Quote of the Day
Honors to James Taranto, nailing it that nobody panicked when the Vice President said something stupid and outlandish.
Under normal circumstances, for the vice president of the United States to say what Biden said would have risked setting off a panic. Fortunately, everyone discounts for the fact that the vice president is Joe Biden.Unfortunately, if President Obama were unable to perform the duties of his office, the vice president would become president--and the vice president is Joe Biden. That's no reason to panic, only to be afraid.
UPDATE: Heh. Insty: "They told me that if I voted for McCain we’d have a Vice President who was a moron… and they were right!" VP Biden Posted by John Kranz at April 30, 2009 4:28 PM
Everyone nod in agreement: Biden is the greatest insurance policy against impeachment in the history of America.
Yeah, we sure dodged a bullet with that Palin woman, didn't we?
Posted by: Keith at April 30, 2009 5:27 PMOh yeah -- she coulda been Vice-President!!
Posted by: jk at April 30, 2009 6:08 PMI believe it was Ann Coulter who originally said, in her inimitable style, that Biden's Secret Service nickname is "Assassination Insurance."
I still wonder how much his, Obama's and Pelosi's life insurance premiums went up once Hillary became Secretary of State...
Posted by: Perry Eidelbus at April 30, 2009 10:44 PMThree heartbeats away from the Oval Office - and scarier still, she's prob'ly the most competent of the four, and I would never have thought I'd have said that in public.
I have this vision of Hillary doing that cackle of hers while the still-warm blood of the three of them drips from her fangs. But then I woke up and realized that vision couldn't happen; while the Prezznit and Biden are at risk, Pelosi is clearly already numbered among the undead, from the rigor mortis showing on that face of hers. Yeah, I'm going to sleep real well tonight with THAT going through my head.
