Hahahahahaha! B. Hussein Obama, the Candidate of Change, has chosen one of the oldest, whitest, most ridiculous and longest serving political hacks in Washington as his running mate–Joe Biden. And who, oh who, could forget his eloquent discussion about the contribution of East Indians to the culture of Delaware. The culture of 7-11s and Dunkin’ Donuts, that is. Absolutely, totally much, much better than that woman who received 18 million votes in the primary and essentially tied him in the popular vote.
Oh and I guess all those special text messages that are going out in the morning are now a little late.

AP: Biden speaks-and speaks -his own mind
…Biden voted in 2002 to authorize the Iraq invasion, which Obama opposed from the start. Since then, he’s become a firm critic of the conflict and pushed through a resolution last year declaring that Bush’s troop increase — now considered a military success — was “not in the national interest.”
One of the youngest politicians ever elected to the Senate — he was 29 — Biden entered the 1988 Democratic presidential primary promising to “rekindle the fire of idealism in our society.” He reluctantly quit the race three months later after he was caught lifting lines from a speech by a British Labour Party leader…
The question was rooted in Biden’s occasional gaffes. He had apologized earlier for describing Obama as “articulate” and “clean” in one unguarded episode that was taken by some to have a racial overtone. And he’d had to defend his remark that “you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”
Ah yes, I think this will be fun. I’ve noted for quite some time that there is only one decision Obama could make that would change his perpetual downward slide and change the presidential race, and his chances, dramatically–choosing Hillary Clinton as his running mate. But his ego and self-absorption couldn’t allow that. Those two dramatic weaknesses will also keep him from the White House.

Hey Tammy,
I’ve got an idea how politicians could make announcements even cooler than by phone texting: present them in Second Life. See, a poli-avatar will come on-screen, choosing a running-mate and Cabinet members from a virtual police lineup or maybe a chorus line.
Second Life spills into first. It’s not like politics is real life, anyway.
But pols take note: below is not the best way to “capture” voters, virtual or otherwise:
“Woman tries to kidnap ‘virtual’ ex”

… but in a panic, leaves her dog behind, duct-taped in the victim’s bathroom.
Um-woof.
At the very least, there must be enough Biden audio and video clips lying around to provide the McCain campaign with plenty of ammunition. I hope they make good use of it.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…
I am already going to sleep a lot better now that I know McCain definitely will win in November.
Echoing Artgals sentiments plus a few more Ha Ha Has. Thank you B. Hussein. You just nailed your own coffin shut. I love the message of change that comes with Joe Biden. The ol’ windbag. I was a little nervous B. Hussein was going to come to his senses and call on Hillary but as Tammy notes he’s too proud and arrogant for that. I like how in that video clip Joe limits the employment endeavors of the Indian population to 7-11 and Dunkin Donuts. No racism there huh Joe ?
Glad its Biden and not Bayh, where the Dems could have done another Clinton/Gore play…two young guys, neighboring states, out to change the world.
Biden is doofus with zero real world experience. If McCain picks Palin, he neuters the attack dog in the VP debates and brings energy even more to the forefront.
Further proof that God loves US.
Biden is a blathering, puffed-up camera hog. This will be a comedy act with Biden trying to upstage Barry at every opportunity. I wish I could enjoy it more but this overriding apprehension about the next four years keeps wiping the smile off my face. The deficiency of leadership talent at a very perilous time kind of takes the fun out of watching the clowns. Soon McCain will be making his VP announcement. I don’t think I can take any more jokes.
I’m for Palin, but I’m SOOOOOOO thinking of Bobby Jindal vs. Biden in the VP debates…to be sponsored by 7-11 and Dunkin Donuts, perhaps?
YEEEESSSSSSSS! Yesterday, Rush said he was praying it would be Biden. And add several gigs worth of HAHAs to ARTGALs above. And yes to all that’s been said above, too. Couldn’t have picked a better running mate from our standpoint. Yes, DJD11, God loves US. Always will, inspite of US…! Someday US will take a long drink of wake-the-hell-up. Until then, His Mercy (and His sense of humor…) will carry us. Windbags Ahoy! Avast, me hardys! Full speed ahead!
I could hardly wait to read this blog this morning to clear my head! I feel better already! I never thought it would be Hillary because I am sure Michelle would never have allowed Hillary. I wonder how all the peaceloveunderstanding folks are feeling about Biden this morning? Jindal vs. Biden – perfect! No more room under the bus – hilarious!
Tammy, your glee is infectious. This will be real fun indeed.
I envision their campaign logo to be a set of clattering teeth with a halo above them. The only thing worse for Biden than losing this one would be if he became deaf so he couldn’t hear himself talk.
Shoulda picked Hillary oh smug one!
Just realized who the above picture of Biden reminds me of. One of the late George Carlin’s characters, Al Sleet, the Hippy Dippy Weather Man! And he makes about as much sense. Can’t wait to start hearing all the conservative talk radio sound clips of Mr. Biden’s many and sundry gaffes and garbles. To paraphrase one of the late Jimmy Durante’s famous lines, “He’s got a million of’m!”. What a great day this is! Now, if only America listens, and THINKS…
“B. Hussein Obama, the Candidate of Change, has chosen one of the oldest, whitest, most ridiculous and longest serving political hacks in Washington as his running mate”
That’s the funniest and most accurate observation of the year!
