biden never ceases to amaze. He’s the kind of politician who gives politicians a bad name. Here he is kissing the asses of European bureaucrats by telling them that Brussels – yes, Brussels – is the capitol of the free world. And we quote:
Holy friggin’ moly. Joe Biden never ceases to amaze. He’s the kind of politician who gives politicians a bad name.
Here he is kissing the asses of European bureaucrats by telling them that Brussels – yes, Brussels – is the capitol of the free world. And we quote:
“As you probably know, ladies and gentlemen, not only am I pleased to be back here in Brussels for the second time as vice president. As you probably know, some American politicians and American journalists refer to Washington, DC as the ‘capitol of the free world.’ But it seems to me that in this great city, which boasts 1000 years of history and which serves as the capital of Belgium and the home of the European Union and the headquarters for NATO, this city has its own legitimate claim to that title.”
And, of course, Biden has a point. The Brusselonians are famous for shedding their blood to defend the free world. One simply cannot think of the word freedom without thinking, “What’s that city in Belgium that’s synonymous with freedom?”
At least the moron didn’t bow to anyone. Not on camera, anyway.
Damn straight it’s a big f-ing deal. The introduction of Elena Kagan as Obama’s latest Supreme Court nominee was the first time Joe Biden’s been allowed back in public since the day the President signed the ObamaCare bill.

The Los Angeles Times reports the story:
U.S. troops marched through Red Square for the first time in a Victory Day parade on Sunday as Russia celebrated the 65th anniversary of the end of World War II.
It was a scene cut from Russia’s Cold War nightmares: 71 Americans in dark blue dress uniforms carried the U.S. flag over the cobblestones, past the mausoleum of Vladimir Lenin and the towers of the Kremlin wall to salute Russian leaders.
The Guardian UK reports the disinvitation of Vice President Biden.
Vladimir Putin has snubbed both the Prince of Wales and the US vice-president, Joe Biden, by refusing to allow them to attend a parade in Red Square marking the 65th anniversary of the end of the second world war, the Guardian has learned.
Russia invited Gordon Brown and other heads of state to attend the Kremlin’s celebrations on Sunday – the biggest ever. But with the prime minister unable to attend because of the general election, the Foreign Office suggested Prince Charles instead.
What’s the reaction in the White House to the snub?
The White House is privately furious at the snub. Barack Obama told Russia’s president, Dmitry Medvedev, he was unable to attend but had confidently offered Biden as his replacement. Moscow’s diplomatic corps has been abuzz all week with news of Putin’s unexpected veto.
And Biden’s reaction?
“March in Red Square? Stupid Russians. That was two months ago.”

Joe Biden is the perfect liberal. His 2009 tax return shows that he’s a lot more generous with other people’s money than he is with his own.
WhiteHouse.gov reports the details of the cheap Veep’s lack of charity:
The Vice President and Dr. Jill Biden also released their 2009 federal income tax returns, as well as state income tax returns for both Delaware and Virginia. They filed joint federal and Delaware income tax returns. Dr. Biden filed a separate non-resident tax return for the state of Virginia. Together, they reported an adjusted gross income of $333,182. The Bidens paid $71,147 in federal income taxes for 2009. They paid $12,420 in Delaware income taxes and $1,477 in Virginia income taxes. The Bidens contributed $4,820 to charity, in both monetary and in-kind donations.
$4,820 is paltry enough based on Biden’s income. But note the words “in-kind” in that paragraph. That undoubtedly means that instead of donating cash, Biden loaded up a truckload of old shoes and a pile of his unsold and uninteresting books and took them down to his local Goodwill office.
Do as Biden says, not as Biden does.

After running through a laundry list of wealth distribution programs, Biden finally gets into his definition of socialism.
Task: What do you think of the charge that this is a redistribution of wealth? Even the New York Times, famously liberal, said, “The Health Care bill is the federal government’s biggest attack on economic inequality since inequality began rising more than three decades ago.”
Biden: Look, It’s a simple proposition to us: Everyone is entitled to adequate medical health care … If you call that a ‘redistribution of income’ — well, so be it. I don’t call it that. I call it just being fair — giving the middle class taxpayers an even break that the wealthy have been getting … Taxes have been lowered for the wealthy considerably over the years. It’s about time we get a little tax equity here.
You call it socialism, Joe Biden calls is fairness. You call Joe Biden a Marxist, we call him a Leninist.

1. Obama smiles broadly.
2. Biden drops the f-bomb.
3. Smile suddenly disappears from Obama’s face.
4. Obama wonders to himself, “What was I thinking when I chose this moron?”
We’ve been wondering the same thing, Mr. President.
You’ve surely read the story of Joe Biden leaning over to President Obama and saying, “This is f@ckin’ big” during Tuesday’s ObamaCare signing ceremony. But c’mon, man, this is Joe Biden. The man is too big to screw up just once a day.

Top of the Ticket reveals Joe’s other special moment:
Biden is fond of quoting poets in public, usually Irish ones and often in the Mideast for some reason. But today the man who was a senator while Obama was in the sixth grade chose another nationality.
Here’s what he said, according to the White House transcript:
As I said just before the president signed the healthcare bill, I quoted Virgil, the classic Greek poet, who once said, ‘The greatest wealth is health.’ The greatest wealth is health. Mr. President, you’ve made us a nobler and wealthier nation by providing for the health of your fellow citizens.
Here’s the problem, as loyal Ticket reader Mike points out:
Virgil wasn’t Greek. He was Roman. Very Roman. So Roman, in fact, that the author (70 BC-19 BC) of the “Aeneid,” among other famous works, is buried in Naples.
“Stand up, Virgil, let ‘em see you. Oh, what am I talking about?”
