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
@A Pimp Named DaveR: I personally liked seeing Pam go ballistic for a change. Mostly, she was weepy, mopey, meloncholy but never flat out irate. That was refreshing.
I'm not sure that the concept was ever "taboo," unless the idea that a woman who might be in her 30s (I refer to milfs in general) could be considered hot was ever taboo. #theoffice
@magnets: Thanks for your helpful feedback. The new guy shows up, you call him a chum-bucket? You can't offer some sort of helpful advice? You can't smile thinking about an attractive oversexed elder, as recycled as the concept might be? I don't like you "magnets." You're on my list. #theoffice
I am so confused by this post. Who's "MILF hunting" on The Office? Michael dating Pam's mom not because she's a mom but because she's a woman of approximately his age. In fact, every woman Michael has dated on the show, with the exception of Holly, has at least one child. Seriously, where did this come from? #theoffice
@DahlELama: (I'd answer, but honestly I had to read it twice just to figure out what it said. I'm not yet ready to move on to ascribing meaning.) #theoffice

Besides, the bible has people named Ham and Nimrod.
On top of this, the Mormons believe that Joseph Smith received the text of the Book of Mormon on golden tablets delivered by an angel named Moroni.

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
