    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?

    If I could score that tail, I wouldn't lie about it. I'd be jumping on Oprah's couch about it.


    I do take issue with one thing, though: I think that American's are smart enough to know that we're all unique.


    Improper use of an apostrophe makes me homicidal. As Madame might say at Julius, "Remove the bitch!"

    I always side with whoever's supposed to have a higher standard. I was expected to have one back in the day. An older woman already well along my intended career path told me I should never date (that anyone would find out about), always be best at everything and never complain.
    Turned out the career path got boring after about two years anyway, even when I wasn't following their stupid rules.

    The fact that he chose to tell his story to Out just kills it for me. He could not have picked a skeezier magazine without needing an opaque polybag. Mr. Hydroceph (perhaps i should say, the other Mr. Hydroceph since WE'RE GAY...sorry, people don't seem to get that) for some reason gets Out w/o subscribing to it, and we have to throw it out immediately lest our son start asking awkward questions: "Daddy, what's a circuit queen?"

    (The 'queen' part is probably self explanatory, unless you're the straightest man in America. Then again, I guess the straightest man in America wouldn't be posting on Gawker.)

    @whupassmaster: Out sets the trends that very narrow and non-representative section of the gay community follows--label whores, consumers of party drugs, sluts. The rest of us? not so much.


    OK, so it's judgmental. I hate Out and all it stands for.
