If the MSM devoted half as much attention to Democratic Vice-Presidential nominee Joe Biden’s gaffes as they do to Internet rumors about his Republican rival, they wouldn’t have time to speculate where Obama wanted to put lipstick.
First, we learn that he doesn’t know what Sarah Palin’s policies are, next we learn that he thinks Hillary Clinton is more qualified to be president than he.
My blogging nephew has now collected Top 5 Joe Biden Gaffes Of This Campaign. Some will be familiar to our readers, but his post did remind me of one that I hadn’t registered previously–that Joe Biden had once “forgotten” his own age. (That’s number 5.)
UPDATE: Â Seems MItchell scooped the New York Times. About Biden, John Broder writes, “boy, does he say some curious things. A day on the campaign trail without a cringe-inducing gaffe is a rare blessing. He has not been too blessed lately.” Â Read the whole thing!
UP-UPDATE: Â Linking the Times article, Glenn Reynolds writes, “And yet people seem to be hanging on Sarah Palin’s every word. Not sure if that’s good news or bad for the Obama campaign — Biden’s gaffes get discounted, but only because the entire ticket has been upstaged by McCain’s number two.”
actually you missed a souple of others…one when obama introduced biden as his running mate he introduced him a the “next President” then almost to the day one week later biden said that he {biden} was running for president…sheesh do wish they’d get it together…wonder if Gibson will ask them if they know which is which, or who is running for what…
The Obama campaign has hired not one, but two, Gaffe cops, to try and reign in Biden’s mouth.
Also, Obama is sure taking the high road, with a new ad making fun of John McCain’s age. Way to stick to the issues, Lightbringer.
OMG, sarah doesn’t know what the “bush Doctrine “is.
Palin asked for a perfectly legitimate clarification to narrow a broad question. I bet she knows how to use capitals and punctuation, though.
michael’s still mad that she is loving and raising a child he regards as a “waste of resources” and a shame to the genetic purity of the Fatherland.
Michael, I thought you might think that was a good thing, a sign that McCain did not pick a running mate who wanted to continue the work of the Bush Administration.
michael,
Google “Bush Doctrine” and come back and tell us what it is. There will be a peanut butter sundae and smart pills as a reward.
It almost seems like the Obama campaign has taken on a bunker mentality.
Best illustration of the point yet:
Gibson: What do you think of the Constitution?
Palin: Could you be more specific?
Gibson: [Stares over glasses]
jimmeh: OMG SHE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT THE CONSTITUTION IS!!!!
Remember when Verry/Leftwards ’04 promissed to heal the sick and make Christopher Reeve walk again? Biden probably figured he’d take a crack.
michael,
I will add a bowl of fruitloops and a dill pickle to the offer.
Comment by V the K — September 12, 2008 @ 9:32 am -well, while one can understand ignorance and it’s easy to “blaim” the ignorance on the power of being brainwashed as a youth, there is no excuse as an adult to continue with such ignorance. http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2008/09/12/lhc.jpg
pig palin is corrupt as the day is long.
too funny. one posts several comment of import and they disappear. someone need a new server.
oh yes miss sarah, you talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.“I championed reform to end the abuses of earmark spending by Congress. In fact, I told Congress — I told Congress, ‘Thanks, but no thanks,’ on that Bridge to Nowhere. ‘If our state wanted a bridge’, I said, ‘we’d build it ourselves’… if your conviction be so strong. i would suggest you return the last 21 months of earmarks received to th US Treasury. come on sarah, put on the lipstick and show us some balls.
THE SILENCE IS GOLDEN
