Biden is a dud.
I'm shocked, I tells ya!
To: retrokitten
SILENCE!The Chinese President is speaking :)

I can’t wrap my head around picking Biden. Hillary must have a double agent in the Obama campaign. “No, seriously, pick Biden. It’ll be awesome. People love him.”

I can’t see that happening, but who really knows. Politics is an ugly business.

I vote Sprite's commercial the best of the Olympics. Where the basketball court becomes a pool. That was ingenius.
To: retrokitten
It's so nice they're singing My Country 'Tis of Thee. They got the lyrics wrong, though.

That is a good one, but I am going to have to say either the Coke commerical with Yao Ming and Lebron James where they have a China v. America thing going on (Ming rides a dragon). Or the one where the birds take the straws and make the birds nest that looks like the stadium. Those were my faves.
