Biden Quote of the Day
[Guest post by DRJ]
Drudge headlines this Joe Biden quote from an AARP event in Virginia:
“Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, that’s what I’m telling you.”
Maybe there’s a method to Biden’s madness. He could be trying to make Sonia Sotomayor look intelligent and well-spoken.

2 Points
1) Biden is mentally retarded.
2) And they said Palin wasn’t ready? ROTLFMAO!

After six months in office, I see no reason to give Biden the benefit of the doubt about… anything.
No method, just the madness.
Dana (57e332) — 7/16/2009 @ 7:13 pmHeaven sent.
There is no reason to insult the mentally retarded by comparing them to Biden.
Thomas Jackson (8ffd46) — 7/16/2009 @ 7:20 pmThe AARP?
Wasn’t that the group that campaigned against Social Security reform? And now the point of bankruptcy for that program is even closer than before.
tyree (707587) — 7/16/2009 @ 7:26 pmThomas, I actually thought of that after wards and I profusely apologize to the mentally retarded for associating them with someone whose intelligence lowers their average IQ scores.
I deeply apologize.
HeavenSent (641cde) — 7/16/2009 @ 7:27 pmAARP is another joke like the AMA.
AMA a-OKed the Health Bill — a bill which is the death of PCP’s nation round.
AARP could care less about Older Folks — they just want to collect those branding and licensing premiums so that the aparatchiks can live nicely.
Much like the AAA is basically a sloppy travel agency.
Sad but true.

He is doing his job as Obama’s life insurance perfectly.
cubanbob (409ac2) — 7/16/2009 @ 7:45 pmBiden is at least consistent in his madness.
“I say, ‘Don’t let your opposition to the Recovery Act blind you to its results. Come see what I see everywhere I go: workers rehired, factories reopened, cops on the street, teachers in the classroom, progress toward getting our economy back on the move.'”
Apparently he didn’t notice that climbing 9.8% unemployment rate or the 600 layoffs this week at Cisco Systems…. Of course, maybe he was just tired and full from that big lunch at Katie’s on Union Street.
Dana (57e332) — 7/16/2009 @ 7:58 pmThe 140 people who came out to listen to him in Cantor’s district loved him.
Damn, we dodged a bullet with Caribou Barbie.
daleyrocks (718861) — 7/16/2009 @ 8:03 pmOh, so he’s hallucinating too… Neat.
Scott Jacobs (d027b8) — 7/16/2009 @ 8:14 pmThe AARP will kill you dead soon as look at you if you’re under 55 or so. Meaner than sin. It’s a protection racket they’re running and gots your own grandma too scared to speak up about it. Feel right welcome in Barack Obama’s America they do.
happyfeet (c75712) — 7/16/2009 @ 8:24 pm“The AARP will kill you dead soon as look at you if you’re under 55 or so.”
feets – Not so. You officially become an old fart at age 50 according to the AARP. They send you a membership card that tells you so.
daleyrocks (718861) — 7/16/2009 @ 8:42 pmYeah, well they won’t feel so welcome when they get denied that hip surgery because they are too old…
Scott Jacobs (d027b8) — 7/16/2009 @ 8:43 pmfeets – It’s like an extra special happy birthday greeting – Hooray you’re an old fart. It arrives on your birthday.
daleyrocks (718861) — 7/16/2009 @ 8:43 pmI also got a birthday invitation from AARP on my 50th, daley, but AARP really gets serious about solicitations at 55.
I’m saddened but not surprised that the AARP is apparently signing on to Obama’s government-based health care plan. I think older Americans will suffer the most from a government plan because they will be the first targets for rationed health care. However, their dissatisfaction will give the AARP leverage to solicit new members as it promises to advocate for them with the government. The more unhappy elders there are, the more they will seek out organizations like AARP to help them. Unfortunately, most of them will have no idea the AARP signed on to the Plan that caused their dissatisfaction.
DRJ (6f3f43) — 7/16/2009 @ 9:17 pmMy friends dad (claims he) wrote “Why don’t you go f*** yourself” (but without the asterisks) on his 55th birthday card from the AARP and sent it back to them. Not that it prevented them from soliciting him further.
JVW (e79981) — 7/16/2009 @ 9:34 pmoh. Got it. 50 then. Them AARP lowlife no-accounts figure on his 50th birthday a man’ll trade his soul for a 10% discount at a Ramada Inn. That’s a bleak view of the human condition to have hold in your mind is what that is, and desperate sad.
happyfeet (c75712) — 7/16/2009 @ 9:35 pmThe AARP was investigated by Doofus 43’s IRS/Justice(?) for being a fake tax-exempt organization since they make their money from selling insurance and other marketing and not from membership fees but after it was determined tha they did not try to kill his daddy the investigation was dropped.
nk (956ea1) — 7/16/2009 @ 9:42 pmAARP connivance aside, the method to Joe’s rantings (really the reason he was chosen as VP) was to go forth and make mind-bending bizzare assertions of fact. This leaves the listner stunned, in a sort of fugue state – an analogy would be a hard punch to the temple, the kind that makes the lights dim and suddenly you are thinking of pancakes and how about the Cards and what the HELL DID I JUST HEAR?
Nope, its very good. Sort of the absolute polar opposite to “nuance” – the kind of blind blundering hubristic ignorance so dense that it warps reality around it and drives bystanders quite insane. I dunno, maybe it’s an evil psychic superpower or something.
JSinAZ (8dd117) — 7/16/2009 @ 9:50 pmWhen I worked at an unnamed very large Corporate we actually made overtures to buy one of these named brand
CompanyNon-Profit becauseit made so much money it made our heads spin.AMA/AARP/AAA are For-Profit who piss away the profits on purpose with bloated executive salaries and bloated perks and feel good nonsense.
IRS wants to close the budget deficit. Close the Non-Profit exemption on these bloated, self serving entities. Just take a look at the salaries these Non-Profit guys get and you will understand……
HeavenSent (641cde) — 7/16/2009 @ 9:52 pmGawds. Why we the American public elected to place such buffoons like our current vice president in positions of great prominence — undoubtedly due to the belief that they would be caring, nurturing, heart-warming, “progressive” — is both ridiculous and pathetic.
Mark (411533) — 7/16/2009 @ 10:07 pmJoe sounds as if he met Yogi at the fork, and took it.
Paul Albers (1fa160) — 7/17/2009 @ 1:33 amI keep getting solicitations from the American Association of Rinkled People. I usually just throw them out. Now I will return them in the postage paid envelope, empty.

I returned my 55th solicitation with a copy of my NRA Life Member card…
AD - RtR/OS! (022cb0) — 7/17/2009 @ 5:46 amNever heard another word from them!
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot! This man truly is an idiot!
The only reason he’s VP is to provide assasination/impeachment insurance to the Won!
Bob (99fc1b) — 7/17/2009 @ 7:09 amThat makes him a hypocrite. What did Jesus say about hypocrites and logs and specks?
Michael Ejercito (833607) — 7/17/2009 @ 8:45 amIf you think AARP is bad, think about American “Conservative Union. Fortunately, I never sent money to these dopes.
Mike K (90939b) — 7/17/2009 @ 8:58 amA long soulful gaze into Biden’s eyes will only reveal that there’s no one home in that empty skull.
