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
@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? #joebiden
Whoa, ffs why is that oompa loompa standing a)in that coat b) in front of those model shots of skinny lads? I don't care what happened to him in some cheezy Hamptons nightclub, that dude is repulsive.
This is too funny, because this is PRECISELY the type of behavior one finds at The Tides, the beachfront family pub and restaurant in K's home city of Nahant, MA, where instead of like, champagne, it's Sam Lager, and you steal the pint while the real estate agent originally-from-working-class-neighbor-Lynn-but-now-from-tony-Nahant-by-way-of-association is pissing the first third of the Sam in the toilets with urinal cakes that are actually O-Cello sponges. Only to return to find you lickin' your lips over the taste 'o Koch hops. And PROPERLY kicks you out, you Nahant rich-boy cheapskate.
Quel Messy Mary. Get thee to Betty Ford, tout de suite. Spectacles are glasses one puts on one's face, not something one should make of one's self. Thieving booze, causing a scene, making your ancestors' portraits weep supernatural tears- really, is it worth it?
All Hamptons nightclubs, every single one, are flooded with the trashiest people one can imagine, and that is a fact. They're wealthy , or pretending to be, but seriously horrid and shallow people, flashing their bucks, paying like suckers to sit in some dive at $700 for a bottle of vodka minimum- frankly, they deserve every bit of the ambience people like this one supply. It's ghastly.
@phlox✔: It's all right dear, you were charming and diplomatic. The world needs more people like you. Unless you plan to be a lobbyist, in which case we need less. But you know what I mean. Cheers.

WeepyVP JoeEither 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
