Can you believe he is really pondering a run for the WH?

Yes, his ego is that big

And I hope he does run .. I will enjoy watching him get humiliated by his own party voters :0)

[hoosiermama]

DId you leave before the swimmer was up?

From the looks of Biden's hair, I think your coordinates were precise.

Taking a line from the Clarence Thomas hearing Biden should say:

I've got pubic hair on my head!

[defconw]

He make me sick!

[puroresu]

You missed Biden looking and sounding stupid, but it's not like you can't see that anytime.

[auboy]

The BIG Show. :-)

"then Kyl told a lie -- he said Biden WAS wise"

Kyl wasn't necessarily lying:

In my dictionary, definition 5 is (slang) Offensively self-assured, arrogant. By that definition, Biden is definitely wise.

[onyx]

You heard the exchange correctly.
Biden couldn't shut up... he could see that Kyl was going to ram his own blather about Bader-Ginsberg right down his throat, so he purposely interrupted to "lighten" the moment.

Kyl is absolutely doing a fabulous job as "clean up hitter."

[beyond the sea]

Exactly............they are not laughing with him. Biden is making an *ss of himself. His theatrics are humorous, and Mr. Roberts is a supreme gentleman and wise man.

[StarFan]

Can you believe he is really pondering a run for the WH?

Well if McLame has high hopes, why not his clone Biden? Talking about McLame, I marvel that two Senators from the same state, and from the same party, present themselves so differently. If were to chose one to run in 2008, Kyl wins hands down.

[onyx]

Me too! Run Joe Run. I want to see him thoroughly humiliated.

[A Citizen Reporter]

Roberts pounded on Biden so badly that by the end Biden was left sputtering "You're good".

[JFC]

How do we tell the people of Delaware to fire Biden? Good Lord, there must be SOME people with some sense in that state who would like to get rid of this a*s.


That is why we email and call 202-224-5042 to let his office know what a pos he is acting like. He is not acting like a MAN, he is behaving like a bully that would be suspended from 5th Grade for throwing such fits. I hope school children are not watching these. They would learn how to belittle people.

[syriacus]

Didn't Jimmah Cotter consult Amy about rabbits or some darn thing

Chelsea Clinton got to sit in on the Camp David talks suring the last days of her dad's presidency.

[auboy]

LOL. Sure looks like it. Only his hair superintent knows for sure. :-)

[melancholy]

Turns out the relaxed looking Clinton was "sharing pizza" with Monica around then.

Is this the new lingo? They call it pizza nowadays?

[shield]

He's brilliant and he gets it. And the why these anti-american justices use international law...changing Americas values our Founders set forth.

[onyx]

Kyl is doing a marvelpus job.

WHY is FNC running Biden's segment?

[CharlesWayneCT]

We've been talking about how democrats interrupt whenever a republican is about to make a good point, to throw them off.

This morning a guy at work said the REPUBLICANS always interrupt because they can't stand hearing the truth.

I asked him for an example, giving him several examples from the hearing yesterday and the now-famous Bob Novak blowup on CNN.

[beyond the sea]

He's smarter with more personality than any other candidate I've heard of yet.

He's smarter and a better communicator than anyone I have ever seen in my 58 years. And, he is a very kind, calm and solid man. I almost feel like I am looking at a being from another world!

And his wife is a darling LADY!
