Biden, although a bit dimwitted and always good for a laugh, actually tends to tell the truth from time to time, which is not always a good thing.

I was taught that honesty is the best policy, and in most circumstances, that is the case.  However, politics is an entirely different situation, especially when dealing with a foreign country.  Politicians have to be more cognizant of not only what they say but when they say it.

So, although Biden was correct in his assessment of Iran’s election results, his candid statement today regarding the validity of the election was probably not the smartest thing to say.  I’m sure Obama is not that happy about this:

Vice President Joe Biden, going further than any other high-ranking American official to date in questioning the validity of last Friday’s election, said Sunday that “there’s some real doubt” that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was legitimately re-elected as president of Iran.

It’s also interesting that on the same day as Biden’s statement, the European Union exclaims the following:

The Presidency of the Council of the EU closely followed the course of the Presidential elections held on 12 June 2009 and notices Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was re-elected for the second term as the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The Presidency is concerned about alledged irregularities during the election process and post-electional violence that broke out immediately after the release of the official election results on 13 June 2009.

The Presidency hopes that outcome of the Presidential elections will bring the opportunity to resume the dialogue on nuclear issue and clear up Iranian position in this regard. The Presidency expects the new Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran will take its responsibility towards international community and respect its international obligations.

The EU, in essence, is recognizing the legitimacy of the Iranian elections and the new administration of Ahmadinejad.  However, it calls the protests irregular, not Ahmadinejad’s win.  This is one of the reasons I don’t ever want America compared to Europe – we are much better.

Biden may not have been politically correct and may have upset his boss, but I happen to personally agree with him on this one.  This is technically a gaffe, because Obama has not come out in support of Biden’s statement or opinion on this issue.  Obama, being the Commander in Chief is Joe Biden’s boss and should speak out on Iran’s election first.  A politician has to always watch what he or she says… something that Biden has long forgotten how to do.  If we find that yet again this administration contradicts itself by saying two different things, it certainly looks bad and shows a real lack of knowledge and/or leadership on how to manage a country.

The individual that we should be most concerned about is Obama – when will he say anything definitive about Iran?

We have two classic Joe Biden moments from today!

Not only does Joe Biden make fun of Obama for his security blanket, the TelePrompTer, but he also states that their administration should not be blamed for any GDP growth… wait – WHAT!? LOL!

I think that Goofy Joe doesn’t understand basic English – I believe he made up some words in this next speech about economic growth, which he contradicts, because we all know that a green economy is not a productive one… And remember don’t judge him on GDP growth that doesn’t matter!

He does it again; Opens mouth, inserts foot!

Biden, when speaking and taking questions at his recent Kosovo excursion, was asked about the closing of Guantanamo:

So will Obama fulfill his vow – announced amid great fanfare in an executive order on day two of his presidency – to close the facility by January 2010? “I think so,” Biden responded, according to Newsweek’s Holly Bailey.

So perhaps he will. Or perhaps not. We’ll see.

Biden continued: “But, look, what the president said is that this is going to be hard. It’s like opening Pandora’s Box. We don’t know what’s inside the box.”

He also said that “to the best of my knowledge” the number of prisoners “who are a real danger who are not able to returned or tried” has “not been established” by the Obama administration.

So he basically just confirmed his predecessor Dick Cheney’s analysis that the decision was taken “with little deliberation, and no plan”.

BWAHAHAHA! I have to wonder if he is doing this on purpose… I did happen to hear that there is quite a bit of tension between POTUS and VPOTUS.

As another example, it would seem that Biden likes Palin more than Obama or at least he is definitely smitten by her:

After noting that the Alaska National Guard gave him a copy of its patch, the Veep moved on to Gov. Sarah Palin.

“Where the hell were you when I was debating Sarah Palin?” Biden said. “I could have used this patch. When she said, ‘Can I call you Joe?’ I’d say, ‘Sure, if you wear your patch.’ By the way, she’s quite a lady — and I mean that sincerely.”

Biden truly is the gift that keeps on giving and the poor old man just can’t keep his mouth shut.  I wonder if they make Pepto-Bismol for oral diarrhea ~ the least he could do is strap a diaper to his face…

Vice President Joe Biden, well-known for his verbal gaffes, may have finally outdone himself, divulging potentially classified information meant to save the life of a sitting vice president.

According to a report, while recently attending the Gridiron Club dinner in Washington, an annual event where powerful politicians and media elite get a chance to cozy up to one another, Biden told his dinnermates about the existence of a secret bunker under the old U.S. Naval Observatory, which is now the home of the vice president.

The bunker is believed to be the secure, undisclosed location former Vice President Dick Cheney remained under protection in secret after the 9/11 attacks.

As if endangering his own life wasn’t enough to make a joke about his predecessor (sometimes liberals are so daft because they are so intent on blaming and demonizing everyone else – they forget about common decency and common sense), he has also endangers America’s foreign relations.  The Balkan states have dredged up old interviews and records that prove Biden has said some very demeaning and inflammatory things about Serbians, etc.  This is coming out due to a recent trip that has been scheduled for Biden to go to the region to “reset” tiesto the Balkan States (many are protesting the visit).

On the occasion of the announced Belgrade visit of the U.S. vice president Joseph Biden, one of the most virulent Serbophobes in Washington, representatives of the Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) and New Serbia (NS) today submitted to the Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs a set of documents containing records of Biden’s racist anti-Serbian slurs and insults.

DSS Parliament representative Jovan Palalić told gathered reporters that submitted documents are a reminder of the things current American vice president and former senator was saying and of the vicious crusade he relentlessly lead against Serbian nation and state.

The records include Biden’s unforgettable appearance on CNN’s Larry King Live, when he said that “Serbs are illiterate degenerates, baby killers, butchers and rapists”, his assertion during Senatorial deliberations in 1999 over NATO aggression against Serbia that “all Serbs should be placed in Nazi-style concentration camps” and other equally unforgivable outbursts of hatred and malice.

While advocating a “unified Bosnia”, without the Serb Republic and dominated by Izetbegovic’s and Silajdzic’s cutthroats, amputation of the cradle of Serbian state — Kosovo and Metohija province — and then an indivisible “Kosovo state” with “inviolable borders”, at the same time Biden also promoted dismemberment of Iraq and its division into three states.

“We are convinced that Biden’s statements and policies are entirely contrary to the interests of Serbia and Serbian people,” Palalić said, adding that Biden’s bellicose hatred of Serbs “culminated in the bombardment of Serbia and was crowned by the illegal secession and declaration of independence of the fake state of Kosovo”.

“His meeting with Serbian officials will most probably be punctuated with the new pressures on our state, urging Serbia to establish ‘good neighborly relations’ with the fake state, weakening the institutions of Republic of Srpska [Bosnia-Herzegovina], as well as pushing Serbia to renege on its military neutrality and to begin the process of joining NATO pact”, Palalić said.

I realize that many will request proof of such unbelievable words from even Biden’s mouth, so here is a video that is not all that inflammatory but certainly makes some offensive remarks and inaccurate historical statements towards the Serbs as well as the war criminal who sits beside Biden…

I have to sometimes wonder whether or not Biden may have another aneurysm.  I’m not sure how anyone could make so many gaffes, continue to do so, and be serious about it.

Do people still put their trust in the government and feel that the politicians are the best and the brightest? HA!

Was this what Joe Biden was talking about the other day?  He was praising the stimulus and how much it was accomplishing… lol!

Moron Alert!  Joe Biden thinks unions will help the middle class and possibly cure the ailing economy.

Vice President Joe Biden, making a renewed pitch for a major change in labor law, told union leaders Tuesday that the best way to rebuild the middle class is to help labor unions grow.

Biden said it’s time to “level the playing field” for unions by passing a bill that would make it easier for workers to organize.

“You’ve got to climb up a hill with so many roadblocks on the way to organize that it’s just out of whack,” Biden told a conference of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has about 1.6 million members.

“If a union is what you want, then a union is what you should get,” Biden said.

The Employee Free Choice Act — also known as “card check” — is organized labor’s top priority this year, but business groups are adamantly opposed. It would allow a majority of workplace employees to sign cards to join a union instead of holding secret ballot elections.

This is just idiotic.  We are supposed to believe that unions, one of the major causes of the auto industry downfall, will actually help the economy and put more money into the hands of the middle class?  Unions have been incredibly corrupt once they came to power and held more sway up on Capitol Hill.  Even employees that are supposedly protected by unions get used and abused in order for the union leaders to gain more power and control.  Unions suck money out of companies because of strict contractual agreements, huge benefit packages, protection from getting fired, major pay rates, etc.  If private companies are forced to accept union labor, they will move to other countries to conduct business.  The United States, IIRC, is the only country that has unions.  When auto industries conduct business in other countries they are actually profitable because there are no unions in those factories.  Other companies will escape overseas, so if Biden wants to level the playing field, as he puts it, and not completely demolish the U.S. economy, then he will have to figure out a way to enforce union labor on places like India, China, Brazil, etc. FAT CHANCE – Good one Joe… But then again, we already know that you and your Democrat cronies are all in the pockets of the Unions.

Joe Biden’s press office flubbed some of the spellings on one of his press releases… The gaffes of the vice president never end!

Usually his press people have to send out a statement clarifying what the vice president meant. On Monday, they had to send out an email clarifying what they meant.

But it was only a minor mistake. Like the city where the vice president was going. And the vice president’s name.

Subject

“Vice President Buden Kicks Off $32 Million Renovation and Restoration of Wilimington Train Station,” reads the subject line.

Joe Biden could not be reached for comment; he was busy preparing for his next Swine Flu escapade:

The World Health Organization said on Friday that as of 0600 GMT the number of officially confirmed cases of a new flu sweeping around the world was 331 in 11 countries, including 10 deaths.

The figures for what the WHO calls influenza A (H1N1), widely known as swine flu, include 109 confirmed cases with one death in the United States and 156 confirmed cases with nine deaths in Mexico, it said in a statement on its website.

Other countries with laboratory-confirmed cases are Austria (1), Canada (34), Germany (3), Israel (2), Netherlands (1), New Zealand (3), Spain (13), Switzerland (1) and United Kingdom (8).

Other estimates of infection are higher. For instance Mexico says up to 176 people have died there and the authorities have confirmed 12 deaths.

Everybody run for the hills and panic just like Joe Botox Biden told us to do!  LOL!

On a side note, I will be purchasing the the latest in influenza wear at irinablock.com. “Pimp my flu mask!”

Hey New Yorkers, take a cab to work today. Or walk.

Your Vice President Joe Biden says you should avoid both planes and subways.

NBC New York: “I would not be at this point … [be] suggesting they ride the subway,”  Biden said when asked whether he would advise family members to use public transportation.

Biden made his comments during a brief interview on NBC’s “Today” show during an interview with Matt Lauer.

The vice president said if one person sneezes on a plane “it goes all the way through the aircraft.”

Biden said the advice to his family differs from that of the federal government’s to the public because, “That’s me.”

But you know, that’s Joe Biden for ya! Always running his mouth, saying what’s on his mind. So charming.
