    In reply to Nobody Loves Weepy VP Joe
    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

    Oh, and if you're trying to poke fun at Vice Prez Biden for weeping during the debate when he spoke about his first wife and baby daughter who died, well then, that's just messed up. #joebiden

    @Conchie Birdie: One might argue that it was the worst kind of political hackdom for him to bring them up expressly to show his "empathy" side and try to squeeze a tear out of his plastic-surgeryized eye slots. #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?

    Brian, it's a little telling that we both referred to Kristin Cavallari as a black hole in our recaps.

    I feel compelled to state, for the record, that The Hills has brought many beautiful and poetic and truthful moments to the screen, and for that, I will always love it. Its banality is what makes it so poignant and its surrealism is what makes it so entertaining. I don't feel at all defensive about my enjoyment of The Hills, but I do feel sad for people who watch the show but don't pay enough attention to appreciate those fleeting, wonderful moments of genuine emotion.

    The City is far less interesting to me, because everyone is too calculating and self-aware to allow any of those genuine moments to peek through.

    @ZakiKligmanic: Last night, I decided it was finally time to cave in to the peer pressure of the pop culture machine and finally watch an episode of this show.
    ...
    Finally, someone from The Hills had something intelligent to say.

    Hmm.

    Totally forgot to watch both last night, but I'm pretty sure I can still safely agree with this assessment. I feel a lot less embarrassed watching Whitney (and ugh, even Olivia) actually work for a living than I do watching a cast of Chiclet-teethed silicone receptacles make tens of thousands of dollars suntanning like it's their job, stopping only to make awful decisions with awful men. Not that I particularly thought LC was any shining beacon of wisdom and entertainment, but her departure seems like the perfect catalyst to finally stopping me from subjecting myself to the goop that is The Hills.
