    Biden was the most inscrutable choice, ever, for VP. Instead of "change" Obama brought out an old hack, who had trouble with both truth telling, even during the campaign, and with inserting his foot into his mouth. Oh, to know what kind of negotiation that was, to get him on the ticket---except, perhaps to allay terrified old white guys who feared a woman and a (half)black man on the ticket would bring on the apocalypse. #joebiden

    apparently I am in the minority, but I love Joe Biden! I think he's like the lovable Steve Urkel of the White House. He comes in, says stupid stuff, knocks shit over, and is like "Did I do that?" Oh Joe. #joebiden

    Joe Biden is everything thats wrong and fucked up with congress. This dope won his seat in the Senate when he was 29 and has never had another job until being VP. He has learned about as much about how the country works from his perch in DC as Palin learned about Russia from staring at it. He is walking proof we need term limits.

    And he doesn't drink. I don't trust people who don't drink, unless they've already been alcoholics. #joebiden

    Why is it that I feel compelled to defend Gawker's subject matter against the editors/writers at least once a day lately?

    Either this new crop of staff writers is utterly fucked, or the editorial direction has taken a nosedive, or both.

    Is there some negative correlation between the quality of stories and the quality of AJAX/CSS? #joebiden

    @Motoko Kusanagi: From where I'm standing, it would appear to be a positive correlation. It's a good day when I get tripped up by fewer than five unresponsive scripts, infinite waits for comments to load or what have you. #joebiden

    @Motoko Kusanagi: Oh yeah, I didn't mean to quibble. I agree that the site gets fancier all the time, but features seem to break often. I should have added before that it could well be my OS and browser causing headaches most readers don't experience. And in all fairness, I haven't been reading long enough to judge contemporary content against the past. #joebiden

    Not sure what point you're trying to make, Amrita... that you think Cheney's worldview makes some sense? That Cheney was initially popular, before everything he did brought his popularity rating to a low of 28%? I love it that Biden is willing to call a moron a moron. This is a ridiculous post. #joebiden

    I'm absolutely NOT a supporter of ANYTHING Dick says... but, Good Lawwd, Biden, Bin Laden will always BE a part of the issue. I'm sorry, I guess if you had the prez saying this I could understand... but, uh, Joe? Nope.

    That being said, why are we posting crap from Fox News anyway - I thought we weren't supposed to take this stuff seriously?

    This meme begs the question: can we get some disrespect for the President of the United States up in this bitch? Not that I don't think Barry Obama's doing an okay job and all, but he's just so godlike and serious and sometimes you just need a hipster cokehead to level the playing field a little and give you a laugh at the expense of the prez/serious political peeps from Washington DC. #cocaine

    @MissNormaDesmond: Yeah, it is dismal and pathetic. At least Will Self was was roughed up for shooting heroin on Tony Blair's aeroplane. It's really unfunny, smug, and a bid for some unearned cred for unproved "daring". I doubt the bald wimp actually did it.

    And hey to Online Persona - starting your own blog has never been easier! Go write all your disrespect up in there! That no one will ever read. Or just go to FOX, for fuck's sake, if disrespecting "Barry' is what you're after. If you cannot find the massive disrespect for Obama that clearly exists on the Internet elsewhere, you're frankly an idiot. #cocaine

    The background: 80s teen punk fans created 90s zine culture, which evolved into hipster websites and glossies (Vice, The Gawkersphere, McSweeney's, Believer), providing a spotlight for gracelessly aging Gen X (I know Xers - like me - hate the term, which is why I use it) comics like Cross, huckster 'artists' like St. Dash Snow, and the boho boutique adaptation of Where The Wild Things Are.

    Hoax or not, the Portland-Williamsburg ViceMag beardo d-bag axis has jumped the snark (not a typo) with Cross' Obama-defiling toot. #cocaine
