    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?

    Better Know a District is always the best part of this show. I loved the Eleanor Holmes Norton ones, when he asked her why she was undressing him with her eyes.

    I watched the Freshman Year series on CNN.com with Congressmen Polis and Chaffetz and they were both pretty funny guys, though I agree with few of Chaffetz's political opinions.

    Funny segment. Teabag jokes never shrivel up.

    Anything that focuses attention on the fact that we still have troops in harm's way is good. He's a good egg.

    There's a special place in hell for those who pretend blatant self-promotion is "entertaining the troops."


    Add "one-trick pony" to Colbert's list of sins and I'd say he's damned to an eternity of late night at basic cable.

    @Frecklepup: Bob Hope aired his USO shows too -- they just didn't have the tech to do it instantly, like Colbert.


    Looks like he put on a show that the troops are enjoying. Add that to the Iraq-centric Newsweek he "guest edited" and the constant fundraising for military causes, and your claim what he's just doing this for publicity comes across as rather hollow.

    it's inspiring to watch this. reminds me of how many kids are still over there, and the depth of their commitment to being of service. and kudos to colbert for bringing home to them.
