Drudge Report ^ | September 14, 2005

Exclusive Drudge sources in the U.S. Senate's Hart Building heard Democrat Sen. Joe Biden say to Judge John G. Roberts in a private conversation on the hearing room floor: 'You're the best I've ever seen before the committee'...

Developing...

Was Biden able to keep from drooling as he spoke?

[Soul Seeker]

And yet he's going to vote against? Tsk.

Admit it Biden. He's better than anyone you've ever known, including yourself, SITTING on the Committee as well.

That was Kennedy, Dodd and a waitress.

I always get Dodd and Biden confused. The fact that Ted Kennedy was involved, which has triggered a self protective mechanism in my brain that absolutely prevents the creation of any mental image of the event, makes it even more difficult to remember the name...

Obviously a misquote, I can't imagein Biden saying anything but "I'm the best!".

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Interesting. Who does the Chia Pet herb garden hair piece on top of Biden's head, btw? Looks like it could use a little more water.

" They are going to circle the wagons on the next nominee."


Bring it. Time for Beltway Conservatives to fight back. GWB should nominate Luttig as a middle finger to the Libs/MSM.

Where's John Kerry in all this?

Cambodia. But (shhh!) it's a secret.

[beyond the sea]

In that picture, I really don't think that they are looking or dealing with each other. They are talking to others.

[wimpycat]

I saw a quote in an article this morning where Biden said, "It's like pitching to Ken Griffey", describing how it was questioning Roberts.

[RWR8189]

I didn't think of that picture as being the exact moment of the exchange.

'You're the best I've ever seen before the committee'

Translation...I know what the best is. ME. And you're almost as good.

Try to be best
‘Cause you’re only a man
And a man’s gotta learn to take it

Try to believe
Though the going gets rough
That you gotta hang tough to make it

History repeats itself
Try and you’ll succeed

Never doubt that you’re the one
And you can have your dreams!

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

Fight ‘til the end
Cause your life will depend
On the strength that you have inside you

Ah you gotta be proud
starin’ out in the cloud
When the odds in the game defy you

Try your best to win them all
and one day time will tell
when you’re the one that’s standing there
you’ll reach the final bell!

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ho-how-ho-own

INSPIRING GUITAR SOLO

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

Fight ‘til you drop
never stop
can’t give up
Til you reach the top (FIGHT!)
you’re the best in town (FIGHT!)
Listen to that sound
A little bit of all you got
Can never bring you down

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!

Karate Kid? Danielson?

[pogo101]

Correct. Even Biden knows that when you're written up by liberal WaPo writer Dana Milbank as having been a schmuck on wheels Tuesday, it's time to Stop Digging.

"The fact that Ted Kennedy was involved, which has triggered a self protective mechanism in my brain..."

I'm envious, would save many meals.

[NickatNite2003]

Actually, what he said was:

"You a breast man?"
"We're sending Pete(Domenici)for fried chicken on M street!"

And on top of that, his mentor was Chief Justice William Rehnquist.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Plugs Biden tries to save face by complimenting the next Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Roberts reportedly told Plugs, "I'll be filibustering the court until they make the right decisions, Joe. And that means gettin' them on the side of me, Tony, and Clarence. Learn to live with it."
