It may not be a top tip in the Toastmaster's guide, but Vice President Joe Biden did win back the attention of a sleepy audience of donors Friday when he jokingly berated them for being "dull as hell."
"I guess what I’m trying to say without boring you too long at breakfast –- and you all look dull as hell, I might add," he told a crowd of more than 200 fundraisers from the Turkish and Azerbaijani communities in Washington DC. "The dullest audience I have ever spoken to. Just sitting there, staring at me. Pretend you like me!”
The comment was met with laughs, per a White House pool reporter on the scene of the $2,500-per-ticket fundraising breakfast.
At the end of his remarks -- which included specifics about America's relationship with Azerbaijan and Turkey, "one of our most valuable and proudest allies" -- Biden wrapped up with the explanation that he was "boring you as much as I’m boring myself."
It's not the first time that the affable veep has kidded a less-than-excited bunch of donors with some light-hearted jabs at their lack of attentiveness to his remarks.
At an October 2010 fundraiser for Democratic gubernatorial nominee Tom Barrett in Madison, Wisconsin, Biden similarly called his listeners "the dullest audience I've ever spoken to!"
Barrett lost that election but is currently running again in the state's gubernatorial recall contest.

Carrie......and your point?
To stir the pot perhaps? lol
You got to ♥ Joe - he just calls em like he sees em!
Zzzzzzzzzz
That's our Uncle Joe that we love.
That Biden is an idiot. Of course, we KNOW Biden is an idiot, we just did not know that he was given to dirty jokes.
About Obama, no less.
I dunno- maybe Obama ate Biden's dog. That could explain it.
Oh, my...another knee-slapper from "no joe".
(I hope she at least amuses herself with those jokes.)
GM and Miss F
Carrie......and your point?
Looks like a veiled threat at retribution to me from the Libs R Us group to poor Carrie for not toeing the party line.
So this is how low you go - threatening your own. Now I know why tigers eat their young.
Gee Joe, you are boring as hell....except when you stick your foot in your mouth.
"The dullest audience I have ever spoken to. Just sitting there, staring at me. Pretend you like me!”
No thanks!!
An NBC writer "stirring the pot" against one of her own; doubtful. Joe's silliness is just to hard to pass up. He's the gift tht keeps on giving. Second in line from the presidency, wow!!
Awful lot of 'big stick' envy going on around here...
Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL
I'm sure you would like to beat the crap out of Carrie with that big stick for even bringing this up!!
So what's on the imaginary menu today at the DDI? Faux drinks, faux food, faux recovery, faux jobs or just the same old dumb fux sitting around in a faux circle doing some faux fux to each other?
You have to love those small donations to the President - $2500 here a person, $38000 there.
Those small donations add up, huh?
I can't wait for your Uncle Joe to debate the GOP VP candidate........
And for those looking for the big stick, ask Red to bend over and pull. It seems to found a home there.
OMG - talk about dull as hell!
Check out MSNBC - Willard is speaking to college students in OH right now!
Not single smile amongst them... lmao!
Any gueses how many sub sandwiches he had to pass out to fill the room?
Of course that was the late bin Laden "slow jamming the news" before a SEAL Team 6 operator fast jammed a couple 5.56 rounds into his cranium, but still it is a pretty funny endorsement of Joe Biden.
The quote also confirms that despite his correct assesment of Joe Biden, bin Laden wasn't that bright ..... Obama has hurt and crippled the United States much more than Joe Biden and Al Qaeda combined, ever could have.
How could they be smiling knowing that the will be unemployed when they graduate due to Obama's failures. Any guess on how many stuffed Pander Bears Obama had to give out to attract college students to his campaign event?
"Check out MSNBC"
The queen of irrelevance gets her talking points from the Kings of irrelevance, how cute. Knowing MSNBC, they probably edited in clips of Joe's audience.
'Pander bears' huh? Thats funny!
I heard someone on the teevee/twitter/tweeted that listening to Willard 'was a cure for insomnia'!
Sounds about right!
Go get 'em Joe.......
Obama/Biden 2012!
And the toastmaster's top tip is "compliment your audience about their trees, specifically the height. And don't get specific about your plans to slash social security or public education."
Jaysus!
Yet another conspiracy theorist chimes in... lol
Bill,
I'm actually glad they allow her FR (Foolish Rhetoric) to blather on. Her and the lemmings in her bubble (of which most are probably her posting as someone else) are great advertising for conservative thought. Far lefties aren't bright enough to figure that out though, so just let it ride.
P.S. her ego thrives on people thinking she has an inside track; so don't feed the beast.
Romney is probably telling them the truth. The truth about that they will have to pay back their student loans, that they will pay for Obamacare, the truth that they will pay off the massive debt that Obama created, the truth that when/if they get a job they will have to pay the full rate of Social Security and Medicare, and they won't be any leftover when they come of retirement age, and the truth that maybe 6 out 100 of them will get a job in their field of study.
After listening to Obama's fairy tales, those students need to be told the truth.
Can I get an "Amen"!
Obama2012 - You better pray!
@bob-1805084 post #1.15 - asinine -
This is what is wrong with the Tea-Baggin Baffoons and or the repugnuts and pals the DINOs hard to beat this emblamatic post of the intelluctual miasima that rues the day...our time our days pitiful statement of our times.
So...Boehner wants obama to pay him back for legitimate political excursions to give speaches to get a bill passed? He called it 'vacation' and billed 179,000/hour for it, yeh?
President George W. Bush spent over 124 million taxpayer dollars on trips to
his ranch in Crawford, TX, and using John Boehner’s logic we demand that the GOP pay us back.
Number of George W. Bush flights for vacation in Crawford, TX:
77
Cost of running Air Force One: $179,000/hour
Flight time one way from the White House to Crawford: 4.5
hours
Cost of one way flight: $805,500
Roundtrip cost: $1,611,000
Total cost to taxpayers of Bush’s vacation trips to the ranch:
$124,047,000
BTW - Bob,.....meet your new buddy - JOE...a regular JOE
If you have the cohones take it up with Joe and his blue collar buddies I don't think you want to do that and Joe is only getting started he will be in your face till November on a regular basis so get used to it.
GAME OVER ------------
Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL
I see you are getting a ton of push back these days. Guess nobody is afraid of the Libs R Us crowd anymore. You can't bully and collapse you way through the day anymore. More people are seeing the failure of your liberal/progressive ideals on a daily basis and running from them.
Nobody likes to be in debt yet you want to keep adding to it every chance you get so that slackers like yourself can continue to get things for free i.e. being paid for by people like me. Well Miss F it looks like the day will come soon when the gravy train of Obama will be pulling out of the station on the likes of you and your pals and you'll have to try and work for a living, unlike what you do now as a paid shill.
I wish you good luck.
I see you still haven't put on your glasses, missy!
Says someone who offers NOTHING but personal attacks... lol
Keep up the good work, I haven't laughed so hard in ages!
REB -
But not any time soon.
Fivethirtyeight has pretty much already declared Obama the winner. :) And Nate Silver is never wrong. He's basically founded his own science over handicapping political contests. Check him out, fivethirtyeight.com.
Or even 270towin.com
Or anywhere else. Except Rasmussen (who suck anyways. They have a PIE of 4% and a REpublican favoritism of 5.9%, meaning...they're 10% off in favor of republicans as a habitual matter)
Also. As democrat registration is increasing, and republican decreasing (although rasmussen tells us otherwise, they are the 'outlier' and the only one championing the opposite), your party is well on the way to becoming obsolete. 2010 was sort of like your last-ditch death screach of defiance, and you got some huge turnout...
and even Boehner knows that your gains are going away this election.
Welcome to...the Whig party. Take it back, man! Slavery is no longer hot-button, but the rest of the platform is solid. Protectionism, laissez-faire, central banking, pro-militarism...it's like Republicanism with real Fiscal Conservatism, and without Social Conservatism!
Seriously though...it was a solid platform and a return to it, from their republican outgrowth, would at least present two competitive and rational parties.
I always imagined "paid professional bloggers" was like that "work from home and earn $1000 per week in your spare time." Does it really exist that people get paid for being insulting, rude, profane, stubborn, illogical..?...Wow, maybe college education is a totally wasted thing

Keep up the good work, I haven't laughed so hard in ages!
You are kidding right??? You have not posted one thing that hasn't been a personal attack of some kind at somebody be it a fellow poster, any Republican candidate or anybody that disagrees with you on anything. As I said before and will continue to say - You Miss F are a LOSER!!!
And BTW that's MISTER but you could be forgiven considering what you have to work with.
teknishan
Nobody can fault you if you like things given to you rather than working to get them. I think it's just wrong. Let's all hope your liberal websites are wrong in their "predictions".
Did Mr. Silver factor in Obama's signature program, Obamacare, being thrown out as unconstitutional? Did Mr. Silver factor in that the Obama administration losing the case against the Arizona law he challenged regarding illegal immigrants also being tossed? Did Mr. Silver factor in a slowing down of the economy?
If so, then maybe you and Mr. Silver are correct.
For being right all the time, Mr. Silver appears to have wasted his time on handicapping elections. He should have worked at predicting the stock market, or betting on the ponies. Or picking lottery numbers.
@ teknishan
Looks like the TeaPeople posters are stunned by your post at #1-25, no comments from them at all.
Nate Silver is indeed accurate!
teknishan, in 3 1/2 months BO has doubled the fundraisers Bush did in 10 months in his re-election campaign. On taxpayer money, you gonna complain about that?
His recent south florida fundraiser had 3 scheduled for at least a month. A day or two before they added an "official event" which was a campus speech. Then the trip was paid for by you and i as taxpayers. They all do it, just not on the large scale BO is doing it.
You really want to chastise a Prez for going home 9 times a year? What about golf BO already played 4 times the rounds of golf.
Who cares about fundraisers? Seriously. As long as we maintain SOME growth while the rest of the world goes to hell, the president could spend all day jerking off and I wouldn't mind it one bit. Because we are doing BETTER THAN EVERYWHERE ELSE.
And the Republicans have put forth efforts to undermine that and put us back into recession. I don't care what Obama does, as long as we keep 'winning'.
Aw, see, that was a personal attack whereas mine involved a bit more levity.
You see, dear boy, I am allowed to post. While at work <gasp!>. I sit at the 'big desk' and love it.
Because I own my own corporation (well, 85% makes me majority shareholder) and make what might be in the low 7 figures this year (time will tell, but we're trending well).
And, like every other technologist and scientist, I understand reality has a very liberal bias. There's a reason 90% of the science community are self-identified liberal. It's not because we've already made up our minds, but because we judge facts as a habit and way of life:)
You won't see me talk much about the social issues, since those can't be quantified, but I love launching financial tirades since those are easily quantifiable and Republicans are, seriously, almost always wrong. Or hypocritical. Usually both.
Words like 'leveraged buyout' aren't just tag-lines that are associated to Mitt Romney, but a legitimate concern to me. I know how, and why, venture capital operats the way it does and have been known to speak to them on occassion. (Seriously, they really are all scumbags).
And I love picking on philosophies championed by people like yourself.
I'm an elitist, you see. And make no bones about it.
And I love sticking my nose in here between doing something vaguely productive and seeing how silly both sides can get over what I consider to be pretty obvious problems and solutions.
You sound like more of a snob. But to each their own.
You got some sources for your 90% of scientists are liberal? And remember Think Progress doesn't count. Or are these scientists at our colleges and universities, the bastions of liberalism?
Perspiration,
Thanks for the emblahmatic post.
So you couldn't refute or challenge it?
9/11 was an attack on American symbols such as the World Trade Center, an attempt to marginalize the United States in the eyes of the world and an attempt to hurt us economically.
Do really think bin Laden could have ever shut down our economic life blood, energy production in the Gulf, the east coast, the west coast, Alaska, pipeline from Canada, production on the continent ..... as successfully as Obama, Chu, Salazar and the EPA have?
Do you really think bin Laden could have ever ruined the value of the dollar the way Obama did with QE1 and QE2?
Do you really think bin Laden could have ever put reord number of Americans on food stamps ... on the ranks of the poor ....
Do you really think bin Laden could have lowered American prestige lower than Obama has ..... weakened us economically the way Obama has?
Do you really want to argue this stuff, or shouldn't you go back nebulous faux issues like Obama and Biden do?
FR,
"Says someone who offers NOTHING but personal attacks... lol"
Says someone who starts most every post off with a generalized attack. Lets see, "treasonous bastards", ring a bell there queenie?
"And, like every other technologist and scientist, I understand reality has a very liberal bias. There's a reason 90% of the science community are self-identified liberal."
Check your sources tek, your are mixing liberal arts with science. you're way off.
Nate is grateful for the link- but pretty bemused by your declaration that he is 'never wrong'.
He had Santorum with an 80% chance of taking Michigan, after all.
Nate's a statistical genius, but his calculations are based on polling- outside polling. As such, he rates polling organizations, and uses those factors to form an equation that gives him a range. Thus, his predictions are within ranges, then averaged, then a probability is published. He'd be the first to tell you that, while the math is exciting, it is far from infallible.
If you excelled at integrated calculus, you can begin to understand the equations he uses. For a better idea of how infallible Nate is, have a look at his baseball predictions. It's where he honed this particular craft.
*polishing crown*
Why, yes it does, thank you for affording me the opportunity to repost the entire comment in context from yesterday!
As a matter of fact, this should be posted every day from now until the election, let America get a good hard look as the treasonous bastards DC!
Just as I have always suspected from these treasonous bastards!
One thing is certain – they will not be able to run on the “Country First” BS this time around!
And here I thought we sent representatives to DC for the betterment of the country.
Instead we get a bunch of rich old white guys sitting in a smoke filled room plotting to overthrow a duly elected President!
Nice... real nice...
Chilled,
The funniest part is Nate Silver walked on water in 2010!
Oh... how they crowed about him! lol
Now the unruly mob appears to have turned against him!
Well yes.
He, after all, is mathematically predicting their demise. Both parties, sadly, only like it when education confirms their innate beliefs. When it challenges it? My god, obviously bias.

PEW Poll:
www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/07/10/only-six-percent-of-scien_n_229382.html
Admittedly, 90% was off.
It's actually only 87%. My bad, guys. (52 + 35) are democrat or democrat-leaning.
6% are republican or republican-leaning.
The rest refuse to identify.
It means people who mathematics for a living? They think the republican party tends to be full of s**t.
Not saying democrats don't have our own moments (still waiting to close Guantanamo, Obama!)...
but they're still a bit more realistic than the Government Of Preachers.
Sidenote- I said scientists. Not engineers. A biologist, chemist, astronomer, computer scientist, mathematician is a 'scientist'. An architect, network engineer, civil engineer, etc are 'engineers'. Engineers are 50-50.
tek, i personally could care less about where the prez goes on vacation. Bush, Obama, Clinton, whomever.
The reason people, from the left and right, are commenting on the taxpayer funded trips is the large amount of them he is doing compared to all the prevous presidents.
But i do appreciate you telling us all your percentage owned of a corp and your salary range. And the fact you like picking on my philosophies, even though i haven't told you any.
P.s.- Nate's a little confused about your pronouncing that he declared, (infallibly, no less), that Obama would win. Can't figure out how you extrapolated that from anything he's published. The only thing he has out is how unreliable the polling in April is in regard to the general election.
An analysis of that article led to the conclusion that he had, in fact, been very clear- it is difficult, at best, to use April polling to predict the outcome of general elections.
Since you did, in fact, reference his site, you made him a little paranoid about people misreading or misinterpreting what he had written.
I assured him that you were, in fact, simply making things up- and sent him a link to you "90% of scientists are liberals" as proof.
Although reassured, he'd prefer you leave his name out of your fantasy posts in the future.
Hey Fuxed-up Redhead..........what article was your post #1.40 published in? I would bet that it was some B.S. faux news source like politico or MSNBC; but it could have been from any number of hack liberal sources.
Then you go to say that they sat in a smoke filled room? I guess you decided to incorporate that part as it wasn't in the 'cut/paste' portion of the drivel.
Then you finish with bigoted overtones by calling them a bunch of old rich white guys. In one sentence you managed to try to degrade caucasians, the elderly and men of wealth. Sounds like a lot of pent up problems raging in the narrow mind of the pitiful redhead in backwoods IL; or is this a trait of all liberal democrats?
"Sidenote- I said scientists. Not engineers. A biologist, chemist, astronomer, computer scientist, mathematician is a 'scientist'. An architect, network engineer, civil engineer, etc are 'engineers'. Engineers are 50-50."
I wish you could actually see how hillariously stupid that revelation is. Figures never lie, but liars sure can figure huh?. Join Foolish Rhetoric in the land of the absurdly irrelevant.
Tek, curious your take on the dependance programs and your philosophy. In 1960 we were around 25% of the budget on them. (OMB) In the late 80's around 48%. We now spend almost 70% of our budget there. If you like math, how is that playing out in the future?
Odd. The Huffington story termed the 35% as "independents". So your characterization of them being "democrat-leaning" would seem to be misleading. So it appears your real number is in fact 52%. That doesn't hold quite the drama you had started out with, now does it?
For being an engineer/scientist, you certainly aren't very good with details.
Would you looky there! I leave for a brief moment and poor Dolly is back, more bitter than ever!
Dolly, in order to be taken seriously, you have to post something that makes sense about the topic of the day! We simply do not care how you feel about libs, or how jealous you are of their ability to be friends.
Now. It is time for you to turn off the computer and do your homework. The adults have important things to discuss!
Right...because everything was sunshine, lollipops and unicorns in the weeks and months leading up to the President taking the oath of office.
teknishan,
Are you kidding?
Like the green agenda .... that wants to rely on electric cars?
And when was the battery invented ... 1800?
And didn't we go through all the electric car bs a hundred years ago?
And how much of an improvement have we realized .... when a car still runs for an hour and has to be charged for 3 ... charged by fossil energy?
Realistic?
What do we have today that can replace fossil energy?
Algae ..... that takes 350 gallons of water to help produce 1 gallon of fuel?
And how many American cities are rationing, trying to preserve water?
Lithium batteries?
What are the world reserves of lithium compared to fossil fuels .... 10-20 years vs. 200-400 years?
Realistic ... what a joke.
More Foolish Rhetoric
The more she posts the more clear it becomes; Her mirror is broken!!
NDD,
Sorry to report she never left!
Although, the rage building up inside of her is swelling to new levels never seen before! lol
It is amusing to watch...
Regular readers recognize right wing bull@!$%# when they see it!
I do seem to have picked up another pet rock to add to my collection!
Them trolls can't get enough of me! lol
Oh, and one more thing, did you notice J. Merle has found her way back?
Not really, but certainly ... by almost any measure ... not as bad as it is now.
Gas prices were half what they are today.
Did bin Laden ever double the price of fuel ... do anything that impacts our economy the way Obama's asinine policies have?
I noticed that too JoAnna. The article tek quoted said 55% are Democratic and 52% are liberal. And he tells us it is 87%?????
I DID notice that, Feisty!
newdayDAWNING...RETURNED
Hi Dear - good to see you made it back so you could continue to show your ignorance on the board.
Always good to have another twit representing the Libs here.
Time for you to go to the DDI now and play with your Faux friends.
Winemaker:
Me either, seeing as how he handily kicked the @!$%# out of the last person you put up against him.
I think I was laughing about the ass whooping for a straight week afterwards.
For the record, Biden may have troubles with running his words by his brain before they exit his mouth, but I'll take his political record with this country any day of the week over anyone in the GOP (and anyone in the DNC, for that matter), not to mention his personal life.
Well, at least we know he can add, unrelated numbers, but adding none the less.
Still no answer of what number of these scientists worked at our colleges and universities.
I guess that is what Liberals like tek do. Manipulate the numbers until they make sense, at least to themselves.
@Bob-180...Post #1.54 -
Only the most dense and I do mean the most stunted thinkers on this vine holds to the premise that a stting president as Obama, barely three years in with everything else to deal with has any interest in the manipulation of gas prices but whom would stand to profit from a rise? Obama has no family or other ties (say as Halliburton etc.) and not beholding to the big oil companies would be responsible for higher gas prices: oil is a commodity and traded in as any other commodity buying short or long, warrants, calls, futures, market manipulation for political purposes and so much more. The world wide speculation relative to world supply and demand determine prices at any given point in time the factors are never equal.
The hucksters would have you believe this president is driving up prices because we do not drill enough yet we are at record levels for domestic production. As this poster spews his miss-information on all levels with skimpy non-facts, this poster has a penchant for making up facts, be aware the low life tactics of spreading mass deceptive information as fact is a staple of their dirty tricks and one dirty low down scummy style of politics they cannot resist...it is in their genes. Beware of these snake oil salesman they are coming out of the wood work as so many roaches and maggots.
Have a great weekend.
BOB-1805084
Wow. I've read your posts many times and have always recognized the ignorance in them, but you've outdone yourself this time.
Yeah, they started toying with electric cars a hundred years or so ago. Do you not think that technology has improved a little during that time? The green initiative would remove a lot of the roadblocks and speed bumps that Big Oil has thrown at it over the years.
You realize that the water from algae fuel production is mostly recovered, right?
The next step in this country for water sourcing is going to be desalinization like they do in Saudi Arabia. It's expensive, but there aren't really any alternatives besides praying for rain which I know it the solution offered by the tea baggers.
200 - 400 years of fossil fuels? Yeah, maybe if we stop using gasoline-powered cars tomorrow in all parts of the world. Otherwise, it's closer to 100.
And I hate to break it to you but gas isn't double what it was in 2008. The increase is about 33%, which is only a little higher than inflation.
Sheez .... is Bev tutoring you in English and sentence structure or is that exemplary of a serious deficit?
Well thanks, I will.
In the mean time, why don't you study up .... google Seven Chu (Obama's Energy Secretary)and his quote about wanting to get the price of gas up to $8-$10 a gallon ... google Obama quotes on "energy prices will necessarily skyrocket" under his policies ... google Obama's "there is more than one way to skin a cat" / his cap and trade agenda despite resistance from Congress (Dems and repubs) .... google Chu testifying before Congress how they have done nothing to control the rise in prices of energy .... google green boondoogles and Obama and his billionaire bundlers in the green industry ... google Salazar and all the leases he cancelled ..... google domestic production and how production is down on federal lands / leases and how much it is up on private lands - how this factor and Bush's policies are responsible for the "record levels" DESPITE Obama and Chu and Salazar and the EPA .... google perserve / stupid people so stupid that don't realize how stupid they are ...
Till then, put me on ignore so I don't have to waste time responding to fatuous, puerile or jejune comments. (I apologize for giving you the extra homework of looking up 3 new words, but "most dense" and "stunted thinking" was so weak I kinda felt sorry for you.)
Mike.
See #1.62 then google the electic car .... google Congressional Research Service's report on fuel reserves .... google tar sand and shale reserves .... Bakken .... google the country with the greatest fossil reserves on the planet.
Might want to contact a Sylyan Learning Center to brush up on your math skills ... gas was around $1.61-$1.80 when Obama took office. Google the location nearest you and look at the price of gas on your way.
They can walk you through the math when you get there.
I am so glad that 2.2% growth is good. when you do the math that is $300,000,000,000.00. We only spent what 1.3-1.6 trillion dollars to see a 300 billion dollar increase? That represents our deficit spending.
With math like that we will be going like gang busters soon.
I have to admit I really like Vice President Biden's web page. Honestly I feel sorry for him. He has had a tough life.
Thanks Seekingsanity for giving me reasons to look things up.
Please look at the post from the other vine. You will see that big oil is spending money on other forms of energy.
Some of the first cars were battery powered. Yes we have better batteries today. That does not change the fact that there is a limiting factor on how much current can be supplied by the normal home. The average home has a electrical service of 100-150 amps. We would have to double that for every home to meet some of the requirements that an all electric fleet would demand. I do not know about you but there has been several times that I have been without power for 2-5 days at a time. Having a car with an independent power supply sure would be handy.
I know Joe can be a little over the top sometimes, but why would someone pay $2500 for breakfast then sleep through it?
Give 'em hell, Joe!
The ring wing Joe haters will be here soon. 4,3,2,1.
Job 1 you're right! :-)
What a fantastic pair of leaders for the free world to admire....Obama/Biden 2012. Obama is the lead act as dancer and singer along with his trusty side-kick, Biden, and his gaffes and lame jokes. But they are so cute and lovable...so lets vote for them, right?
Biden always resorts to self-deprecating jokes as a cover up for his ineptness as a serious leader. He reminds me of Dan Quayle.
Given what the fundraiser is for, the real question is why would anyone pay $2500 for breakfast at all.
Go Joe, I love someone who can laugh at themself and stay strong. Good Job!!!
I cannot imagine any breakfast in the world being worth $2500 per plate regardless of who the guest of honor was....and furthermore, I cannot imagine ever being in any position to attend such an event thanks to liberal entitlement thinking which says that minute I have two nickels to rub together, one of them has to be taken back by the government to benefit the "poor"
Why would anybody pay millions for a Senate (or House) seat and then sleep through what POTUS has to say? Oh, I guess I shouldn't have said anything against "Sleepin' Joe!"
They go into that 'breakfast' knowing it's a political contribution.
They aren't paying for the meal, as much as they're paying for the party.
Joe is me man! Go give give em hell Joe. Everyonce talks about the gaffes but to me its a man speaking his mind and heart. I am with you Joe all the way!!!
I think bammy has been beating joey with that big ole stick of his again lmfao
I believe Joe Biden is the embodiment of the democratic party!!!!!!! If you know anything about him, you know that he has the heart and soul of a true patriot!!!!! Keep them laughling Joe, while we clean house!!!!!
Leave it to a dullard to recognize dull.
So is that how you're qualified to label Biden as a 'dullard'?
I think Joe has a lot of nerve expecting the audience to be any more energetic for his campaign than he is.
Omega,
I agree. Biden is authentic. When you compare him and the previous VP , I would rather have meal with Biden than old" Darth Vader", Dick Cheney any time.
You got it Northstar!...
.........and never go hunting with Dick 'cause you could end up being the hunted!
I always love it when people defend an idiot by comapring him to another idiot.
Joe, must have been a bunch of spies from ETCH-A-SKETCH'S CAMP! We, the 99% American People, are WIDE AWAKE! We are voting STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC, we're like MLK said, "We, the 99% American People, shall OVERCOME corrupt Republican corporates and their political puppet, Mr. ETCH-A-SKETCH!
Yea I am sure it was Romney supportes that donated $2500 so they could "spy". youre wide awake alright, can't get anything past you. Just curious, have you ever heard of the NDAA and HR347?
Sure, your sound like responding to question "how do you feel if govt stops free $s, and you have to work hard to earn a check?"
I don't get the freebies....so life isn't going to change, except that the chance of my getting a job or a pay raise mgiht increase?????
Any freebies promised?

What else do they have going for them??
The thrill is gone. No We Can't. Change We Never Got. I am no longer proud of my country Michelle. Come November, we will fundamentally transform the Supreme Court to 6-3 conservative. Just waiting for Ginsburg to go away.
Boy you righties are in lala land.
But we do manage not to faint whenever the Messiah speaks. Get ready, Peggy, you will have to pay your mortgage in another 193 days.
2500.00 a plate what did they have KFC twister wraps and coolaid. Got screwed by Obama again. Vaselene anyone!
Yeah, gotta court that money from our muslim sponsor nations. Way to go Joe!
I recall Joe saying in the 2008 debates that Obama did not have the experience to run the country. He said we couldn't afford on-the-job training. But Obama won. Fast forward four years. Joe said this week that Romney does not have the experience to run the country. Deja vu all over again.
I honestly think sarcasm is lost on a large portion of the country. Being from the same general area that Biden was raised in, I can say that we are masters when it comes to the art of sarcasm. It's a shame that a man practicing his craft is not appreciated by so many.
Not buying it Mike. There is a difference between sarcasm and being an a$$ or being professional. When you are the VP you should keep being smart a$$ to yourself.
Yeah,
somehow that wheelchair bound guy didn't appreciate the sarcasm, when Joe Biden asked him to "stand up"...
It's called ball busting....it was a group of friendlies....donors who paid $2,500 a head to eat breakfast. He was giving them a good razzing for being listless and unenergetic. Geez...I would've laughed my ass off.
Problem for the RWNJ's is, they don't have any balls to bust!
Sarcasm derives from a personal viewpoint that says you are superior and the other party is not capable of catching the joke
Biden is living proof that hiring the mentally handicapped is a bad idea.
The dull calling the dull dull.
You know what I find amusing, all GW had to do was screw up one word and the lefties were all over it. Biden talks like a dork and refers to Obama's "big stick" along with sooooo many of his other gaffs, and it is "keep it up Joe", "way to go Joe", and all the back slapping and self absorbed "he is cool to" crap. You libs are truly transparent. You only put up with it when it is one of your own. Amazing. Well, maybe not.
Aw come on now ... us libs was all busting a gut when
GW did that "hidden WMD" routine. Golly dang ... that was funny.
'You all look dull as hell'
In other words Were scared as hell because your not showing any enthusiasm like you did in 2008 and your just going through the motions like good little Robots you are.
Maybe its because "Hope and Change" has turned into "Nope and Deranged".
Seems to be a few Repugs here who don't like Joe or his boss. I wonder if they ever thought about what it would be like if they had won the last election. Now that would get their attention ..."you betchya"! That VP Palin would think Azerbaijan and Turkey was something from the breakfast menu.
Actually she would have said she could read the menu from her house....geesh....another RWNJ ..... could have been a heartbeat away from being President.
Joe is like your next door neighbor buddy that comes outside in the morning to hang out with you in his robe and slippers drinking a beer! lovable, truthful, emotional, and a hell of a lot of fun!
OBAMA / BIDEN 2012 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes but I would not want my next door neighbor second in command. That is the difference.
Maybe you don't have an intelligent, honest, and affable neighbor. Heck, I'll take my next door neighbor anyday over what the GOP is going to cough up.
pay 2,500 for someone to call me dull such a respectful person and ya those suckers will probably vote for him too
TEApublicans are indeed running scared, All they can show is disrespect to a properly elected POTUS, his administration, and his supporters. Such a foolish idea!
Between the disrespect, sowing confusion, and bald-faced lies, I can't wait for this election to be over, the POTUS re-elected, and the party of H*LL NO removed from the House. More than 300 million residents of the USA and Mitt (dog-on-the-car-roof) Romney is the BEST the GOP can offer?
The US needs to get back to fixing the problems caused by DUBYA's wasted eight years.
OBAMA/BIDEN 2012
Thanks for the laugh but grown ups don't believe in the boogey man and no one is running scared from your waste of breath POTUS. You and fiesty should hook up and plan you exit strategy for Nov.
@fiesty, Once again you show how hate filled you are. REB totally made you look like the stupid bitch you are.
He nailed it when he said "Pretend you like me!" You'd have to pretend to someone like Biden.
Well Joe you are talking to a bunch of libs who have never had a original thought in their lives.
Said the common man who presented one of the most unoriginal right wing responses.
Those who support President Obama look dull as hell...if a Republican said that, they'd say he/she was racist.
