Well, at least the common man's Senator, the guy who eats at "Katies" restaurant and "hangs out" at Home Depot knows enough about baseball to give the right name of the team of the city he's visiting? I mean, this guy is smart, right?

Obama's running mate, Joe Biden, got an early start Wednesday. He was at a morning rally in Tampa, where the Major League Baseball playoffs are all the rage. Biden said Obama wished he was in Florida, too.

"But after what your Devil Rays did to the Chicago White Sox, he just couldn't do it," Biden said. "The man is hurting."


While not a big deal, it shows, yet again, that Senator Biden is one loopy bastard, and frankly the idea of him possibly occupying the White House scares the crap out of me. The dude is a freakin' idiot.

Well, at least Senator Biden knows the difference between a man and a woman, right? From a report in Missouri:

Joe Biden, a politician known famously for his gaffes, couldn't escape Springfield today with at least one flub.

While introducing local politicians at today's outdoor rally in downtown Springfield, the Democratic vice presidential nominee called state Rep. Charlie Norr "Claire Norr."

During all the hysteria about Sarah Palin and whether or not she is fit to be vice president, has anyone noticed that Joe Biden is a persistent, unreformed, downright clownish bungler whose gaffes are simply too many and too wild to be considered perfectly excusable slips of the tongue?

True, he's a likable guy who projects sincerity and any number of other impressive attributes, and maybe that's why his barrage of mistakes draws no great press criticism. Some commentators have gone after him, of course, but mostly we get buried stories with small-type headlines and opinion pieces on how his gush of talk can get ahead of an astute brain. We mostly get winks when we ought to get astonishment.

Senator Biden just announced to a VFW crowd that they'll not regret voting for a 'Biden Administration'.

Jesus. This guy.

Biden just said j-o-b-s is a "three letter word".

And Sarah is the idiot.

Not true. I bet each one has an IQ of at least a 100. Especially Palin.

Biden warns against electing his own guy, basically. What a idiot.

“Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. “It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy..."

Great. If we elect B.O. we'll get another Cuban missile crisis. Change!

Umm, look. "Job" is the root word and it is a three letter word. If this tiny little gaffe is proof of idiocy, while academic achievement is ignored as meaningless then we are all in trouble. If this is the way to judge intelligence then Bush would belong in an inititution for the mentally handicapped.

It is a much bigger gaffe to suggest that some states are pro-American while others are not.

She admires the superstitious witch hunter Rev. Muthee. That should tell you something.

And, read the transcripts of her interviews. Some of those sentences don't even parse.

No, I think your view is skewed by partisanship.

Imagine if they were both given two tests, an IQ test and a difficult test of factual knowledge about world affairs and government. Then, average each persons score. I can just imagine the results.

You can say I am just guessing the outcome or assuming the outcome. Ok, but I would bet my whole life savings on the outcome. I am confident Biden would get the higher score by far. How could it be otheriwse, he has had years of experience and an extensive education.

You're very faithful. You sound like an apologist. A faithful apologist.

You're a very faithful apologist...

For the Democrats.

You're a very faithful Democrat apologist, and it's ironic. You know. Because you're not really faithful, in the religious sense, but then you're being all religiously faithful with something else. You know. Like... With politics. That's where the irony lies. You see it? I do. Plain as day. Yep. And now that I quoted you you can never take it back. Ever. Ha. So I got you sooo good. You big faithful apologist for the Democraps. Ha. You see how I just swapped out the 't' with a 'p', and made a funny play on the word "Democrat". That probably burns you a little because, you know, you're a faithful Democrat apologist who gets upset when his "faith" is challenged.

Ha. So there. You have be rebutted, and I can tell you that if someone were keeping score right now it would be, like, Antishock8 "1000" and Tarski "-1". Pfft. Totally.


1000 to -1 1000 to -1 1000 to -1 1000 to -1 1000 to -1 1000 to -1

No doubt. Good thing Palin doesn't know anything about Lebanon, Afghanistan, Iraq, or the Constitution, huh?

In fact, she probably thinks Lebanon is a breed of dog, Afghanistan is a blanket weaving company, Iraq is an electronic torturing device, and the Constitution is what she does every morning after a cup of coffee.


LMAO. Priceless.

Schmo, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

I was kinda makin' the point that you were being a faithful apologists for the right.

That I am just being faithful makes less sense because I would never claim that McCain was either stupid or evil.

It's amazing how high your opinion of the super-religious Bible believing mentality has suddenly become. Am I confusing you with someone else?


Based on her religious background (Pentecostal) and her admiration of Muthee, what do you think she believes about the end of the world being near, or the tribulation, or whether God tells her how to vote or what policies to adopt? What do you suppose she thinks (but must not quite say) about creationism being taugh in our schools?
