ATTENTION ALL REPORTERS!!! Start checking your Blackberries! William Rivers Pitt has another news scoop! You should find out about it in 24 business hours. And the amazing scoop can be described in just one word according to Pitt: "Eagleton." Ironically, Pitt might finally get a scoop right but in the wrong way. The Pied Piper thinks this will apply to Sarah Palin being removed from the ticket but I happen to know that it will be Joe Biden who will be facing the same situation due to a certain piece of material out there that will surface soon...maybe in 24 business hours. This material would be like watching Tom Eagleton actually undergoing electro-shock therapy. However, I really don't want Biden to be removed from the Obama ticket. It is much better for him to remain where he is and pull Obama and all the other Democrats down, unable to recover from the loss for at least another generation. So it turns out that Pitt is right but in 180 degrees the wrong way as you can see in his DUmmie THREAD titled, "So...the top post on Talking Points Memo is 1 word long...one name, really...and a question mark..." Therefore let us join Pitt in mid "scoop" in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, noting that the "Eagleton" word will soon be resurrected but not in the direction that Pitt hopes, is in the [brackets]:
So...the top post on Talking Points Memo is 1 word long...one name, really...and a question mark...
[The Pied Piper Pitt memo is 1 word long: "Drunk."]
"Eagleton?"
["Biden?"]
For the edification of any who don't yet know about one of the more remarkably grotesque political debacles in modern American history.
[As big a debacle as the scoop about Karl Rove being indicted on May 12, 2006? While we wait 24 business hours for Pitt's scoop to materialize, let us join the DUmmies in progress...]
I don't get it...is it the replacement thing or the mental health thing? Or is there some other significance to the name.
[There was a lot of significance to the name of Jason Leopold, half of the famous investigative team of Leopold & Lib who broke the Karl Rove indictment scoop.]
The replacement thing. They are implying she will have to be replaced. They might have used "Miers?"
[Or "Biden?"]
Well, McGovern lost the election after Eagleton thing. I think they are implying this could cost McCain the election if he has to replace her.
[Note to Obama: Please don't replace Joe Biden after a certain piece of material is revealed. BTW, one other person other than Charles Henrickson is privy to the material. FReeper faq put on his Sherlock Holmes hat and figured it all out to the extent that he even knows the date and location of the material. Oh, I am also going to have to swear faq to an oath of omerta.]
Who would he choose for his encore?
[Hillary? But I don't want Obama to make a switch. I hope he stands 1000% behind Joe Biden.]
Eagleton, for those who don't remember, was tapped to be a VP running mate and then had to be un-tapped. It was very bad all the way around.
[Watching a video of Joe Biden in Beaver, PA, I am wondering if he tapped a keg there.]
I think it's something else big and Obama better get ahead of it before it becomes public. Of course no one will ever accuse him of surrounding himself with the best and brightest.
Nope. Not even about smuggled Biden Chia Pets.
Whatever!
Hard too imagine anything more zany than we already know about that arrogant *&%)&#$%@ (being polite due to Sunday morning, etc).
I think it may have something to do with Biden and alcohol. I saw a video of him...I think it was on YouTube...singing drunkenly about some Florida community. The audio was played by a local radio host right after Joe B. was selected. He was at a lake, and he was...no doubt about it...absolutely, 100% s**t-faced.
Then, there was the question of a speech he gave the other night where his words sounded slurred.
I think-if there IS a need to replace him-the real reason will be about the booze.
Nope. Material I have is much worse. But I have seen that video you posted. Very FUnnie!
Thanks, I really was lost.
Probably not “it”, but a lot of people say that that’s not Biden’s own hair. That’s a damned lie. You pay $6,000 dollars for something you own it, that’s what I say.
REEEEEE-ally?????
Oooo. I can hardly wait!!
(I thought for sure this vid’s what you were referring to. Oh well.)
I’ve wondered the same thing. Obama made a huge mistake not choosing Hillary. Some of her supporters are pretty excited about Palin being VP. I also think this is why the dem. convention had so little energy. Despite the calls for “unity”, there is still a lot of tension between the Obama/Clinton voter camps. Trouble is brewing. Will they have the adaucity to throw Biden under the bus? It would take a lot of convincing to both Barack AND Michelle to choose Hillary.
If that is the case, how does Obama mend fences between Kerry, Kennedy, et al, and the Clinton’s?

If the Clintons get back into the White House, it will be retribution time, like the Corleone family consolidating power in “The Godfather,” where the watchword is, “It’s business, not personal.”
Notables who abandoned her for Obama will get the Big Chill. “He’s dead to us,” a Clinton aide was quoted saying of John Kerry, who along with Ted Kennedy was turned off by the perception of race baiting that led up to the South Carolina primary.

Nice reference, Peej!
As if McGovern had a chance anyway. But that "thousand percent" flip-flop made him an even greater laughingstock. And Sargent Shriver (leader of the Bleeding Hearts Club Band) did nothing for McGovern's chances.
"Make mine a Courvoisier!"
Pitt has a new cat?
hehehe, Joe Biden, the Villages Idiot..
Like Dolly Parton said of her breasts, "They're mine, all right - bought and paid for."
